We’re excited to feature a new cookbook from our friend Kent Rollins, the Chuckwagon Cook of Oklahoma. One peek inside this book and your taste buds will be on alert!
A Taste of Cowboy features 256 pages brimming with more than 90 recipes, full-color food and scenery photography, cowboy wit and wisdom, wagon remedies and more. The recipes involve simple pantry ingredients. You will find cowboy favorites, family recipes, and wholesome comfort food.
“I’ve cooked for and cowboyed on different ranches across the New Mexico, Kansas, Texas and Oklahoma areas, and with that comes a lot of tales of where I’ve been and what I’ve seen. I have had to chop ice to make coffee water, been in dirt storms so bad I had to light a lantern in the middle of the day. The stories are important because they represent the authentic cowboy way of life and describe cowboys and characters whose personalities and adventures color the West.”
If the food and stories don’t transport you to cow camp, surely the cookbook’s photos will. We’d like you to have a copy!

Cowboy Cooking – open flame, hearty meat, coffee rubs!
Cowboy food to me means spring and fall works with lots of food! Neighbors neighboring up to help each other get the work done. The only expectation of pay is cowboy food.
Cowboy Food means family, friends, food, and lots of lovin’ and sharin’ and laughter.
Cowboy food is hearty, not heavy, cooked outdoors for hungry, hard-working folks. It’s the glue that keeps body and soul together when the road is long and the ride is rough.
Cowboy food means hearty stick to your ribs food that came from all your hard work and love of the land
Cowboy food means to me beans and beef over an open wood fire.
