A Recipe from the Sahara


How to Cook a Camel (makes 500 generous servings)
1. Make lots of cornbread stuffing.
2. Skin and gut 12 turkeys and stuff them with the cornbread stuffing.
3. Skin and gut 6 pigs and stuff each with 3 stuffed turkeys, adding more cornbread stuffing as needed to fill.
4. Skin and gut 2 cows and stuff them with 3 pigs apiece, adding more cornbread stuffing as need to fill.
5. Skin and gut the camel and stuff it with the cows, adding more cornbread stuffing as needed to fill.
6. Roast in a very large oven, basting often with goat milk butter, at 177 degrees Celcius.
THAT'S IT!  You're done.

Aha! So THIS is what to do with that naughty beast!  Make a meal out of it!  An excellent creative solution Aunt Bobby!  (From the old Arab proverb: If the camel once gets his nose into the tent his whole body will soon enter... leaving the tent owner out in the cold.)  Hee hee!  Love it!   ~Lori

So much for "I'm so hungry, I could eat a horse!".  Now, it has to be changed to "...I could eat a camel".  Thanks for a lighthearted look at a big eater's best dream ever!

Yes, this recipe would require a VERY big oven.

I love the pictures on your blog Bobby!
