    When you fill up your tank maybe do your dishes right there. Then top off your tank with water. If you have a chance look up egg cookers. I use mine all the time and have one in my camper also. They hard boil eggs super fast with very little water. You can do about 7 at a time.

    Can someone tell me why Ryan doesn't have 1 million subscribers, subscribe to this man yo. He should have minimum 500k subs for his content!

      He's growing and still relatively new. When I first subscribed he was at around 50k and that was around a year ago.

    You have a chili stew, potato is for stews. It’s all good when you cook. 👍🏻🇺🇸☕️☕️

    • @josephdover198
      @josephdover198 19 днів тому +1

      He was right to keep calling it a stew. I'm sure you noticed he didn't put the potatoes in the stew but that's not any type of chili that I've ever had. The beef cuts were stew meat that you could also use for kabobs. Maybe they do things different in Texas. It looks good regardless.

    I tried to tent camp there on an amazing overlook at Lake Meredith a little over a year ago, but the flies were SO bad I had to pack up. It was the worst I'd ever seen, sitting down my legs and arms were covered instantly. Amazing seeing it from another angle, and you can't beat free! Thanks for the amazing video.

    Looked damn good! The nice thing about chili is that it's so versatile! Like corn in it? Roast some up and slice it in! Want it hotter? Easy! I personally love to have some roasted serrano and Anaheim peppers, even hatch green chilis add some pop to it. I grew up in a house that did it with beans, but spice wise we kept it very Tex-Mex. When you have extra mouths to feed, the beans stretch the recipe and can add a lot of extra flavor and texture. I realized I didn't say what type of beans, so stretching out the recipe with some kidney beans bulks up the recipe, and some navy beans or black beans for some flavor. Any beans you like will add a creamier texture to the recipe especially with leftovers. Keep killin it Ryan!

    I've slept in that same campground in the exact same spot. I even made a video about it on my channel because i was shocked how beautiful that spot was and that it was completely free. Especially being in the texas panhandle which is pretty desolate in alot of places. Definitely was one of my favorite spots I've stayed in on the road

    i get so anxious when you cook!
    a bigger cutting board always gives me a huge sense of relief and safety.
    i like that you’re using a nice sharp knife now but it can be weird adjusting. you should put a towel under your cutting board so it doesn’t slide around.

    I always use chipotles in adobo for chili as well. They're nice and smoky and CONSISTENT. With jalapenos you just never know what you're getting. They might be as spicy as a bell pepper or they might melt your face. The chipotles are always the same level of heat so you know what you're working with.

    The biggest difference between Texas Chili is that it’s a whole meal by itself, but New Mexico chile is kinda like a condiment that just goes on everything. Red, green or Christmas style you can put it on any meal to make it New Mexican 😋
