A Unique Acadian Meal for an Overnight Winter Camping Stay at our Wilderness Stone Shelter

- We're excited to bring this video to you and share a piece of our Acadian culture. Sandra and I spent the night at our hybrid bushcraft shelter for some winter camping in the snow and brought along a very special meal. The poutines were premaid and we cooked them on the stove. The hot stove and winter sleeping bags kept us nice and warm. We hope you enjoy the video and we look forward to hearing your thoughts on the Acadian Poutine we brought along.
The Acadian Poutin looks alot like the Swedish dish Kroppkakor, also grated potato around ground beef, serve with lingonberry jam and a side dish of grated white cabbage
Thanks Osa, it's really great to hear of similarities with food from across the ocean. I wasn't aware. 😃
Another picture perfect overnighter! The meal…. Well it looked interesting. I’m sure it was delicious!
Thank you Steve, It was!
You lovely folks have over 72k subscribers. I can see why. I loved this vlog. So well done and so cozy. Your channel will continue to grow. Hope you both stay well and looking forward as always to new content.
Thanks so much Elizabeth! 😊
Well, every day’s a school day, as they say! I had never heard of poutine, so that was so interesting. Great to see you both!
My wife loves the traditional poutine. I hate it. Many Canadians love it tho.
Thank you very much Catherine!
Yes 👍 as everyone has said , really interesting, I would try the poutine looks good. That shelter is worth all the hard work that went into it. Cosy inside, I’m quite jealous. ❤ Keep the vids coming.
Thank you very much Jaqueline! We couldn't be happier with the shelter. It's so much fun!
That was beautiful Sandra,watching you feed the birds.
Thanks Jon! We love those Canadian jays!
Awesome culinary treat! Love everything about that camp. Don't worry about responding to the comments...you've already given us so much. 👍😎🇨🇦🙏📷💘🔥
Thanks marian. It is really appreciated. I do love responding to comments. It's nice to have a chat with you all. Wish there was more time in a day.😄
Great video! A real meat and potatoes meal! I would love to try to make! You guys are fun to watch and thanks for sharing!!!
Hey Southercooker! Thank you very much!
I grew up in northern Minnesota, this looks like my norweigian roots, potato dumplings.
We made with grated potatoes, flour, stuffed with salt pork chopped onions with lots of pepper and boiled.
Ate with melted butter or bacon grease.
Great sliced up and fried in butter the next morning.
My dad called them cannonballs.
It was our traditional Christmas eve dinner with lutefisk.
No I never ate the stinky fish, that was my dad and oldest brother.
Can also make them with mashed potatoes, but I like the regular ones better.
Thanks GMA 56, it's great to hear it's great to hear that similar dishes are more common than I thought. Nice to hear of different variations too!
Great video Mike in beautiful surroundings , you and Sandra bounce off each other so funny, I'd never heard of your meal but I think it looked tasty 😋
Thanks so much Lesley, we really enjoy the poutines. A rare treat!
Your videos make me so happy! I really enjoy watching you!
Very glad you liked it SharKeisha!
Setup is so awesome. Looks comfy
Thank you Brenda, we love that shelter!
schön ein neues Video von euch, Freu mich immer euch sehen zu können. Danke das ihr mich/uns unterhaltet. Liebe Grüße aus Rostock an der Ostsee in Deutschland, René
nice a new video from you, I'm always happy to see you. Thank you for entertaining me/us. Greetings from Rostock on the Baltic Sea in Germany, René
Greetings from New Brunswick René! Thank you very much!
Awesome shelter, love it
Sure looks like you're having so much fun 😌👋👋👋😊👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thank you Mike and Sandra for giving us a great video. I was wondering what putine was . Now I know. I enjoyed this video . I can't believe you still have snow on the ground .. We haven't had any in awhile now. We got an ice storm in December. A little bit of snow in January . Thanks for sharing this video. Stay safe
Thank you Terrie! Yup, snow is still falling here.
The Poutin looks good.
Such a cool camp setup. Looks like you had a great time. Enjoyed watching. Thanks.
Thank you Eventyrsoren Denmark ! It was a lot of fun. Love going there.
This is exactly why We love you guys! Everything is different and makes you want to watch more. As a fellow Canadian - Ontario born and raised- I commend you on a great video. I have to get out there and make one of those shelters! Just love it! Check out boss of the swamp - he has a great outhouse made from a tarp that looks like a tipi.
Cheers from NB Ted! Thank you very much!
Looking forward to the Fricot and/or Donair episode!😁
😄😄 We've had Fricot...thanks for the Donair idea! Cheers UB!
Found your channel for the first time. Enjoyed watching it here in Texas. The scenery was stunning & of course I wish we had more snow.
Hey Timmy, glad you found us 😀! Thank you so much!
