Alright, gather ’round. We’ve got to have a serious talk. This world, our world, it’s gotten soft—softer than a rotten log. Back in my day, there was no room for weakness. We didn’t have time to ponder over “lab-grown food-like substances” or fancy packaging that promises health but delivers garbage. Nah, what we had was real food. The kind of food that made men out of boys, the kind of food that fueled the back-breaking work of chopping down trees and building the very cities you live in today.
Do you want to be strong? Do you want to thrive, not just survive? Then you’ve got to get back to the food that built this country.
The Lumberjack Diet: Fuel for the Strong 
Let me take you back to the early 1900s, deep in the woods of Maine. Some smart folks—researchers, they called themselves—decided they wanted to know how the Canadian lumberjacks there managed to do what we did day in and day out. So, they studied us. And what did they find? Well, aside from the fact that we worked like beasts, they saw that we consumed anywhere from 6,000 to 8,000 calories a day. That’s right—*6,000 to 8,000 calories*! But it wasn’t just any old calories. No sir, it was the kind of food that fueled our fire: salted beef, pork, hearty fish, mountains of potatoes, and, of course, the legendary baked beans.
Now, this wasn’t about gourmet dining. We weren’t eating to impress anyone. We ate to survive, to push our bodies to the limit and beyond. And those beans? Let me tell you something, they weren’t just a side dish—they were the backbone of our diet. We cooked them in a way that would make your modern chefs weep: in a bean-hole, buried under the earth, slow-cooked to perfection. The result was a meal that gave us the strength to swing an axe all day and still have energy left to make it back to camp. If you’re serious about getting strong, you’ve got to start thinking like a lumberjack. Forget the junk on the grocery store shelves and get back to the food that really matters.
The Modern Food Crisis: A Slap in the Face to Our Heritage 
Fast forward to today, and what do we have? Rows upon rows of processed crap, designed to keep you weak, sick, and dependent. This isn’t food—it’s a betrayal of everything our forefathers fought to build. You think those men who built the railroads, cleared the forests, and forged the steel would have survived on today’s so-called “nutrition”? Hell no! This modern food isn’t just unhealthy—it’s a curse. It keeps you hooked, dragging you down into a cycle of weakness, obesity, and disease. It’s time to break free.
A Recipe for Real Strength: Bean-Hole Beans with Salted Beef
Now, I ain’t one to just stand here and rant without offering a solution. You want to reclaim your strength? You want to get back to the roots that made this country great? Then start by eating like a lumberjack. Here’s a recipe straight from the woods, with a modern twist. This isn’t some fancy dish—it’s real food, the kind that’ll put hair on your chest and fire in your belly.
Ingredients: 
- 2 pounds of dry beans (Marfax, Yellow Eye, or whatever you can find)
- ½ to 2½ pounds of salted beef (don’t skimp, you need that protein)
- 1 medium onion, sliced
- 3 tablespoons of molasses (just enough sweetness)
- 1 teaspoon dry mustard (if you’ve got it)
- 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
- ½ to 2 teaspoons sea salt (depending on how salty your beef is)

Instructions:
1. **Soak the Beans**: Cover them in water and let them sit for 6-8 hours. You want them good and plump.
2. **Prepare the Bean-Hole**: Dig a pit deep enough for your kettle, and wide enough to hold a fire.
3. **Kindle the Fire**: Get that fire going at least 18 hours before you plan on eating. Keep it burning hot for a couple of hours.
4. **Parboil the Beans**: Cook those soaked beans until their skins start to wrinkle.
5. **Layer the Beans**: Start with onions at the bottom of the kettle, then layer in your beans and salted beef.
6. **Season**: Mix up some bean broth with organic molasses, mustard, and spices. Pour it over the beans, making sure they’re just covered.
7. **Cook in the Bean-Hole**: Put the lid on tight, bury that kettle in the pit, and cover it with coals and dirt. Let it cook for at least 12 hours.
This is the kind of meal that’ll keep you going when the going gets tough. A meal that’s been fueling hard men for generations. It’s time to bring it back.
