Feel free. I like cookies.

This is the guy that got me into dutchoven coking abou 10 yrs ago. i have been hooked eversince. He has a hole wall full oF awords he has won. This is a photo of him at one of the cooking contests.

Dutch oven apple cobbler. I do apple my fav. In 12 in oven i use
4 box white cake mix.
1 large jar apple sause
4 cans apple pie filling
1/4 stick butter.
Place tin foil in oven and grease with butter, pour in 1 box cake mix covering bottom. Pour in apple sause smooth out to cover bottom. 1 more box cake mix, all 4 cans pie filling. And last 2 boxes of cake mix. Place dabs of butter on top in about 3 in spacing around top cook for about 350 for half an hour till top is golden brown, will hear apples gergling. Do not add water or milk it will make soggy, there is enough moisture in apple sause and pie filling . This is how i do it with the boyscouts. Its quick and easy and the cake mix gives it a sweet tast. Will post how to do from scratch later.

Tigger, I am going to be busy now, your recipe will feed the entire Scout Troop while I cook for 1 most of the time. Hope I can reduce it down to manageable portions for about 4 to 6 servings. Nothing like a great piece of Cobbler with your morning coffee.

if you just want one serving. I did this with the boys once and sarah does it all the time. Get empty soup cans clean them put a little butter in the bottom , a nough cake mix to cover the bottom, put in a few apples from the pie filling with little apple sause. And cake mix on top, two dabs of butter, cover with tinfoil and set in fire coals , or in your oven. If i rember corectly ,one box cake mix, 1 can pie filling, apple sause. Will make about 4 soupe can coblers. Just dont get too hot in fire botttom will burn vary easy. Sarah makes them all the time. If you only want to make one, you can keep the cake mix in a container in the fridg, the apple pie filling will keep about a week in the fridg, but take it out of the can and put it in tupawair container ti will keep its flaver better. Posted a photo oF them when we did them with the boys last fall. Nothing like a hot can of cobbler on a cold day!

Im so used to cooking for a large groop. We have 12 boys , 5 leaders, and soe times parents show up. Got to be prepaired. I have a radio comunications shelter i picked up, and i converted it into a mess kitchen for the scouts. It has 12volt , 110 volt, and two solor panels on the roof to charge the batterys, two 6 volt military deep cycle wired to 12 volt witch poweres the inverter for the 110. It can run almost 2 days without a recharge, but with the solar panels up i used it 1 week and never lost power.

Thank ya much, Tigg.

Hay Tigger, those cookbooks are cool. I am still reading the one with the recipes, lot's of stuff in there. Thanks again.

your most welcome. There is a lot of info in them. Sarah loves the cook book you sent her. I think she has cooked just about everything in it. She has been doing most of the cooking for grandma & grandpa. Grandmas feet are getting rilly bad they swell up from sugar. She cantbe on her feet long so sarah kinda took over the kitchen. And now that she can drive she does a lot of the shopping too. Im so proud of how she turned out. I just hope she outgrows this crap with her pink hair soon!

Sleep and scissors can be your friend, not to sure about Sarah tho when she wakes up and it's gone!!! :D:D:D

she would never speek to me again. She tryed to put red strreeks in her beautiful blond hair and when she washed it it turned her hair pink. And she liked it.

Can you say...blood curdling scream?? :D
