My grandma did everything for my grandpa. Well guess who died first, her. Don't be like him. Screw gender roles, every man and woman should learn a little of everything when possible.
Forget the cooking. What I got from this man is more nutritious than the breakfast. It is his philosophies. Take care of yourself and/or your wife. Keep it simple. Be self sufficient. We are so used to having other people doing everything for us. What a fountain of wisdom!!!
I've made breakfast tacos thousands of times in my lifetime, still there's something about watching a fella cook over a camp fire that is so relaxing. Thanks for sharing sir.
Same. Building and tending a camp fire is my favorite part of real-life camping, along with outdoorsman shows like this. Puts me at ease. Can't explain the mechanism, but it does, and it is what it is!
It was my uncle Genio who taught me how to be a cowboy. He was my grandmother's youngest brother. He never married. I spent most summers with him helping him out on the ranch. He always carried a cast iron skillet in his saddle bag. We never took meat with us. He would make sure we brought tortillas, potatoes, eggs and a few other things along. Meat we killed while we were out there. Jack Rabbit. A small pig, Prarie chickens, squirrel. Or we would fish for perch or catfish. I am so glad I spent so much of my youth growing up around that man. Learned so much. Now I pass all that I learned from him to my grandkids. There was a phase Genio used when he was teach me something. "This is an old Indian recipe I learned from an old Indian." Or, "This is an old Indian trick I learned from an Old Indian." It was his way of making sure I paid attention. I use those phrases on my grandkids.
I love your comment about guys needing to learn how to cook. I am the youngest of 9 children, with the 7 oldest being sisters. I learned to cook, clean, sew & mend, and do all the stuff that I needed to survive. College was a lot easier and less expensive when I didn't have to pay to have these things done (or worse yet, they DIDN'T get done). One of my first challenges was in Junior High. I tore my pants on a sharp edge of the food table in the lunch room. I went down to the Home Economics room and the teacher asked if I wanted to sit in the closet without my pants while she fixed them. I said, "No thanks, I can fix it myself." I took the sewing patch kit into the back room with me, and fixed up the jeans myself. The tear was about 7 inches long, and I really did a butcher job of a repair, but I had the satisfaction of doing it myself. . I also don't think you're trying to be like Kent Rollins, but I will say you look and sound a lot like actor Ed Bruce.
I love the fact that you’re telling young people to learn to cook. I was grateful my mom and dad both taught me how to cook, do laundry, banking, general house repairs and many other life skills… which passed on to my kids.

Quite a few Iranians around my area in Australia. It is great that men are still allowed to be men in many countries. I worked with a Pakistani most of 2022 and he was very polite and helpful. He told me that the people in some areas of Pakistan are poor but very honest. He often wore a pair of jeans to work that looked new. They were 7 years old and Pakistani made without a thread missing.
Kent Rollins is terrific, but not everyone has a Big Bertha, or the smokers that he has. Thanks for showing us a very simple, yet delicious breakfast over a simple fire.

I learned to cook simple things at a young age and my wife and I taught our kids the same as well as have them make their own beds and lunches for school by the time they were six years old. As a firefighter I did a lot of cooking at home when I was off duty. I have four girls and a boy, who is the youngest. My wife passed on from cancer when the kids were young and I can definitely say it is better to have a partner to go through life with. Someone to share the good times and hard times and sunsets with. The kids are all grown now and on their own and I have a few grandchildren now. When my kids were young one of their favorite requests for me to make is what they called “wine chicken”. Just chicken with wine poured over(or bear) a few veggies and cover with foil and put in the oven. On Saturdays many times their request of me would be what they called an “I-Hop” breakfast. That was bacon, eggs, pancakes with bananas and strawberries. When you have a five year old with a hopeful smile on their face and tone in their voice as for “wine chicken” or an I-Hop breakfast, you just can’t say no.

This Man is wealthy in life's simple pleasures.It doesn't look like his cooking skills aren't to shabby as well. How refreshing to see. Thank you Sir! You made this old Hawaiian Man, Smile. Safe travels for You and Your family, Sir.
Finally!!!! How refreshing to see a natural and simple camp video. Im tired of watching nothing but advertising videos of what to buy and what not and rediculous videos of building a tent out of spaghetti, cardboard, underwear and every silly crap you can think of. This is my version of simple camping and cooking on a regular good ole skillet out in the open.
Hey brother just wanted to say thanks for all the words of wisdom. A lot of us young men don’t have fathers so your words are always very kind and firm. This bud light is for you. 💪🏼
I just came across the channel and man I can’t get enough! I’m 20 yrs old love anything and all things outside. When I grow older..I hope to be as knowledgeable and humble as you are. Cheers 🍺
I'm a trained chef and going camping for the first time, this video was awesome! I'm so making this for my family this weekend. Thanks for the awesome tips!
Reminds me of my late, great friend and neighbor, Paul Slagle, RIP my brother. Many a time out in the cedars and oaks, campfire and cooking, his philosophies were like yours. Slow and simple, this West Coast yankee learned the easy going Texas way from him. Real barbeque, not hamburgers and hot dogs, lots of front porch sitting and visiting...and campfire breakfast. Thanks for the memories.
