That cooking segment was outstanding.
These videos are the fuel that keeps me going until I can get out in the woods again. My 5 year old loves to come over and watch these, anticipating our next trip. Thank you Corporal.
That meal you cooked. OUTSTANDING !!!
Great video Corporal! I think you've outdone yourself this time with the Ribeye, bacon and stuffed mushrooms. My mouth was watering. I've been searching for years for the Holy Grail lightweight backpacking tent. I'm liking the River Country tent you got there. At least it's green. I almost gave up on looking, all the ultralight tents are either very expensive and also some obnoxious "Telletubby" colors like orange, red, blue and yellow. I like to blend in with the woods.
Damn, when you plopped that steak in the bacon grease, I suddenly realized I was I was drooling and licking my lips.
Eating like an absolute king out there in the woods. That's what I call multi-talented!
I think that shelter is just the ticket. Quick, easy, light. Just about any tent, tarp, shelter, or whatever is gonna come with crap stakes. I wind up using them to hold down my anti-deer netting over my shrubs in the winter. I swear I'm gonna do a ribeye in bacon grease next summer back in my woods. The mushrooms were the real kicker. I'll even add a couple eggs in that grease. I just had breakfast before watching this and got hungry all over again. Good show Corp!

I have never watched so many survival videos in anticipation of what was going to be cooked. Good stuff man, you're making a dedicated in-doorsman thinking about becoming a dedicated out-doorsman.
Swag and online classes!? Hell yeah brother, looking forward to all of it!
Bacon and steak with stuffed ‘shrooms, what else could you ask for. Dang you eat good Corp! Thanks for roughing it for us! LOL,
That intro was mouth watering
You are a good teacher , thank you !
Throwing that veggie bacon in the fire was the best place for it. Good man, that was good to go. Thank you for your channel and your service to our country sir. Your sacrifices for us are truly appreciated.
The speedy sharp is also an outstanding fero rod striker. Try it sometime. Makes it a multi use item. Love your vids. Keep up the good work.
The same company makes a 2 person A frame style tent that works well. It's not much heavier and can be put up using 2 trekingpoles, 2 sticks or a ridge line. Much more room but same versatility in ways of putting it up. I have both tents, price point is amazing for the quality.
Every video I watch I fall more in love with this lifestyle
We enjoy watching these videos as a family. I appreciate you keeping things clean for the kids. My husband suggests the Maxwell House single serving bags (like a tea bag, only with coffee).
When you said " so while were eating here, were gonna have a conversation " that made me laugh, reminded me of my dad. I thought i was in trouble 😂😂😂
Cpl Kelly, you have the most informative and entertaining vids on the tube. Keep up the great work brother.

Just wanted say that watching the consumption of "instant" coffee makes me want to stab myself in the eye with a really hot French fry. Folgers used to make a single serve tea bag thingy full of actual coffee grounds... just a thought!

Trees in the Eastern woodlands make setting up camp MUCH easier. When I camped in the Sierras, trees were abundant too. On Okinawa, a free-standing tent was very handy. Some areas of Canada have more trees than others. Being a native to Michigan, my preference is trees, but I’m adaptable. Courtesy of Half Vast Flying
For camping coffee try the Buphallo Pocket Coffee Filters. They attach to whatever cup you have, and it takes about 2 minutes to make whatever kind of coffee you want. I got them from amazon.
Instead of carrying all those spices, try some Tony chachere’s creole seasoning, it’s good stuff. The video was good , can’t wait for the next one !
Sir, when you threw that veggie bacon into the fire, you made me pass 12 year old Scotch thru my nose. Well played.

When is the corporals corner cookbook coming out?
Car camping has been Much easier for most families for nearly 100 years. I know because Ive been doing it for most of those years (73). It was easier for my working parents to stuff us three kids and themselves into the car with the tent, go as far as the logging roads would take us near a stream, and the boys had fishing while mom and I hunted rocks, built dams, and enjoyed ourselves. Later I did the same until my son discovered the Military Boy Scouts and decided I was too wimpy. Shortly I discovered a group that liked to camp and cook over open fires and recreate history. Grandchildren came and once again it’s throw them in the back of the car with a trunk full of stuff.
Made in USA, GREAT LOVE SEEING THAT. Carry on with the great job. And again thank you for your service.
That bacon fried steak would do great at attracting every bear for miles!👍😊
i don’t know how your food always comes out so good in these videos! i have a whole series on my channel dedicated to cooking in the woods and i can’t even cook it these good half the time. anyways great video!
Love this solo overnighter series, best on the tube...veggie bacon...wrong lol so true. Try Jiva instant on Amazon. Peace
This is a cool cooking channel with some good tips for camping :-)
Great this video 👍👍
Folgers has single serve coffee in tea bag form. Brews just like tea and is better than any instant stuff. Have you ever thought about a video series? One on shelters, one on fires, one on tools..... etc. Maybe different environments or seasons of the year. Different skill levels. Then ‘students’ could purchase the series that fit their style the best. Just food for thought. Keep up the outstanding videos sir

A friend that been backpacking the Smokies for years found a light tent, under three pounds. He liked it so well he bought a spare. I will get name and info and forward it to you. Great video, as usual, I watch all the time!
Also, I love that you bring something new (productwise) in your videos- like new firestarter, or a sharpener, knives, shovels, sleeping pads etc. It's good to see new products and get an idea of what's out there and what would work for you.

