      It was my uncle Genio who taught me how to be a cowboy. He was my grandmother's youngest brother. He never married.
      I spent most summers with him helping him out on the ranch. He always carried a cast iron skillet in his saddle bag. We never took meat with us. He would make sure we brought tortillas, potatoes, eggs and a few other things along. Meat we killed while we were out there. Jack Rabbit. A small pig, Prarie chickens, squirrel. Or we would fish for perch or catfish. I am so glad I spent so much of my youth growing up around that man. Learned so much. Now I pass all that I learned from him to my grandkids. There was a phase Genio used when he was teach me something. "This is an old Indian recipe I learned from an old Indian." Or, "This is an old Indian trick I learned from an Old Indian."
      It was his way of making sure I paid attention. I use those phrases on my grandkids.

    I learned to cook simple things at a young age and my wife and I taught our kids the same as well as have them make their own beds and lunches for school by the time they were six years old. As a firefighter I did a lot of cooking at home when I was off duty. I have four girls and a boy, who is the youngest. My wife passed on from cancer when the kids were young and I can definitely say it is better to have a partner to go through life with. Someone to share the good times and hard times and sunsets with. The kids are all grown now and on their own and I have a few grandchildren now. When my kids were young one of their favorite requests for me to make is what they called “wine chicken”. Just chicken with wine poured over(or bear) a few veggies and cover with foil and put in the oven. On Saturdays many times their request of me would be what they called an “I-Hop” breakfast. That was bacon, eggs, pancakes with bananas and strawberries. When you have a five year old with a hopeful smile on their face and tone in their voice as for “wine chicken” or an I-Hop breakfast, you just can’t say no.

    I love your comment about guys needing to learn how to cook. I am the youngest of 9 children, with the 7 oldest being sisters. I learned to cook, clean, sew & mend, and do all the stuff that I needed to survive. College was a lot easier and less expensive when I didn't have to pay to have these things done (or worse yet, they DIDN'T get done). One of my first challenges was in Junior High. I tore my pants on a sharp edge of the food table in the lunch room. I went down to the Home Economics room and the teacher asked if I wanted to sit in the closet without my pants while she fixed them. I said, "No thanks, I can fix it myself." I took the sewing patch kit into the back room with me, and fixed up the jeans myself. The tear was about 7 inches long, and I really did a butcher job of a repair, but I had the satisfaction of doing it myself.

    Well you had me when you said that you vow to look after your wife, and there are times when she won't be able to cook - good on you for that. You are very accurate when you said that everyone needs to be able to cook a simple meal, and a simple meal certainly beats any of those freeze dried camp meals that they sell. Here in Australia, we usually have a 4x4 with us and either an ice box or a fridge, and lots of us eat very well when we are camping. Having a fire and a camp oven and cast iron is all that you need. We definitely have a roast of some kind with vegies every time we go away. Cheers mate....and good on you about self-sufficiency, right on!

    I got a good one for you to try. You'll like this. I mix store bought lunch ham, the rectangle kind, dice it up and mix it with eggs and cheese in a container you know. Then I dice potatoes bout salad size and some diced white onion. I put them in a skillet with water
    , Salt and margarine, not alot of water just enough to keep the potatoes from browning too much. I cover it for a little bit. Once that's done I take the lid off and dump in the egg mix and then cover it again but not too long. I check it and stir it till the eggs are done and it's pretty great. I learned that on an Indian reservation in Washington State. I think you should make more campfire cooking videos. I like yours better because yours relate to everyone. Few people have the resources to have a wagon train kitchen but everybody has rocks, Tupperware, wood, and a skillet. Thanks for the video.

    I am in the UK and my two teenage (now young adult) sons absolute favourite meal I made them was a big breakfast in a skillet just like that served straight on the table in the pan stood on a wooden board. They especially liked it coming in the evening when coming home from a hard game of rugby. Sausage, bacon, beans, fried eggs, hash browns. All in one and cooked sequentially so it all gets cooked just right and not burnt. Takes some skill and timing and it helps if you have a lid to keep the heat in and so you can turn the heat at the bottom of the pan down.