Cooking over a campfire is not just for sustenance, its an experience that is unmatched. This is an incredible breakfast you have made here, but I can tell you... I have made simple packaged flavored oatmeal over a fire and it was THEE best damn oatmeal I have ever eaten in my life. The coffee or the tea, tastes better. Cant say what it is exactly that does this, and personally I don't know if I will ever figure it out, but it doesn't matter. Great family and lesson here, Sir. Thank you!
Could be the carbon from the wood. I remember my clothes smelling smokey whenever my uncle made steaks on the wood fire grill. They were some of the best meals that I had too!
I love to cook. It’s like meditation. Little things like cutting the ingredients in an order that makes best use of space and equipment and with the next step in mind. Each phase of the process is part of the whole meal. Then when it’s all done and plated I feel a sense of accomplishment and my reward is a tasty meal. Nothing better than that.
Brings back memories of camping with my grandparents. No RV just straight camping; Grandfather was a 32 year US Army Vietnam veteran. Taught me a lot on those trips.
That is my go-to breakfast, eggs n sausage, cheese in a tortilla, so satisfying and staves off hunger all morning. If I eat cereal I’m hungry in an hour again. High protein is the best. Good job Dewayne and Mama
Always love stumbling on your videos. Nothing beats simple camp meals. I used to think I loved making elaborate meals when I was younger and prepping things at the site. Then i realized how much time was wasted on and anxiety was created by making those kinds of meals. Prep before camping is KEY and keeping meals simple is KEY to enjoying your time away from the house and being out in nature. Something I wish I had realized sooner but intend to pass down to my kids.
Totally agree, no need for 20 spices. Hard to beat the real flavour of the food, abit of salt,white pepper and onion does alot. Best wishes from Northern Ireland.
Well you had me when you said that you vow to look after your wife, and there are times when she won't be able to cook - good on you for that. You are very accurate when you said that everyone needs to be able to cook a simple meal, and a simple meal certainly beats any of those freeze dried camp meals that they sell. Here in Australia, we usually have a 4x4 with us and either an ice box or a fridge, and lots of us eat very well when we are camping. Having a fire and a camp oven and cast iron is all that you need. We definitely have a roast of some kind with vegies every time we go away. Cheers mate....and good on you about self-sufficiency, right on!
I like this man's style, not trying to knock anyone just trying to offer a simple, plain, hearty way of cooking.Cause time is limited and life is hard enough. Great video sir.
66 yr old I have lived in the Cariboo of British Columbia / the Yukon. My momma taught me how to cook the Basic Breakfast , Lunch , Dinner and to bake bread 52 yrs ago I love the outdoors Fishing ( not a hunter) 9:01 ya need a good square wooden spoon to really scrape the edges and the bottom. You speak the truth Sir very Wise 14:58 love ❤ that family picture chow at the camp fire stay safe🙏
Every once in a while i run across something worth watching. I've got to tell you i enjoyed watching you do what i used to do all the time. Thanks for the memories Sir . They should teach this in schools.
Loved the video! As an avid camper, my favorite part of camping is cooking over a campfire or camp stove. I like to keep it simple and use simple ingredients also and the smell of outdoor cooking along wirh the pure pleasure of it is one of the greater pleasures of life to me.
I literally just finished off my breakfast burrito I cooked in my cast iron skillet when I came across your video. I love watching Kent Rollins. But surely RUclips is big enough for more than one source of campfire wisdom. And no doubt we need all we can get. Thank you!
I’ve been saying for years that these arts will die out if we don’t teach them. Thank you for doing a huge part in keeping the ways of our ancestors alive.
Let’s see, store bought eggs, store bought spices and butter, iron grates, cinderblocks, modern spatulas, store bought sausage, this is nothing like our ancestors, plastic containers, etc. this is like camping in your backyard.
@@DWilliam1 it’s a lesson on cooking over an open fire, not harvesting. And while you and I know how to do it, it’s something that’s being passed down to a younger generation less and less. Also, the sale of produce has been going on a long, long time. Again, I don’t think that’s the point of the video, though.
And yet there are 20 year olds out there that cannot boil water, have never been taught to cook an egg. Only a fool tries to teach those who already know everything.
@@DryCreekWranglerSchool There have always been “20 year old out there that cannot boil water…”. Just ask my ex-wife. Point is this has nothing to do with passing on lost skills. That idea is preposterous. It’s a guy cooking over a fire.
It does not matter where you come from, we all love our families and what the best for them. I'm proud to be an American and see how you integrate your simplicity to this crazy world we live in. Dwayne, please keep up you way of thinking and spread the god values.
Wow! Funny all the comments about cooking below. What Duane is talking about isn't about cooking...it's about living. Love your content, sir...just watched your excellent videos on cigars...and can't wait to watch more. We all need to take life like you do. Thanks for reminding us!