I would love to try one of those poutines. It would be new to me.
Thank Harry, it's a pretty unique meal.
Good day from your neighbor in Maine!! Poutine is divine!
Thanks Marianne, they were pretty good, hello from NB!
the poutine looked so good to me ,i searched and got the recipe, i will be making some ty
I hope you enjoy it if you end up making some Phyllis. I do recommend sugar (brown or white) though Sandra prefers with just salt and pepper.
I love those! In Quebec we call them "boule de neige" (snow ball) or "grand-père" (grand father). When Sandra cut the first one, the right side of your poutine looked like a face! Keep up the videos, good work. Take care. ❤️
😄 Thank you Alain!
We used to spend summers camping in New Brunswick. Mostly on the Mirimichi. We made friends with an Acadian family who introduced us to this dish. As kids I can say it took some getting use too. As adults we love it.
Nice to see you both out enjoying yourselves. Mike you're chair made 😂😂it.
Hope to see Sandra and you out again for more than one night
Another great video.
hey Felisha! we appreciate that!
i love it .
Supper looked delicious!
Going to give it a try
Thanks Darrell, not everybody likes it but I hope you enjoy!
Acadian Poutin sounds absolutely delicious!
lets look again at the fun hug :)
Well, you two
Good food, I like it a little more spicy, but no matter what, I can’t do without chili. You do not need a new camping chair, 20 cm round bar in the tube, with the axe back pressed well and you have done it.
Greetings from Frankfurt, stay healthy, take care of you, a nice video, have fun, you two.
Thank you Gerold! Greetings from Canada!
Good afternoon from Syracuse NY USA everyone thank you for sharing your adventures
I loved the video guys thanks for sharing guys and that meal looked good I'd try it.
Glad you enjoyed it Wendy!
Hello Mike and Sandra! Love that shelter.. I have heard o the Acadian meal before,, I watch several you tubers from Canada.. Love the birds.. LOL! Great video I really enjoyed it.. thank you
Hey Linda, thanks! Love those Canadian Jays!
Like always Welcome back! Both of you are a joy to see. And like i said before i know i seem a little selfish, But i don't like sharing you two with anyone lol lol I could watch you all day long. Thank you for your videos....
Hi Richard, thank you very much. Happy to see you still following us after all this time!
@@IamOutdoorsy I been with you two for 3 year now and ALWAYS enjoy all your videos I just don't like any other person to be the state in YOUR videos lol lol I know that is selfish! BUT you two are my baby to watch! lol lol lol And not being rude if i wanted to watch other people on a camping trip I would watch their channel and not yours... So my two baby hugs and high fives lov yu both!!!
The new shelter looks like the most spacious and comfortable by far! You two always have fun but it's nice to see you so at ease, just warm and dry. not cramped.
Would love the recipe and the cooking time sounds like a lovely meal
Unfortunately we didn't make them ourselves. They were purchased from a lady who sells them from her house in a small town.
Hey Mike and Sandra, so nice, to see another video.. makes me miss my off-grid trailer/cabin in Haliburton Forest... I have only been up once this winter. Not able to get up there as much due to some financial difficulties this winter, but I am hoping to get back there again soon in the next couple of weeks. Our place is 12km into the forest, so I drive an ATV to our place in the winter pulling a sleigh, and my snowmobile is kept at the camp site, if I want to go for a ride. Have fun, and stay safe, and thanks for the authentic view of poutine! Maybe next time you should do 'pâté chinois' - and talk about the history of that meal!
Hi David. that sounds like a really great spot. Hope you get the chance to head back soon! It's great to have a place to go for a relaxing trip!
Great video. Never heard of poutin. I've had French fries with cheese and gravy before.
Thanks Tilly! Then you've had Quebec poutine. 😀
I would love to try your meal
Would love to try your poutine. Looks like ham and potatoes.
I would be using that bucket as a nighttime latrine.
When Sandra cut that dirty snowball in half 2 old men’s faces appeared!! 😂
😄😄
Hi Sandra we missed you
Hi Naydena 🙋♀️
I Will sure try to make the poutine
First thought, oh I bet it will be rappie pie. Not quite but close I guess Haha 👍🏼👍🏼
😀Close!
I have to try this it looks yummy to me. Haggis isn’t pretty either but tasty. Thanks for the inspiration ❤️🇨🇦
Thanks No chill Gaven! You are correct, we eat it for the taste, not the looks 😄
I so enjoy your videos. The food looked delicious
Thanks for another great video sandra&Mike!!Have never tried the POutine(hope i spelled this right),but if its in front of me im sure id enjoy it.Stay Safe you guys and God Bless!!
Thanks Brian, you spelt it right! 🙋♂️🙋♀️
Im from Bathurst NB. I’m French Acadian and know all about poutine.
