Survival and Culinary Catch & Cook | Vancouver Island Canadian Creator Meetup Part 2

[@AwesomeFish12]

I like that he wears his chefs hat and apron and full kitchen attire even when he's trudging through the bush. A real character, and clearly a talented chef.

[@Shianne264]

That dude cruising around in the wilderness and boating with chef gear on is hysterical

[@fumang7946]

Needs to grow up.

[@jonburchell1434]

Dont need that kind of negativity around here fumang, dont be a giant wadd.

[@teresadvorak6145]

Well he's young & inexperienced & playin the part as a chef. He's learning, cut him some slack. He's alright 👍

[@fumang7946]

I am not trying to be mean but larping as a chef is not the same as being a chef.

[@teresadvorak6145]

I like him & he's doin a good job. Thanks Chef 👍

[@OlyCerrito-si3yy]

So nice to shut the rest of the world off and embrace solitude watching Greg

[@lorettathompson4806]

The chef needs to go on a two week camping trip greg

[@andykjohnsonjohnson7622]

Absolutely 💯

[@SafronLemurs]

Just watched “alone” and realized you were on there my wife and I were rooting for you. I hope you built your daughter that house you were talking about!

[@jamesbarron6454]

I think the Chef is awesome. The young man has some great ideas and I wish him much success.

[@teresadvorak6145]

I think so two 👍 👍 👍

[@Onmy47s]

If the lights suddenly flicked off.. The Chef and Greg Ovens would inherit the world. The admiration of these two men is IMMENSE!!!! :D

[@ScottyP777]

These videos with the chef are really good. You guys should do a 30 day survival challenge together.

[@roostermbakb6727]

Looked like an absolute fun time.

[@micahestep7679]

We're all here for you Greg, and the support staff, and Zach Fowler as well. Wishing you the best of success. Spread the word to your friends everyone. Don't keep this a secret.

[@asstaco]

keep what a secret?

[@micahestep7679]

@@asstaco excellent content.

[@lexamehrtens2113]

Wow bulls eye Greg, oohhh,,,,weehhh,,,, like a pro, this adventure is been so fun and got many to things to learn great and awesome knowledge. Thank you Ovens and the rest of the crew.

[@davieguns]

I have a lot of favorite Ovens episodes and this one definitely is in my top 3! Fun, entertaining and educational. I'm addicted and want to see more!

[@suezaple4950]

The chef is so funny and IC Fin is loving the boys company showing them his stick . Awesome the boys and chef are learning some bushcraft skills as well as a few edible plants to eat , love the size of the mushroom . man that is big. Good video Greg.

[@preachta]

Gregg Ovens, my favourite you tuber. No matter how many times I rewatch your videos, I learn something new and exciting.

[@mattiaskeinnn3317]

Hey Greg! I have to say this, I’ve been quietly waiting for a sling shot video it would make a great series watching you learn how to master the slingshot. I realize your eyes may be not as good as in your 20s (no offence)! But i bet you would get good at it. I blasted a pidgeon today in the bush a VERY far shot and i nailed it right on the sweet spot! Made me think of Zachery because he literally inspired me to buy a slingshot, i thought i had enough guns to start with but i love using that thing. Very different from just normal hunting with a rifle. So much more rewarding! I hope you are well, i lost my father in 2023 and he taught me everything useful i know of how to not die in the woods and put food on the table no matter where it is I’ll find it… it feels good watching your channel. Reminds me of all the times out in the woods with my dad. Weeks on end only having very limited food with us and just ate fish or grouse or watever we could get that day. I’m learning valuable lessons about plants and mushrooms from you, that was the only thing I wasn’t very curious of growing up. But im now 32 and I’m starting to see the beauty of it instead of just a shore. our soul are pretty similar and now when pops went ill have to learn from you hehe thanks! im from Lapland sweden. It’s weird how Canadians from where you are from are SO similar to us over here, it feels like we who love the woods, have a remarkable bond to each other world wide, we just want to get a SHELTER, a fire for the night and preferably a bite to eat before going to bed!!!😊

[@alanwatkins672]

I like the small oyster smaller better. Cooked on fire or berquets with butter and garlic

[@Princess-mp8ep]

Whew, I thought I missed it lol. My momma German shepherd had puppies. Having the busiest time of my life 😂❤😂

[@Onmy47s]

Omg mine too. Her name is LadyBirb and she had 13!!!! The runts were twins! in my opinion, they came out together and both identical size and coat pattern. I feel like I had a new born child.. the same level of anxiety again XD so many little lives ice skating in a frozen sea of peril. We got industrial grade coyotes that can dispatch a decent working dog so it’s a constant scare. Best advice I can give, give momma wet food. The babies will smell the food on her and not wander and find trouble. They’ll gravitate to her more often than not. Just pray she’s as liniment as lady XD.

