I’ll take that. Thank you

I told my brother about him and referred to him as the Steve Wallis of homemade MREs.

[@moronbrothersmoto3718]

[@justinswift6835]

In for the charcuterie MRE!

[@dadbudgetadventures]

Already putting ideas together thanks to this audience.

[@ege713]

Probably the cheese crisps, there are sausage slices, a variety of cured jerky could work plus dried fruits and nuts. Will be a cool one.

[@Gumby1978]

First congratulations on your 15,000! Second, it was good to meet Mrs. DBA. Have her back on the channel for another adventure.

[@dadbudgetadventures]

Thank you. I will definitely be doing that.

[@DelleMemphis]

I would love to come back!!!

[@user-lq7pg5xb9p]

MRE charcuterie sounds awesome...you should include D'elle in that one too.

[@dadbudgetadventures]

Oh, she will be there for sure

[@DelleMemphis]

I will definitely be in a charcuterie board episode…or he is fired!!!

[@NewHampshireJack]

A pleasure to meet you, Mrs DBA. Romantic MRE for two is a total success. Some happy memories from the past came flooding back into my mind. When the wild grape leaves were at their peak, residents of our small New England town might catch a glimpse of two old geezers snipping the leaves along the roadsides. My Greek neighbor had a secret. After stuffing the leaves with his lamb & rice mix, the leaves were simmered to perfection in his homemade chicken stock. Nothing went to waste in his families restaurant and homemade chicken stock was the rule! Thank you for the video, and some great new ideas.

[@dadbudgetadventures]

What an amazing story. Thanks for sharing that!

[@DelleMemphis]

Awww nice to met you too!!!

[@RealMash]

Never forget how lucky you are..never is a bad thing to be reminded. She puts up with your antics...and brings her own.

[@dadbudgetadventures]

That’s what makes it work

[@DelleMemphis]

She brings lots of antics!😅

[@SethCohn23]

Mrs DBA is fun, looking forward to more couple videos

[@dadbudgetadventures]

She’s a hoot for sure. We will be seeing her again.

[@craigslaughter6891]

Easy to see why you are always smiling, she is a keeper. Yes, to the charcuterie mre, even if just to watch more of your two's on-screen magic.

[@dadbudgetadventures]

She’s pretty awesome. Thanks for that.

[@dianebondhus9355]

Congratulations on 15,000! 🎉 It was so nice to meet Mrs. DBA 🥰 For the board; dried sausage links or jerky, crackers, long lasting cheese sticks, various dried fruits, mixed nuts or trail mix, and chocolate (always chocolate 😂). Oh, and wine for Mrs. DBA. 😁

[@dadbudgetadventures]

Great suggestions. Thanks!

[@dorindamiddleton5418]

I think a charcuterie board would be a great idea! I love the idea of a hikeable backpacking board. It would be so much fun.

[@dadbudgetadventures]

Gonna make it happen

[@BDrisco1982]

Fried cheese chips. Different crackers. Freeze dried cheese. Several meat spreads. It's 100% possible.

[@fishhead1227]

I love this! So proud of you. Definitely one of the most relevant content channels out there. Happy to see Mrs. Dad Budget Adventures! Hope to see more of you two

[@dadbudgetadventures]

Thank you, bud. Much appreciated.

[@MR2Davjohn]

Congratulations on 15K. Welcome D'Elle. You've single handedly increased the channel value by at least 3!

[@dadbudgetadventures]

Yeah she did

[@iscreamqueens]

You cant have her she’s ours!

[@madtownangler]

My dad had two bee hives when I was growing up so we rarely bought any sugar except for making cookies Now he does maple syrup because they live in the woods near a river. Somebody bought the land with all the trees and chopped them all down but the other neighbor that hunts my parents land is letting them use their maple trees which is nice because there is an old snowmobile trail down to the river my dad got permission to make a path to their path. Its nice because the guy has grandkids that want to learn how to make syrup.

[@dadbudgetadventures]

I would absolutely love to have some land with maple trees. I would be all about learning how to do that. Thanks for sharing that!

[@kevyNova123]

Congrats on the 15k, off to 100k next. Wonderful video with the Missus, you two have great chemistry. Would like to see her in more videos.

[@dadbudgetadventures]

Love the double MRE, it shows that you can have splurges even in an emergency. Thank you for sharing your wife with us.

[@dadbudgetadventures]

Absolutely. There should be at least one special occasion meal set aside.

[@jrhalabamacustoms5673]

Fantastic channel content, and now to meet the Mrs, ya'll are a hoot! Hopefully we get to see more of both of you together in the future.

