Jwirlwind,
here is a link to an ox tail stew i do on the egg. .. would work great in your dutch oven. . .its easy, but unique, and 5 hours in the egg imparts some great flavor to the meat and veggies. . . .

I just got a 12"deep dutch oven as part of a cast iron set that I bought at Sam's Club. The whole package cost me 15 bucks. I've subsequently spent over 300 bucks buying accessories (I'm sure everyone on the BGE forum understands that).

Jwirlwind,

If you get RFD TV on your cable or satellite, there are two good Dutch Oven Shows. "Dutch Oven and Camp Cooking" with C.W. Welch and "Campfire Cafe" with Johnny Nix. You'll learn a lot from them.

You can find C.W. Welch at ceedubs.com and Johnny Nix at campfirecafe.com.

Earlier this month I took a two day camp cooking seminar with Johnny Nix. It was very informative and lots of fun. (I'll try to post a picture of Johnny, my son, Sam, and I -- we'll see how that goes).



Here's a recipe for Honey Marmalade Loaf that we cooked in the camp.

Ingredients
2 cans biscuits
4 Tbsp butter
1/2 c honey
1 c orange marmalade
1 c pecans (chopped)

Directions
Cut each biscuit into 4 pieces. Place in greased Dutch oven. Melt butter in saucepan. Stir in honey and marmalade. Pour over biscuit pieces. Sprinkle with pecans. Bake for 15-20 minutes over fire on medium hook. Remove and cover with top coals, continue baking until golden brown. Garnish with sliced oranges. Serve hot or cold. Oven directions: 350° for 25 to 30 minutes.

Have fun with your Dutch Oven.