Good morning to you both. A friend of mine reuse’s small soda bottles to bring eggs to camp. He cracks them into the bottle through a funnel and if the yoke doesn’t break you can still pour them out one by one or shake the bottle for scrambled eggs. I love your channel and philosophy on life.
I usually fry eggs over medium. But I've learned with scrambled eggs (especially in large amounts) you need to stop when they're not quite done. Otherwise, you'll have overcooked rubbery eggs in a puddle of water. Yours looks perfectly done. I'd want a bit of spice of some kind.
The only thing is if you stir a lot you get tiny little pieces like him, stir less while cooking for more fluffy eggs, although I know it can be difficult on stainless and cast iron you can see it sticking
I can't even begin to tell you how much I like to eat a breakfast in the outdoors and I love the setting you are cooking in. I feel lucky to have been exposed to camping, outdoors and cast iron cooking. Love dutch oven cooking too.
I cook the same way here in Thailand onions and ground beef, sometimes sausage, sometimes bacon. Spices: oregano, ground chilli and then black pepper. Mentioning Kent Rollins, I also wondered why he uses so many ingredients for cowboy food that is supposed to be simple. I like your cooking style very much.🙂
Kent Rollins has forgotten what cowboy food is. It's always simple like the way this guy is doing it. I could survive a few days in 1881 because I don't feel comfortable having to depend on so much technology. I'd love to live a week where there aren't any annoying cars, planes everywhere and fools bumping into me because they're so busy typing on their cell phones.
I do all the cooking in my family whether in the kitchen, grill or camp. Friends and family are always amazed on how I can make fantastic meals and have everything ready at the same time. My mother taught me.
I really miss the men who raised me and you remind me of a few of them and also remind me of how blessed I am to have had it that way :) love and light to you and yours!! Prayers up! Comfort and strength to endure 😊
A video like this is just a down to earth common sense video that is great. So many Americans are short of common good sense today. I'm going a 👍 on this video. Thank you Brian from NC.
I use cast iron everyday in my cooking. That’s just my simple ways I guess. If it’s used right and kept seasoned I only have to wipe it out when done. A cast iron skillet and a Dutch oven can cook anything. And always use bacon grease on the iron stuff.
I love the grace, wisdom and respect you showed here, including to Rollins. I really enjoyed this video, and will have to try it (with the prep of ingredients) the next time we go camping.
Yum!!! Although not camping, this was my breakfast this morning (and I eat this breakfast while camping). As for the health nuts, I have to watch what I eat as I control my blood sugars without meds. What I do, is have this with a whole wheat tortilla...works for me as my blood sugar does not spike. As for the butter, it's a great fat that helps prevent blood sugar spikes and helps with cholesterol. Eggs are healthy with protein that helps with blood sugar spikes. Sausage, is another protein that helps blood sugar spikes. Cheese is not a problem. As for the onions, you are correct...the only time you really need to sauté the onions separately, is when you are adding them to a sauce. This is a great, healthy breakfast! I wouldn't hesitate to eat it every day. Thanks for the video!
I love how real you are. And I love this because not everyone can cook and showing someone how to cook a simple meal is perfect. Got to start somewhere. I started with grilled cheese and Mac and cheese. Then soup from soup mixes and hamburger helper. Now, I can cook from scratch and can also smoke and bake.
Just came across your channel. Once I clicked "play" I couldn't stop watching, and I think it was all the storytelling. Something good about a campfire and stories. Thanks and keep it up!
I got a good one for you to try. You'll like this. I mix store bought lunch ham, the rectangle kind, dice it up and mix it with eggs and cheese in a container you know. Then I dice potatoes bout salad size and some diced white onion. I put them in a skillet with water , Salt and margarine, not alot of water just enough to keep the potatoes from browning too much. I cover it for a little bit. Once that's done I take the lid off and dump in the egg mix and then cover it again but not too long. I check it and stir it till the eggs are done and it's pretty great. I learned that on an Indian reservation in Washington State. I think you should make more campfire cooking videos. I like yours better because yours relate to everyone. Few people have the resources to have a wagon train kitchen but everybody has rocks, Tupperware, wood, and a skillet. Thanks for the video.
You are so right ,everyone needs to know how to cook a meal ,simple ,filling and not complicated,both my grown men are great cooks and this momma is so proud ! My mountain man and his significant other do everything together,build ,fish ,hunt and live off the garden they grow…I’m proud to know they will make it together no matter what !
One of the best breakfasts I ever had was camping up in the Rocky Mountains and the guides who had the horses made us scrambled eggs with hatch green chilies from a can and cowboy coffee with simple Folgers. It's amazing how good things are when you keep it simple. Looking at Life through a prism of gratitude does wonders as well.
Hell I raised up eating off or a campfire on Huntin trips my dad and my uncle charley tought us boys how to cook just like what you’re doing and it’s not good till it’s got a tad of ash too lol ! Thanks for the memories bud
This is my roots from growing up that hit the memory button of growing up. My Mom and Dad did this kind of cooking on our camping trips and I tried to relay this to my kids. Great job!!!
