The Old Time Cowboy Cures that Saved Hundreds of Cowboys... and Bacon Grease is One of Them!
I've been a chuckwagon cook for over thirty years, and out on those remote ranches, I'm not just the cook - I'm the doctor, dentist, and psychologist too. In this episode, Shannon and I share some of our favorite cowboy cures: how a pre-1982 penny helps a spider bite, why bacon grease belongs in every first aid kit, and the hot toddy recipe that's been quieting coughs since the cattle drive days. These old-time remedies have worked for generations, and we've got the stories to prove it.
