0:00:02 > 0:00:04It's great to be back.
0:00:04 > 0:00:05My name is Matilda...
0:00:05 > 0:00:08- ALL:- Tilly! - ..but people call me Tilly.
0:00:08 > 0:00:11- HE LAUGHS - Tilly!- Tilly!
0:00:11 > 0:00:13I'm crazy about cooking...
0:00:13 > 0:00:15Mmm.
0:00:15 > 0:00:17Deliciousness! Om-nom!
0:00:17 > 0:00:19..mad to mess about...
0:00:22 > 0:00:25..and I've got the most embarrassing family EVER.
0:00:25 > 0:00:26Says who?
0:00:26 > 0:00:28- Is it true you have a boyfriend? - DAD LAUGHS
0:00:28 > 0:00:30THEY LAUGH
0:00:30 > 0:00:31Says who?
0:00:31 > 0:00:33You're so annoying!
0:00:33 > 0:00:34Dad's the chef.
0:00:34 > 0:00:36Matilda, where's my frying pan, please?
0:00:36 > 0:00:38But I've taken over the kitchen in this house.
0:00:38 > 0:00:41- What are you doing?- I'm looking for my frying pan. Tilly!
0:00:41 > 0:00:42Tilly rules, OK?
0:00:42 > 0:00:46- Jack!- I found it. No, no, serious... - No, I found it! I dug it up.
0:00:50 > 0:00:52I'm in sunny LA...
0:00:52 > 0:00:54Ooh!
0:00:54 > 0:00:56..doing what makes me happy -
0:00:56 > 0:01:00cooking like mad and writing my food blog.
0:01:00 > 0:01:03We're hitting the road to find out what it's like to be
0:01:03 > 0:01:05real-life cowgirls and cowboys.
0:01:05 > 0:01:07MUSIC: Rawhide by Frankie Laine
0:01:07 > 0:01:13# Rollin', rollin', rollin' Rollin', rollin', rollin'... #
0:01:13 > 0:01:15- MUM:- Guys, do you want some bandannas?- Oh, yes, please.
0:01:15 > 0:01:18- JACK:- Yes, please! - Aw, yes, thank you.
0:01:18 > 0:01:19- DAD:- Woohoo!
0:01:22 > 0:01:26We're in the actual Wild West, where the cowboys lived
0:01:26 > 0:01:29and the Gold Rush happened. It's amazing!
0:01:29 > 0:01:32And one of the things I've always wanted to do
0:01:32 > 0:01:35is cook like a cowboy on a real campfire.
0:01:35 > 0:01:36But the big question is...
0:01:40 > 0:01:41- Tilly!- Yeah?
0:01:41 > 0:01:43Watch out for the rattlesnakes.
0:01:43 > 0:01:45# Rawhide! #
0:01:48 > 0:01:50Let's go. Cowboys and cowgirls, let's go.
0:01:50 > 0:01:51I see horses.
0:01:54 > 0:01:56We're going to be rounding up scary bulls
0:01:56 > 0:01:59at a real ranch in the middle of the desert.
0:01:59 > 0:02:01Snake! Ha.
0:02:01 > 0:02:04'Big sis, Megan...' Love you, Meg.
0:02:04 > 0:02:08'..is off to build a campfire for me to cook up a cowboy feast.
0:02:08 > 0:02:10'Sizzling shovel steaks
0:02:10 > 0:02:12'and delicious vegetable ratatouille,
0:02:12 > 0:02:16'all cooked cowboy-style.'
0:02:16 > 0:02:18First, we're coming face-to-face with the bulls.
0:02:18 > 0:02:20We're going to have to round them up.
0:02:20 > 0:02:22They're very placid right now but, er, no,
0:02:22 > 0:02:25I mean, they're serious machines.
0:02:25 > 0:02:26BULL MOOS
0:02:26 > 0:02:29- Get down.- Time to saddle up!
0:02:31 > 0:02:34Apparently, she's really fast.
0:02:34 > 0:02:36So, what's the difference between English and Western riding?
