Chapter 132: Chapter 130: Do Wolves Eat Meat After Traveling 1,000 Miles? Roasted Sweet Potatoes Smell Too Good!

Jiang Feng and Yang Maolin, along with Niu Erhu, found a pile of snow and started shoveling.

The drone was hovering high above, capturing from above.

Little Border Collie, Little White Wolf, and Little Mongolian Mastiff were strolling by their sides.

The weather was cold, so the Little Donkey didn’t venture outside much.

Little White Wolf and Mongolian Mastiff weren’t afraid of the cold; however, Xiaojin Hua wore a cotton coat Jiang Feng had prepared, looking adorably cute.

Jiang Feng shoveled out a hole from the top down in the snow pile.

These snow piles are natural snow, very fluffy, with just a slight shovel it opens up.

Then, clean the snow off the ground and find some stones to make a circle.

The circle of stones is to prevent the fire from spreading, it doesn’t need to be high, just encircle it.

Jiang Feng said to the livestream viewers:

"This is the prepared spot for starting a fire."

"Next, we prepare the fuel for the aluminum foil roast."

"We will put some charcoal in the circle, then cover it with cow dung, and put the aluminum foil on the cow dung to roast."

Hearing Jiang Feng’s words, the viewers were visibly surprised.

[Putting beef on cow dung to roast?]

[The cows never thought they would be cooked by their own cow dung!]

[Hahaha, can this still be eaten?]

[Cow dung is the most precious fuel on the grasslands, it has no taste at all, many herdsmen burn cow dung to keep warm in winter!]

[Roast with cow dung? Human dung do?]

The chatroom was full of joy, everyone was happy, and all kinds of comments kept flowing.

Jiang Feng carried an iron bucket, went back inside, and grabbed several pieces of burning coal, then walked outside to spill all the burning coal on the ground.

Yang Maolin and Niu Erhu went to the heap of cow dung in the back and shoveled two baskets of cow dung, then covered the coal fire with cow dung.

The soft cow dung looked like black Daley Garden mini cakes, mixed with soil and undigested dried grass.

It wasn’t long before smoke started to drift out.

This was deep winter, the scene around the ranch was still icy and snowy, people were wearing cotton coats, around them were some playful little dogs, creating a festive scene.

At a spot encircled by snow, charcoal and cow dung were burning on the ground.

This is typical of the grassland winter.

Jiang Feng went back inside to bring out the beef wrapped in aluminum foil.

The beef was large enough that it was quite a challenge for one person to carry.

He placed the beef on the cow dung, then took out a few tightly wrapped little "fruits."

"These are aluminum foil potatoes and aluminum foil sweet potatoes, I will put them in to roast together."

Saying this, he placed these little fruits on the cow dung.

All the ingredients were wrapped tightly in aluminum foil, without a single gap, it wouldn’t loosen once the aluminum foil was fixed, and as the temperature rose, it got even tighter.

After putting in the beef and potatoes sweet potatoes, Niu Erhu again shoveled a scoop of cow dung, covering all the aluminum foil completely.

Soon, no trace of the silver aluminum foil could be seen from the outside.

"Let’s roast them like this, it will take some time, once all the cow dung is burnt to ash, the beef should be ready."

"I estimate it will take a few hours."

"This aluminum foil beef is absolutely among the top ranks of grassland cuisine, in my view, it tastes better than roasting a whole cow."

"With the high temperature, a layer of oil will seep out on the surface of the beef, this oil and juice mix together and penetrate into the beef, and the beef gradually becomes cooked."

"Once the aluminum foil is opened, it’s like it has been stewed, it has the crispy aroma of roast meat, along with the cover of stew juices."

"When you directly use fire to roast daily, it often comes out a bit dry, the taste lags somewhat."

Jiang Feng introduced the merits of roast beef in aluminum foil.

[Host, stop talking, you made me hungry!]

[Waiting for the roast to pair with rice!]

[Does roasting meat like this really not have a taste?]

