I am gearing up to go on my first backpacking trip and food is really important to me... I love to cook at home and I am very excited to try a new style of cooking outside using my stove and a fire! I am glad I found a video that expands on the more luxury items for cooking instead of focusing on how to get it as bare bones as possible. Great stuff!

After years of making coffee different ways I finally lucked out. I managed to get a Vargo Titanium coffee Filter at a savings. I'm glad you pointed this out , the slower the water is added the better the coffee is , most folks rush it and then complain about the weak coffee. . Your cook kit looks well thought out and should offer years of enjoyment. The size is something , it's about 3/4 the size of my food bag. I ultralight it and section hike. My meals for the most part are the freezer bag cooking method. Since all I need is hot water a small Titanium alcohol burning set works for me. I include a small ( non stick ) titanium frying pad for the 1st morning out eggs and spam. Later down the trial's treats are when I make my trail side pizzas creations using the frying pan.

My best cooking tool, is a cheap BBQ fork, I bought from Walmart for $1. I stick a steak on it and prop it up on an angle over a fire. It is best to use a strip steak and stick the fork in the side of the steak. Or cut a ribeye in half length wise to cook it. I also use it to cook sausage, spam, and pork country style ribs. I sometimes use it to cook meat caveman style on the ashes and use the fork to turn the meat. One recent addition I added is a silicone stemless wine glass. I cook rice/water in the wine glass, inside a cook pot with water in it, to set up a double boiler. This double boiler method won't burn the rice and the silicone wine glass is easy to clean.

I absolutely love the positivey it made my day 🙂

Ive been putting together an emergency type kit for food, water, first aid, etc.... we have that hikers stove ...it's so tiny and screws into the fuel source. My BIGGEST find was getting those sealable, scent-proof food storage bags that I have filled with fresh water and then sealed. If you get stuck somewhere and have all the fancy stuff but no water you're screwed.

That grill definitely seems considerably more streamlined than the older Grilliput option. I use the Stanley pot and GSI nesting cup, so I just use a Ikea French press plunger for coffee. So the coffee filter is redundant to me, but if I were to upgrade to a bigger, better pot, I would definitely find it useful.

Really good items 🎊

I purchased the MSR MugMate a few years ago but eventually started using the instant coffee tubes. The instant coffee wasn’t really satisfying. I dug the MSR out of storage to give it another try. Dregs in the bottom of the cup can be an issue so I put a paper coffee filter into the MugMate, folded over at the top. (around the circumference) You set the MugMate into your cup and slowly add hot water, stirring the coffee/water mixture once or twice in the filter. After adding the water let the MugMate sit in the cup for a few minutes. Remove and enjoy!! It sounds a bit complicated but it really isn’t. The coffee is rich and delicious. I use a Yeti mug at home and the coffee stays hot. Coffee cools off too quickly in the metal cups, especially if you’re outside and it’s cold. Thanks for your informative video. 😎🥾🥾

Awesome little stove, even managed to perform well in 0-ish degree weather melting snow when I got in a pickle winter camping with some sled dogs. I have thought about a different stove, but just don't know that I need anything more at this time! It was only $25 on sale at REI too, when I got it. I do wonder how the original compares to the 2 in practice (worth upgrading or not).

That only works until you need to use the duct tape. Still a good idea though!

I like and use the GSI ultralight drip maker, it works great, just be careful of the plastic legs and clips, especially if the legs are really cold, I don't use a paper filter, it works fine without it, nor do I want to pack filters to use a coffee maker. If you want a slower drip use a finer grind. The only issue I've had with the Etecity (sp?) stove is the flame shape, it's too pinpointed and it burns food in the center of the pan, so I also went with the MSR PocketRocket Deluxe, it dispersed the flame over a wider area of the pan and I longer have that burn in the center thing going on; due to the flame being more dispersed it boils water about 30 seconds longer than the Etecity (sp?). I think a pound for a cookset is way too much weight for backpacking or bicycle camping, no way would I take the MalloMe, and I don't like that it doesn't lock together; I instead got a cheap $6 Ozark kit from Walmart that weighs 12 ounces. The only thing I use to drink out of one mug, no extra cups collapsible or not, it's about reducing weight. The rolling grill is actually very cool, but again it's over a pound of extra weight, since I don't grill, I don't need it, but I especially don't need the weight.

I really like that pan.

For day and weekend trips most people bring too much stuff. I have an old Sierra Club tin cup (serves as a pot, frypan, bannock maker, soup and beverage cup). I carry one 8-ounce butane canister (lasts all weekend) and a Coleman burner head (with a built-in lighter - old style that's probably 30 years old and going strong. New models require a lighter - no big deal). I make tea or coffee, bannock or oatmeal for breakfast; Cup-A-Soup for lunch and freeze-dried meals for supper. Mix and match as you wish but there's no need to haul 20 pounds of food and gear for a short outing. I've camped out for a week using the same basic gear.

Great video learned a couple things. I will mention the MSR pocket rocket 2 is amazing but there is a new Pocket Rocket Deluxe. A little bigger and a little more weight but has twice the wide heat footprint and a little better wind cup around the flame housing. Instead of a jet rocket like the Pocket Rocket 2. The deluxe is more of a camp stove, and can handle bigger pans better for backcountry gourmet cooking! It also boils water a tiny bit faster. And the MSR pepper/salt shaker is cool but that is not enough pepper to last me on a 2 night trip. On a longer trip you will need more spice if cooking from scratch. Tic Tac bottles are great for creating a camping spice rack. 5 containers together is around 3 1/2 inches wide less than 3 inches tall and 1.75 inches wide. Very lightweight and a small amount of space! Nice little rectangle spice rack that would last a week. 7 spices equal roughly 5 inches wide.

Basically everything I didn't like about the Pocket Rocket 2 the Pocket Rocket Deluxe fixed everything I thought needed to be fixed and they went far past my expectations! Better wind resistance and higher heat output in a wider heat footprint.

There is a spectrum in the outdoors with cooking at one and just boiling water to re-hydrate stuff (some do cold water re-hydration). I'm on my second MSR skillet replacing the worn out non stick one with a ceramic one. You can guess that I'm on the cooking side of it! The thing is that cooking involves more washing up - some thing that needs factoring in when wild camping. I had a GSI java drip and thought it worked well but as pointed out below what to do with the grounds. Using filter paper helps as you can add it to a ziplock bag with the rest of the rubbish and it keeps the Drip clean. But that's one more thing more to carry. I like cooking but convenience is king, so I've gone back to using Via or similar. A good 'cook' set BTW but am wondering why you are packing a plate and two mugs.