0:02:36 > 0:02:38The saddle's completely different.
0:02:38 > 0:02:42'The saddles here have lower stirrups to make riding more comfy.'
0:02:42 > 0:02:45And your reins - you always keep them nice and loose.
0:02:45 > 0:02:48'Normally, when I ride, I wear a hat for protection
0:02:48 > 0:02:50'but here they're very traditional -
0:02:50 > 0:02:52'it's cowboy hats and bandannas...'
0:02:52 > 0:02:54Hello, Splash.
0:02:54 > 0:02:56..Wild West style.
0:02:56 > 0:02:57Ooh.
0:02:57 > 0:03:00Right, let's learn to ride like cowboys.
0:03:00 > 0:03:03Turn him around by going straight across on his neck.
0:03:03 > 0:03:05Like this...
0:03:07 > 0:03:10So, when you're walking, you put your toes up
0:03:10 > 0:03:12and heel go down and go, "Whoa!"
0:03:12 > 0:03:13And release right away.
0:03:13 > 0:03:15Oh!
0:03:15 > 0:03:20- Because if you don't release, then he starts backing up like this.- OK.
0:03:20 > 0:03:21And then thank him.
0:03:21 > 0:03:23Always thank your horse and take good care of it
0:03:23 > 0:03:25and he will take good care of you, too.
0:03:25 > 0:03:28Hey-oh!
0:03:28 > 0:03:29Whoa, Jack!
0:03:31 > 0:03:33Whoa.
0:03:33 > 0:03:35'I'm ready to wrangle those bulls.'
0:03:35 > 0:03:37It's so fun.
0:03:38 > 0:03:40If you can stick them together.
0:03:40 > 0:03:45Megan's roped in a couple of ranch hands to help build the campfire.
0:03:45 > 0:03:48Look, it's my first fire! I'm so happy.
0:03:48 > 0:03:52Her new cowgirl friend even goes to school in the desert.
0:03:52 > 0:03:54- We actually get to ride horses to school this year.- Do you?
0:03:54 > 0:03:57- Yeah.- Could you imagine pulling up to school on a horse?
0:04:06 > 0:04:10Here we go. They're only small bulls but they look really scary.
0:04:10 > 0:04:14Our job is to round them up and get them into the pen.
0:04:14 > 0:04:16- Oh, here we go. Our aim is to use... - SPLASHING
0:04:16 > 0:04:18..all of our horses
0:04:18 > 0:04:21to get those bulls inside the pen.
0:04:21 > 0:04:24- Yes. Remember, you have to be louder, though.- Yes.
0:04:24 > 0:04:26You have to yell at them.
0:04:26 > 0:04:29- I'm not very good at yelling.- Aw.
0:04:29 > 0:04:31Yeah, right, Dad!
0:04:31 > 0:04:33Let's go.
0:04:33 > 0:04:35Oh, my gracious!
0:04:37 > 0:04:39Ah! They're heading right for us.
0:04:39 > 0:04:44- Ah! Go! - Go, Dad. Hey! Hey-hey!
0:04:44 > 0:04:46Ah!
0:04:46 > 0:04:48Oh!
0:04:48 > 0:04:49Dad!
0:04:49 > 0:04:51Stay back. Stop, stop, stop!
0:04:51 > 0:04:53- Go.- Come on!
0:04:53 > 0:04:55No!
0:04:55 > 0:04:56Come on, let's go, Jack.
0:04:56 > 0:04:59Whoa, whoa, whoa.
0:04:59 > 0:05:02Tilly is doing awesome because that horse likes to go
0:05:02 > 0:05:05and she's really riding like a cowgirl.
0:05:05 > 0:05:08No, no, no, no, no!
0:05:08 > 0:05:10'Yee-ha!'
0:05:10 > 0:05:12Ah!
0:05:12 > 0:05:14- COWBOY:- Yay! - Woo!
0:05:16 > 0:05:18Good job, guys.
0:05:18 > 0:05:19Well done!
