"Reading Kent Rollins’ chuck wagon recipes—no fancy ingredients here—and gazing at his wife, Shannon’s, mouthwatering photos—no fancy food stylists here—are as comforting as a campfire and a guitar. Their book is right out of a Currier and Ives print, full of cast iron, logs, masa, cornmeal, smoke, frying, and the Oklahoma cowboy drawl. If you ever wanted to be a cowboy when you grew up—as did I—and ride, and rope, and brand, and cook under the stars, then this book is as close as you can get." —Meathead, barbecue whisperer of AmazingRibs.com, and bestselling author of Meathead "Shannon and Kent Rollins exemplify quintessential rural America, a place where family values are sacred and community ties are strong. Weaving family recipes with deeply personal stories, they take you on a spiritual journey, giving you a glimpse of a slow and deliberate lifestyle that remains unmarked by time. You’ll be inspired to gather your own family around the table, feed them with these delicious dishes, and create in your own home the tangible feelings of love, warmth, and fellowship that spill from the pages of Faith, Family, & the Feast." —Amy Mills and Mike Mills, owners of 17th Street Barbecue and authors of Peace, Love, and Barbecue and Praise the Lard "Authentic and delicious! Kent Rollins knows food, and he knows how to bring stories of the American West to life. It doesn’t get any better than the great food with original ingredients that Kent shares in this cookbook. I’m a big fan." —General (Retired) Tommy Franks