[This method is so convenient, although it takes some time, it fits the grassland way of eating!]

[Such a dish is really not something one might easily find!]

Netizens responded one after another.

The beef is currently roasting, no need to keep an eye on it, once the cow dung is burned out leaving only wisps of blue smoke, it can be eaten.

However, the potatoes and sweet potatoes need to be picked out earlier; they can’t roast for that long.

Jiang Feng felt idle as there was nothing to do; to make the livestream more entertaining, he thought he’d play outside for a while and build a snowman.

"The meat needs at least two hours to roast, no rush, while there is still snowfall, I’ll make a snowman."

"The snow is heavy here, building a snowman is no problem at all."

Jiang Feng told the viewers leisurely.

Wearing a down jacket and thick gloves, he immediately began to busy himself.

He was seen picking up snow from a pile with both hands, squeezed it tightly to form a dense, hard snowball.

Then he walked to a slope outside the ranch.

This was a downward slope, since few people come by, the snow on it was pristinely clean white, like a neatly laid sheet of ice cream.

Jiang Feng placed the snowball on the slope, then gently pushed forward.

The snowball started rolling slowly downwards, as the rolling speed increased, the snowball’s size also grew larger and larger.

By the time the snowball reached the bottom, it had grown by twofold.

Seeing this amusing scene, viewers from the north didn’t find it surprising, but those from the south who hadn’t seen snow before grew instantly excited.

[Wow, can you play with snow like this? The snowball actually gets bigger by itself!]

[Looks so fun! I want to play too!]

A Northern viewer replied:

[That’s how you build a snowball, start with a small one, then roll it on the ground; it gets bigger as you roll.]

[There’s a slope here, which makes it easier!]

[I always thought big snowballs are crafted bit by bit!]

[A millionaire playing with snow here?]

Jiang Feng walked down the slope, the small dogs and little wolves followed him running down.

Little Mongolian Mastiff was a bit clumsy and couldn’t maintain balance while running down, it slipped on the ground with a pitiful "aww" and rolled and crawled all the way down.

The Little Border Collie and Little White Wolf at the side looked at it with faces full of surprise.

The Mongolian Mastiff pup was naturally chubby and solid, like a big black meatball, rolling and bouncing with elasticity.

Jiang Feng saw it and laughed helplessly.

The little guy had no issues after falling down, it stood up and wagged its tail, walking towards Jiang Feng.

Jiang Feng walked over, picked up the snowball, and squeezed it a bit harder to make it a bit rounder, then continued walking up the slope.

Once he got up there, he did the same thing again, choosing an area the dogs and he hadn’t stepped on, and once again rolled the snowball down.

This time, the snowball rolled even faster, becoming noticeably larger.

The snowball caught the dogs’ attention.

Next time, when the snowball rolled down again, Xiaojin Hua was the first to rush over and chase it.

Neither the Wolf nor the Mongolian Mastiff have that ball-playing instinct, but seeing Xiaojin Hua rush over, they followed along.

"Don’t touch the snowball!"

Jiang Feng shouted.

With his words, Xiaojin Hua just bounced around the left and right of the snowball, and the other two little ones followed behind.

The scene looked beautiful.

Once the snowball grew larger, Jiang Feng thought it was just right, so he went down and carried the snowball back up.

This snowball would be the snowman’s head.

Jiang Feng carefully shaped the snowman’s head in the snow, making the head more rounded.

Then, using the snow on the ground, he built a large cone shape, and placing the head on top was all it took.

To make the snowman more lifelike, he took out a red scarf and tied it around the snowman’s neck, using round stones for the snowman’s eyes, a carrot for the nose, with a twig stuck in each side.

With a little makeover, the snowman’s appearance emerged.

The little ones were very happy, excitedly barking around the snowman.

The drone recorded Jiang Feng’s snowman.

The snowman is about 1.8 meters tall, a rather large snowman.

Although the design is simple, Jiang Feng’s handiwork is quite skillful, with the snowman’s body being particularly smooth and clean, looking pristine.

