[i]Deke Slayton is best known as one of the original Mercury Seven astronauts, a World War II pilot, and a test pilot who flew the F-105. But it turns out that the man was also a pretty good cook. His chili ([URL=http://www.airspacemag.com/daily-planet/dessert-only-pow-could-love-180960887/?no-ist]recipes here[/URL]) is a hearty mix of beans and ground round steak, heavy on the tomatoes and chili powder. We made Apollo astronaut Charlie Duke's Lunar Bread to accompany Slayton's chili. We have a minor quibble with Apollo astronaut Charles Duke's Lunar Bread. Yes, the bread has a solid and rocky "lunar" surface seemingly covered with impact craters. But it's too yellow! Perhaps swapping white corn meal for yellow would help. Otherwise, the dense, flavorful bread went perfectly with Slayton's chili.[/i]