I've been, pretty much, making this breakfast for years when I go camping. Only difference for me is that I'll have made steak burritos for dinner the night before and then take the leftovers the next morning and scramble some eggs into them. Two meals and about the same amount of work. Haven't starved in a long time!
Another great video and some helpful info. One of the things that got my wife interested in me in the beginning was that I had learned to cook over a fire. She liked it and found it manly; a tip for the young fellows 😉
Thank you! I just acquired and restored a rusty, crusty old 15" whopper of a cast iron skillet, and was looking for a good way to use it out camping, and at home, where I altered my fire pit to be a camp-cook set up. A friend made me a nice tripod for my dutch oven or blue enameled coffee pot. Skillet will go on a 6" high expanded metal trivet. I made the home version set up in case of emergency cooking, and discovered guests LOVE going over and ladelling out their own portion of our 4-bean baked bean dish, our the gravy for our biscuits 'n gravy. Thanks for being yourself!
I'm so glad I found your channel!! I grew up in the Peruvian Andes mountains and we lived completely off the grid, we used to cook over the flames though. The other day I cooked deer stew over the flames, it was very tasty but I didn't like how my camping cast iron dutch oven is stained now. Very important lesson I learned from you! "Don't cook over direct flames"
Sat, here in Ashland MT I was feeding cattle and horses hay and "cake" at - 28deg F, I could have used a simple hearty breakfast like this. Outstanding video keep'em coming!
This was a channel that was suggested to me because of Cowboy Kent Rollins. I have to say that after watching just a few minutes of your video, I immediately subscribed. We need need more “ real life” channels like yours. This generation coming up only knows technology. I grew up with self sufficiency.
Simple cooking, simple food. Best way to have it. Now thats my kinda food. Nice to see others still do the same. I make a simple eggs and diced fresh potatoes for hashbrowns.. very simple very tasty
My wife and I left be in a very wooded place and she likes to go out and cook on a campfire . I made a stainless steel expanded metal grill with legs or she can hang it on a stick over the fire if she wants to . A good cup of coffee boiled over a campfire is the beginning of a wonderful day in the fall . Especially if it’s cool enough to sit by a fire . We’ve done a lot of camping over the years and have had many many meals cooked over a campfire . We both can cook . I love to fry deer steak and make gravy and homemade biscuits over a campfire . That’s my favorite breakfast over a campfire . I enjoyed watching your video . I just subscribed to your podcast . Looking forward to seeing more of your videos . Have a blessed day !!
THANKYOU so much I am one of these people who can cook fine on a stove but balk on a real fire you have helped me so much by helping me think I can actually do it. Plus you include such gems of wisdom as… “You need to learn to simplify, part of slowing down part of Simplifying your life Is simplifying the basics and there’s nothing more foundational Nothing more simple than your diet what you eat”
I'm glad I came across your channel. Your relaxed tone, words of wisdom on family, & being self sufficient, along with the instructional camp fire cooking! Felt like I was there. Thx!🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
I am in the UK and my two teenage (now young adult) sons absolute favourite meal I made them was a big breakfast in a skillet just like that served straight on the table in the pan stood on a wooden board. They especially liked it coming in the evening when coming home from a hard game of rugby. Sausage, bacon, beans, fried eggs, hash browns. All in one and cooked sequentially so it all gets cooked just right and not burnt. Takes some skill and timing and it helps if you have a lid to keep the heat in and so you can turn the heat at the bottom of the pan down.
Hell, I do all the cooking. I won't say my wife is a bad cook but she did cure the dog from begging at the table

She makes the biscuits, I make the gravy! Been married 42 years, this side of Jesus, she's the best thing ever happened to me! Love your videos, I'm a first time viewer and subscriber, be watching for more stuff!👍
Cast iron cooking over an open campfire with a soothing voice and telling a story of his love for his wife. This Man is wealthy in life's simple pleasures.It doesn't look like his cooking skills aren't to shabby as well. How refreshing to see. Thank you Sir! You made this old Hawaiian Man, Smile. Safe travels for You and Your family, Sir.
His voice is super soothing
Finally!!!! How refreshing to see a natural and simple camp video. Im tired of watching nothing but advertising videos of what to buy and what not and rediculous videos of building a tent out of spaghetti, cardboard, underwear and every silly crap you can think of. This is my version of simple camping and cooking on a regular good ole skillet out in the open.
Much respect for what you’re putting out here. It’s a much needed mindset for the next generations
Hey brother just wanted to say thanks for all the words of wisdom. A lot of us young men don’t have fathers so your words are always very kind and firm. This bud light is for you. 💪🏼
Man this is the coolest reply I've ever read! John Garcia I hope you are doing well brother. Wishing you the best from Nashville, Tennessee.

@@johnbarrett5229 Thank you partner! Love all the way from Texas! God bless you and your family. ❤️
Spot on. All men need to know how to cook. That "my wife does all the cooking" or "I don't cook" arrogance is B.S. You're the man D!
