Texas Cattle Drive Baked Beans
Violet Peacock & Cheyenne Ranger SASS L #48747
This is a recipe that is great tasting the first day and even better the next. A bowl of beans along some homemade cornbread will satisfy the heartiest appetite.
The portions listed are for a large oval roasting pot. Adjust as necessary.
Ingredients
4 cans commercial baked beans, we like Bush Baked Beans
2 cans diced or crushed tomatoes
1 ½ cups dark brown sugar
2 cups molasses
1 can tomato paste
1-2 pounds of bacon
1 large yellow onion, 10-15 or Vidalia are what we look for
1 package shredded carrots, can use carrot chips or whole carrots chopped
1 large garlic bulb
1-2 jalapeno peppers
1-2 green peppers, optional
3 Tbsp Cumin
3 Tbsp Paprika
Salt
Water as needed
Directions
Put the oval roasting pot over medium heat
Cut the bacon into 1 inch stripes
Cook bacon till brown, drain and save
Save some of the grease, enough to fry the onions plus other vegetables.
Dice the onion green peppers and garlic, if using whole carrots chop these
De-seed, remove the inner membrane and chop the jalapeno peppers. Do not use your fingernails to remove the membrane or the seeds—the juice will find its way into your eyes
Add all to the hot grease. Cook till translucent (for a slightly different taste you can add everything but the onions and bacon when the tomatoes go in without cooking them first)
Again drain off the grease, save the vegetables
Now return the vegetates and bacon to the pot over medium-high heat
Add the baked beans
Add the crushed/diced tomatoes
Add the tomato paste.
Add dark brown sugar
Add molasses
Add half the Cumin and Paprika and check for taste. Add entire amount if you desire
Salt to taste
Add enough water to bring level to within 2 inches of top of roaster
Bring to a boil and reduce to a simmer
Stir occasionally and for first 3 hours keep adding water as needed
Final 2-3 hours allow beans to thicken, don’t add water but do keep stirring
Allow to sit until it’s cool enough not to blister you tongue and mouth.
Then grab a slice or two (or ten) of corn bread and a bowl of beans and enjoy.
Might want to stay down wind of the herd for a spell.

I use Hi-tek bullets from Missouri Bullet Company. They are a red brown color. I am happy with them. Are they the same or different than powder coated bullets?
different

I could live in that!
course the cost of batteries would make it necessary as I wouldn't have a house any more

TRR will have its monthly match Feb 4-5.
Six stages each day and the nicest people you would ever want to meet on a Honda (gotta be old to make sense of this one)
Details, directions and 'other stuff' can be found at http://www.thunderriverrenegades.com/
We're directly across from the Texas Renaissance Festival which is above Tomball and Magnolia, TX
Weather is going to be beautiful and you can't get much better than shooting 'cowboy' in the early Spring in The Republic

We dress like we did when we were 12 years old and have nicknames; live like it was the 1880s.
I was silly when silly wasn't cool

Sometimes I don't even know what I'm trying to say
Since I'm old with a questionable back I found that the weight of the cartridges on the gun belt will be noticeable by the end of the match.
I'm the guy that will also stage my pistols in my gun cart between stages--pretty much anything that will removed weight from the old back
Again just my 2¢

headed out today to load up some hotter loads; basically take my rifle loads and use the pistol bullet.
Match is this weekend so we'll see.
Good thing I'm not counting on these two pistols as my main match ones. Ruger OMV have never had a problem with the loads so why change what isn't broken? (at least in those revolvers?)

nicely done
what caliber?
see someone told you, or you knew it already, not to use brass cases in bullets. Yea, I know it's fine for a day or two but I'm known to forget from month to month

probably similar to how the Army missed this one: Nidal Hasan, a U.S. Army major and psychiatrist, fatally shot 13 people and injured more than 30 others--Fort Hood
