Always. Thankfully they are available in abundance!
That gravy would come out a lot better if you heater water up to finger hot, then dropped in the butter and powder, mixed the two together until the butter was melted and there was no powder left, then brought it all to a boil while stirring until as thick as you wanted it.

Interesting tip! I may try that next time to help keep from clumping up. The gravy does turn out fantastic, but sometimes it can have some thick, salty sections from the little clumps, but they taste good too! Thanks for watching and commenting!
Looks like a great easy meal, I wonder if I could add a few dehydrated onions, or would that be crazy?

You could add whatever you like to it. I often add onions to various meals as I pove the flavor
My only question is why didn't you dump the gravy mix in with the meat/veg, then top with the potatoes? I make a version of this in my Trangia. I, too, dehydrate all my own stuff including ready-made meals, and also like to build my own MREs out of them

To me, the presentation would be wrong and it would be hard for me to get the consistency that I want. Thanks for watching and commenting!

Anything extra to make it good!
When you use beef it's actually a cottage pie not a Shepard's pie , a traditional Shepard's pie is made with lambs mince

Yes, I mention that in the video and in various other replies to comments here. Everyone here calls this "Shepherd's Pie", and basically very few people have ever even heard of cottage pie. Thanks for the comment!
That looks really good but I hate doing dishes when camping so I make everything the Freezer Bag Way. The bag from the 1st meal of the day turns into garbage bag for all the others. No pot to clean and licking the spoon cleans it. For freezer dried ( dehydrated ) items all the vegetables I get from Harmony House Foods. For fat it is ghee ( Clarified Butter ) which does not spoil since the milk impurities have been removed. Meats are dried here at the house. Each bag is marked with the necessary amount of water and it is brought to a almost boil before adding it to the meal.

I have seen that method a few times. I have tried it a couple of times, but it hasn't turned out well, and you can taste the plastic bag in my opinion. Dishes can be a pain, but my meals are so good and so filling, you look forward to supper time all day when you are out in the woods.. But they do require a lot of dishes... I would love to for you to share some of your recepies @Oldsparkey!

Yeah I know I know. Substitute in some ground lamb for the ground beef and you'll be all set. Everyone where I live calls this shepherd's pie but I know technically it isn't
That's cottage pie

Correct, which is what I said in the packaging section of the video for those who want to be accurate on their terminology. Around here it is called Shepherd's Pie. I am sure you could make it with lamb. Thanks for commenting!
