Cast Iron Cooks of the West

Just received the newsletter for the Cast Iron Cooks of the West, written by Dave Herzog of Redding, California. CICOW's March Dutch oven gathering is being held in support of a Safe Haven Horse Rescue workday. Safe Haven is located in Cottonwood, California.

"(CICOW) will be hosting the meal for the workday and providing out culinary creations to about 30 hungry volunteers," said Herzog.

Club members plan to gather at Safe Haven at 9:30 a.m. and provide lunch to the volunteers around 12:30 p.m. Contact Herzog at (530) 227-8015 for information on the DOG.

To get to Safe Haven, take I-5 north or south, exit on Gas Point Road and drive west 3 miles to West Anderson Road. Turn left and drive 1 mile to 3950 West Anderson Road. Turn left into the driveway and drive over the bridge. Make the first right. Parking, cooking and horses will be toward the back. You're advised to keep vehicle speed under 5 mph on the driveway.

"Nothin' like cookin' with livestock and having the old west ambiance to join," added Herzog.