[@jesseduncan9612]

Wow! Box wine and canned stuffed grape leafs. Who even knew this was possible. Really enjoyed watching you and your wife show case this romantic MRE for two. Carry on and keep 'em coming.

[@dadbudgetadventures]

Thank you so much!

[@miked14]

Congrats on the milestone. Great way to celebrate.

[@dadbudgetadventures]

Thank you!

[@onlyinparadise4613]

Hickory smoked cheddar cheese, pepper jack cheese, processed sausage, beef jerky, cornichons, crackers or croutons, Dijon mustard, raisins, dried apricots, fig jam, chocolate, etc. Most of this can come from World Market and Trader Joe’s. Love the wifey 😘

[@dadbudgetadventures]

Great ideas!

[@waynenunn5290]

She's adorable nice to met her.

[@dadbudgetadventures]

Thank you!

[@iscreamqueens]

Awww thank you

[@larrysmith9726]

I've seen several of your videos, then happened on this one (I may have been subscriber 15,001!) with D'elle. She is quite charming, possesses a beautiful smile, exhibits a pleasant fun attitude, can sing, and as commented below, "puts up with your antics." Blessings to both of you during travels and never-ending quest to find new and improved homemade MREs. Thanks to your videos, I'm now aware of and capable of locating various items to put together an MRE. Items for example available at most larger supermarkets with the following to choose from: dry foods (dried blueberries, cherries, dates, etc.), packaged goods (flavored or plain rice or couscous, rice and beans and the like), canned or packaged meats (foil sealed flavored tuna, etc.), Copes dry corn (just add water, or the canned variety), puddings, applesauce, and various types of energy or similar snack bars (chocolate, peanut butter, fruit, Kelloggs's Nutri Grain, and Nature Valley granola bars, to name a few). A previously unknown store, but one that has some interesting foods, is Ocean State Job Lot (opened less than a year ago near my home). They have garden and home items, and foods such as Indian cuisine, in addition to other foods (sort of like an Aldi's store).

[@dadbudgetadventures]

Thank you! Always love hearing that people are taking something away from this.

[@marceld6061]

I just jumped over to D'elle's channel. She's easy on the eyes *and* the ears! Oh, and this MRE looked good too. Haven't seen wine in those little boxes before. Will have to try one if I find it.

[@dadbudgetadventures]

I’m glad you find her entertaining. She will appreciate that.

[@DelleMemphis]

Thank you!!!

[@dadbudgetadventures]

Thanks for watching!

[@slade7499]

Congrats on 15k! Thanks D'elle for guest starring. I'm definitely interested in the snack board MRE.

[@dadbudgetadventures]

Thank you. I think that’s gonna happen very soon.

[@12345gerrard]

Aww she's cool 😎

[@dadbudgetadventures]

She really is

[@12345gerrard]

@dadbudgetadventures you're lucky you really are as there are people out there who want someone who believes in them and too love but the shame thing is they may never meet that person. So definitely be greatful for her my friend her love for you is worth more than gold

[@slytherinprincess5682]

My partner and I celebrate our anniversary every year with charcuterie so I would LOVE to see that as an MRE

[@dadbudgetadventures]

That is awesome. I think we are going to make it happen.

[@bonjovi2757]

She's a keeper.

[@dadbudgetadventures]

Absolutely. Gotta have zombie bait around.

We enjoyed your wife’s appetite, she made this video most enjoyable !! 😄

[@dadbudgetadventures]

Thanks! I’ll let her know!

Congrats, Dad! D'elle is a sweetheart!

[@dadbudgetadventures]

Thank you. She’s the best.

[@frankhinkle5772]

That was fun, and we got to see more products tested. Yes, I think a MRE charcuterie board would be interesting, and we might find one or two things that work very well.

[@dadbudgetadventures]

Thanks! That’s going to be such a fun project.

[@JimSmith-yd3ud]

Loved meeting the wife, hope to see more shows with the two of you. May be you could have an MRE competition where you both make one without knowing the others content until you present them on the show. As for the charcuterie board MRE, you should be able to just pick it up and go at anytime and that means the board must be included in the bag. That show should be very enjoyable to see. Had a great time watching, thanks from California ...where we just may really have the need for MRE 'S..LOL

[@dadbudgetadventures]

I was hoping to do a board that would fit or be the container. We will see how it shapes up.

[@YabbaDabbaDoTime]

Congrats on 15k! Because I make most of my own cold weather rations, bulk food stores are the best. Local to me is Bulk Barn. As for the charcuterie board, dried salami, pepperoni, maybe prosciutto and canned pate. Dried fruit and nuts. There are a number of shelf stable cheeses that backpackers take, I get mine on Amazon. They are all hard cheeses so include a vegetable peeler in the kit to shave the cheese.

