Great boil in the bag food

  • Come along to the amazing Summer Moot (21st July - 2nd August), a festival of bushcrafting and camping in a beautiful woodland PLEASE CLICK HERE for more information.
i was going to say that boil in the bag food can never be good, but they do look tasty.
 
God Father,
Did you learn nothing!
You can't beat a squirrel cooked in a mediteranean style, with plum tomatoes, onion, olive oil, a few mushrooms and a hint of garlic - served al fresco (ryhmes with tesco) under the stars with an aroma of ash burning gently!

They are great. Not at all like other boil in the bag food. More like the best ready meals you've ever tasted. Honestly, I'd be happy served the venison one in a resturant.

Making my mouth water just remembering.

Yum.
 
The date on the pack was until the end of 2008.
Well to be honest I still have another pack that I got at the same time in case of an emergency such as there being a shortage of squirrel cooked in a mediteranean style, with plum tomatoes, onion, olive oil, a few mushrooms and a hint of garlic.:)
 
I've had the Venison sausages and the Mushroom Stroganoff - bought in Millets! Both were very good, and priced favourably against the repackaged ratpack meals Millets also sell.

Thanks for putting the link in - I'm just about to place an order...

[edit] order now placed... yum! A pity they won't arrive before the scout camp I'm on this weekend.
 
One thing, the first ones, dont have many Kcals per meal, the main meals are only 240 odd, I would have expected them to be up around the 1000 mark ? 240 fairly sparce for breakfast, far less an evening meal.

Or am I getting the wrong end of the stick as usual ?

I just looked at that product yesterday in Kenilworth in a little health food shop..it looked a substantial meal for one and looked like quality food
 
My missus picked me up "Home Reared Beef in Black Velvet Porter with Maris Piper Potatoes" in Sainsburys the other day. For some unknown reason it was on the reduced shelf at £1.99. The packet's still intact and it's got a long shelf date, so I've no clue really. I'll try it this weekend when I'm out and about.
 
Sainsbury's in Brighton aslo has them. They're excellent, bhtough the portions are about small. A bit of smash ballasts things out though....
