Aren't beans mandatory? Maybe some steaks?

Daves Chuckwagon Cowboy Beans

My bean recipe comes from the back of a package of beans I bought several years ago; I've adjusted it to meet the spices you might find in the late 1880's. With these beans you can do the stove-top method, but it's easier to do in a Crock Pot because they can burn so easily, Soak the beans...

Beans and biscuits! Yep, every western had them and I watched them all!

 

[Trying2keepitReal]

Yep, I was going to say buns. Every Western movie I watch they soak up the bean gravy in their biscuits.

You could do corn, seems like a good side.