[@dadbudgetadventures]

Great ideas. Thank you!

[@RkyMtnH1]

WooHoo! Always stronger with our significant other...another great video!

[@dadbudgetadventures]

Absolutely! Thank you

[@Olyphoto7]

Outstanding! I bet there was a tremendous amount of giggling that was edited out. Definitely do a charcuterie MRE - Nuts, dried fruits, dried meats, crackers or thin rice cakes, and (cringe) shelf stable cheese. You can do it! 😊 Congratulations on 15k!

[@dadbudgetadventures]

Thank you so much. There was a lot left on the cutting room floor 😂

[@ernestinecritzer933]

That charcuterie sounds fun! More wine forsure. Jarred olives, hormel peperoni, nut mix wud be good. Really enjoyed meeting your wife❤

[@dadbudgetadventures]

Great suggestions!

[@dougbotimer8005]

My favorite KZbinr, and lovely wife. And great MRE. My wife and I have found similar entrees and sides great to keep in the pantry for a quick, yet satisfying, dinner.

Thank you. She is a really cool chick.

[@deni5820]

Congrats on 15000! I enjoyed meeting the other half and this was a fun video. Yes, please do an MRE charcuterie! Along with the usual nuts and crackers, I would add dried/freeze dried/canned fruit, those packages of sliced pepperoni from Dollar Tree, canned deviled ham, vienna sausages, maybe even canned caviar! As for cheese (and I think this would follow the rules?) I would get some Cougar Gold cheese from Washington State University Creamery. It's canned and it's delicious! I love a charcuterie of any kind, any time of day. We just call it Snacky Snack Dinner. :)

[@dadbudgetadventures]

Such great ideas. Thank you!

[@rockyraab8290]

Wonderful, just wonderful. The food and D'Elle. More of both, please. Charcuterie? Pickles, olives, cheese, summer sausage, crackers, pate, garbanzo beans, and more wine.

[@dadbudgetadventures]

Great suggestions! Thanks!

[@cindyminx2985]

Congrats on 15000, well deserved. Nice to meet your "spooky" wifey! You two are fun together. I've had those strawberries before and will definitely get them again. Please see if you can do a charcuterie board. I'll be interested in finding cheese for it, thats an interesting challenge!

[@dadbudgetadventures]

Thank you. I think this is going to be a fun challenge.

[@gregvanderboom5011]

I didn't think I can even spell charcuterie (thank you spell check) but I'd like to see what you come up with for a MRE charcuterie. Congratulations on 15,000 subscribers and I'm sure you can achieve any goals you put your mind to. Awesome to be introduced to D'elle. Thank you for the video.

[@jameskelly1680]

You two are adorable together. Congratulations, you are a lucky guy to have a spouse who supports your eccentricities (and brings her own). There are some really great ideas in this MRE to get "out of the box". Will have to try some of these. The MRE charcuterie board has some ideas that are ready-made. There are lots of prepackaged summer sausages and cheeses that don't require refrigeration (Hickory Farms comes to mind, but there are probably some better ones out there.) I'm aware of some retort packaged smoked salmon. I've even seen olives and pickles in retort pouches. Add an assortment of nuts and dried fruits and crackers and fancy mustard. This should be an interesting challenge. Looking forward to seeing it. And congratulations on 15K subscribers! Yes, you wouldn't have a channel without the audience, but the audience wouldn't be here if you didn't have great content.

[@dadbudgetadventures]

Thank you! And thanks for the great suggestions.

[@julierader5140]

There kind of is an MRE charcuterie that people buy a lot around Christmas. Those Swiss Colony gift baskets with meats, cheeses, candies, little mustards and jellies. Might not be the best options but a nice potential place to source some items.

That’s a great idea!

Kudos to you for a great videos. Also looking forward to the charcuterie video. It would be great to see her in it.

[@wyrock7846]

For the charcuterie board, there are dehydrated cheeses out there, one called "Moon Cheese" comes to mind, but you can sometimes find other brands with smaller bits meant for salads by the croutons in a grocery store. You could also include individual pickles packed in a plastic pouch and maybe some vienna sausages. Maybe a cut up slim jim or biltong (not sure the shelf life of that).

[@dadbudgetadventures]

Great ideas all!

I was delightfully surprised at your choice in enchanting spouses my good fellow. I was expecting something different, like a woman more into MRE's and prepping sort of thing. Your pairing reminds me of my wife and I. I'm an all black wearing metal head, outdoors and survival enthusiast and she's a loveable dork who reads a lot and listens to Taylor Swift *blegh*, kind of polar opposites but have our own shared crazy thing going that makes us happy. I would love to see a charcuterie (thank you predictive text) board MRE and a return of your delightful wife. You're adorable together and it's nice to see.

