Original Cowboy Cookbook

Original Cowboy Cookbook by Wes Medley. plastic_comb edition. ISBN: 9780963365101.

The old-time cowboy cooking is definitely a lost art! I think it is a lost art because most of the old-time cowboy cooks who cooked for the trail drives, bunkhouses, and cook shacks were men and they never wrote anything down. As time went on, there came an end to the trail drives, saloons that served meals, and ranch life became more commercialized food. Therefore, we came upon a time of the lost art of this original cowboy cooking and entered an age of the modern-day cooking, which doesnt come close to comparing with the savory taste of old-time cowboy cooking.
