Same way as I do it. I do like a few soup (oyster) crackers to float in there.

Sounds tasty.... all but the diet Mt. Dew.

I use those as well, it’s strange but regular saltines really don’t taste as good in oyster stew as the oyster crackers do.

Had seasoned pulled pork sandwiches. Those were very good.

That pan looks well broke in ADC

Yes sir. My parents sold that cookware 20+ years before I was born! That makes it at least 75 years old. They had it since then and passed to me when they passed years ago. I bet there's been hundreds of pounds of food through that thing and popcorn ain't that heavy. lol

nothing like a cast aluminum pot for making popcorn

I like Rural Route One popcorn , it is a local southern WI brand

I have an old National canner that the gauge went bad on and I no longer use as a pressure canner

it makes a great popcorn and stock pot
just has a cheap aluminum lid from an old turkey frier but it fits ok

I also have some Magna-lite pans

Rabbit stew in the pressure cooker and corn on the cob.
