A Sneak Peek: Guest-Favorite Recipes
Want to know what’s waiting for you at the end of the trail? Here are the four legendary staples that have reached “must-have” status on our trips:
-
Our Famous Guac
There is guacamole, and then there is Western Spirit Guac. Whipped up fresh at the support truck right when you roll into camp, it’s the ultimate post-ride salty-creamy reward. Best enjoyed with a handful of sturdy chips and a sunset view.
-
Chicken Marbella
A sophisticated trail favorite that balances savory and sweet. This Mediterranean-inspired dish features succulent chicken braised with olives, capers, and prunes. It’s the kind of “how did they cook this in the woods?” meal that defines our backcountry kitchen.
-
Dutch Oven Lasagna
The ultimate comfort food for tired legs. We build this masterpiece layer by layer in the cast iron: bubbling sauce, melted cheeses, and perfectly cooked pasta. It comes out of the coals hot, hearty, and guaranteed to fuel tomorrow’s climb.
-
Pineapple Upside Down Cake
The crown jewel of our Dutch oven desserts. Caramelized sugar, golden pineapple rings, and a moist, fluffy cake that tastes like a victory lap. It’s best served warm by the fire while the stars come out.
Every meal was excellent; my stomach was smiling.
