This is how you make your pack lighter snd trip brighter. Pack a petsonal chef, have them slog in the food AND cook it. Amazing trail hack Dan, thank you!!
Heck yes! It's even more stylish if you can get the personal chef to carry all of their kitchen stuff on their head.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Chuck Wagon!
I'm requesting a re-do. This time I want to see the food/prep stuff being unloaded and loaded into the backpack and I want to see the dishes being done. None of this Magic mess less Cooking. It looks yummy!
Nothing come for free :)
Great suggestion!!! Me too!
So I can stop eating freeze dried meals, by making friends with a 5 star chef that also likes backpacking.
It's super easy everybody can do it, although you should start questioning the fresh ingredients on day 5 :)
@@uniktbrukernavn also pretty much everything was extremely inefficient in a calorie/weight/volume ratio. Probably won't have space in your pack to make it to day 5.
Loved your reaction to the whole
“Mushrooms grow in the forest so they don’t need refrigeration “. Absolutely hilarious.
Yes, hilarious and very endearing. Most also have anti bacterial and anti viral properties too so many don't easily rot.
grocery mushrooms probably came from a farm grown on horse manure lol
Lol his face 😂
... and there are a lot of deadly-poisonous species which can be easily mistaken for edible ones. Theoretically all mushrooms can be eaten, but some of them can be eaten only once :)
For sure, mushrooms may just dry out a bit in your pack over a couple of days. No worries there.
as a fellow chef and backpacker, even I'm thankful for all these recipes. just having something new to add to your collection of ideas is great
Next video should be how you guys are cleaning up all the dishes.
With water and soap is optional.
The pleasure of Kayak camping, always able to wash my dishes easily.
🤣
Bring some tortillas and use them to mop up the dishes. Then rinse with water.
Please no soap in the wilderness. It will get into the water.
With your Tongue
I think you need to do more with Chef Corso. You and he are an awesome duo!
Dan, this is my favorite video of yours, of all time. I absolutely loved it. I am not a backpacker, but I camp and I like to be prepared for emergency situations so I love your channel. But this video was gold. Thank you and your personal chef!
I don’t usually comment, but this is was an especially good video. Bring this guy back!
I literally never comment... but this was a great vid, so I just have to say it 😁
I went to a BSA High Adventure Team training which included a cooking course with a chef. The meals were great but.. with a lot of prep. I'm ashamed to say that I have not cooked any of the meals in the training. This inspires me again to try something besides the expensive freeze dried meals. Great location and photography. Dan, good to see you in the west!!
sounds like you've bushwalked my path for me ;D
any tips for someone going to Philmont and wants to get some cooking opportunities?
Dude this is a whole new level.
Yes! This is my jam. I’ve only been backpacking for a couple of years now but I have slowly been incorporating fresh foods and wow! Chef is doing everything I need to get to the next level. Thanks Dan for boosting the signal.
Love this. I made most of our meals before heading out on trail and we had all the AT hikers looking at us and I felt bad I didn’t have extra but love getting new ideas for the next adventure. Thanks!
Perfect timing! I have a backpacking trip coming up here in a couple weeks!! 😊
DO MORE VIDEOS WITH THIS GUY!!!!!! ❤ Love backcountry cooking.
I'm so excited for this. I'm always looking for new backpacking food ideas and can't wait to try some of these recipes out.
This is awesome. Been looking for alternatives and this looks like the real deal! Thank you!
Now that was some inspiration, for the next hike. I did not realize you could rehydrate jerky effectively.
Saw that he was using Qinline reusable bags for his food... tip: if you use the Stasher bags instead, they can withstand boiling water to be poured into them, so if you have a dehydrated meal you want to rehydrate in the bag vs cooking in the stove pot and having to deal with cleaning that out on trail, then these bags are clutch. 👍🏻 Another tip: use a food rehydrating bag cozy... keeps the meal hot while it's rehydrating (Also clutch). I prefer doing this method instead of cooking in the stove pot so that if I'm using my Jetboil the next morning to make coffee, I don't taste flavor remnants of last night's meal.
Thank you for the advice. Are "stasher bags" the brand name? What size do you recommend using?
You guys have to remember that Dan is a weekend warrior, not a thru hiker. He therefore does things on trail that may seem foreign to some hiker, especially the long distance hikers 😉
@@kdavis4910 I'm also a weekend warrior. The Stasher bags are perfect for folks like us, as I don't think they'd be as practical for a thru-hiker.
Do you use the mini stand up stasher bags or medium size ones? I feel like the mega might be too bulky for backpacking but I can't really tell...
@@kdavis4910 This is gold.
Awesome video. Thank you for helping me decide what part of my backpacking experience I need to spice up.
This is hands down your best video of 2021! Keep it up!
A real eye opener. I've been trying to think of meals I can take that cost less and taste better than trail meals and this video along with the website have given me loads of great ideas.
I am so sick of freeze dried meals, this video couldn't come at a better time! Can't wait to try some of these ideas out!
