Hoping someone can help me out here... I just bought the cookbook with the title in the subect line... What I need to know is the measurement of a "beanpot", ie what is the volume of measurement. CT
"Beanpot" as a standard of measurement?That's a new one for me! When she gets home tonight, I'll see if my wife knows. She also has some of her mother's, and grandma's old cookbooks. Perhaps in them...? I know that the Milw published several cook books during their passenger train years. Believe one has also been reprinted sicne then. Lunch time. This food talk has made me hungry! Boxcab E50
Charlie- A "beanpot" is the same as a casserole. An oven proof baking dish with a lid. These come in various sizes. So can't give a specific capacity. If there are quantities for the ingredients, after they're mixed, all you can do, is to find a casserole they fit in. Sorry that's the best I can gather for you. Boxcab E50
I've seen one such Milw. cookbook..was young and ignorant at the time..anyone know where I can find another?..(now that I found someone who can cook)
Believe there are at least a couple of different Milw cookbooks out there. I see one show up on eBay now and then. Seems to me they usually run at least in the $50 range. Boxcab E50
================================= I got my copy thru the "Historic Rail" catalogue. The cookbook is published by "The Milwaukee Road Historical Association" and has a copyright of 1997. You should be able to get it thru that organization. I still would like to know the volume of measurement of a Milwaukee Road "beanpot" Charlie T
beanpot..approximately the size of the kettle you cook the beans in..probly not the actual measurement..but it works for me