0:05:22 > 0:05:25Now, I'm making a feast fit for hungry cowboys.
0:05:25 > 0:05:29Wow, Meg's done a great job on the fire.
0:05:29 > 0:05:30Now it's time to marinate the steaks.
0:05:35 > 0:05:38I call this next dish "shovel steaks"
0:05:38 > 0:05:40because you cook them on actual shovels.
0:05:40 > 0:05:41But I've never done it before
0:05:41 > 0:05:44so I'm crossing my fingers and toes that it works -
0:05:44 > 0:05:47otherwise, we're all going hungry.
0:05:47 > 0:05:49I'm going to make a marinade for the steaks
0:05:49 > 0:05:53and it's quite a simple marinade but it still tastes delicious.
0:05:53 > 0:05:56'The easiest way to marinate is to ingredients in a plastic bag.'
0:05:56 > 0:06:00I'm going to add in some Worcestershire sauce,
0:06:00 > 0:06:03'soy sauce...mustard powder...'
0:06:04 > 0:06:07I just added a pinch cos you don't want too much.
0:06:07 > 0:06:09'..the juice of a whole lemon...'
0:06:09 > 0:06:12By rolling it, it makes it easier for the juices to come out.
0:06:14 > 0:06:15'..a good sprinkle of salt.'
0:06:15 > 0:06:18And then a big giant pinch of pepper.
0:06:18 > 0:06:21Ooh, not that big.
0:06:21 > 0:06:23Now, I'm going to put in the steaks.
0:06:27 > 0:06:28Zip that up.
0:06:28 > 0:06:31'Give it a shake and leave for at least half an hour
0:06:31 > 0:06:33'so the yummy flavours soak into the meat.'
0:06:37 > 0:06:39Woo!
0:06:39 > 0:06:41To be a real cowboy, you need to be able to throw a lasso.
0:06:43 > 0:06:45- COWBOY:- There we go. - BELL RINGS
0:06:45 > 0:06:47Holly's got it. Next, Jack.
0:06:47 > 0:06:49Turn your wrist around.
0:06:49 > 0:06:51Basically, if you were drawing a circle.
0:06:51 > 0:06:53You're turning your wrist all the way around.
0:06:54 > 0:06:56- Go, Jack.- Turn your wrist. - Don't let us down.
0:06:56 > 0:06:58Come on, Jack!
0:06:59 > 0:07:02- ALARM BUZZES - All the gear and no idea.
0:07:04 > 0:07:07- ALARM BUZZES - OK, well, off you go.- Off you go!
0:07:07 > 0:07:10Here comes Dad, desperate to beat Jack - as usual.
0:07:11 > 0:07:14BELL RINGS
0:07:14 > 0:07:17- ALARM BUZZES - Way! Jack, come on.
0:07:17 > 0:07:19Ready, Jack? One...
0:07:19 > 0:07:20Two...
0:07:20 > 0:07:21Three.
0:07:21 > 0:07:23ALARM BUZZES
0:07:23 > 0:07:26BELL RINGS Jack beats Dad!
0:07:26 > 0:07:29I can beat you at almost everything now.
0:07:29 > 0:07:30It's just the cooking now.
0:07:32 > 0:07:36When you do campfire cooking, it's best to keep things simple -
0:07:36 > 0:07:39less to go wrong and simple food can be delicious.
0:07:39 > 0:07:42This is campfire ratatouille.
0:07:42 > 0:07:45You just start by chopping your favourite vegetables.
0:07:45 > 0:07:48I've got my courgette - I've got a green and a yellow one.
0:07:50 > 0:07:52I feel like a cowgirl already.
0:07:56 > 0:08:00More Wild West action as Jack tries to beat Dad at axe throwing.
0:08:00 > 0:08:03But remember - you REALLY can't try this at home
0:08:03 > 0:08:05unless you're with a real cowboy.
0:08:05 > 0:08:08First one in and gets the juicier steak.
