[@NeilBates-k3t]

Blackie you are the real deal prussic, soft shackles, ridge lines, toggles, camp cooking I really value your advice

[@WayPointSurvival]

That's really excellent! Thanks so much for the tutorial and continued prayers.

[@jakeoutdoors9600]

This is very clever. A nice hot several part meal without the cost of an MRE. And a bonus, all the trash would fit in one of the zipper bags for easy pack out.

[@BLACKIETHOMAS]

yep quick and easy that the way i roll

[@independentthinker8930]

I like those mess kits, got 3! With it being cool today I did Dutch oven cooking. I made railroad pie, like a slightly thicker beef stew with a nice cornbread crust on top! So good on cool/ cold days!! Kent Rollins would be proud!🤣🤣🤣

[@BLACKIETHOMAS]

sounds good

[@samuelcorbin3694]

Thanks Blackie. This is another great example of what we can do instead of just Ramon noodles.

[@DanielBelliveau-y5x]

Best part of this is your use of potato chips. I didn’t know they’d do that when boiled.

Blackie, glad you are doing better. Question, do you like the woodland field jacket better than the OD jacket?

[@BLACKIETHOMAS]

its a toss up but the woodland is a bit larger than my old od one and i have become a little too awesome for it lol

[@toneyjohnson8910]

So glad to see you out and about.

make a coozee out of Reflectix or similar material big enough to hold the freezer bags squeezed flat will not take up too much space

[@BLACKIETHOMAS]

correct

[@davidleasure9138]

Good video Blackie. Take care brother

[@misolgit69]

in general Pringles contain wheat, corn, and rice flour in addition to dehydrated potatoes

[@BLACKIETHOMAS]

yep they just come apart if you try to boil them

[@BLACKIETHOMAS]

you should

[@buckshot4428]

I tried making some scrambled eggs in plastic baggies and when I tasted it, it really had an off flavor much like plastic. Maybe freezer bags are better, but I'm going to err on the side of caution. Glad you are doing well.

[@bayouflats5054]

[@BLACKIETHOMAS]

yea often the cheap bags will have a odor

Great instruction! Stay well and happy.

[@BLACKIETHOMAS]

Appreciate that!

[@ldsphotodude49]

Blackie I thought I'd suggest a method I discovered for keeping fresh meat fresh. I used to take frozen steakums on backpacking trips with my Boy Scouts. You know those padded envelopes you get from Amazon or FedEx kinda bubble wrap envelopes. I take those, they're really light. I slide a little frozen BlueIce packet in with whatever meat I want to keep fresh. I've actually gotten two days out of that by putting the whole thing in an insulated lunch bags then I buried it in my pack.

[@johnbensonism]

Genius!!!

[@protectpersevere2030]

Good to see you man

[@BLACKIETHOMAS]

thanks

[@smd482000]

That was easy enough

[@michaelbrunner6654]

Thats a great meal. I gotta try patotoe chips like that

[@BLACKIETHOMAS]

you should

[@peterslabinger6221]

Hi Blackie, I was wondering if you could use a potato chip bag to keep your food warm. The inside of the bag has reflective material like mylar. Just interested if anyone has ever tried it and had success. Thanks for your video and hope your are doing well.

[@bayouflats5054]

@@peterslabinger6221 thanks for the share. I’ll test that out at home, do not want to be disappointed or something goes wrong when I’m in the wood and hungry. I’d probably cry!!

Thanks for video Blackie. Gonna try this next time I'm out. Glad to see you are doing good. Question, what fuel do you use in the Trangia? Thanks.

[@bretjohnson6188]

Denatured alcohol, usually found in the paint section of the hardware department.

[@patriotpreacher43]

@@bretjohnson6188 you can even get that in a 5 gallon barrel. Hey in the yellow bottle is good and about the right size. HEET not hey!😂

[@bretjohnson6188]

@patriotpreacher43 Yes, the Yellow Heet is primarily denatured alcohol. The Red Heet is primarily Isopropyl Alcohol which leaves tons of soot and does not seem to burn as hot.

[@patriotpreacher43]

@ yes, definitely do not use the red.

[@BLACKIETHOMAS]

correct harward near the paint section use denatured often it will be labeled as fuel

[@tjfm59]

what comes to mind for the type of beef your talking is the braizilian hereford roast beef or the hormel micorwaveable beef /pork with gravy line up. yes freeze the hormel products. the hereford is room temp stable. got the same match case, have had mine since 1978. was watching another youtuber. on keeping food warm, they made a tea coziy out of reflectics & duct tape. now that i see how much meat you have for dinner... here's a suggestion, go raid arby's when they have there roast beef on sale at 4 for ten$ now a days. have 1 or 2 for lunch. save & freeze the meat from the other 2. recently found up my way, lyolld's bbq ribs in a 1 lb package. about half a slab. probably need the 1qt bush pot for them. as they are a heat & eat item. try heating your plat first for 10 to 15 seconds. should keep your food warmer for a longer time than your food heating the plate an going cold real fast. you need a french roll for dunking in the au jus. that is yummmy. 1st gen mre bread can be turned into a excellent dish this way. did it a few times a mid-rat snack when i had the watch.

[@BLACKIETHOMAS]

yes they will do well

[@mikepoindexter3472]

I'm a old cowboy action shooter, have question on percussion revolver. I shoot 44cal 1858 Remington pieta replica, round ball . 451 home cast pure lead, 22-23 gr 3f swiss, # 10 caps. so I make my own wads from 100% cotton layered to get thickness comparable to Dixie wads lubed with homemade BP lube. so on a 95° hot day my powder was getting damp from lube melting . so I started putting my wad on top of round ball in cly. im thinking that would lube barrel every shot in front of boolit, also not had a chain fire doing it this way. so what do think about wad in front of boolit? good or bad I welcome your thoughts on this. Mike

[@BLACKIETHOMAS]

the wad in front will still do its job of wiping out fouling and adding lube

[@chuckhussey9761]

This is awesome. I'm thinking you could use the boxed taters au gratin with bacon as well. I like the chip idea tho. Cajun turkey, roast beef like u said and that's a meal. Wonderful 👍. Prayed for you brother. Take care. Will u be doing any cooking in the p40?

[@BLACKIETHOMAS]

The P40 is coming up soon, you’ll have to wait and see!

Hey blackie hope your feeling better and I just wanted to ask how to iron a M 65 Field jacket, mine is old from 1969 with the metal zipper same as your main. Just wondering how to straighten the collar and the pockets, The collar forms a bit of a roll And lifts up from shoulder just wondering what you would do thanks support from Canada.

[@BLACKIETHOMAS]

It's been a while since I've ironed a field jacket but try to flatten it on a firm surface and use a cloth to avoid damage

[@georgepayne8019]

Blackie, what part of Alabama are you in?

[@wiredwrong]

With your current health issue i would strongly suggest you dive into the carnivore diet. It is healing me!

[@wildfire365]

Anytime you put something hot in plastic you get micro plastics in your system and causes all kinds of health issues. Same with anything in a plastic bottles it is filled with micro plastics.
