Meals cooked on the trail or in a cozy pioneer kitchen had flavors and ingredients in common. We've taken a look back at the cooks and foods of the Old West to give you a taste of the life and times as well as many authentic recipes that have been handed down from that period. Also included are dishes that have been updated to reflect modern cooking methods and ingredients.
