Jack was invited to speak about Dutch oven cooking to the local chapter of Back Country Horsemen last night. In addition to the Ode to the Dutch Oven poem by Bruce Kiskaddon, he shared some history and lore.
For example, did you know the rim on the lid was supposedly invented by Napoleon’s cook because the Emperor did not appreciate ashes in his food? Or that the legs on the bottom that allow it to stand in a bed of coals were supposedly added by Paul Revere?
