Synopses & Reviews
It’s been said that Cowgirls cook with three ingredients—salt, pepper and catsup. And it’s almost true! There are no “Bouquet Garni’s” in Cowgirl Cooking. Cowgirls have always known that what makes people happy is good food, prepared simply.
If you are getting ready to go out on a dark and frosty morning, you will welcome a hot breakfast that will stick to your ribs. Sunday supper has long been a tradition on the ranch—a time when folks can get together and discuss the week behind and the week ahead while enjoying a warm meal around the table. Special occasions, like a wedding or a birthday will be celebrated with something homemade. At a pot luck where everybody’s best recipe gets to shine and be enjoyed. Campfire cooking holds a special place in the hearts of those lucky enough to have eaten under the stars and started as necessity when large herds of cattle were being moved and the chuck wagon was the kitchen. These recipes, from cocktails to desserts, are fit for home and the range—and will help every cook find her inner cowgirl.

Jill Charlotte Stanford. Growing up on Puget Sound in Washington State, Jill always knew she was a cowgirl at heart. Summers spent horseback at a camp in Central Oregon only cemented her determination. Her first horse, Buttons, opened up the world of cowgirls for her and she has never looked back. “I am the luckiest cowgirl in the world,” Jill says. “Writing about the women that I admire so much, sharing their stories and recipes is like a dream come true. It is my hope that when you read this book, you will feel as if they invited you into their homes, to enjoy their good food and hear some wonderful stories about their lives.” Jill lives and writes in Sisters, Oregon.
