Yeah we also kill feral hogs on a regular basis plus a couple calves or deer a year so we always had plenty of sausage to eat also.

I have been making a bunch of pot roasts and pork roasts lately in the trailer... pick up a mid sized crock, throw in the roast, some baby carrots, some onions, some potatos and what ever pepper and salt you like. Turn it on low and come back at dinner time.

made my first pork roast and I am sold!

I thought this said CHEAP college meals, jeez some of you guys ate better in college than I eat now.

Ramen noodles of course,
pizza rolls
giant bag of cheddar chex mix (3lbs) from BJ's wholesale.

Basically whatever we could afford after buying beer for the week. It wasn't much sometimes.

$10-$12 bucks to throw a roast together and you have good food for a week...
