p.s. Biscuits may get burnt on bottom, I suck at dutch oven cooking.

Get two metal pie plates smaller than the diameter of the dutch oven. Flip one upside down and put it in the oven. Set the second pie pan, right side up, on top of the inverted pie pan. Put your biscuits inside the top pie pan and cook away. By using this method you raise the biscuits off the bottom of the dutch oven so they don't burn.

Alternately, you can place a single pie plate right side up inside the dutch oven and support it with some kind of spacer to keep it off the bottom of the oven. You can use three or four stones or just about anything that will elevate the pie pan and allow air to flow underneath it. Put your biscuits in the pie pan as above and cook away!!

That sounds almost how I cook muffins when I am backpacking. We use the little tin or rubber cupcake cups and put them inside our pot with water and steam them. It's either that or put parchment paper with water underneath it.

Don't know why I never though about doing something similar for dutch oven cooking. Sounds good to me!

Sorry I guess i forgot to update. Been back to work since last week of june. Now on a day run ( St.Louis and back every day) still have and will continue to have some stiffness and pain with back/shoulder rest of my life. But at least I can work

[Rick]

Ouch. I'm glad you're back to work anyway. A day run isn't too bad. My dad had one for a lot of years (he was number 5 in seniority). Lot's of hours but your bed at night. That's a +.

[Justin Case]

sorry you still have pain but glad you are able to work

[Aurelius95]

I wish I could make it, but I will be in Savannah that weekend for my wife's cousin's wedding. Y'all have fun!
