SCOUTMASTER WOODS' TENDERFOOT CHILI

Scoutmaster Woods' Tenderfoot Chili image

This hearty version of our chile was developed to feed a patrol of eight hungry Boy Scouts. The recipe uses every ounce of every can and uses packaged measurements so there is no room for error in cooking and no leftovers. Accompany this excellent pinto bean chile con carne with dutch oven corn bread or camp-made deep fried sopapillas and honey-butter. Top off the meal with a cranberry-orange juice cooler.

HOMESTEAD COWBOY BEANS

Homestead Cowboy Beans image

I have an enormous family and all of the men go trail riding several times a year and these beans are one of the things they look forward to. My aunts and I put together their favorite combination several years ago, and have it ready at their camp, and they are some happy cowboys! You can mix different beans to your liking (lima, kidney, etc.), but the boys in our family like this mixture the best.