Never compare lol but it awww when men can cook
If you’re old enough to live on your own, what guy doesn’t know how to cook? It’s not that difficult.
I just came across the channel and man I can’t get enough! I’m 20 yrs old love anything and all things outside. When I grow older..I hope to be as knowledgeable and humble as you are. Cheers 🍺
I'm a trained chef and going camping for the first time, this video was awesome! I'm so making this for my family this weekend. Thanks for the awesome tips!
"Manifest plainness, Embrace simplicity, Reduce selfishness, Have few desires." Thank you Sir for modeling good teaching.
Thank you for a very relaxing time spent around your campfire and the lessons and parted there in. God bless.
Reminds me of my late, great friend and neighbor, Paul Slagle, RIP my brother. Many a time out in the cedars and oaks, campfire and cooking, his philosophies were like yours. Slow and simple, this West Coast yankee learned the easy going Texas way from him. Real barbeque, not hamburgers and hot dogs, lots of front porch sitting and visiting...and campfire breakfast. Thanks for the memories.
Same here, Paul was the best
This felt like home. Especially in this crazy world. Thank you for this.
Cooking over a campfire is not just for sustenance, its an experience that is unmatched. This is an incredible breakfast you have made here, but I can tell you... I have made simple packaged flavored oatmeal over a fire and it was THEE best damn oatmeal I have ever eaten in my life. The coffee or the tea, tastes better. Cant say what it is exactly that does this, and personally I don't know if I will ever figure it out, but it doesn't matter. Great family and lesson here, Sir. Thank you!
Could be the carbon from the wood. I remember my clothes smelling smokey whenever my uncle made steaks on the wood fire grill. They were some of the best meals that I had too!
It could be the Chemistry of it?
Food taste better cooked over wood man thats facts
maybe it's that it's eaten outside and sizzling hot. Things taste different in the outdoor air and temperature contrasts also make it more satisfying.
@@maaz322 I like this answer
I love to cook. It’s like meditation. Little things like cutting the ingredients in an order that makes best use of space and equipment and with the next step in mind. Each phase of the process is part of the whole meal. Then when it’s all done and plated I feel a sense of accomplishment and my reward is a tasty meal. Nothing better than that.
Brings back memories of camping with my grandparents. No RV just straight camping; Grandfather was a 32 year US Army Vietnam veteran. Taught me a lot on those trips.
That is my go-to breakfast, eggs n sausage, cheese in a tortilla, so satisfying and staves off hunger all morning. If I eat cereal I’m hungry in an hour again. High protein is the best. Good job Dewayne and Mama
Have to agree, if I am feeling adventures I will add small cubed cooked and seasoned potatoes.
I do eggs and bacon usually cooked myself.
Recently tried some cheerios w/milk & sliced banana, 2 days in a row and then felt sick to my stomach
High protein and high fat.
love your attitude, I wish there were more people like you and for more young people to really focus on how simple it is to be happy!
Need more young people not to be democRATS
As a 26 year old I completely agree
That looks amazing. Great tips especially for young people. I’m 41 and have been cooking my adult life. It makes a big difference !
Always love stumbling on your videos. Nothing beats simple camp meals. I used to think I loved making elaborate meals when I was younger and prepping things at the site. Then i realized how much time was wasted on and anxiety was created by making those kinds of meals. Prep before camping is KEY and keeping meals simple is KEY to enjoying your time away from the house and being out in nature. Something I wish I had realized sooner but intend to pass down to my kids.
Totally agree, no need for 20 spices. Hard to beat the real flavour of the food, abit of salt,white pepper and onion does alot. Best wishes from Northern Ireland.
Well you had me when you said that you vow to look after your wife, and there are times when she won't be able to cook - good on you for that. You are very accurate when you said that everyone needs to be able to cook a simple meal, and a simple meal certainly beats any of those freeze dried camp meals that they sell. Here in Australia, we usually have a 4x4 with us and either an ice box or a fridge, and lots of us eat very well when we are camping. Having a fire and a camp oven and cast iron is all that you need. We definitely have a roast of some kind with vegies every time we go away. Cheers mate....and good on you about self-sufficiency, right on!
I like this man's style, not trying to knock anyone just trying to offer a simple, plain, hearty way of cooking.Cause time is limited and life is hard enough.
Great video sir.
66 yr old I have lived in the Cariboo of British Columbia / the Yukon. My momma taught me how to cook the Basic Breakfast , Lunch , Dinner and to bake bread 52 yrs ago
I love the outdoors Fishing ( not a hunter) 9:01 ya need a good square wooden spoon to really scrape the edges and the bottom. You speak the truth Sir very Wise
14:58 love ❤ that family picture chow at the camp fire stay safe🙏
Every young man in the world needs a man like this man in their life! God Bless, Dwayne and Momma!
Every once in a while i run across something worth watching. I've got to tell you i enjoyed watching you do what i used to do all the time. Thanks for the memories Sir . They should teach this in schools.
