All recipes use a 12-inch dutch oven, unless specified.
If you have a 10-inch dutch oven, use about 2/3 to 3/4 of the ingredient amounts but keep the temperature and time about the same.
If you have an 8-inch dutch oven, use about 1/2 of the ingredient amounts but keep the temperature and time about the same.
If no temperature is listed, use 350 degrees.
See Heat Settings page for temperature and coal placement

Totally off the hook!  19 scouts, 9 adults, 4 batches of Taco Tots, zero leftovers.  People were licking the dutch ovens.   Not literally, that's gross.

What's is Nacho Cheese Soup? What brand did you use? Can or dry mix?

This makes for great late night food. I recommend draining the beef once its browned, otherwise it gets a bit greasy.
