Regarding “Redneck Recipes and Camping Food” —
If there was a book available, I would almost certainly buy it. But having to bounce all over the web just to check out the recipes is a real pain.
Anyone considering combining all them together into a physical book, or at least one web site?
Amen! I agree with you.
I like these recipes- gotta try the Ba-Cone for breakfast sometime soon. It looks convenient and tasty.
Camping cookbook what a great idea. How can I get one.
