I love your honesty. It was great to see the cooking. A very real view of camp cooking when it doesn't quite go right. Loving your presentation method and banter. Thankyou very entertaining.
G'day Vernon... Thanks so much! Yeah no need to false it up around here on this channel... what you see if what you get... and half the fun of camping is coming back with stories of when it all goes horribly wrong! haha - Kinda like it did in this one!! hahaha - Thanks for taking the time to leave a comment too... great to have you here! Rob. :)
Cool video mate, well done 👍 It's quite amazing what we have in our backyard eh! Without a doubt SEQ is the best place to live, everything is right on the doorstep and ready to explore. I'll be back to Jimna again for sure.... right after winter has finished 😉🤣 Keep the videos coming, they're awesome. Hopefully one day I can show you how to Camp Oven shepherds pie 😂
Cheers Marty! Yeah, there really is some amazing places right on our doorstep! Don't always need to go a million miles to find a magic spot that's for sure! After winter is probably a good idea... to say it was cold would be an understatement! 😂 Mate... I need all the help I can get with that camp oven! 😂👍 Cheers mate, thanks again for tuning in! Rob. 🍻
Sorry Rob, (not) :) I had to look lol. You have invented Cottage Pie Stew there haha. Yeah you probably shouldnt have added the extra water for a start. Not sure if you did but you should have cooked your filling first, then just added the mashed spud after the filling was cooked. Then you remove the oven from the bottom heat and just finish it all off with lid heat only. Otherwise your filling can bubble up through your top as you found out lol. A sprinkle of cheese to help it brown up a bit doesnt hurt either. But as I always say, "You got to Burn to Learn" and Im sure you learnt a bit by having a go. And what a great camp oven recipe to cook up whilst out enjoying our beautiful bush. Keep it up, I look forward to seeing your next camp oven meal and your new Lid Lifter at work :), hopefully we will end up in the same camp sometime down the track and we could have a bit of a play with some ovens together :) Cheers Kingbrown
Cottage Pie Stew!! Love it! My new signature dish! 😂😂 Yeah, have since learnt that cooking the filling first is the way to go! As you say, adding the mash after the filling is cooked is the winner 😀 Watching your show at the expo, I definitely learnt what you said about cooking from the top down... that had never crossed my mind! 'Burn To Learn' is very true mate! Have wanted to master that dish for a very long time, a perfect winters camp cook-up I feel, and as I have heard you say... the Scottish were the masters at this, and a fitting dish to recognise that I feel. 😎 Am looking forward to giving the Lid Lifter a go! Will be a game changer for sure! 👍 With any luck mate, hopefully come accross you at a camp somewhere... and probably save me from starvation! 😂 Cheers mate, Rob! 👍
No problems at all! So glad you enjoy them, so many places to check out! Am looking forward to bringing more camping trip episodes 😊 it's great fun to film them and its even better knowing people are getting something out of them! Thanks for the kind words Justine! Hopefully see you out there at a campsite somewhere! 😃
G'day Ruby! Thanks for the kind words! Greatly appreciate it 🙂 as you saw in the clip, can highly recommend this spot 👍 thanks for tuning in! More trip videos on the way as well 🤠 cheers, Rob
Savoury mince in a toasty is great but ham, onion, tomato, cheese and beetroot is awesome can’t beat a root 🤣 chicken , cheese and avocado goes awesome too
G'day YES 566, Ohh.. yesm that sounds like a great combo! Never thought to put avocado on it actually... will have to give that a go at the next camp! Yep.. can't beet root hahaha - cheers, Rob 😎
G'day Gary, yeah it really is amazing! You won't be disappointed 🙂🦘 thanks for taking the time to leave a comment mate, appreciate it and hope you enjoyed the clip! More to come 👍 Rob
Brilliant vlog very informative can't wait to check that site out! Ham, cheese, tomato, onion, stacks of pepper and mayo...best Jaffle ever. Also can't beat a baked beans, cheese and onion filling. Classic!
G'day Sherry! Thanks for the kind words! Greatly appreciated! 🙂 I give burgers a go on the latest upload vid - Bribie Island clip, you get to see my incredibly bad cooking skills again 😂 Yeah, it is a magic little getaway there! baked beans and cheese with onion? hmmm, yeah will add that to the list! Sounds delicious! Thanks again for the comment Sherry, great to hear from you! 👍 Rob
Haha - i think that dish needed a lot more than just cheese on top hahaha - little sneak preview though... am heading out on another trip next week, and going to give it another go! Be sure to tune in to that video too... am sure it will be another laugh!! haha 😂 Cheers, Rob
@@TheWandererAUS Will do Rob👍, I love jimna, I went there yrs ago with some friends. There used to be missing persons pics nailed to the trees, apparently they dissapeard in the forest. Some believe the yowie got them, and others believe they met with treacherous ends.. like going for walks and getting lost. Who knows, but i do believe that yowies are there, coz we heard a lot of what they call tree knocking. Which is something that yowies do to communicate with each other. One night when we were asleep we heard this spine chilling scream, like a woman in agonizing pain, which was terrifying, and then we heard and saw the park ranger running into the forest with a rifle and shooting something. To this day we never found out what it was🤔. I'm going back there in July this year, to hopefully have another adventure, but with a little less drama😉.
