General instructions for all meals

Before you begin each meal, assign a grubmaster and the appropriate number of assistants. Read the entire recipe before you start cooking to understand what you need to do, and the steps to get there. Check your bins to be sure all the needed ingredients have been delivered.

Everyone - Scouts and Leaders, must thoroughly wash their hands before working with food, and everyone handling food should wear the sanitary gloves.

Gloves should be changed anytime the food handler switches from working different types of food, and between touching raw and ready-to-eat foods. This will help prevent cross-contamination of bacteria and allergens.

Pay attention to the cleanliness of your cooking equipment. Clean cutting boards, knives and utensils before you start working, and while preparing your meal.

Notes for Scoutmasters and Grubmasters We will operate on a cycle menu with “A” Weeks and “B” weeks. ● “A” Week menus will be Week 1 (starts July 4th) Week 3 (starts July 18th) and Week 5 (starts August 1st) ● “B Week menus will be Week 2 (starts July 11th) and Week 4 (starts July 25th)

Menus may change based on product availability.

If you need any more details about ingredients or recipes,your basic questions can be directed to the Commissary staff. More information is available from your Food Service Director, please ask the Waubeeka director to help you contact the Buckskin Kitchen.

If you notice an error in this cookbook, or something doesn’t make sense, please tell us so we can correct it for Scouts that come after your group.

Recipes for desserts will be tested in camp during staff week and provided to your patrol on your first day in camp.

2. Camp Read - 2021 You will be provided with a food thermometer to make sure your meals are cooked to a safe temperature. Insert the tip of the thermometer into the center of the piece of food you are testing and wait a few moments until the gauge stops moving. Please refer to the thermometer image for proper cooking and reheating temperatures. Perishable foods that remain in the Temperature Danger Zone of 40 to 140 degrees Fahrenheit for more than 2 hours should be discarded.

3. Camp Read - 2021

Cleanup

When it’s time to clean up, use the 3 basin method illustrated in the chart to help safely clean your cooking equipment and mess kits. Your unit will be supplied with a kettle to heat washing water.

Keep your cooking equipment clean! When cleanup is complete, make sure your cooking gear is dry, and put it away before moving on to your next activity to keep it clean between meals.

Tips to keep your Cast Iron Skillets, Pans and Dutch Ovens clean and non-stick ● When finished cooking and serving, wipe the cooking surface with paper towels to remove food that is left behind while the pan is still warm. Be careful and use a hot pad to hold the pan ● When the pan is cool, clean with soapy water on a sponge or rag. Don’t use steel wool or harsh scrubbers, this will remove the seasoned finish. ● Rinse with clean water, and dry the pan ASAP to prevent rust. Heat the pan on a camp stove and wipe a thin film of oil all over the pan with a paper towel. Continue heating the pan for a couple minutes. This will re-season the surface of the cast iron. Seasoning the cast iron will prevent rust, and will make the cooking surface non-stick. ● If your cast iron looks rusty or corroded, ask the Commissary team for help. They may be able to restore your pan. 4. Camp Read - 2021