[@TheRealAnarchrox]

@@dadbudgetadventures You're most welcome. Tbh I'm surprised as hell that your channel isn't already bigger and more followed than it is, considering the structure, regularity and quality of the videos. I'm gonna level with you, I reckon it was that circus Ringmaster moustachio, it held you back. The beard lends you rugged credibility haha. I reckon the channel growth will be exponential. Your videos on the subject of MRE's (I really need to go back and watch the oldies too) are as good a quality as any others out there with far more subs. I'd almost have advised against having your lovely wife on the channel because people are trolls and dicks so often however her being in the public eye anyway gives you that option in that she'd know what she's in for on KZbin, which is a great thing. Cheers and keep doing what you do.

[@alanbierhoff6831]

[@dadbudgetadventures]

I get out to NC camping every once in a while. I will watch for it!

[@CMarie404]

cute that you found chocolate covered strawberries for your romantic picnic. I think it would be fun to put together a CRE- charcutier- ready to eat. 😁 It's not all that out there!! Endless possibilities. Good ole cheese and crackers is my go-to "meal" under a variety of circumstances. I work a physical labor job so breaks arent a thing. I usually take bites as I need them, and most often on my drive. So I almost always have a zip lock bag with crackers, cheese, sausage stick, peanut butter, nuts. Stufd that is easy to eat yet gives me some options, flavors and mouth feel. Sometimes a little potted meat of some sort, or other spread. Then usually add to it by having some sliced fruit. I can pick at it all day or just curl up somewhere chow down. Also my go to when I dont feel like cooking. I go feral when my husband goes out of town, so stuff like this is my usual fodder. Super wide variety of options that would just work so well. Kinda think it would be perfect for camping, hiking, emergency, road trips, random picnic, work day food, or lazy night meal. Then it would be just cute to have it bagged up ready to go. Love Dolmades. I like to lightly warm them to emulsify the oil. But cold from can is good too. That was fun. Congrats on 15K. Onward and upward!

[@dadbudgetadventures]

Thank you so much. I think we will be bringing the CRE very soon. It seems to be in high demand 😂

So did you lose that wine out your nose after clunking the wine glasses? Too Funny! D'Elle is a hoot! Charcuterie MRE? Absolutely! As long as D'Elle is a part of it! You two make a great couple!

Rather new to this channel, but I love it. Your wife is lovely and I would love a charcuterie board. Grapes wouldn't work, but: raisens?? Of course, olives and cheese. Canned albacore tuna??

[@dadbudgetadventures]

Great ideas. I’m glad you found the channel!

Shoprite supermarket here in NJ, carries the Nate's honey in a squeeze bottle. I haven't seen the individual pack's. 🐝🍯

Check Walmart, specifically the WM Neighborhood Market if you have them in your area.

Always enjoy the videos. Y’all are so cute. I would love to see you do more of these videos. As to Charcuterie, the hardest thing would be fresh fruits and cheese. You had a couple items in the WF meal. The Domas would be a good addition. Also the chocolate strawberries. Laughing cow has shelf stable cheese like substance. Pepperoni, salami, I have been taking for a pre dinner camp snack black and green olives that come in single serve cups. As an aside, I would also suggest instead of one beverage, a hot and a cold beverage. Thank you for the entertaining and insightful videos you do.

🎉CONGRATS!!!🎉🎉 on 15,000!! Sooo very nice to meet Mrs. DBA 😊 I say YES to the charcuterie board. I'm sure you'll blow our minds with it since you have a knack for thinking outside the box! CONGRATS again!!

[@dadbudgetadventures]

Thank you so much. I truly appreciate all the support!

@@dadbudgetadventures it's kinda crazy, your channel popped up in my feed and I've been binge watching ever since 😂😂

[@Saltpork305]

This was great. If you do an MRE charcuterie board, see about including some Cougar Gold. It's canned cheese the Navy has used since WW2.

[@dadbudgetadventures]

That’s a great idea

[@miscelany2]

MRE charcuterie: summer sausage, canned cheese, higher end canned ham, tin of butter cookies, chocolate, stuffed olives, melba toast, pepperoni, dry fruit, jar of almonds, stuffed grape leaves... that's off the top of my head. You can do it.

[@dadbudgetadventures]

Great suggestions. Thank you!

[@Tamara_D]

I'd add fire roasted tomatoes, pesto, laughing cow cheese (spreadable), parmesan cheese, bacon, and some olive oil packets to the ingredients 👆