I'm excited for my very first camping trip at 55. I've been soo concerned about my "instant meals", but after seeing this post I know now that there are great options. I have subscribed to Chefs channel and look forward to getting great ideas. It takes a lot to fill me up and have purchased 2 two servings food packs for every meal. Let's hope I can find some recipes that can fill me up with just one.
I'm pretty impressed. This is making me rethink how I backpack
you're only impressed because you were napping when I made Tacos. lol
@@ItsGoodintheWoods true story. I watched the videos and I was like.... when did that happen?
@@BenMcmillen Hahahaha
That was such a good video, and it gave some much inspiration!!! Great idea and video, you keep delivering
How do I get this guy to join all of my backpacking trips and cook for me? 🤣
...pre selection and priorities while mating 😉
Everyone needs Chef Corso at their next backpacking adventure! Love it 😍!!
Love this! Super inspiring, Thanks to you both.
Dan, this is an awesome video. I’m so tired of store bought trail meals. Now a new world is opening up. Thanks!
Dan, this is such a spoiled hiking trip. I'm so jealous. I wish I was so spoiled...Magnificent views, amazing hike, and the food looks great. Keep up the great videos.
Mushrooms in nature are now mad that Dan didn't know they were...in nature. And we just take them home. LOL
The mushrooms are at the campsite, their backs are packed, it’s time to send them home.
Thank you for this video, these recipes look so delicious. I will be trying these! Thank you Chef Corso!
What a great find. will be trying some of the recipes real soon...
Dan, this is good to demonstrate. I've been doing this for about nine years, but I prep everything into a freezer bag cooking method.Rehydrate and eat out of a bag. I can pre-cook meat of choice or use jerky as mentioned. Regular Beef Stroganoff uses purple onions. Dehydrate. Add your own real spices and avoid a bouillon cube.
Trick with freezer bag cooking is slice your dehydrated components thinner, so they rehydrate faster. Also, add more dehydrated milk of cream (mail order) to give it the creaminess you'd typically expect. You can put together just about any meal recipe for freezer-bag dehydrated cooking, get more nutrition, and taste better than any freeze dried store bought meal.
I'm new to backpacking and I'm sold on learning to take real food and ditch the dried!
Wow!
Wonderful content and ideas, I want to order all his cookbooks.
You met him on trail? I discovered his channel a few weeks ago. I’m excited to try some meals.
Last year I played around with lightweight recipes to cook, but it was still almost all rehydrating with some boiling water. This now makes me want to incorporate a few fresh items to bump up the nutrition levels a bit!
Everyday Breakfast - chia seeds, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds with cinnamon and whatever else u want to throw in. Cold soak or throw the hot water or hot chocolate to the mix in the morning.
Some great ideas. When my husband and I travel we cook most our meals. I am always looking new ideas. Thanks
Wow dude, as a cook myself, this really really impresses me. Thanks! SO glad I subbed your channel!
Those all look soooo amazing! My mouth is watering. I have to make all my own backpacking meals because I have celiac and a bunch of food allergies so 99% of freeze dried stuff would kill me. And the selection here in Canada of pre-packaged foods I can eat is extremely limited, and ridiculously expensive! So I dehydrate all my own.
I have a pretty darn good recipe for beef stroganoff too, that I dehydrate and take backpacking. For noodles I use spiralized zucchini 😁 It's up on my channel if anybody is interested.
I love the idea of eggs benny on the trail. I'll have to figure out how I can make them so I can eat them. Challenge accepted! Now I'm heading over to Chef's channel to get some more ideas. I have a 2 week trip later this year and I don't want to only eat beef stroganoff the whole time 😉
Dude! This was awesome! And now I’m starving!😄
A man after my own heart.
And very timely as I just dropped a video for dirtbag eggs Benedict.
That pad Thai looked amazing(it all did!) and it was very inspiring to see when people make eating a part of their trip.
I hope that you took things away with you that you utilise in your future adventures.
My favourite video yet. THANKS
Thank you for enlightening us! This is awesome!!!
Love this video. Good food and beautiful scenery.
This is amazing I will be checking him out for sure.
I enjoyed watching this video. Chef Corso and Dan Becker great stuff. Thank you.
Great to get more ideas. Even if I loved prepackaged meals, my upcoming 7 week hike couldn't be supported by those alone (or even for more than a few meals from them.)
and I'm sold. need the cookbooks STAT!
First season bike-packer, been using your vids for my gear purchases. Great info! Thanks from Northern WI.
So far my favorite video from you!
Awesome video! Tx a lot.
Brilliant video, I like to eat well when out in the open air but have been exploring the cook it at home and pack in a boil-in-the-bag option.
Definitely going to check out the chef's channel, got be some inspiration there
Please make more videos with this guy! Idk why but you guys together are super fun to watch, I could easily watch a whole series where you and hip backpack someplace and you share some tips for backpacking and he shares tips for meals
One of my fav vids of yours so far. I'm a foodie & love to experiment on the trail with dried food, fresh food, hot meals, cold soaking, etc. Have never used a Mtn House or similar dehydrated meal as I've always dried my own food at home. Looking forward to discovering new recipes on Chef Corso's site.
