Field kitchens like these were a popular feature of the German army in WWI (pictured here) through WWII and likely date a LOT earlier; to the troops they were sarcastically known as goulash cannons, because like fieldpieces they were pulled by teams of horses.
There was a joke in the French Army in reference to field kitchens. I paraphrase: "the meat pulled the kitchens. Horse or mule but we only got worried when we were told to..."
These are all awesome, thank you! Had no clue. Pretty nifty although you do wonder how on earth it was cleaned? Seems to me these could become awfully ' iew ' , and quickly.
I have heard of these, but this is the first time I have ever seen one. Quite ahead of its time don't you think???? Move over Domino's and Pizza Hut!!!

It was more than I had- never had heard of them or come across an image before! You just know members here would have, however- especially reenactors who probably build them in their basements. And use them ( except for the missing mules ).
How funny would that be, new delivery options at Domino's? One of these showing up?
