Solo Wild Hammock Camp With Smoked BBQ Ribs

[@cherylbell1489]

ANDY, YOU ARE A CHAMPION WITH THOSE RIBS! AND I GOT THE EXPERIENCE OF A FEW HUNDRED SLABS TO KNOW!

[@michaellyddon323]

Your videos send me to sleep. By which I mean, they are so peaceful and relaxing to watch. I watch them when I go to bed after a long stressful day, and they never fail to unwind me. Great videos Andy, keep up the good work.

[@KentSurvival]

haha, thanks Michael, Im very happy to hear that :) I tend to put people to sleep in person too lol

[@marcusRusson]

Yeah I do the same!! Takes your mind off all the crap in the world

[@diannemartino3464]

I love how soothing they are! Never made bannock before, this IS an oldie!

[@MegaSusanc]

Loving your channel, Andy. 6 years ago, the only thing different from you is your hair and beard. lol, but the videos are awesome as always. You are truly spectacular. Keep up the awesome work. This channel is top-notch. I'm on another binge-watch of your videos. KEEP ADVENTURING GOD BLESS YOU.

[@janicehutchins3776]

Absolutely perfect. Love all the nature sights and sounds. We dont have that in my city in the States.

[@AlexNijv]

You've got the only survival channel that always makes me hungry 😉😋

[@KentSurvival]

haha, glad you enjoy sir :) Thanks for watching

[@nairnmonster]

I've watched each and every video of yours but still enjoy when KZbin recommends me some of your older stuff to watch again. That hair and beard were stuff of legends!

[@tonytwotimes4798]

That pancake flip was👌🏽... simply solid!🥞✊🏽

[@tonybanjo]

I've watched several of your videos and subscribed, really enjoyable and inspiring me to go wild camping. No bushcraft skills but back in the day I'd hitch hike with the basics in a rucksack including an old army sleeping bag, camp was the sleeping back in a field, roadside or if raining any shelter I could find (school sheds etc).

[@KentSurvival]

Hi Tony, Thanks very much.. and welcome to the channel.. Its good to get out.. im far from an expert myself but its all about enjoying yourself :)

[@martinmckerral2770]

Hi this is Martin from Grimsby. I love the cooking in your video's its better than what I do in my own home. Thanks for sharing them with us.

[@davidleasure9138]

Two more great meals. Think I have gained weight watching. What a beautiful spot to camp. Great bird songs too. You are a skillful guy in the outdoors.

[@billyaitken1713]

Beech wood is simply fantastic for smoking/cooking pork/chicken/fish/ bacon in a campfire scenario. Shame we moved to Australia, no beech trees in this part of the world. Never mind, all you Aussies- get some green Banksia leaves on the fire if you want to smoke stuff. Another great vid!

[@pauledwards1374]

Ribs and pancakes Andy I need this in my life

[@KentSurvival]

Its a great combo :p Thanks for watching buddy

[@roykemp4941]

Great thanks,I could watch these all day.

[@KentSurvival]

Hi, thanks :) Glad you enjoyed the vid

[@MakeItTSz]

I love your bloody forest cooking. You should start some forest dining/ bub thing 😆 I am glad you never forget to take some beer with you 🍻

[@MakeItTSz]

P.s. I have tried PISTONHEAD 👍🏻

[@wildernesspilgrim]

Glad to see that you enjoyed camping in that spot it is a nice area to chill out! Good spot for buzzards and kestrels too.Enjoying your other vids too!

[@KentSurvival]

Thanks :)

[@shanemarlow384]

Your shows are excellent good job mate hope to see more videos I learn lots from watching you great teacher of the wilderness

[@KentSurvival]

Thank you very much :) Glad you're enjoying the vids and finding them helpful.. lots more to come :)

[@rizalinamaiorana1113]

First time as subscriber, noticed how windy it was. Watching this video, I think was a hard life. Some people love the wilderness, others don't. But I love to watch the resourcefulness of these people! They seemed to know what to do! Kudos to them! From Memphis, Tennessee USA!

[@robbijohnson6983]

Lovely camping the beautiful green tree's the gentle hurricane force breezes 😂

[@rastusuk]

I found this video both relaxing and strangely hypnotic. Very good.

[@wildernessnomad3785]

good video mate nice to see more people locally getting out and enjoying the woods look forward to seeing the next vid

[@KentSurvival]

Thank you for watching and commenting, Im glad you enjoyed. Lots more planned :) ATB

[@terry.akascrappydappy9476]

Your a soldier aren’t you? You were or grew up with them. Lovely video and you are knowledgeable obviously of the outdoors and survival. If you trained yourself than damn. Your a natural. One rule we always had weather in Jungle or Desert. Sleep with the boots hanging, socks drying, powder the feet. But keep them closer than your heart. Couldn’t do it every day but when possible

[@KentSurvival]

Thanks for the compliment, I never served though and do not come from a military family, (closest was a Cub Scout I guess haha) I just love being outside and simplifying life, I'd love to be more of a homesteader but its very difficult in this country with land etc.

