Hey, y'all looking for a good, quick and easy breakfast camping recipe
0:05
I am too. Folks, that ain't it, but stick around. I'm fitting to show you one that is a waffle, bacon, egg, and ham
0:13
Ooh, you're going to love it. Hey, thank y'all for stopping by
0:27
It is a great day. My name is Kent Rollins, and welcome to Cooking with Cowboy Kent
0:31
What do we do here? We make dishes that are simple, hearty, and easy to fix
0:37
but they will please the whole crowd. And if there is some new viewers out there
0:41
oh, let me put my arms around you and give you a hug. We are so glad you're here
0:45
Mother Nature has turned the light on. It has rose up over the hill, and we are fast approaching the pastime of breakfast
0:51
that it might nearly be brunch. But I'm always looking for an easy camping recipe
0:57
one pot dish all in the deal easy to do we're going to need a 12 inch dutch oven but if you
1:04
ain't got one you can do this in the house and just like always shan will have everything you
1:09
need to know in the little description down below but we have over there on old bertha
1:14
melted a whole stick of butter now i ain't wanting you to use it all but i am wanting you to use
1:20
about half of it and just pour it right in there and would you say that's half shan i need your
1:27
opinion. Yes. Okay. Shan is measured in metric liters and kilometers and she allows that that
1:34
is pretty close to half. Now folks, if Shan will pan around here everywhere just so y'all can see
1:41
because I want y'all to make sure that you don't see it because I've been looking for it and
1:46
an IHOP, any one here, and I do like a waffle. So you can use a waffle of any kind but I'm just
1:54
telling you, to get you some of them waffles that is frozen, let them thaw just a little
2:01
because they are the foundation of this great treat. I like to sort of tear them in half
2:07
so I can make sure that everybody fits in here well. And it'll take five to six to seven
2:13
waffles depending on what you're putting this in. We're going to put this in right in here
2:18
to make sure it fits. And you can get creative and cut them however you want. We're going
2:24
to set this aside for just a little bit. How many? No, it's not four. Six, yeah. That's how many
2:35
cackleberries we got today in a mixing bowl of some apparatus. Now, I need you folks to also
2:43
comment and let me know when you try these recipes, how they come out. Did you cook them while you was
2:48
camping? Did you cook them in the house? Did you cook them in the backyard? But remember, most of
2:52
did you share them with a friend or a neighbor? That's what it's about
2:56
So we gotta have some mayo. Y'all gonna make them light and fluffy
3:00
and they are gonna be some of that good but we ain got no spoon Sweat running off me whoo like a cow peeing off a 40 bluff on a flat rock
3:12
So, we have us a mayo spooning apparatus, and it calls for about a fourth of a cup
3:19
So, in she goes. That gnat, folks, would have eaten just fine, but I really don't like him
3:30
We're going to do about a half a cup of cream, heavy cream
3:36
What do you call it? A whisk-a-later. I would say that was smooth and creamy
3:45
At this point in time, we're going to have a little black pepper that is coarsely ground
3:52
a pinch of salt, and people asking, where do you get that fancy little wooden salt and pepper deal you have
3:59
Well, Sham's got that in the description down there as suggested products that we use
4:04
Let's give her one more stirring. Look here. We have that butter
4:10
We're going to pour some right across here like this. Next comes what
4:18
The egg cream mayo mixture. And hang on, folks. so I'm gonna run over here and get that fine neck skillet
4:28
full of bacon so we can put something in it. Be sure now the next video after this one
4:34
we're gonna be doing a review on this fine, fine neck skillet, so be sure and stick around
4:39
I like to drain the grease out, give everybody a good sprinkling
4:46
I like to cook this half done, but you can see I got busy and Ol' Bertha
4:50
decided she'd cook it nearly all the way done, but it'll still turn out just right
4:55
chopped ham with mine, you can use sausage, you can use chorizo, you can use whatever you
5:05
got on ham, but make sure that you have plenty of meat. You can just cover it up with bacon
5:10
more and more and more. This is about a cup of diced up ham. And I'm going to put it on
5:16
there and then I'm going to spread it out a little more to make sure that everybody is
5:21
well covered so when you dish down in there you're making sure you get some meat i've been to them
5:27
deals folks to where you're going to eat something and you reach in there and you get something and
5:31
they claim it has some meat in there and you can't find it that's what we call a mystery meat
5:35
ingredient you don't even know it's there so folks i'm going to let that sit there and rest just a
5:40
minute while i get this next topping ingredient ready to go we have just got through putting
5:46
We're putting together our little gravy concoction mixture here, which was two packets of just
5:51
peppered gravy mix. Don't go by the instructions it calls there for
5:56
