Newfie food: Boil up

My first tailgate party ;)

What you see here with the big pot and a propane tank is a large scale boil up. Boil ups usually refer to a little winter picnic out in the woods. A fire is started, and water is put to boil to warm up the tired snowshoers, or snowmobilers. It is also common to roast wieners and eat a hearty serving of warm baked beans. 

Our boil up was a large scale one, so we deep fried fries and wieners as a treat.