[@RudiRulozz]

Inspirasi

[@CherieBlairWitch]

Very nice video.😊 The pancake looked awesome!🌲😊🌳

[@KentSurvival]

Thank you very much Cherie

[@bluetoad2001]

older video, excellent cooking, Bannock makes for the best easiest bread when camping. you had a fine rasher of bacon, didn't know you Brits ate streaky bacon

[@jackduffy1817]

Gormay cooking in the jungle, Looking good Kent. Over.

[@KentSurvival]

Thanks Jack, think I need to do ribs again soon :)

[@BeezusFafoon1971]

Another enjoyable video mate. Those ribs had me salivating!!

[@KentSurvival]

Thanks buddy.. gotta do ribs again at some point :) I really enjoyed this camp.

[@ikeabuchi1]

Absolutely delicious 😋

[@KentSurvival]

[@wubba_chicken]

New subscriber here I’ve watched most of your uploads today. I have to say great videos and thank you for the enjoyment they have given me to watch. I really can’t wait for more thank you

[@KentSurvival]

Hi, thank you for the kind words and for subscribing :) plenty more to come buddy

[@retiredyeti5555]

Greetings from across the pond! The ribs looked great, making some this weekend on the grill, about the same amount as you made. Dry rub, indirect heat, then BBQ sauce the last 15 minutes or so = heaven in your mouth! Like you, I can't get comfy in a hammock - give me a folding cot and I'm out like a log. Like your style, enjoying the vlogs. Stay safe.

[@robbijohnson6983]

That's a beast of a fero rod awesome.

[@50topdog]

Only just fell on your videos yesterday and have watched about half a dozen since. Really enjoy the stuff you do, keep it up mate

[@KentSurvival]

[@GrumpyGrunt]

Your evening bannock was roughly County Kent-shaped. Bravo! (just ribbing you, pun intended) 😂 You NAILED those ribs and that giant cake the next morning looked amazing too, buddy. 👍

[@highwealdwoodsman]

Cracking video there fella, enjoyed it very much! Grub look top drawer!

[@KentSurvival]

[@hutchinsonsadventures4678]

Where would we be without McDonalds Eh..!! 😂 Nice video mate. Ribs looks bloody delicious.

[@KentSurvival]

Thanks :) I have a pretty big bag full of sauces / sugars etc from all the fast food places haha.

[@WorldSurvivalist]

Fantastic camp busy, the ribs looked epic

[@KentSurvival]

Thanks.. ill have to do some ribs again.. its been too long

[@360OutdoorAdventures]

Fantastic video buddy, those ribs looked delicious. Looks like a magnificent location, ive done water drops prior to camping, only to find mice have chewed through the plastic bottles maybe best to store it off the ground. Atb Garry

[@KentSurvival]

Hi, thank you, this spot is actually close to where my camp is, I now just take a 5 litre jug with me, a pain but ensures I can put my fire out properly. Thanks for watching

[@futurechiefthird2583]

Lovely video. I get hungry

[@KentSurvival]

Thank you :)

[@joharmon2148]

Your ribs looked really good. The handle for frying pan was the best

[@PaulOutdoors]

A thoroughly enjoyable watch and listen from start to finish. That is a beautiful location. Your tarp and hammock set up is similar to mine. Dinner looked great. You have a new subscriber. Happy wandering. Paul :)

[@KentSurvival]

Hi Paul, thanks for the kind words and subbing :) ill be hammocking again in the spring, still need to get used to it a bit, ATB - Andy

[@PaulOutdoors]

Kent Survival My pleasure Andy. Once bitten by the hamm9ck bug there is no turning back :)

[@joshuamayberry4301]

Really love your videos.

[@KentSurvival]

Thank you Joshua :)

[@Intotheoutdoors69]

[@thealabamabushcrafter6861]

Really enjoyed your video brother. Very well done and seems so peaceful and serene!! ATB, Keith Alabama Bushcrafters

[@KentSurvival]

Thank you Keith, this one feels so long ago now haha

[@Steeps1969]

Wow, that bacon went from 'A good vet could get it on its feet' to fully crispy in the time it took to cook the pancake's second side.... mmmm, lol, i don't think so. ;-)

[@Larryloafer488]

Always good content.

[@KentSurvival]

Thanks Michael :)

[@sarapulford5957]

Pretty interesting Bannock ? Does that mean not quite cooked because they don't look done but the pancake looks great.