Loved the video! As an avid camper, my favorite part of camping is cooking over a campfire or camp stove. I like to keep it simple and use simple ingredients also and the smell of outdoor cooking along wirh the pure pleasure of it is one of the greater pleasures of life to me.
I'd love to see more of these campfire cooking videos. The food looks great and I enjoy hearing you tell your stories
You remind me of "Jack Bartlett" from the show "Heartland " and being homeless and doing primitive camping this was so helpful to us
I literally just finished off my breakfast burrito I cooked in my cast iron skillet when I came across your video. I love watching Kent Rollins. But surely RUclips is big enough for more than one source of campfire wisdom. And no doubt we need all we can get. Thank you!
I’ve been saying for years that these arts will die out if we don’t teach them. Thank you for doing a huge part in keeping the ways of our ancestors alive.
Let’s see, store bought eggs, store bought spices and butter, iron grates, cinderblocks, modern spatulas, store bought sausage, this is nothing like our ancestors, plastic containers, etc. this is like camping in your backyard.
@@DWilliam1 it’s a lesson on cooking over an open fire, not harvesting. And while you and I know how to do it, it’s something that’s being passed down to a younger generation less and less. Also, the sale of produce has been going on a long, long time. Again, I don’t think that’s the point of the video, though.
And yet there are 20 year olds out there that cannot boil water, have never been taught to cook an egg. Only a fool tries to teach those who already know everything.
@@DryCreekWranglerSchool There have always been “20 year old out there that cannot boil water…”. Just ask my ex-wife. Point is this has nothing to do with passing on lost skills. That idea is preposterous. It’s a guy cooking over a fire.
@@james0000 I agree with you. The premise for this video is hysterical. It’s a guy cooking an artery clogging breakfast over a campfire. LOL
It does not matter where you come from, we all love our families and what the best for them. I'm proud to be an American and see how you integrate your simplicity to this crazy world we live in. Dwayne, please keep up you way of thinking and spread the god values.
Nothing better than a scrambled egg, sausage and a warm tortilla cooked outside! Yummo
That"s right.😅 jajaja Love how you speak regarding having a great meal.👌
This is what my sweetheart cooked for breakfast this morning. I love the heck out of her.
Wow! Funny all the comments about cooking below. What Duane is talking about isn't about cooking...it's about living. Love your content, sir...just watched your excellent videos on cigars...and can't wait to watch more. We all need to take life like you do. Thanks for reminding us!
Good morning to you both. A friend of mine reuse’s small soda bottles to bring eggs to camp. He cracks them into the bottle through a funnel and if the yoke doesn’t break you can still pour them out one by one or shake the bottle for scrambled eggs.
I love your channel and philosophy on life.
Wearing spurs for breakfast....classic!
I usually fry eggs over medium. But I've learned with scrambled eggs (especially in large amounts) you need to stop when they're not quite done. Otherwise, you'll have overcooked rubbery eggs in a puddle of water. Yours looks perfectly done. I'd want a bit of spice of some kind.
The only thing is if you stir a lot you get tiny little pieces like him, stir less while cooking for more fluffy eggs, although I know it can be difficult on stainless and cast iron you can see it sticking
Add a couple tablespoons of water or milk and cook scrambled eggs on low and add cheese and seasonings half way through. Delicious, soft scramble.
@@johanalong2910That’s how I do it👌🏽
😮who's cleaning the skillet
He needs to add about 3-4x more butter right before he adds the eggs. The secret with eggs is always more butter.
Great video. Something I always wanted to do since I moved to Wyoming. Thanks alot. Take care
❤ yep that's the same thing Dick Gregory said we are addicted to taste or seasoning 😊
I can't even begin to tell you how much I like to eat a breakfast in the outdoors and I love the setting you are cooking in. I feel lucky to have been exposed to camping, outdoors and cast iron cooking. Love dutch oven cooking too.
Dutch ovens are the best!!!!!! Try baking bread in there while outdoors!
This is just what I need. Simple old school.
I cook the same way here in Thailand onions and ground beef, sometimes sausage, sometimes bacon. Spices: oregano, ground chilli and then black pepper. Mentioning Kent Rollins, I also wondered why he uses so many ingredients for cowboy food that is supposed to be simple.
I like your cooking style very much.🙂
Kent Rollins has forgotten what cowboy food is. It's always simple like the way this guy is doing it. I could survive a few days in 1881 because I don't feel comfortable having to depend on so much technology. I'd love to live a week where there aren't any annoying cars, planes everywhere and fools bumping into me because they're so busy typing on their cell phones.
Quit cooking dog you animal
Hell yes. Thé way to go. Simple frugal life, but juicy and tasty. Cheers
I love brown ground beef put peppers onions in the pan. Every body plated add tomatoes. Yum. One my favorite. Put a potato in micro wave supper.
@@francesodle6069 Always have potatoes and onions on hand. Can be the start for many things.
I do all the cooking in my family whether in the kitchen, grill or camp. Friends and family are always amazed on how I can make fantastic meals and have everything ready at the same time. My mother taught me.
