New Dutch Oven for the rig
I got a 4qt Oven for my rig at Christmas. Used it last week end to make scratch biscuits. Came out perfect.....'course I had me a D/O expert with me to guide me along. A two cup biscuit recipe just fits in the 4qt.

- Cold shortening is the key to biscuits. The old timers mixed the ingredients in the top of the flour sack.
I use wood and never charcoal. Use a lot of top heat. - 1 cup unbleached flour
1 cup whole wheat white flour
2 tablespoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 egg
1/3 cup shortening
1 cup buttermilk. I use unsweetened soy with 2 tablespoons vinegar.
Eight coals under
Twelve on top
Moved the coals to the top after 10 minutes
Then gave it ten minutes more - Congratulations! Time for you to visit some Dutch Oven Gatherings. :c

- The only thing better than a new Dutch, is an old one.
Now the cat is out of the bag and you will be eating better for the rest of your life.