[@wituikbws]

Always a good video if it's a Kent video :D

[@KentSurvival]

Thank you indeed :)

[@FazzaFazza]

Fascinating

[@evanrobertson9174]

Great video

[@Patrick_Arrington]

Very enjoyable.

[@KentSurvival]

thanks for watching

[@davidpage5801]

Great video mate 👍

[@KentSurvival]

Thank you :) feels like a while ago already haha

[@ntlbushcraftengland2925]

Great video mate.

[@KentSurvival]

Thank you.. 3 in a row (not sure I could even watch 3 of my vids in a row haha ;)

[@24913299]

great vid, watched many of your vids ,great food to. subbed.

[@Rexski1]

that was pretty cool dude

[@KentSurvival]

Hello mate :) thanks very much

[@assacoon]

Nice to have the woods to yourself mate, and plenty of dead fall. Result.

[@KentSurvival]

was very peaceful indeed, thanks for watching

[@Peace.Love.Psychedelics]

Robins appear when loved ones are near 🌈

[@hutchinsonsadventures4678]

Second watch... always a good one. Cheers Kev.

[@KentSurvival]

cheers Kev :)

[@uberyoutuber3892]

Wow 9pm and still having that much light out is different. In the states if it's 9pm at any point in the year, with possible exception to the summer solstice, its legit darkness.

[@davidhaynes5157]

yum i love ribs but i don't like the look of that banok stuff, another great vid i think its going to be a long night watching all of your vids but i am really enjoying them

[@KentSurvival]

Ribs are always good!.. bannock can be hit and miss, I did one with wild damsons and blackberries which has been my favourite so far.. want to try cinnamon and raison next I think

[@Loopylulu8]

No one else there... I can hear twigs snapping while u r doing it intro x

[@andyfreer1343]

Ribs delicious iam hungry for this

[@briankleinkopf8557]

i have to say? the syrup from MCD? made my day, LOL ^5 Bro

[@KentSurvival]

nice and portable haha

[@JohnC420.]

I'm stuck in a hotel and now all I want to do is bbq some ribs thanks lmao

[@davidsmeeton6499]

with regards to water, could you not rig up a rain collecting thingy so taht you can use that to make sure the fire is out? Great Vids :) subscribed also. - and you are quite local to me as well.

[@KentSurvival]

Thanks for subbing.. and yes, that would have been a good idea haha Doh

[@stevesoutsideadventures]

Good Video , Breakfast looked awesome , I'm curious to see what your final thoughts are on the Hammock , I'm still trying to decide if I want to do Hammock or Tent

[@KentSurvival]

Thanks, it did taste good :) I am still undecided on the hammock haha, once i have gotten in to position I have been ok but 'fidgeting' is tricky.

[@meanbeetroot3812]

I tree dwell or ground dwell according to fancy or terrain (I'm good to go with either decision cos of the kit I choose, although adding a hammock does add weight and take up room: some might disagree). My tarp set-up is lower than shown here to reduce visibility and control chilly breezes but as I suffer from back pain (hey, the dinosaurs were puppies when I was young) I use knee pads to protect from those unexpected sharp or hard objects placed on the floor deliberately to injure me and piddle me off (those pesky dinosaurs, they'll do anything for a laugh). I sleep at an angle across the hammock and sleep extremely well, snoring like a bear in a cave. In the winter I rub two boy sprouts together until I get flame to keep warm (keep adding boy sprouts for that cozy feeling - actually, unless I have to cold-camp, which usually happens when a fire would give away my presence as sadly I have no permitted sites, I prefer a fire any time of year). Currently experimenting with a home-made rocket style stove to keep tarp warm on cold nights (as Andy has previously alluded to in a another vlog, it's all about experimenting until you find what's good for you): takes up room, though. I prefer the visibility and versatility a tarp provides but ride your own road mate. Ps: as much as I like beer I find a hip flask of rum, brandy or whisky for my coffee (and sometimes cooking) is easier to carry and takes up less room. Thas jus me tho, hic;)

[@meanbeetroot3812]

Just thinking some more about how I actually lie the hammock: I sleep on my back and believe my feet are to the left of the central line and my left shoulder is on the central line. Shouldn't imagine it matters which way you align yourself. Perhaps others sleep in a different position (?) but this works for me.

[@shellymonroe6394]

Good food thank y.

[@KentSurvival]

Thank you Shelly

[@svartedauden3566]

You should do a ''Camping food'' cooking segment like a Gordon Ramsay camping thingy. Your meals look so damn good.

[@KentSurvival]

Thank you.. Ive done a few campfire cooking vids.. hope to do some more soon

[@svartedauden3566]

You should make a camping bushcraft cookout with Srambled O. He does crazy camping food. Check him out if you don't know him yet. ;)

[@edwardkraska9366]

big fan

[@davelynoutdoors6654]

McDonald’s are looking for a long haired bearded chap in the Kent area, apparently he’s been steeling there condiments??