Dwayne is who i come to when i wanna feel like i'm home, such a lovely family
I really miss the men who raised me and you remind me of a few of them and also remind me of how blessed I am to have had it that way :) love and light to you and yours!! Prayers up! Comfort and strength to endure 😊
A video like this is just a down to earth common sense video that is great. So many Americans are short of common good sense today. I'm going a 👍 on this video. Thank you Brian from NC.
I use cast iron everyday in my cooking. That’s just my simple ways I guess. If it’s used right and kept seasoned I only have to wipe it out when done. A cast iron skillet and a Dutch oven can cook anything. And always use bacon grease on the iron stuff.
Just made collard greens in a Dutch oven and cornbread in a skillet. Best cookware ever made.
My wife gave me a five piece set of Lodge cast iron cookware for Christmas. She’s a keeper!!
My husband just put our cast iron skillet on our old wood stove to cook dinner. Love making fires here at the homestead to cook on
Olive oil works great too. Love this channel
@@rogerknight2267 Your wife gave you the five piece set of Lodge iron cookware because you know how to cook. You're a keeper to her!🤠
I love the grace, wisdom and respect you showed here, including to Rollins. I really enjoyed this video, and will have to try it (with the prep of ingredients) the next time we go camping.
Yum!!! Although not camping, this was my breakfast this morning (and I eat this breakfast while camping). As for the health nuts, I have to watch what I eat as I control my blood sugars without meds. What I do, is have this with a whole wheat tortilla...works for me as my blood sugar does not spike. As for the butter, it's a great fat that helps prevent blood sugar spikes and helps with cholesterol. Eggs are healthy with protein that helps with blood sugar spikes. Sausage, is another protein that helps blood sugar spikes. Cheese is not a problem. As for the onions, you are correct...the only time you really need to sauté the onions separately, is when you are adding them to a sauce. This is a great, healthy breakfast! I wouldn't hesitate to eat it every day. Thanks for the video!
I love how real you are. And I love this because not everyone can cook and showing someone how to cook a simple meal is perfect. Got to start somewhere. I started with grilled cheese and Mac and cheese. Then soup from soup mixes and hamburger helper. Now, I can cook from scratch and can also smoke and bake.
Just came across your channel. Once I clicked "play" I couldn't stop watching, and I think it was all the storytelling. Something good about a campfire and stories. Thanks and keep it up!
I got a good one for you to try. You'll like this. I mix store bought lunch ham, the rectangle kind, dice it up and mix it with eggs and cheese in a container you know. Then I dice potatoes bout salad size and some diced white onion. I put them in a skillet with water
, Salt and margarine, not alot of water just enough to keep the potatoes from browning too much. I cover it for a little bit. Once that's done I take the lid off and dump in the egg mix and then cover it again but not too long. I check it and stir it till the eggs are done and it's pretty great. I learned that on an Indian reservation in Washington State. I think you should make more campfire cooking videos. I like yours better because yours relate to everyone. Few people have the resources to have a wagon train kitchen but everybody has rocks, Tupperware, wood, and a skillet. Thanks for the video.
Love the way you do your outdoor breakfast, you do it like my dad taught me, easy and tasty. Thanks for bringing back memories.
You are so right ,everyone needs to know how to cook a meal ,simple ,filling and not complicated,both my grown men are great cooks and this momma is so proud ! My mountain man and his significant other do everything together,build ,fish ,hunt and live off the garden they grow…I’m proud to know they will make it together no matter what !
One of the best breakfasts I ever had was camping up in the Rocky Mountains and the guides who had the horses made us scrambled eggs with hatch green chilies from a can and cowboy coffee with simple Folgers. It's amazing how good things are when you keep it simple. Looking at Life through a prism of gratitude does wonders as well.
This......this is the most calming thing I've ever seen. So simple, laid back, and just down to earth. Thanks for sharing!
really? are you sure? most calming thing you ve ever seen? ...
I'm a HUGE Kent Rollins fan but this what I'm talkn about...SIMPLE and something the common person is going to do or relate to. Great job, just sub'd!
What a delightful campfire breakfast and delivered by a kind personality. Blessings to you and your family!
Hell I raised up eating off or a campfire on Huntin trips my dad and my uncle charley tought us boys how to cook just like what you’re doing and it’s not good till it’s got a tad of ash too lol ! Thanks for the memories bud
This is my roots from growing up that hit the memory button of growing up. My Mom and Dad did this kind of cooking on our camping trips and I tried to relay this to my kids. Great job!!!
I've been, pretty much, making this breakfast for years when I go camping. Only difference for me is that I'll have made steak burritos for dinner the night before and then take the leftovers the next morning and scramble some eggs into them. Two meals and about the same amount of work. Haven't starved in a long time!
Where you get the sausage at? Does it come in a ball like he had? I only see patties and links in grocery store.
@@TraumaER It comes in a tube much like hamburger. Be cure to get the original or the Italian. The maple flavor doesn't work too well.
@@ByrdMann2010 cool thanks. I’ll look next time.
