Cooking with Chanlyn

Hey guys this is Chanlyn, I am Max's wife and I love to cook. Normally when you think about cooking outdoors it's hot dogs, burgers and steaks, but you know the list is limitless. I don't know about you guys but when we camp I always have a cooler or two full of fresh food that I bring with me, and we for the most part keep a fire stoked and going it helps keep the bugs away but it is also ready for when it's time to feed this crew of mine. So let's get started with a simple recipe for a one pot breakfast to get you up and going.

Mountain Morning Breakfast
1 pound mild pork sausage (such as Jimmy Dean®)
1 onion, chopped
1 red bell pepper chopped
1 green bell pepper chopped
8 oz sliced mushrooms
1 clove garlic, minced
1 (2 pound) package frozen shredded hash brown potatoes
12 eggs, beaten
1 (16 ounce) package shredded Cheddar cheese
 Salt and pepper to taste

Directions

Build a campfire and allow the fire to burn until it has accumulated a bed of coals.

Cook and stir the sausage, onion, and garlic in a 12-inch cast iron Dutch oven with lid, raised over the coals to medium-high heat, until the sausage is no longer pink and the onion is tender.

Stir in the red bell pepper, green bell pepper,salt, pepper and hash brown potatoes until evenly mixed. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the hash browns are hot and the peppers are tender, about 15 minutes.

Pour the beaten eggs evenly over the top of the potatoes, allowing them to sink into the potatoes. Cover the Dutch oven, and place 6 to 9 coals underneath, and 12 to 18 on top. Allow to bake until the eggs are firm, about 40 minutes.Sprinkle with Cheddar cheese, cover, and continue cooking until the cheese has melted, about 5 minutes.

I hope you all enjoy your breakfast this has been Chanlyn Malone and please remember to stay safe and eat well.

Hiking at Issaqueena Falls

This is the water fall that the legend of issaqueena hid under to evade her capture

Issaqueena Falls

Im standing where the Indian Issaqueena was hiding in the waterfall

          My family and I traveled to Issaqueena Fall over the the holidays . Now the legends goes like this-  Issaqueena was a creek Indian maiden named Issaqueena who had been captured by the Cherokees. She met and fell in love with a white trader named Allan Francis. When she learned that the Cherokee were planning an attack on the fort where her beloved lived, she road a horse 96 miles to warn the white settlers . When the Cherokee came after her Issqueena saw them coming and knowing that they believed evil spirits lived in the water falls but instead she hid on a ledge behind the water falls. she remained there until they were gone and it was safe thus tricking her pursuer.You can find this water fall and more near the city of Walhalla in Oconee county's S.C   P.S this is how the city of 96 got its name.

Lost Treasure

The before picture

            I love looking around in thrift stores and going to auctions. When looking around, I look for knives,camping gear and are survival gear. So one day my wife and I  were looking around in a shop and in a glass case I noticed a knife and I asked to see it and it looked really bad so I gave it back to the lady. After looking around not finding much I ask what would she take for the knife not knowing what kind it was . she said she didn't know what to ask for it so she called her husband and he said $4 .Not being to much I gave that for it. I've dabbled in making knives before and using  Bras so to polish and clean them up. This is some thing that most of the military has used to shine all brass and metal . So I used this with sand paper to sand the rust off and shine the blade and brass . After cleaning it up best that I could it looked like it was a Uncle Henry that's not a real high end knife but it is a good one. Now when you see the pictures you will some pitting in the blade the pitting was deep and I couldn't get it all out but over all it looks nice. I've got an old boy scout knife that I will be working on later. The leather sheath  was made by a shoe maker he done a good job

after me working on it

Table Rock

     This past weekend my wife and I took a trip upstate on the motorcycle to Table Rock State Park in Pickens, SC.  Table Rock is a very nice place located  in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains.                  According to history the mountains got their name from the Lower Cherokee Nation, who called them Sah-ka-na-ga  which translated means The Great Hillls of God, but Table Rock got it's name due to the eating rituals of the chief . He would sitand eat from a rock that resembled a table top at every meal, these same meals came from the established hunting camps of the area. This land was part of the Hopewell Treaty that was signed in 1785. As it sits now it's a beautiful park with waterfalls and a places to camp and swim. It also has plenty of trails for hiking and looking out at amazing views.
