I want to thank you! Alot of videos show many combinations of meals to make, yours is the first I've found that actually explains how the meals are cooked! ♥️
Great video. I like to boil my Raman in my cook pot and then pour it back into my freezer bag to mix in the flavor packet. This helps prevent my prevent my coffee from tasting like Raman for the next several boils.
for Ramen Noodles, I break it up into small pieces and add 1/4 cup Pioneer Country Gravy mix (instead of flavor packet) and 1 Cup boiling water into freezer bag. This is a substitute for Biscuits and Gravy. Also try Prison Burritos. I make mine with Chili Flavored Ramen, broken up, plus 1/2 cup crushed Doritos, plus 1 Beef Stick sliced and 1 cup boiling water. Some prisoners use Cheetos instead of Doritos and some add Cheez Wiz.
3 of my favorites!! We also found powdered soup that pretty amazing!! Chicken wild rice is my favorite. Buy at any grocery store. 5 bucks but it make 4 meals for me!!
Coconut milk powder, stock cube, curry powder. Mix with vegetables and or meat options of choice. Boiled water. Ramen noodles with wild foraged greens :) Flour, flavour of choice (herbs, spices, that left over bit at the back of the cupboard, parmi powdered cheese, cup o soup mix..stock cube, Whatever.) add water to make damper of choice. Cook Rice with coconut milk powder, add sweetener of choice (left over jam, raisins, dried fruit, honey, Macdonalds hotcakes syrup etc) Oats. Plain is cheap.. Add flavour of choice. Could be cooking in fruit or herb tea.. Coffee... Adding nutmeg or allspice or jam or stock cube or whatever. Boil water, add rolled oats. Keep insulated so it cooks. Add flavour. Simple, uses very little fuel or time. Cheap. Foraged greens, add bacon bits. Wilt together and mix into flour to make damper.
I'm not cheap, I'm 'frugal' LOL. All great meal suggestions. #1 is my go to meal for quick & easy. (real) Bacon bits, Spam, Beef Jerky, Dried sausage - all good protein choices for your meals. I also like Uncle Ben's Ready Rice with a protein - although that's not very weight conscious, but I've been known to hike with a cast iron pan before.
I love that you call it pasta ! Thank you. Some told my kids they where making noodles and they where disappointed because to them noodles are Chinese food. But pasta is everything else!! Lol
This is an amazing video bro! Great edit, and great suggestions! Love your intro too. Haha. Ps. Combine meals one and two for the notorious Ramen Bomb! Keep Moving Forward!
Ok where are you from? Definitely Midwest meat and potatoes and humor person. Enjoying your videos. This coming from former Illinois now in Tennessee gal.😊
Oh yah I got dat minnersodaaa accent from tha videyoo lol. I'm from Northern Indiana (90 miles to Chicago) and when we travel, people say we're from Chicago. Something about the pronunciation of the short Os and As haha.
Another option is cook a little extra at home. Freeze in oven proof bags. Pack frozen. Defrost before use and reheat by boiling in water. These are also useful when at home.
@@debprivate7840 that is not accurate. You can take frozen, cooked food and let it thaw. It needs to be reheated and eaten while still cool. I should have stated that clearer. Sorry :)
1. are you broke? A. Yes 2. Or are you just cheap? A. Yes 3. Are you new to camping? A. No 4. Are you lazy? A. Yes 5. Or are you just stupid? A. HeY yOu GuYs!! 😅
I agree. I recently converted to actually making it in the pan. Putting it in small bag does allow you to break the brick and it packs down a little better.
Those plastic bags are not meant to cook in. When you heat that stuff up it leeches a ton of chemicals. Not to mention all the crap that's in the "food" you used. This is about as intelligent as drinking from a beaver pond. Get a dehydrator and use your camp cup. Also you are unnecessarily using a lot of single use plastic.
A few things here. First, there's no evidence that supports the claim that polyethylene leeches harmful chemicals into food when heated to normal cooking temperatures. Secondly, food is food; you don't need to go around saying that instant potatoes are inferior to your dehydrated meals- dehydrators are expensive. Lastly, has it ever occurred to you that you can easily wash and reuse a plastic bag just like any other cookware? Try a higher horse next time.