@@ByrdMann2010 made it today with Jimmy Dean. It was awesome. Thanks!
Another great video and some helpful info. One of the things that got my wife interested in me in the beginning was that I had learned to cook over a fire. She liked it and found it manly; a tip for the young fellows 😉
Great recipe. More campfire cast iron skillet videos please!
100% agree, being able to feed yourself is a skill everyone should have.
Thank you! I just acquired and restored a rusty, crusty old 15" whopper of a cast iron skillet, and was looking for a good way to use it out camping, and at home, where I altered my fire pit to be a camp-cook set up. A friend made me a nice tripod for my dutch oven or blue enameled coffee pot. Skillet will go on a 6" high expanded metal trivet. I made the home version set up in case of emergency cooking, and discovered guests LOVE going over and ladelling out their own portion of our 4-bean baked bean dish, our the gravy for our biscuits 'n gravy.
Thanks for being yourself!
I'm so glad I found your channel!!
I grew up in the Peruvian Andes mountains and we lived completely off the grid, we used to cook over the flames though. The other day I cooked deer stew over the flames, it was very tasty but I didn't like how my camping cast iron dutch oven is stained now. Very important lesson I learned from you! "Don't cook over direct flames"
If you do again, put dish soap on the outside before you cook.
Sat, here in Ashland MT I was feeding cattle and horses hay and "cake" at - 28deg F, I could have used a simple hearty breakfast like this. Outstanding video keep'em coming!
Put on your mittens. Ha. +16 F this morning in SW Ohio. Livestock here is fed. Like summer compared to you. Be safe. Be prepared 🇺🇸
This was a channel that was suggested to me because of Cowboy Kent Rollins. I have to say that after watching just a few minutes of your video, I immediately subscribed. We need need more “ real life” channels like yours. This generation coming up only knows technology. I grew up with self sufficiency.
✅
Simple cooking, simple food. Best way to have it. Now thats my kinda food. Nice to see others still do the same. I make a simple eggs and diced fresh potatoes for hashbrowns.. very simple very tasty
My wife and I left be in a very wooded place and she likes to go out and cook on a campfire . I made a stainless steel expanded metal grill with legs or she can hang it on a stick over the fire if she wants to . A good cup of coffee boiled over a campfire is the beginning of a wonderful day in the fall . Especially if it’s cool enough to sit by a fire . We’ve done a lot of camping over the years and have had many many meals cooked over a campfire . We both can cook . I love to fry deer steak and make gravy and homemade biscuits over a campfire . That’s my favorite breakfast over a campfire . I enjoyed watching your video . I just subscribed to your podcast . Looking forward to seeing more of your videos . Have a blessed day !!
I watch Kent. I do most of my cooking like this during hunting season. Always wanting to learn something new. Please keep it up.
You got that right SIMPLIFY everybody wants to be fancy nowadays but they have no heart or pride you sir seem to be doing alright
Your voice is just so American and relaxing! Fantastic work! 😍❤️🌟
THANKYOU so much I am one of these people who can cook fine on a stove but balk on a real fire you have helped me so much by helping me think I can actually do it. Plus you include such gems of wisdom as…
“You need to learn to simplify, part of slowing down part of Simplifying your life Is simplifying the basics and there’s nothing more foundational Nothing more simple than your diet what you eat”
This brings back memories of my childhood. Traveling stopping along side the highway. Mom and GrandMa cooking breakfast or dinner. Thank you.
Ahhh, nothing like a campfire meal. Well done. Thank you for finally introducing us to Mama, and a hearty welcome to Rooster.
I'm glad I came across your channel. Your relaxed tone, words of wisdom on family, & being self sufficient, along with the instructional camp fire cooking! Felt like I was there. Thx!🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
Heck, I for one, would enjoy seeing this channel and Kent's channel, due a Joint video!!! Good people coming together and giving sound advice!!
Some eggs toast, coffee dont ever forget coffee. My wife like arepa maiz. Options of scramble eggs❤
I've fixed that every year at deer season at the truck, and I fix it for myself a lot through the year, awesome video thanks.
Man, that old fella has really good advice for us young fellas. You must know how to cook simple meals. God bless you sir.
I've watched this one a couple times and all your videos are well done, simple like talking to a best friend, informative, and entertaining.
Simple cooking. Simple living. You've got the formula for a good life. I just subscribed for more of your content. Thanks a million.
Totally agree with the over complicated meals thing .
Simplify forsure!
Great video thanks👍
I am in the UK and my two teenage (now young adult) sons absolute favourite meal I made them was a big breakfast in a skillet just like that served straight on the table in the pan stood on a wooden board. They especially liked it coming in the evening when coming home from a hard game of rugby. Sausage, bacon, beans, fried eggs, hash browns. All in one and cooked sequentially so it all gets cooked just right and not burnt. Takes some skill and timing and it helps if you have a lid to keep the heat in and so you can turn the heat at the bottom of the pan down.
Enjoyed this video very much. Love the outdoors and folks that take time to educate us. God bless you all on your travels.