0:08:08 > 0:08:09- Well done! - THEY CLAP
0:08:09 > 0:08:13- That's a warm-up, though, it doesn't count.- Warm-up over, competition on.
0:08:14 > 0:08:15All right!
0:08:18 > 0:08:19Aw!
0:08:22 > 0:08:24All right!
0:08:25 > 0:08:28Ooh! Dad and I are drawing.
0:08:28 > 0:08:31This is the final axe - this is the decider.
0:08:31 > 0:08:35- May the best person win.- Let's go.
0:08:35 > 0:08:37JACK LAUGHS
0:08:37 > 0:08:39He just needs to get one hit and then he's got the juicier steak.
0:08:42 > 0:08:44Bad luck, Dad.
0:08:44 > 0:08:46Well, beating Dad...again!
0:08:46 > 0:08:48It just feels great, you know,
0:08:48 > 0:08:50he's just really on the downhill as I'm on the rise.
0:08:53 > 0:08:57'To the chopped onion, aubergine, peppers and tomatoes
0:08:57 > 0:09:00'I'm adding garlic, parsley, thyme and basil.'
0:09:00 > 0:09:03I'm just going to mix it through with my hands now
0:09:03 > 0:09:05and I'm going to add in some olive oil.
0:09:05 > 0:09:07'Some salt.'
0:09:07 > 0:09:09And then some pepper.
0:09:11 > 0:09:13So, once this is all mixed up,
0:09:13 > 0:09:17I'm going to make some foil packages so I can put them all on the fire.
0:09:19 > 0:09:21Ooh, I might need to wash my hand in a minute.
0:09:25 > 0:09:28Ah! My tinfoil's blowing away.
0:09:28 > 0:09:32'You need foil to wrap up the veg...and yourself.'
0:09:32 > 0:09:33I'm wearing the new Armani.
0:09:35 > 0:09:39OK, so, I'm going to put it in then start to wrap.
0:09:39 > 0:09:43Quite nice and tight, and make sure it's covered at the top.
0:09:43 > 0:09:45That is fire-ready.
0:09:45 > 0:09:49So, I'm just going to get some pictures for my blog.
0:09:49 > 0:09:50Check out my recipes and blog
0:09:50 > 0:09:52at the CBBC website.
0:09:59 > 0:10:01Tilly! How you doing?
0:10:01 > 0:10:03So, we've got two spades.
0:10:03 > 0:10:04- Spades? What, to dig a hole? - Shovels.
0:10:04 > 0:10:06If, Jack, you carry the steaks, please.
0:10:06 > 0:10:09- Wait, hold on...we're going to grill the steaks on these?- Yup.
0:10:09 > 0:10:10Aren't they dirty?
0:10:10 > 0:10:13No, cos we're going to put them on the heat now to sterilise, so...
0:10:13 > 0:10:15- Oh, that's a good idea.- Shall we go do that?- Well, let's go, then.
0:10:15 > 0:10:18- Let's go, let's go, let's go. - On there, yeah?
0:10:18 > 0:10:22'I'm letting Dad take over for once because that fire is mighty hot.'
0:10:22 > 0:10:24Tilly, if this works, it'll be a great idea.
0:10:24 > 0:10:26Right, let's put them in.
0:10:26 > 0:10:29Cos we'll stick them round the outside of the fire.
0:10:29 > 0:10:30What's in the tinfoil?
0:10:30 > 0:10:34It's a ratatouille, so it's got loads of vegetables in.
0:10:34 > 0:10:36'Let the packages cook for about ten minutes.'
0:10:36 > 0:10:38- Here we go, guys.- Hold that, please.
0:10:38 > 0:10:43'Time to find out if you CAN cook great food without pots and pans.'
0:10:43 > 0:10:44Perfect.
0:10:44 > 0:10:46Wow!
0:10:46 > 0:10:47Yay!
0:10:47 > 0:10:49Make sure it doesn't fall, Dad.
0:10:49 > 0:10:52Sometimes it IS great to have dad around.
0:10:52 > 0:10:54- Your dad's a genius.- What?!
