Pork hatch green chilis an onion a couple cloves of garlic. chicken broth Take your pork cut into bite size chunks flour, salt and pepper. and start it frying in a pan in your soup pot start your chicken broth going , can be water and bouillion. Chop up at least a cup of roasted greem chilis whatever heat range you like aneheims are the mildest. btw greenchilis and jalapenos are not the same thing dont use jalepenos chop up the onion and garlic also throw it all in the pot and start it boiling. after your pork is browned well remove it from the pan and into the pot and make a roux, enough so that your chili is nice and thick and add it to the pot let it all cook together a while and enjoy. optional ingredients chili Beans, mixed vegtables, potatoes. Roasting your chilis can be done over a fire on a grill, under a broiler or evn on top of a gas burner, the idea is to roast until the outer skin turns black then you put them in a plastic bag and let them sweat until cool the peeling will then come right off, dont use them raw or unpeeled. pull off the stem and remove the seeds also and chop them up..add about a cup let it cook in then taste for heat add more if you like more heat. This recipe was told to me by an old hispanic friend may he rest in peace it comes from new mexico region where they grow alot of the chilis here Hatch green chilis are the best. it has no exact quantities you just put in what you think is a good portion , a typical butt roast will make about a gallon. Same with the garlic and onions the thickness of the stew is all up to you i have seen it made thin and watery and thick like a gravy, i prefer mine thickerer but not gravy thick. I also add such things as mixed veagtables, or chili beans, potaotes do well in it but dont tell ok thats a gringo thing lol. Next morning if there is any left you have huevos rancheros. Two nice fried eggs smothered in the green chili with a tortilla and sour cream. the bigest thing to know about mexican cooking is that it is highly adaptable to ingredients, easy to make and always delicious. Its truely home cooking at its finest.

It get cleaned quite regularly , as I'm always doing marinated or satay beef/lamb or chicken skewers . Thats messes up the grill a bit.

A really good recipe to add some flavor and oils to the process i use on deer especially. Take your roo steak and tenderize it with a meat tenderizer/hammer looking thing and flatten it out good then roll it up with a piece of good smoked bacon, use toothpicks to keep it rolled up, the bacon should go length wise so it rolls around the outside as well as inside of the steak.. Flour ithe rolls then brown them off in a skillet. Place them in a baking pan and add a good mushroom soup, either canned or homemade and bake until tender. These are awesome make plenty of the gravy/soup and serve with some mashed spuds. Out side we make them in a dutch oven, brown them in the oven then add the soup. Speaking of dutch ovens do you have any? The top of the line for outdoor cooking, you can bake, fry, boil, roast, or about any other cooking process with one over an open fire.

Contributing Member fredk Posted March 30, 2022 Contributing Member Report Posted March 30, 2022 I used to use an old metal biscuit box for my oven when I cooked fish at the beach after catching them Dig hole, light fire in hole, scape out some of the fire, put biscuit tin into hole on top of fire, put rest of fire on top of box lid, then cover with sand. Hopefully, having remembered to put cleaned and gutted fish wrapped in aluminium foil inside of box, along with a few small taties and onions Continue fishing, then remember dinner should be cooked then spend ages trying to remember just where you buried the tin oven, searching with a small battery flashlight which is about to go out - here sea fishing is done in darkness of twilight to dawn Quote Al speling misteaks aer all mi own werk..

Camping out and hunting as a family, the large 24 was the one we used to bury most often witha huge roast and all the fixins, potaoes carrots onions etc, man after being buried all day cooking when you pop the lid off the smell is out of this world after agood day in the country. THey are some of the best outdoor cooking equipment there is.

They might fetch around the $2000- mark on the o/s black market, if thats the case there was a million bucks in my paddock. They are a pest , destructive, rip the shite out of the trees, sometimes cause power black outs etc....and they're protected. go figure? And the noise is deafening. I have ear plugs next to my bed. And never look up when they fly over you. The council hire licenced " removalists" if they get a lot of complaints. Right now, as I type, they making a bloody racket at the back of our house. But to stay on topic of food, , I have heard some of the oldies eating them in the very early days. Making pies out of them . Taste like chicken I guess . I've heard of pigeon pies as well.

But the cup thingy's don't have anything to stand them up in as you fill them , so I use our coffee cups . Full of mince, vegies etc. , I fill the taco cups with taco mix , cheese and so on , but there was a little left over taco mix, , not quite enough to fill more taco cups, so I just put the remaining taco mix directly in the coffee cups and we ate it with tea spoons. Have I just invented a new trend here ? Eating out of a cup? It seemed silly eating taco mix from a coffee cup, but we all bloody enjoyed it, so tasty. We eat/drink soups out of cups ?
