Meat On A Stick

I have a hankering for a tasty well done chuck of meat on a stick. This meat must be self-cooked over an open campfire and I want this chunk of flesh to taste of oak with undertones of winter cold and just a hint of cold river kissed wind.

If the flavor lingers well into the night I'd be well satisfied. An evening of laughter, jokes, friendly back slaps, and if I'm lucky, gunfire by flashlight. Then, coffee and pastry accompanied by the haunting yelps of coyotes.

Has anyone a match...

    That sounds like a fine idea, sir. Wish I were there to help you set it up.

      You are more than welcome (late February) so make flight reservations quickly....we'll supply the ammo and grub.

    Too bad you live so far away. I can give 'ya: the oak wood fire, sausages and hotdogs, cold well water, the sound of coyotes yipping, good coffee and apple turnovers. Bring your own ammo. I'm low.

      Done deal. I love apple turnovers. Ammo isn't a problem.

    Not yet, my friend. If I'm lucky next month. Tomorrow is just another work day for me. Take care, Rob.

    Sounds delish. I got stuck with crappy, liquid-cheese nachos. MMmmm, I miss Velveeta...

      Wrapped in wool and with a good fire I can handle the sixteen degree weather. You might as well pack your bag and grab your blanket and ride down and join us. Thanks, my friend.

    I will post notice of time and location next month. We've yet to set a date, but trust me, it'll happen and you're more than welcome. In the meantime, select those firearms for transport.