Intro reminded me of Michael Scott from The Office
LOL. When I was younger, I used to get stopped all the time telling me I looked like the 40 year old virgin.
Prison mike
I want to thank you! Alot of videos show many combinations of meals to make, yours is the first I've found that actually explains how the meals are cooked! ♥️
It's like Michael Scott meets backpacking. I was waiting for Dwight to jump out!
I don't know about you, but I trust anything prison Mike has to say implicitly, guy knows what's up.

Mike Nettles Prisoner Burrittos? I like it!

I like the cream chicken ramen with a foil pack of chicken for a complete meal. The oriental with tuna is pretty good.
Thank you. Nitty gritty. Love it. Thats how me and my kids hike it and like it man.
Nicely done. Never thought of the Mac & Cheese with Bacon even though I have it at home.
Coconut milk powder, stock cube, curry powder. Mix with vegetables and or meat options of choice. Boiled water.

You don't wanna be eating pork when Jesus soon returns... read Isaiah 66
Good food for on the trail.

I like the bacon mac n cheese idea, that sounds like it would hit the spot.
I like these 3 meals for my quick lunch breaks on the trail. It looks like your doing good picking up subscribers lately! 👍
Doesn’t the boiling water cook the plastic? I wanna try but I’m afraid I’ll melt it lol
Christy Sanchez won’t melt but but I bet the chemicals aren’t good the bags aren’t bpa free
you're awesome dude. let's go camping if your ever in west Michigan
Great Tips. I'm not a Roman fan but Ill be throwing some bacon bits in the mix.
This is an amazing video bro! Great edit, and great suggestions! Love your intro too. Haha.
Ps. Combine meals one and two for the notorious Ramen Bomb!
Keep Moving Forward!
Backcountry Forward I don’t think I’d like the texture of noodles and mashed potatoes. 😬
Love your style brother awsome
A thumbs up just for the intro! Trees!
Um isnt that not advised to pour boiling water into a plastic bag? Cuz you might be eating some plastic?
Um, if you are eating backpacking food, a little plastic from a bag made to take boiling water is the least of your worries.
@@donkemp8151 Plastic bags are not made to take boiling water. What makes you think they are?
Intro: 👍 + subbed 😁✌️

Guilty. Minnesota lifer.
@@MidwestBackpacker cool.

You can't take frozen food and let it thaw during the hike. You can't let any food thaw at room temperature or you risk food poisoning.

Break up the Ramen noodles? Blasphemy! ;)
Randall Miller LOL. My pot is too small. 😂
They cook faster with tiny little bit less water as well ;)
Hehe nice video
combine 1 & 3 and divide it into two meals and you're finally on to something
Loved the intro hilarious lol!!$
Great video Jeremy
Thanks for watching Ray!
That was a funny intro.
In America we don't measure with the metric system
I can not find ANY good recipes for Florida hikers. There are countless cold weather food recipes but none for hot weather hikers.
Throw the ramon noodle flavor bag away.
LoL!!! "So are ya broke"? Well, as a matter of fact!!!😁
Ramen in the cup because it is easier to drink the broth too (mmm, my favorite part).
Do you mean to eat out of the pot or to pack the ramen that comes in a bowl? The bowl packaged ramen doesn't seem very pack friendly.
Midwest Backpacker I mean to eat from the titanium cup I cook in. The styrofoam cup would be horrible to pack.
I would never ever cook a meal inside a zip lock bag! Plastic nastiness!
Did you really make a video on how to make mac & cheese, ramen, and instant mashed potatoes 🙄
1. are you broke?
A. Yes
2. Or are you just cheap?
A. Yes
3. Are you new to camping?
A. No
4. Are you lazy?
A. Yes
5. Or are you just stupid?
A. HeY yOu GuYs!! 😅
Not much point putting ramen in a freezer bag since your cooking it in pot anyway.
I agree. I recently converted to actually making it in the pan. Putting it in small bag does allow you to break the brick and it packs down a little better.
A regular Ziploc sandwich bag would work if you are cooking in the pot
Cheaper and lighter, less to pack out
No tacos!!??
Too expensive and difficult to make this list for cheap and lazy. :-) But ooooh, those tacos are so good. :-)
This intro hurts my head man
