It's Prairie Dog Time!

Much as Groundhog Day is eagerly anticipated in February, here at the Village we look forward seeing the elusive Prairie Dogs each January.  That said, our Prairie Dogs are not your typical scurrying mammals.  Ours hail as a local Chapter of the Lone Star Dutch Oven Society...and they come bearing food!

Enough with the tomfoolery.

The Prairie Dogs will be here on Saturday, January 14, from 1-4 p.m.  They will be demonstrating the preparation of everything from appetizers to desserts using charcoal briquettes and cast iron.  Here is a schedule of specific demonstrations if you'd like to plan your schedule accordingly:

History of Dutch Oven - 1:30 - 1:45


Dutch Oven Care - 2:00 - 2:15

Dutch Oven Implements - 2:30 - 2:45

Temperature Control - 3:00 - 3:15