Bein la s'teur....hallo Brenda!🙋♂️🙋♀️
love you lots
Thank you very much Naseem! 🙋♂️🙋♀️
It looked really nice
been 50 years the last time i had it at home .as kids mom would make this every weak for us :)
Nice video totally enjoyed it.
Not like you already don't have enough projects but you should consider making a cover or a flap over the entrance zipper to protect it. May be something similar to the roll up cover over the chimney hole. Just a suggestion.
Thanks Fred, a flap is in the plans for next season!
Hola dónde estaban asia mucho que no los veía salir en sus videos soy fanática de sus videos me gustan mucho cuidense mucho bye
Hi Mike & Sandra ,. I don't think I would like that so I will stick to the french fries & gravy & cheese !! I Love all your videos 💕. Take care & stay safe
😄 Thank you very much Theresa!
I looked up the recipe on Google because I wanted to see how it's made. I would try it however just with salt & pepper. From Florida & have heard of the other with fries, cheese & gravy. Would try that too however I like the gravy either on mashed potatoes or on white rice. Use salt pork to season collards, turnips or green beans. Thank you for the videos. Enjoy them very much.
Thank you Kris, glad you liked the video!
As a card carrying Foodie (I had to make my own card lol) I love it when you cook a local meal, food or delicacy. I’ve tried a lot of different foods in my life and I’ve never said no to any offers to try new foods. There have been very few disappointments 😊
“German decent from Pennsylvania” might mean they were Amish maybe? 🤷♂️
That does remind me of a meat filled (usually pork) potato dumping dish my grandmother (of Lithuanian decent) used to make. She’d serve it with gravy made from the meat that stuffed the dumplings.
Hey alan, I'm not familiar with any Amish communities in our area but I could be mistaken.
Thanks for the video! Your "Poutine" approaches what we call "rappie pie" down in SW Nova . Love it. I'm sure I'd like your "poutine" just as much; 'specially in a beautiful warm shelter in the woods. Love what you guys do. Another woods delicacy might be what we call a "boiled dinner" which could be cottage roll or corned beef cooked in a pressure cooker with cabbage, potato, carrots and parsnips. Done in the woods it would be hard to beat. stay safe you two and thanks again!
Thank you very much Frank! I have been wanting to make a stew a the shelter at some point. Though I'm not big on cabbage, I do enjoy a nice beef stew!
The Poutin actually looks good. It looks quite sustaining for outdoor activities.
Thanks Joseph, it's a pretty filling meal.
Thank you so much for showing the poutine. I always wanted to see it, a friend of mine eats it with molasses, so she told me. We have rappie for Christmas but it is more like a pie. Love the smells of it during the holidays
Thank you Christine, they're pretty similar in taste.
Always a pleasure to see you both. Have you heard of Maple Syrup Pudding (Canadian/British-style pudding, where the sauce and the sponge cook together, not cold American-style pudding) because that is SO delicious. I got my recipe from a friend, who got it from her MIL (she was rural Quebecois) and I've never been able to find it in a recipe book, or online. If you'd like the recipe, I will give it to you. Mike? Put a roof over the latrine. For Sandra, who is a lady, and thus, deserves it. :)
OMG the piece on the right looked just like Mike. 🤣
I am a huge potato fan. This must be good. I think I would try it with a gravy. Just don't know about sugar. 😆 Aha, there is a German connection as well. That helps to explain the potatos.
😄 I gotta have the sugar!
I have deep family roots from all over New England and my mother's side deeply associated with Calais Maine. They extend into St. Stephens and over to Nova Scotia and New Foundland. Not sure if my sister's husband would be Acadian but he is of French Canadian decent, That area of Canada and New England have a lot of shared history some good and some not so good and relatives.
You might enjoy the book Barkskins, by Annie Proulx. A very long, complex story about all the things you mention but well worth it. Warning: it's often gruesome & heartbreaking but also uplifting & beautiful. She also wrote another great book based in Newfoundland. Shipping News?? I'm an old woman in a dreary 🇨🇦 nursing home filled with dementia patients & I get pretty confused myself at times 😵💫! One more thing-you might enjoy a similar wilderness channel set in the Northwest Territories by a lovely guy, Jay Legere. 👋from Ontario.
@@Claudia-up6hr Thank you for the recommendations, Claudia. Sorry to hear that you face such heartbreak in your living conditions. I am getting older where I can see that coming for me also. May god bless you!
Thank you Lisa, I'm quite familiar with Maine, being directly south of New Brunswick. Beautiful state with a great wilderness!
Great video! I am glad you enjoyed your poutine but I think I still preffer the fries. 😊
😄I understand
wishing in Vancouver bc i had some :)
I was so happy to see a new video. I really enjoyed it. I have never ever heard of poutine. The name would scare me off. 😆 🤣 😂 I did find it interesting that Sandra likes salt and pepper on it and you prefer sugar.
