Menu for the Reno Rodeo Cattle Drive

I had intended to post this blog last Sunday, but a sunburn got the better of me ...

Guests from 12 states (and the Netherlands!) will savor great chuckwagon grub next week on the Reno Rodeo Cattle Drive. Along the way, city-slickers will enjoy 11 or 12 great meals served from a modern chuckwagon (a catering trailer in real life). During the Drive, the chuckwagon crew will serve over 750 pounds of meat, 100 gallons of strong, cowboy coffee, and 50 dozen eggs.

There's only one rule: "Please do not ride your horses near the kitchen or bar. The West is littered with gravesites of those who have made this mistake."

The Cattle Drive runs June 11 to 15, 2006.