[@teresadvorak6145]

Congratulations Furbaby Grandmas'! 🎉

[@Princess-mp8ep]

@@teresadvorak6145 thank you 🌹

[@andykjohnsonjohnson7622]

New life, coming into the world 😊. Being a prod father( inlaw ) ❤.

[@williamwert9684]

Another great video Greg 👏 you should do a video with steve Wallis. You guys are my favorites on KZbin. And both of you are the most wholesome content creators in my opinion.

[@karennewbury6430]

Good food, good company, good weather, great video. I particularly liked the comparisons with the different ferro rod metals. Very interesting! Hope to see Ms. Barb in the next video.

[@micahestep7679]

I wanna see Greg showing off his sheetrock hanging skills with some floating, taping, texture, and paint.

[@lucasday8918]

This is ducking amazing , I’m a chef and an avid outdoorsman , the culmination of the two makes my heart extremely happy ❤️

[@jessebuckley6867]

Huge thanks to the editing team. You know who you are 😎 Good job as usual guys.

[@sbondesson]

would be cool to see Greg, Fowler and Amos explore the skills of homeless people in and around cities and spend some time teaching and maybe learning with them. Most of the skills used in bushcraft are born from necessity and in the modern world the un-housed surely must possess the survival skills of tomorrow?

[@williamwert9684]

That would be awesome 👍

[@AwesomeFish12]

Literally the hardest thing in the world is to sit back and watch someone else start a fire without interfering, particularly if they are struggling. Man, you just wanna get in there.

[@JeanetteHill-jm7fn]

Just notice Gregg when shot the bow & arrow same like when you casing out your line when fishing soo unique! ❤

[@golDroger88]

Respect for Greg, he didn't waste the broken oyster even though he doesn't like it raw.

[@clivemacken552]

18-24 mths for oysters to become adult they will be around 3” in size then it’s a 1” per year. They are good to clear out your system to as they pass through you fairly quick

[@cloud890]

some guy: "Hey check out these cool sparks". Greg: *Starts shooting fireballs like a real life Harry Potter.

[@syndee8302]

I've watched this 3 times!!! ❤ this group together.

[@davecorner216]

Ooh Greg. What do we say about chef. Number one he is a massive hug in a mug. What a lovely guy open to all your ideas and he is so open to experimenting. Brilliant to watch.😊😊

[@jeffsmith50001]

Fires lit, Chefs lit, everyone's lit. Lets eat.

[@craigh7337]

Greg this is fantastic to see you in the bush with fun and exciting people who share your passion for the outdoors. Right on man.

[@bornwild3955]

I got the feeling that someone was hiding Twinkies under the pillow!!😂

[@craigslater8227]

This chef and his posse really annoys me but Greg is such a nice bloke that it's still fun to watch 😅

[@johnb8087]

couldnt agree more

[@faircato6365]

How sweet is this dog! Man, Fin is such a great dog. Greg you are sure happy to have him around. Wish you a long and happy time with each other!

[@stevenallen2530]

As a home chef/cook whole chicken takes longer than you think to cook. The leg and the attached area is the trubble spot for being cooked at the same time with out drying or burning the rest of the bird. Even in an oven the chicken cooks uneven this is why I always remove the legs before cooking.

[@he4vns3nt]

greg those shots of you in slow-mo look fantastic ! super interesting ferro rod comparison.

[@HighPlainsHiker]

Shout out to the chef. A great guy and a GREAT cook!!!!

[@deeorlando6536]

That was a beautifully roasted chicken. Very impressive

[@Bosundanbushcraft]

The chef was awesome ,,,, guy made me so hungry 😅,,, and I admire his passion he wasn't even slightly phased by being in the woods using fire to cook ,,, a true chef

[@nancyl3843]

Combining bushcraft, friendships, and a professional chef? Nothing better! So much learning watching these videos and so grateful for them! God bless you, Greg, for you have surely blessed us all. QUESTION: What were the temperatures on this trip?

[@Xacerbated]

Great video! Should do a short explaining what to look for in your fero rod

[@SagtWasErDenkt]

I hope , one day you make a video. Who you show us, what the people at 7 vs Wild , at Vancuver Island could eat. And drink.🙏🏼

[@SagtWasErDenkt]

Its a Amazon , Agenda Show. 🙈

[@debbieherrera1605]

If you cook a chicken like that again you could try put a Dutch oven over the top for the last 15-20 minutes. Bet that would make sure it was all the way done.

[@StarZu053]

I think I might got one tip. Dry the salmon before smoking

Fresh PNW oysters 🦪 are the best. And mussels. I’ve found mussels so big they make a whole meal.

[@EdwardWilliams-v5z]

So happy Greg got someone with him, I worry when he's alone, we are not spring chickens, we are old hens

[@MinhChiNguyen-z5f]

My rule of cooking chicken is when the meat Strinks the chicken is done. Or when the drum bone is reviewed

So. Righteous. Got a couple inches of snow here in Philly. Bout time. Cold as poop. Philly winters cant be brutal. 52 yrs. Should know right. Hellow from NE.
