Dutch Oven Peach Cobbler
I’ll admit that I’m the weird guy who’s idea of a vacation doesn’t involve sitting at the beach and soaking up rays. I like to truck the family up to the North County. Each year we are lucky enough to get to spend sometime with family at Lake Of The Woods in Redwood, New York. While everybody else sits by the lake I’m the nut with welding gloves on sweating over hot cast iron, and I wouldn’t have it any other way. This dutch oven peach cobbler recipe was a big hit with the family this year so give it a try and know that it is The Backyard Pioneer approved!

This looks like a simple recipe I can handle! I am just now expanding my cooking skills out into the campfire cooking. The whole dutch oven to amount of coals to use always baffles me 😉
