The Cowboy Way is a tribute to the classic image of the cowboy, old-time lore and its influence on popular culture: Cowboys can trace their roots back to the Spanish vaquero traditions of Mexico, Arbuckle's was the most popular brand of coffee following the Civil War and became a favorite in the Old West; their Ariosa Blend was so popular that most cowboys probably didn't know there was any other brand, The chuckwagon, often called "the original Meals on Wheels," was invented by Texas rancher Charles Goodnight in 1866 when he adapted an army-surplus wagon to serve as a mobile kitchen, The first model of the "cowboy hat," the open-crowned "Boss of the Plains," was made by Stetson in 1865, A cowboy's saddle was his most treasured possession; the saying "he's sold his saddle" meant a cowboy was completely broke, and "he's sacked his saddle" meant that he'd died, Rodeos, the ultimate showcase of cowboy riding skills, date back to antiquity and are the present-day embodiment of the "real" cowboy, Two regions lay claim to a "Cowboy Trail"; Alberta's stretches 456 miles (735 km) from Cardston to Mayerthorpe, and Nebraska's is 321 miles (571 km) from Chadron to Norfolk, The iconic western song "Home on the Range" is considered the unofficial anthem of the American West.
