Firewood for the weekend
|
|
My new tent
|
|
We cooked on the grill and in the
pit
|
|
Our view of the lake. We were up on
this ridge.
|
|
If you look closely, you'll see a
hole...
|
|
This is around 1pm on Saturday. I'm
getting ready for dinner.
|
|
We marinated one roast in some sort
of marinade, and the other (right) in a spicy tomato mixture.
|
|
Nobody was around us... we were the
only ones to camp! It was awesome!
|
|
|
|
|
|
Gathering the hot coals for the hole
|
|
Hot coals and hot rocks. We lined
the bottom with rocks...
|
|
More coals...
|
|
So we cooked our roast for 4 hours
in the hole. Oh, and that's the wood we used to keep warm for the
remainder of the day/night.
|
|
|
|
Our campsite is on the top of that
hill
|
|
|
|
But the sunset is cool...
|
|
David threw that rock over the limb
to attach a "working" light
|
|
It's about 7:30. So the roast has
been cooking for 4 hours...
|
|
|
|
|
|
So this is Sunday... do we look
redneck or what (or do I???)
|
|
|
|
So David and I pulled this from Oklahoma to Texas...
man, did we get some funny looks!
|
|
Deer... we saw a lot of deer and
turkeys.
|
|
|
|
|
Saturday "morning" cooking
Foil Packs
|
|
|
|
|
|
Jason digging the hole
|
|
Jason bought a pork roast - we
decided to cook it for our Saturday dinner. Now everyone knows a roast
should be "slow cooked."
|
|
|
|
This is basically how my Saturday
went... we sat around cooking the roast, drinking beer, and having great
conversations.
|
|
The hole...
|
|
|
|
|
|
In goes the pork roasts...
|
|
Then we covered it with the dirt.
This was around 3:30...
|
|
David discovered there is a problem
with his boat axle. Another reason we decided not to go fishing (besides
the cold temps and wind!)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Determining if it's done
|
|
Ta Da...
|
|
David's bearings
in the axle were toast. We decided to put a trailer
on a trailer with a boat.
|
|
This just cracks me up...
|
|
Taking it all in...
|
|
|
|
|
These are Bison foil packs
|
|
|
|
After Friday night, this is how much
we had left to burn. It was 28 degrees the night before.
|
|
Me preparing the pork roast
|
|
Me showing off the ingredients...
and "technique"
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Pretty dang deep...
|
|
|
|
Covering it up with hot coals
|
|
|
|
All of the wood is gone...
|
|
Lake Eufala
|
|
|
|
I was trying to take pics of deer near our camp.
|
|
|
|
More light to dig out the roast
|
|
Here's one...
|
|
Does that look good or what???
|
|
Jason likes it
|
|
|
|
Strapping it on...
|
|
Oh, and I found a rock shaped like
the shape of Oklahoma...
"OK!!!"