This is what I have been looking for!!!!! so tired of only seeing recipes that require a dehydrator or meal plans that are just bagged meals.
Great meals. Loved the chop sticks with the pad tai. Checking out his channel for summer hiking food.
The MSR windburner series cook system has a bigger head for actual cooking. A friend is a restaurant owner in cali and backpacker and reitred mountaineer talked me into getting one for group trips. Simmering sauces etc is so easy with the cook system. Thanks for the website recommendation and channel.
Good job chef!
Love the video, I always thought the best part of camping is taking in the view and cooking up food with your friends around a campfire
This is great. I was expecting to watch this video and then complain that all of this stuff was going to be way more expensive than a typical freeze-dried meal. Boy was I surprised to see how easy and inexpensive each of these meals can be. Great stuff! :)
This was so cool!
Met Chef Corso and took a class at an Overland Expo last summer. Super cool guy… super awesome recipes! Definitely recommend you grab his cookbooks.
I want to go on one of these trips with the personal chef!
That is amazing, way healthier than I normally eat! Wow!
This has given me food for thought.
Thanks for this!
Thank you. Kind of inspired to do better on my trips.
Thanks! It’s very inspiring 🤜🤛
Wow, he made those look so easy. Healthy and yummy without all the sodium, great.
Fun fact! You don't need chopsticks for pad Thai, they use a spoon and fork in Thailand.
🧡
hes low key a genius . With the pre packaged condiments , looked crazy good too and healthy .
This deserves much more than a thumbs up! Loved the video!! Felt like I was there. Love your content, Dan. I'll keep looking through the comments, but I would love to know the specific trail you were on, looked amazing!
West rim
I really need a personal chef for my hikes!
This is great! I’m a pescatarian and backpacking meals are a serious struggle for me. I’ve already this chef to all my media’s and I’m about to check out his website. I’ve been struggling for two years trying to make my own meals and still eat healthy. I worry much more about nutrients and shelf life than I do about carbs and weight. I hope I can finally up my meal game!!
Can you dehydrate the fish & rehydrate in the field? What about fish pemmican?
Chinese and Asian food stores have a great variety of dried fish packets.
That was pretty cool. Please list some recipes for us so we can try them out too.
Link for the recipes is in the description
I luv the creativeness that backpackers come up with when it comes time for meals! Besides everything looking delicious I kept thinking about the clean up, I would have liked to have seen that part. For me, I have gravitated towardsthe boil-n-bag m method which simplifies the mess of clean pots and pans, etc. Thanks for the video!
So awesome!!
I think I’m gonna be trying some of these recipes before I go out on the trail in a month. Great timing to find this awesome video.
Is there a link for the bags he was using?
My mouth is watering.
Amazing! 🙂
Chef Corso! His recipes have been handy (and tasty) on my camping trips. Check out the carbonara!
Trail chef, what an awesome idea!
This is the way to do it, Dan. I do have chefs book though it's awesome ✨
The food looks great and all but WOW, that hike looks amazing! What trail is this? Start and end points? I need to put this on my list.
The Pinnacle Foods you recommended previously was amazing with their Chicken and Dumplings. Best backpacker food i have had to date.
Could you guys do a more regular camping and cooking series? Topics could include barbecuing and steaks on trail fires and camp stoves, food storage and prep, foraging etc
Interested in the ziplock bags that you cold soaked the breakfast in, brand/source?
Epic scenery and now I'm hungry
Great vid!
Dan, I love this! I don’t hear people talking about the SODIUM levels of the pre-packaged, processed, freeze dried, foods either. Not to mention that they’re super expensive. Vicious cycle when trying to go light. Subscribed. :)
Bouillon cubes are also full of sodium.
Don't you actually need extra sodium while hiking on the trail? Water alone isn't going to replace any sodium your body loses while sweating.
accept the human body DOES need a certain level of sodium. So maybe it's ok?
Freeze dried meals are like Marge Simpson's pork chops - the secret ingredient is extra salt.
I don’t eat freeze dried meals mainly because they’re expensive and I don’t take a stove, although I’d like to try some of the cold soak pre-made meals like Triple Peanut Slaw. The “high” sodium is not a concern - in summer trips, I suspect I’m actually usually not getting enough sodium from my food to balance what I’m losing in sweat, and usually take some salt sticks or chews.
Good on ya guys .
This was so helpful. I ate a pack backing meal and cause of the sodium got up TEN times at night to heed natures call. This was huge! I repeated some of these, beef stroganoff, and while it was not perfect WAY better. Thank you!
🙌🔥
omg that was the best food vid love the ideas jerky was a surprise
This is how I do camp cooking! The bagged meals are great but they don't always have the flavor levels I like.
Man I love this video.
I love this guy. Everyone likes food.
