Meat Medley

This is a very easy main course or campfire snack. It requires very little supervision once you get it cooking. If you're worried about your cholesterol levels, you might as well stop reading. However, if you're up for a carnivore's delight, you might want to give this a try.



Recommended Ingredients:
1 package pepperoni
1 package cocktail wieners
3 hot dogs
1/4 lb Polish sausage (kielbasa)
cooking oil

Directions:
Cut kielbasa and hot dogs into small pieces or slices. Pour a little cooking oil into the bottom of the Dutch oven - just enough to coat the bottom, but not so much that the meat is going for a swim. Since you want to fry the meat more than bake it, put about 12 coals below the oven and 13 on top. Stir every ten minutes and rotate the oven and lid. Depending on the type of meat you use, this will probably be done in about 30 minutes. Make sure that all meat, especially pork, is cooked thoroughly.

This made enough meal-sized servings for about 6 people. If served as a campfire snack, you should be able to feed about 20 people.
