    I want to go to this. Bet there will be some neat ideas and some tasty food.

    UPDATE:

    Well, bummer...

    Here's the official calendar:

    Looks like 4 August is Elbert County and 6 August is Douglas County...

    Sorry, I know you all are as disappointed as I was to find out I missed it.

    Thanks for the info. I have done a fair job with my dutch ovens but nothing I'd want to compete with -- OTOH, I would love to pick up more ideas and tips ...

    By "partake" do they mean that you get to sample food? I would love to go, haven't done dutch oven cooking since my boy scout days. But if all I can do is see and smell the food, I'm going to have to arrive on a full stomach.

    I've never been. I'd assume there will be food. It will be the day after the El Paso County fair ends.

    So is it just one big bed that everyone gets into? Or does each competitor have their own bed and sheets?
    What is my joy if all hands, even the unclean, can reach into it? What is my wisdom, if even the fools can dictate to me? What is my freedom, if all creatures, even the botched and impotent, are my masters? What is my life, if I am but to bow, to agree and to obey?

    It's a good thing they added "cooking" to the title, otherwise some people might leave disappointed.

    Who the hell wants to cook with a Dutch Oven in July?

    I was cooking in a dutch oven at 12. Peach cobbler is my signature. Brazed, beaned, chllied and cobbers. Can't make the comp but am interested in the results.

    I never cared for peach cobbler. I much prefer apple cobbler using fresh apples (I like using 3 varieties: Granny Smith, Gala, and Fuji), lots of cinnamon and nutmeg, and a nice streusel topping.

    This is exactly the reason why I opened this thread. If not one else made a joke, I was going to.