@@Jenfromtheblock59 Wow! That's incredible! I never knew of those stories. That would have been quite the eventful night indeed! Hopefully this time around, less gunfire... more warm campfire! haha
@@TheWandererAUS yeah Rob I hope so,😬. Did you see the yowie statue in the park at kilcoy?? You can google it. We stopped off there on the way home to have a look, it's very lifelike 🙄.
Awesome work Rob.. my dad used to hand cut back in the day at Jimna Forrest.. one of Qlds best and often forgotten about.. thank you for sharing.. I’m always out there..
G'day mate! Thanks for taking the time to leave a comment! 😎 Oh wow, that is incredible! A tough job for sure! Indeed it is an gorgeous spot, often not thought of as a place to visit! Glad you enjoyed the clip mate! Cheers, Rob 👍
@@TheWandererAUS next time your out there you need to go for a drive and see the waterfalls no one knows about unless someone tells you oh and take a few yabbie traps with some rockmelons in them.. you’ll catch a good feed of red claw as the buggers are huge and good eating, oh and don’t forget a pot to cook them in lol..
G'day Chantel, thanks for taking the time to watch and leave a comment 👍 yeah, that mash was doomed from the start 🤣🤣 another trip video to a different campsite coming on Tuesday 😊 that firepit has been amazing for me... It's by Drifta, an Aussie owned camping store. I highly recommend giving them a look... They sell some awesome stuff! Thanks again Chantel, glad you enjoyed the clip... More laughs to come... Cheers, Rob 🙂
G'day Desmond... haven't really had any dramas so far when camping. If I don't feel safe, or feel as though there might be some undesirables around, I tend to lock most valuables in the car if I go for a bushwalk or something. There hasn't been many instances when I've been camping that I don't feel unsafe or worried about security, which has been great. Always go with your gut feeling, that's how I look at it. Thanks for the question mate... appreciate it! Have you had trouble in the past?
@@TheWandererAUS Hi Rob, haven't really done too much solo camping but i think i might start to do a bit more, just too get out there . Normally a vanner, but thinking the swags good for overnighters. Cheers
@@descowan5410 Absolutely mate! Just get out there is what I say! You will love it! As you know, I have been rocking the swag now for a while, but am thinking of changing my setup to a oztrail or oztent stretcher type swag setup... I haven't purchased one yet, but will be in the next few weeks... so looking forward to giving that a go... I do love my swags, but the space saving you get with a stretcher swag is just too good of a temptation to not try out! Let me know which one you go for mate, keen to hear! 👍
Hi Rob, i have the Kings single swag on a Kings strecher, definitely better off the ground and easier to get in and out off, look forward to seeing what you purchase, cheers Rob
I just wonder who cooks for you at home...lol. Just go to the Pub or local Take away, at least you can cook bacon and eggs and Coffee....lol. Never tried Shepard's Pie but have done lamb roast. I did notice UA-cam has made your videos real grainy low resolution, I think its because you have used a Mobile Phone, I have noticed the same thing with mine but much better if I use a real Camera.
G'day Len, thanks for taking the time to leave a comment mate... appreciate it! Yeah, lets just say the home cooking ain't much better mate! 😂 Lamb Roast sounds amazing tho! Yeah, I noticed that some of the footage is grainy once I put it up on UA-cam, that and the sound is a bit all over the place on this one too... am about to upgrade my editing software and also start shooting with a DSLR as well, so hopefully UA-cam doesn't compress it too much in the future! Thanks again for the comment mate, and glad you enjoyed the clip and no doubt got a laugh out of it 😂👍 Lots more to come! Cheers, Rob 🍻
@@TheWandererAUS Yeah... usually there is more potato than milk and butter in Shepherds Pie topping... but hey, you may have invented a new style of carbohydrate power drink, so dont knock it!
OHH now that's an interesting combo mate! Maybe for the last night... have a feeling that curried egg would upset the neighbours late at night (if you know what I mean) hahaha 😂
@Phillip McCallum The curry scares me - I'd be worried I'd need to do a late night dunny run! haha - the mixing of the cheese in the backed beans or spaghetti is perfection though!
Hi Kelly, great to hear from you!... yeah you are right on that one! 😂 Camping, camping gear, trips away etc... no dramas at all... trying to cook up a feed in the camp oven...and NO IDEA 😂😂 - Thanks for taking the time to say g'day and leave a comment! Cheers, Rob 👍