As if it was freshly picked cotton.

[I have to say, the rancher’s craftsmanship isn’t bad!]

[Only in the north can you experience the joy of playing in the snow!]

[I miss those snowball fights back in high school, haven’t experienced that fun since college.]

[Such a big snowman, the ones here are about the size of a phone.]

[If it’s about the size of a phone, is that really a snowman?]

The chat became lively.

Jiang Feng watched the snowman for a while and then approached the fire pit.

The snow around the pile of cow dung had partly melted.

He picked up an iron rod, poked around a bit, and found a few potatoes and sweet potatoes wrapped in foil.

"The potatoes and sweet potatoes are about ready."

"In this cold weather, eating roasted sweet potato feels great."

Jiang Feng shook off the ash from around the foil and peeled open the foil layer by layer.

Inside, the sweet potatoes were even cleaner than the ones typically sold on the streets.

Jiang Feng took off his gloves, split a sweet potato in half, warm steam rising from its soft flesh, almost as if one could smell its aroma through the screen.

Jiang Feng blew on it briefly and tasted the roasted sweet potato.

The taste was exceptional, leaving a fragrant aftertaste.

By his feet, the little ones wagged their tails happily, hinting for some treats.

Jiang Feng specifically picked out a slightly larger sweet potato, peeled off the foil, then the skin, letting it cool briefly, before feeding pieces to the Little Border Collie and Little Tibetan Mastiff.

The Little White Wolf stared at Jiang Feng, with Jiang Feng returning the gaze, the two locking eyes.

Seeing no action from Jiang Feng, the Little White Wolf let out a cute whimper, meaning:

"What about mine?"

Jiang Feng looked at it and said:

"You’re a wolf; wolves only eat meat, not sweet potatoes."

The Little White Wolf whimpered several more times in agitation.

Seeing this, Jiang Feng gave it a piece of sweet potato too.

The Little White Wolf devoured it quickly.

After finishing, the Little White Wolf looked expectantly at Jiang Feng, eyes full of longing.

"Want more?"

"Aren’t wolves supposed to travel miles for meat?"

Jiang Feng didn’t expect the Little White Wolf to have a fondness for sweet potatoes.

Wolves belong to the canine family, similar to dogs and foxes, with good digestive systems, and eating cooked foods isn’t harmful.

If it were a tiger, lion, or Golden Eagle, they could only be fed raw meat; they wouldn’t eat cooked meat.

Seeing the Little White Wolf so excited, Jiang Feng fed them several more pieces of sweet potato.

With the remaining sweet potatoes and yams, Jiang Feng called Yang Maolin and the others to come out for a snack.

There are five employees at the ranch now, including Jiang Feng, which makes six; others will gradually return after the holidays.

The six of them waited for their foil-wrapped steaks.

As time passed, the fire pit’s temperature gradually lowered, leaving only a trail of smoke wafting above.

Jiang Feng reached out to feel the heat from the fire, finding it lacked intensity, signaling that the organic material had fully burned.

Only a pile of ash remained.

He called two people over, to carry the foil-covered steaks into the dining hall, and set them on the table.

The drone gave a close-up of the steaks. 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖

As the foil was peeled off layer by layer, revealing the beef inside, everyone’s eyes lit up.

The beef had a layer of sauce on the outside, looking not as if it was roasted, but rather steamed and then topped with broth.

Yet the glossy, red-tinted meat effect can only be achieved through roasting.

The sauce had already seeped into the beef under high heat.

The mouthwatering scene easily stirred the appetite.

Prairie cuisine truly lives up to its reputation!

Seeing the beef’s excellent presentation, the chat flooded in.

[Damn, it looks delicious!]

[For a meat lover like me, this is more unbearable than dying!]

[Quick, give me a piece! I said, give me a piece now!]

[Rancher, my roommate is on the brink of death, his dying wish is to eat a piece of the steak you made! Save him!]