0:10:54 > 0:10:57- Your dad's a genius! - I came up with this.
0:10:57 > 0:10:58Excuse me.
0:10:58 > 0:11:01How would you like your steak temperature? Medium rare?
0:11:01 > 0:11:04- Medium rare, please. - Well...I mean, seriously!
0:11:04 > 0:11:05'Dad's loving it.'
0:11:05 > 0:11:07Look at the sear on that.
0:11:07 > 0:11:10'If you're thinking of cooking steaks on spades in a fire,
0:11:10 > 0:11:13'your grown-ups would like to know about it.
0:11:13 > 0:11:15'Or maybe just use a frying pan.'
0:11:15 > 0:11:17And then we're going to flip them. Oh.
0:11:17 > 0:11:20- Boom!- Erm, I think the spade's burning.
0:11:20 > 0:11:22- Oh.- 'Call the fire brigade!'
0:11:24 > 0:11:26So, maybe next time we should soak the wood on the spades.
0:11:29 > 0:11:31'The steaks are perfect.'
0:11:33 > 0:11:36'And the ratatouille's ready, too.'
0:11:36 > 0:11:39Right, ready for the moment we've all been waiting for -
0:11:39 > 0:11:41to carve these babies. Let's go.
0:11:41 > 0:11:43- Look at them! - Can I please carry them?
0:11:43 > 0:11:46- Oh, no, but can I slice them? - They're my... No!
0:11:46 > 0:11:47- Daddy, let go.- It was my idea.
0:11:47 > 0:11:52'Dad and I just love food so much we're always arguing about it.'
0:11:52 > 0:11:55- I'll sharpen the knife for you. - Put the knife down.
0:11:55 > 0:11:57They look incredible. I mean, seriously.
0:11:57 > 0:11:59- Can you just go sit at the table? - Dad, sit now.
0:11:59 > 0:12:01- Jack, can you take him please? - Dad, sit down.
0:12:01 > 0:12:02Cos you're stronger.
0:12:02 > 0:12:04Look at those. Let's go.
0:12:04 > 0:12:06Right.
0:12:06 > 0:12:07For me.
0:12:07 > 0:12:11- Oh, no, you don't serve yourself first.- I do.
0:12:11 > 0:12:13Medium rare. Look!
0:12:17 > 0:12:20Tills, these vegetables are amazing.
0:12:20 > 0:12:21I love these.
0:12:21 > 0:12:23- Good job, Tilly. - Good job, Tilly!
0:12:23 > 0:12:27Mmm-mmm-mmm. The steak is good.
0:12:27 > 0:12:29Campfire cooking rules, OK?
0:12:29 > 0:12:32The vegetables are delicious.
0:12:32 > 0:12:34I can't believe that you cooked them like that.
0:12:34 > 0:12:37Cooking out back - there's something quite nice about eating food
0:12:37 > 0:12:39- in a desert.- Please don't make me sleep out here.
0:12:39 > 0:12:42- There's too many snakes and spiders. - I'd love to camp out here.- No.
0:12:42 > 0:12:45- Come on, then we are proper cowboys. - No!
0:12:45 > 0:12:48The Gold Rush happened right here in 1848,
0:12:48 > 0:12:52so we are going to try and detect ourselves some extra pocket money.
0:12:52 > 0:12:54So, you come across something metal...
0:12:54 > 0:12:56- METAL DETECTOR BEEPS - That's what you want to listen for.
0:12:56 > 0:12:59- OK, Jack and I will use this one. Let's go this way.- OK, let's go.
0:13:04 > 0:13:06Snake hole. Ooh!
0:13:06 > 0:13:09And sometimes go under the bush, as well, darling, you know.
0:13:09 > 0:13:11Possibly, over here used to be like river beds.
0:13:11 > 0:13:13Dad, I think there's nothing, I think you're crazy.
0:13:13 > 0:13:16- METAL DETECTOR BUZZES - Do you hear that?
0:13:16 > 0:13:18Wow, Dad's found something!
