    What's your favorite chew/dip?

    Grew up on the farm. Chewed Red Tag Tinsley as a kid up to about 16 when my girlfriend objected. My dad did all his life. He died a painful miserable death from stomach cancer because of it.

The problem is that I have done all of them dozens of times over the last 50 years so they are pretty mundane to me now. People still travel days to see them. Personally I find I end up going farther afield over...

    Post pictures of your camp kitchen
