That looks great. I like that cut of pork rib slow cooked like that. Never done it his way before, but whenever it's time to make a new batch of marinara sauce, a bunch of those kind of ribs go into the pot from the start and, after an hour and half of simmering, I make a meal out of them. Always "falling off the bones" tender and juicy.

Video's OK, if you turn off the sound.

I've been using one for over 40 yrs. Can't be beat! Use your cooking imagination!

Made Thanksgiving dinner in the mountains once. Cut up a ten pound turkey. Criss crossed carrots and celery in the bottom, put turkey legs and thighs next, breast (one piece )on top. Season as you like, added some chicken stock. Cooked for a couple hours. Made mashed potatoes, green beans, rolls, and a dessert to go with it. Forrest ranger stopped by to check campfire permits and just shook his head.

I am surprised the ranger did not wangle an invite.
It sounds good to me.

He turned it down. .....WTF?

Apple/plum cobbler with bourbon sauce, Thanksgiving dinner at 7000ft?

You would not have gotten shed of me so easily.

'Most likely the rangers are "stuck" with that same rule many govt. employees that are employed as those who must "enforce" laws that they can't accept any "gratuities" from the public 'cause nobody in their right minds woulda turned down a dinner invitation to that yummy sounding dinner!!! N'est pas?!?

That turkey sounds amazing.

Give it a try. Discard carrots and celery, add some cornstarch or flour to thicken for the gravy. Doesn't come out roasted, but what the heck, you still get one hell of a meal in the trees.



Only need about a cup or (1/2 inch?) of stock to keep it moist.
