RE: [Philmont]: Turkey bag cooking

We used the turkey bag method last year too. We used the two pots, boil
water in one pot, line the other pot with the turkey bag. Put the food in
the turkey bag, pour in the boiling water, stir and let sit. One trick we
learned on a shake down hike is to carry 2 wooden clothes pins. Pin the
turkey bag open around the top on the pot. This makes it easier to add the
food and water and keeps the bag in place while you are stirring. Twist the
bag closed while it is sitting to keep the heat in and then re-pin the bag
to serve. Works great.

  Can you explain how your crew prepare the turkey bag cooking at Philmont?

  Our troop is going later this year and wanted to see if we should use this
method.
