Kids love to do hobo dinners because they make their own and they eat it out of the foil it cooked it. It feels really rustic. And when they caught their own meat, that’s even better!

Simple Gourmet: Bear Stroganoff with Wild Mushrooms
BY Levi Sim Updated: June 6, 2022This recipe is seriously hearty and the perfect thing after a long day hunting. Stroganoff is credited as being a Russian dish, and I gotta believe making it with bear meat is more Russian than using beef. Plus, you gotta save the cows to make all the sour cream you’re going to need.

Prepping 101: $20 Augason Farms 4 Person/48hr Supply at Walmart – Ultimate Survival Food Deal?
BY Paul Helinski Updated: March 26, 2017The Auguson bucket I cover here that I found in my local Walmart is 2x to 3x better in calories per dollar than most of the stuff out there, so that is why I figured it might be a good candidate to compare to what I can really get for the same money, right on the same shelves at Walmart. The bucket and food, at $19.99, work out to 545 calories per dollar. My example bucket comes to 2,000 calories per dollar.

Prepping 101: Canning Boston Brown Bread – Fill Those Empty Ball Jars
BY Paul Helinski Updated: October 16, 2016I was thinking. Does it make any sense to keep a bunch of Ball canning jars full of nothing? That is an easy answer. No. They are insect and rodent proof, so it actually makes a lot of sense to pack them full of at least something, flour, beans, rice, pasta, dried milk powder, anything that will keep for a long time under any long term storage packaging. But what about cooked food? What about processing the jars now with edible food? Veggies don’t have much in the way of calories. Meat is cheaper to buy canned than it is to can it yourself. That was when I remembered Boston Brown Bread.