[@davelynoutdoors6654]

Haha just realised why you’ve shaved your head?

[@KentSurvival]

LMAO ... ive been rumbled!

[@robbijohnson6983]

The fast food felon you're not alone Andy I'm also guilty as charged 😂

[@kianmurphy8819]

great video only just came across this but i have subscribed:)

[@KentSurvival]

Thank you and welcome to the channel :) quite an old one this now.. good camp though :)

[@bjsmith3343]

Question: Did you eat two slabs of baby-back ribs and your pan bread for dinner and get up in the morning and eat four slices of bacons and a cart-wheel style pancake complete with McDonalds syrup for breakfast.? Aren’t you allowed to eat at home? ...just asking!!!

[@im4485]

i fast forward to cooking part because it clams me down so much.

[@elvisGT]

Hello buddy, love your videos. Just wondering how do you store all your meat and diary ? Also, not sure if you ever been to west wittering camp sites, can you recommend any ? I know you prefere wild, but maybe from previous experience ? Cheers.

[@KentSurvival]

Hi, In the summer I only take them things if its a 1 nighter, usually ill freeze them and they will be good to go by evening but I also have a small cool bag / lunch bag. I havnt camped around west wittering but you have the new forest and South Downs near by, gotta be some options there. Thanks for watching buddy

[@elvisGT]

Thanks bud! I really appreciate. I'm going for our first one with wifey and daughter , so just trying to find some good spots. I found your vids so helpful, that I don't really want to go on crowded sites, but as you mentioned in some other comments, this land is so small, that its quiet hard sometimes. Keep it up.

[@KentSurvival]

Thanks :) Glad to have helped. yeah, crowded little island haha, there is a website called cool camping that lists alternative sites (like woodland camp sites etc) may have some luck on there.

[@elvisGT]

Thanks once again - looking forward for your new adventures ! \m/

[@carolleenkelmann3829]

I am puzzled...why you didn't do the bacon in the pan first, then the pancake seeing you combined them all in the end. Advantage : the bacon fat is not only very tasty but saves on butter...well, for frying.

[@chrisk3488]

I've always wondered about the whole pancakes, bacon and syrup thing......

[@KentSurvival]

oh I love it, gets a bit weird if you have soft fried egg on the same plate though haha

[@chrisk3488]

Gonna have a go this weekend... :D

[@hutchinsonsadventures4678]

Mate... you just about sporked ya self in the eye haha.

[@KentSurvival]

haha, I don't remember that, ill have to re- watch it

[@davelynoutdoors6654]

Awesome bit of cooking Andy, did you? How did you make that preserved food?

[@KentSurvival]

Thanks David.. do you mean the pemmican? its pretty much dried fruit and chopped jerky chucked in to some melted suet, then set.. last ages, check out townsends channel, they have a great video on it

[@davelynoutdoors6654]

Thanks Andy, found the Townsend channel he’s very interesting. Regards davelyn55

[@Adventure-Cornish]

The ribs looked amazing 😋 Is your bag a Karrimor FS ? If so what do you think of it. Thanks for sharing ATB Mike #StayCornish😬

[@KentSurvival]

Hiya Mike, thanks, they were pretty damn good haha. The bag is the Highlander ProForce 66, they do look similar except the side pouches are attached. Im liking it so far, pretty durable feeling and good access. Will prob have it down Dartmoor if you're still coming along. ATB Andy

[@Adventure-Cornish]

Kent Survival yes I'm still coming mate 😬 Looking forward to meeting you. ATB Mike #StayCornish😬

[@KentSurvival]

nice one.. like wise, see you soon

[@tokoloshe42]

Those ribs look great, i wanna try something like that mayb a fire on both sides? I wanna get a hammock tent with my luck it will break in the night

[@trevorloveridge4387]

Just found your site a few wks ago so have some catching up to do with the vids How did you go about getting permission to camp in woods you use

[@vasiledoci1429]

īm place ce vad la tine👏

[@ozdavemcgee2079]

Andy re hammock. I think its because its a single point mount on end of hammock ...cocoons you. I just put another guys vid on playlist (only vid there). When I saw it I thought yeah that shy I like the permant one my dad has in garden...and not big on camping ones. It'd be a big mod to do to yours. But a few bits conduit plastic pipe eyebolts...doable

[@KentSurvival]

I see your point.. def something to think about trying for sure! Thanks, ill get the hammock out in the spring again.. too cold now as I don't have an under blanket haha

[@c.abarker9915]

Great video as always! About how long did it take the ribs to cook?

[@KentSurvival]

Thanks you. Its so long ago now.. I think it was about 3 hours total :)
