2020 Thanksgiving MRE by Steve1989 Review Homemade Freeze Dried Ration Tasting Test Feast

A unique freeze dried Thanksgiving feast and one to remember! The first homemade ration from my freeze dryer, this massive Thanksgiving MRE was a 90% success in terms of preparation/packaging. An introduction into something new and great with making rations - and next time it will also include some cooking scenes for even further dimension. So stay tuned for that. Until then, I'm compiling a recipe list for these home made components and will post them on this video description very shortly. Some company really needs to cash in on this idea - imagine some sortof bucket that feeds 6 for Thanksgiving. Could make for a nice & easy ready to cook Thanksgiving dinner for convenience, camping, or survival.

The absolute madman. Most people complain about how long they slave over the oven to make Thanksgiving dinner. Steve cooked the food, dehydrated it, packaged it, opened it, then rehydrated it.

[@jessesloan864]

AND reheated the leftovers...

[@DepressivesBrot]

But if you got these to be properly shelf stable, you'd only need to make a batch every 5 years or so. Imagine the time saved!

[@akfred]

I think he said it took 4 days to make the thanksgiving MRE. Thats dedication!

[@7saany]

Imagine how happy soldiers would be if they actually received something like this for thanksgiving.

[@bastardhyena7882]

It'd be very welcoming to be able to enjoy a filling Thanksgiving Dinner far away from home during service. Sure, it doesn't look like it would fit in a soldiers bag but it wouldn't matter, their morale would bolster through the roof. Maybe diffrent box for easier transport and boom, Thanksgiving in a box for the troops!

[@dallasmay4031]

there was enough food in there to last a man all day in a cold weather climate i say that's better than a standard cold weather climate MRE

[@Hexarth]

it should be well within the military budget to spend a few million and get every deployed soldier a seasonal MRE with turkey and gravy, stuffing, cranberry sauce, mashed potato, etc. if not, i bet a fundraiser could be very successful

[@buckstarchaser2376]

I would still bitch about the cornbread stuffing. The Army always serves the southern version of everything. I never give up an opportunity bitch about that. Damn cornbread stuffing. * bitching with mouth full * It's a travesty. * gulp *

This vid really is just 45 minutes of wholesome cuteness and goodness. It’s like he wrapped and opened his own Christmas presents early

2021 ARMY recruiters using "and we have Steve1989MRE's for every meal" to seal the deal with new recruits.

[@xXCigarXx]

Man I dont know how I missed this one,this is probably one of the coolest videos you have made Steve.

[@GlitteryPegasus]

It's the day before Thanksgiving, 2022. I can't wait for the day when Steve puts his Thanksgiving MRE into production for the troops.

[@drum4life22630]

“Who made the turkey this year?” “Uh, I think Uncle Steve.” “Aww ma-“ “Alright Kids, get out your trays.”

[@arc269]

Let us give thanks for rehydration, vintage trays, sturdy sporks and nice hisses.

[@kellypaskett6391]

Nice

[@lunaticwolf]

Anyone else laugh super hard when he said "lets get this out on to a tray" then it goes to a shot with the tray totally covered including the mess kit?

[@TheDalisama]

And the follow up when he put the plate on the tray.

[@Drivingthruthebay]

Lol me!!!! I laughed so loud at that part ! I love Steve !

[@79Tomasso]

The best

[@SeaShellsSeaShells89]

Nice! Watching your content after like two years. Can’t believe I stopped watching. It feels so nice to be back. Life was stressful. Happy to watch content that makes me feel normal again.

[@AndrewPonti]

Steve taking all his knowledge and experience with so many rations and MAKING his own - I hope that he makes these a realization with a company! We'd ALL buy them and just enjoy them like he does!

2015 Steve eats MRE. 2020 Steve makes MRE. 2025 Steve becomes MRE.

What if Steve puts himself on the tray

[@Kgfao]

The thought of Steve freeze-drying his food just to rehydrate it again is so wholesome

[@valeriennic0le_101]

All of your videos make me smile. You get so stoked and I love it!! ☺️💕

[@jonathanlopez3663]

This is so awesome! I've been watching your videos for years you're one of my favorite youtubers. Never disappoint. Keep being great!. MRE looks like it turned out good.

"Why hasn't any company produced freeze-dried stuffing?" Steve, you got yourself a nice little business idea there! I'd definitely try your MRE. I've been binge-watching your videos for the last weeks now, and damn, I hope there will be many more in the future. From the comments I see that your attitude, personality, and your dedication cheer up so many people all around the globe. Thanks, dude! I hope you're well and in good health. Greetings from over the pond.

One of your best videos. Would love to see a part 2

All the store bought food Steve made this out of has enough in them lol

[@Nick-xf5uz]

He’s used too it.

[@DragonLearner]

Ya boi just randomly starts making his own MRE ration with no explanation. This is why we love Steve.

[@Jahloveipraise]

This is so dope. Love the passion and fun you put into this. Hope it was the best thanksgiving ever 👊🏾

[@fluggaenkoecchicebolsen]

I love how excited he gets when it works. Awesome guy

[@windriver2363]

Did I just spend 45 minutes watching someone dehydrate food, put the food in bags, and then immediately remove the food from the bags and rehydrate the food?

[@seanjahns3238]

Yes you did

[@goawaytubetwat3179]

Yup, you probably did. I was talking about Steve's channel with a group of friends the other day and one of them laughed for ages because he thought I was making a joke. No, people really do watch people eating and making rations.

[@moonbeamstry5321]

I did and loved every second of it

[@jack66648]

And it was awesome

[@kristingallo2158]

Yes and you loved it

[@simonescelsa]

This guy could bring a line of MREs on the market and make millions.

[@GlorianaLovejoy]

I think everyone in the comments section is like "Shut up and take my money" at the idea of Steve1989 Brand MREs, hehe

[@majcorbin]

am a retired Army (cold war) Vet , I have no hesitation to ask my kids to send me these MRE's to their live alone ,orphaned, divorced, DAD

[@Farmynator]

@@GlorianaLovejoy Only if the MRE contains a three pack of cigarettes and the description reads "guaranteed hiss".

[@ml.2770]

I suspect he will.

[@williampoole1742]

I'm thinking that's the reason why he's been gone for a couple months, we might get the announcement pretty soon

[@tm502010]

I was a fan of your channel before - but this is SO DELIGHTFULLY NUTTY! ❤️ Making your own MREs - followed up by, “Let’s get this all out on a tray” - with the trays overflowing! Well done, sir!

[@theevilascotcompany9255]

Steve making his own MREs is like watching that new Captain America forge his own shield.

[@stompchunkman4248]

Years in the future: Steve2099MRE tries his ancestor's MREs.
