• The night before, put your beans to soak in a large stock pot with enough water to cover them with 4-5 inches of water. The next day, when you come back to camp for lunch, drain and rinse the beans.Set a 1-inch Dutch Oven over 10-15 briquets and pour in the beans with the tomato sauce and stewed tomatoes. Add the dry spices and onions as well. Let this start to simmer while you saute the garlic in 2-3 Tbsp. of olive oil in another Dutch Oven or frying pan. After the garlic turns a golden color add the meat and continue to fry for 10-15 minutes. Drain any excess grease off and add to the Dutch with the beans.Simmer for 1-2 hours or until everyone gets in off the hill.A Back Country Guide to Outdoor Cooking Spiced with Tall Tales - Camp Chili, Stews, Soups and SaucesA Back Country Guide to Outdoor Cooking Spiced with Tall Tales - Camp Chili, Stews, Soups and Sauces