Use a cup of cream and a cup of cool water. Stir it up, we're going to pour it right over this
6:02
It is going to become the topping layer of the scrumptious goodness So we going to just pour it all around here I want you to watch right here as I turn this around Did you see it
6:19
No, you did not. A Dutch oven does not have a knob or a timer that says, ding, I'm done
6:24
But remember, we've taught y'all how to cook in these deals. We've got some coals in Obertha
6:28
We're going to cook it on a tall trivet. Pretty low heat on the bottom
6:32
Pretty good heat on the top because it don't take much to get them waffles browned up right there
6:36
So y'all ready to eat? We can't eat till we get it done. So let's get after it. Oh, and I like to run over a beagle
6:46
For those of y'all who haven't met Bertha, this is her. Now, Shan, y'all know I love her. Oh my gosh, she is the best woman I ever seen
6:57
but this is the hottest woman I've ever seen. Be sure you shake them ashes out there
7:05
Remember, we've told you a lot about that because ash insulates, it don't cook
7:12
And today we're cooking with a little mixture of oak and mesquite
7:20
Folks, you've seen me dig them coals out of old Bertha. A little light around the bottom
7:25
bring them out away from your oven, just a little because we don't want to burn them eggs and them waffles that soak through there on
7:30
the bottom. You can go pretty heavy on the top because we can see the top. Ain't no breeze today
7:36
but we will still rotate to regulate heat as we go along. And cooking this probably ain't going to
7:40
take maybe 10 to 15 minutes in a Dutch oven to get this done, so stick around
7:57
It's time to check it. It is. As you can see, I got me a trivet over here for what
8:06
To put the lid on. Oh, looky there, what's happening. Them waffles is jumping up there
8:12
You can see them eggs, how they begin to set. It's still just a little jiggly
8:17
We're going to give it a rotation. We are nearly there on that bottom
8:22
We'll be able to take off that bottom heat there in a minute and just finish it on top
8:26
Now folks, I'm looking for that bottom to set up, them waffles don't have to cook long
8:32
but I want them to sort of poof up just a tad and that egg, you'll begin to see it set
8:36
it'll get that old yellow color, but it'll get a little springy to the touch and we can
8:40
probably come off that bottom at the time. I don't know if y'all know it or y'all got to deal with it in y'alls kitchen, but there's
8:47
a lot of creatures out here in Mother Nature's kitchen that tend to show up when you cook
8:52
especially if it's hot. So let's check it and see, uh huh, you can see them waffles is pooching
8:59
We're gonna go ahead and pull this off the bottom. Let that top go ahead and brown up
9:10
Make sure you check that heat when you bring it off so that top can go ahead and brown
9:13
and set up Okie dokie As you can see, folks, it didn't take long to really cook this deal
9:29
The waffles browned around the edge. Everything is sort of springy to the touch
9:33
The eggs set up there good. Them waffles will bubble up and try to jump out of there every once in a while on occasion
9:38
Just poke your air hole in them if you have to. Let them back down there. But it'll brown pretty easy on the top
9:44
That bottom don't take long to cook. Let it cool before you get a bite
9:49
because it'll burn the hair off of you, I promise. And I'm just going to see if it's..
9:54
You can see we got some ham, some bacon, some waffles, some egg
10:07
See that white gravy mix in there? Mm-mm-mm. now i'm going to address this to the southern folk everybody that growed up in my neck of the
10:19
woods and eat at them old greasy spoon diners that were some of the best breakfast you ever
10:22
eat in your life you remember them old buttermilk biscuits you used to get and they'd pour that
10:27
gravy on them and they'd sit there and soak it up and when you reached in there and took a bite of
10:31
that it's just a light and fluffy i think as shan would say maybe quiche like mixture going on
10:36
But folks, this is some fine dining right here. Get the waffle as the base, but it don't taste like waffle no more
10:44
It tastes sort of like a buttermilk biscuit that sits there and is soaked in that butter
10:48
All of it comes through the top, but then you top it back off with that bacon and ham
10:52
layer that gravy mixture on there. It's all your basic food groups you need at one time in a Dutch oven, and it's easy to fix
11:01
That's why I call it an easy camp breakfast, and it'll feed a lot of folk
11:05
I hope you enjoyed this. It was a little hot, humid, and a little bug infested at times as creatures were flying by here, there, and yonder
11:11
And some of them even bit me. But it's okay because it's worth it to get to share this with y'all
11:16
You can do it outside in the backyard. You can do it on a camping trip. You can do it for a breakfast anytime in the house
11:22
Now, remember, Shan will have everything you need in the little description below
11:26
Recipe everything. It'll always be there. But, folks, I got a little something special I want to say
11:31

11:45
Sort of like watching home. We tune in and watch y'all. So we appreciate it
11:49