Thanks ThoughtzbyTreee, I've always had a sweet tooth. Sandra's more into savory. Mostly it's how we had poutine growing up.
When you unwrapped the "poutine" my first reaction was haggis. lol.
Hey Mike and Sandra hope all is well, actually the food looked pretty delicious and I'm starting to feel the new shelter at first I didn't think the top was going to hold up but it look sturdy very sturdy
Hey jac! I really love that shelter. It is holding out great!
Mike, you can slice up the poutin & fry it for breakfast, served with salt & copious amounts of butter.
Two words concerning the chair DUCT TAPE lol.
😄
I'm not going to lie, it doesn't look very appetizing. :)
But probably almost everywhere in the world there are local foods that do not look very appetizing to someone who is not from the place, but which are very delicious to those who are used to them, and probably many of the "foreigners" will like them too after trying them.
Greetings from Transylvania, Romania!
Greetings from Canada Cristian! You're not wrong. If you grew up with it, you likely enjoy them.
Looks like a traditional dish from the Alps (I know them from Switzerland, Bavaria, Austria etc). Maybe the Mennonits brought them? They call it “Kartoffelknödel” in German and there are variations as well with different kind of fillings might be sweet or salty or even cheese and as well with gravy. Agreed: love it or hate it 😉 Personally I don’t like that feeling when eating potatoes getting that “creamy”. 😂
Wow thanks Anne! I looked it up and seems very similar.
I had saved up viewing your last two posts, I love it when I can sit down and watch you guys having fun on your property.
With regards your open outdoor loo, have you considered building a closed in long drop loo?
Keep the videos coming 😊
Have you heard of Norwegian Klubb? Not quite he same, but involves potatoes on the outside, and salt pork on the inside. 🇳🇴
Nice, sounds pretty similar!
cool
J’aime l’Acadie
Merci Norm!
Like that meal looks tasty but we don’t have it in Ireland
Thanks andy! If you like poutine, you love it. If you don't, you hate it. 😄
i know . wish i had some .
The ingredients sound yummy, the appearance not so much. Interesting…thanks for sharing.❤
😄 Not pretty but we love'em! Thanks Diane.
❤
Hi Jim!! 🙋♂️🙋♀️
What about putting some plywood up against the latrine to prevent ice buildup. So it can be cantilevered up easily to gain access. Just something easy to pick up and move aside. Ice would still play a role but maybe not that bad. Crazy old lady thinking out loud.
Not a bad idea Sandra! Though we'll likely need to dig out either way. Cheers from a crazy couple! 🙋♂️🙋♀️
i know :)
Gotta be honest that did not look very appetizing but I am sure if you grew up on that it is a total comfort food....I would be willing to try it for sure...the outside almost looked like a gelatin
😄😄 No worries Kristin, that's a common reaction. It's an odd texture, but we love it!
A sprinkle of sugar on top, yummy..
That's how I like it! Cheers jim!
I love all of your videos and have been subscribed for 3+ years. Question about the latrine challenge... why not add a couple logs to the top (wow, absolutely no pun intended) instead of chipping out the ice at foot level?
Thanks a lot for being with us for so long Craig! The latrine is actually 2 to 3 feet up. Just a lot of snow in the area.
We Cubans have something called PAPA RELLENA. Something like it.ade out of potato and whatever goes I the middle.
Sounds pretty good!
U guys Neto make a proper outhouse lol
Well, I found out the difference between the Boreal forest and the Acadian forest. The Acadian forest is where deciduous trees meet the coniferous trees. The Boreal forest consists of coniferous trees.
👋😎👍
👍👍⛺🍻
can't fine it in Vancouver. and my people are Acadian .
That looks good. Can you attach the recipe?
I NEVER HEARD OF IT
We call that klube
Nice! I looked it up and it's pretty similar.
Why don’t you put a roof over the latrine ?
Do you happen to know what the difference is between the Acadian forest and the Boreal forest, in terms of tree species? The two look the same to me but I suspect there is a difference, just haven't found the answer to satisfy my curiosity.
I was going to check with a good friend who's into forestry but I saw that you posted a reply already. Thanks Live Life!
@@IamOutdoorsy I always thought the Boreal forest consisted of both coniferous and deciduous trees. But it doesn't and that's where my confusion originates.
SORRY GUYS, BUT I DON'T THINK THE POUTINE IS FOR ME. I WILL TAKE YOUR WORD, THAT IT IS DELICIOUS...GREAT VIDEO THOUGH!
It looks like the German dish Galoshgie ??
Thanks Darrell, it's been great hearing for folks from around the world with similar dishes. I had no idea!
