    Mlk, Eggs, Cheese, Ice Iream, Meat, and Vegetables Without Refrigeration.

    Yep, believe it or not there is a demand for fake bacon. TVP beef, chicken, and ham too. Something about being vegetarian I think. Another concern even bigger than cholesterol is Gluten. Gluten free is neccessary to some and I,m happy to say they can now travel, and camp with confidence and...

    Mlk, Eggs, Cheese, Ice Iream, Meat, and Vegetables Without Refrigeration.

    Here is what I did yesterday, I figured out what I'm calling " reconsti-fusion". Chicken re constituted with chicken broth and some juice from the pickle jar. Chicken salad sandwich beginnings. I was at a friends in South, Texas so we had boiled eggs and mayo but the chicken was a three week...

    Need good coffee for percolator

    We too like the Costco deal. Costa Rican is dark and earthy. I grind it for the home french press. Coarse. I find when I am percolating coffee on the camp stove i do not keep track of time when the per starts because I'm doing other things and I like it strong anyway. Good news is the coarse...

    Lithium 1000w generator

    Solar generator field test thread. If you have a gripe contact Humless. They created the verbiage and you can take it up with them. Anyone who thinks they are buying a self perpetuating battery that never dies is probably not on this forum of educated consumers like yourself. If I had a typo ...

    Lithium 1000w generator

    Generation I have a Honda generator. When I plugged in the drill the drill did nothing. I asked the guy at the dealer why this was and he told me to add gasoline, turn the generator on and then the generator would produce electricity. So I asked why couldn't I just our gasoline on my drill...

    Lithium 1000w generator

    I have one on the way to test for the three week run which includes Expo 12. I will ask of it all it can give and report back on this thread. I hope it works as Humless claims. If it does, the $1,650 is a deal.

    Lithium 1000w generator

    Yeti vs Sentinal I did learn today that while the Sentinal Lithium generator has less amp hr capacity, it fully charges by 100 w solar panel in three hrs. 2.5 hrs on a wall plug or from isolated alternator connection to the rig. I'm do not a use a heavy load but do have c-pap, fridge and a fan...

    Mlk, Eggs, Cheese, Ice Iream, Meat, and Vegetables Without Refrigeration.

    After a simple cold air blast and deep freeze that shut down the local grocers here in D/FW, Texas, my preparedness awareness was heightened to level of 'make sure this does not happen again'. I did the research and bought food storage that would also rotate as our primary food supply. The...

    No refrigeration needed

    Milk, butter, cheese, eggs, ice cream, vegetables and meat with no refrigeration. Water is weight and spoils food. Who wants to carry that around? We use our freeze dried food storage and take the can or package in a dry box. 25 yr shelf life sealed, one year open if the moisture is kept out...

    An alternative to expensive Mountain House foods for camping

    No preservatives please. We switched to Thrive. Not only is it great home food storage, we take it with us. I use the seal a meal to package our own recipes of portioned food that requires very little prep. Mostly boiling water pot or skillet. Either way it is a one burner deal to make great...

    Rattlesnake?

    SNAKE MEDICINE Rattlesnake like Gar are bony but if fried like explained in this thread but at a lower heat for a longer time, about 25 minutes, most of the ribs soften and you only notice the vertebrae. Similar to Salmon. Cooked on the open fire, the meat is worth picking off. Bite it like a...

    What did you do to your Expo Jeep today?

    I'm going to re mount and modify tent/rack relationship to be lower and more tucked in. I moved this RTT back and forth to test wind deflection and found the biggest drag is created when i leave a gap between the front deflector and leading edge of the RTT. Once I closed that gap the soft top...