Been watching but not commenting because l was thinking about my comments more then the content but l learned how to wait till the end. I do watch what your teaching but l also observe everything, you keep your area remarkably clean and organized. I have to work on that. Thanks Guru.
I like how you give a no-nonsense-no bs assessment of yer gear etc...That's what i like to hear-so much static out there.
Thanks Shawn for another great video.
I had to laugh out loud when you threw that veggie bacon in the fire, too funny!! Love the vids!
I see you aren't too proud to use instant coffee. Good. Might I recommend trying Cafe bustelo brand? Their instant espresso is excellent.
I love the Backwoods Bungalow 2.0. It has plenty of room. As lightweight. And doesn't take up very much space in your backpack.
I use a 1.2kg, 2 pole, dome tent from eBay that cost $15Aus delivered. It's perfect, lightweight, tent packs up to size of a helikon poncho plus the poles. It's waterproof enough and for heavier rain I put my helikon poncho over the top. Done.

Good luck with the coffee situation. Scaled down cowboy coffee is the way to go. KZread cowboy coffee and you should select Kent Rollins video. Should help...
I have been using the pathfinder cup and lid with a strainer for coffee for years. Just pour the coffee and the water into the cup, boil it, pour it, drink it. Good until the last 2 sips; just toss that or pour some more on top. The only time that doesn't work is when someone needs to stir in sugar and cream... but we're MEN! No need for that! :) Love the videos brother! Thank you for that and for your service! God bless!
I made that steak cooked in bacon grease with the onions, all I can say is amazing, Thank you for your service Corporal.
Just say the VEGI bacon. Was about to turn off. You got me. Outstanding. I like veggies too but find they don't have enough meat on them??
Veggie Bacon? Wrong! Tosses in fire... LMAO! That was great! 8^)
First off, that meal made my mouth water... second, your on-line course is a fantastic idea to me. I am on an extreme fixed income, disabled, and would not be able to travel to or afford the course. This would be amazing to me because even though I know alot about outdoors, bushcraft, and survival, I would still LOVE to attend the courses and to meet and work with you and other Pathfinder instructors.
I've just found you channel a few days ago and I have absolutely fallen in love with it. You are very informative and have great ideas and reviews. Keep it up.
Did you find a good pillow? I forgot to comment on one to try. Maybe not compact enough for you but it's small and the best small pillow I have ever used. It "My Pillow" the travel pillow. If you don't use it in the woods then it's great for the recliner at home.
If you want to check out a great little sharpening Stone go on Amazon and check out the Ez-lap medium diamond Stone. It comes with a leather pouch and is a great sharpening Stone. I've carried the same one with me for years now and it always makes my knives shaving sharp with just a few passes on each side.
You gave me a chuckle, you sure make coffee like a Marine. I made coffee for a Major for 2 years, and if he couldn't smell it from home, it was too weak. Also...at the hardware store, get some rain gutter spikes for tent stakes. They work great. Jim
When you threw that steak in the pan, my mouth started watering... Damn that looked good!
Well this just shot my supper of grilled cheeze and fries to hell.. Opening up with steak mushrooms and bacon.. Dang..

Because car camping allow you to carry more weight, use two inflatable pads as the bubbles/grooves will lock together to prevent sliding. Double the thickness and no sore hips.
I hope your tent doesn't leak there I've heard they are junk. The tekker 1.0 and 2.2 leak real bad in heavy rain. Dennis

I’ve had the trekker 2.2 since last spring. Last year it went through three storms with no leaking. This year I went backpacking and we had a slow rain most of the first night. Still no water in my tent. I did follow the directions on how to treat it when I first got it. I also sprayed it again before my trip and touched up the inside bottom corners
If you add bacon seeds to your merch store, I'll order some. Wouldn't mind growing some bacon.
Been binging ya videos since last night.. loving the down to earth attitude... keep it real brother

You're eating better than me and I'm in the comfort of my living room. That's awesome. I love the idea of the training. That's a issue for my area. I haven't found any close by. Keep up the great videos.

Hell yes. At least two days a week it is my morning coffee - only one class, out by 11, so no need to brew a whole pot. And if you look on Amazon, you can get it in the packets.
It's plain and simple, most people who take the time to genuinely cook in the outdoors while camping later realize that they probably eat better out there then they do at home.

Part of the art of being a accomplished out doors person is to use the gear you have at hand to its and your best use and ability to survive and thrive while putting yourselves at minimum risk and to watch a good bushman is poetry in motion as they use minimum effort to kick goals like the corporal unlike some other people people on utube

Once more, thank you sir for an awesome video. Watching you sit by the fire is so peaceful.
This was a great video ! Itt brought back to me all the wonderful times I had going camping just like this , splo and with my sons and friends,.foor many years .
was watching you fry bacon and thought he needs tongs then no they would take up space in the pack that lead to chopsticks and you could make them from branches.
damn, your opening shot of the coming meal is killing me. Just got in from walking the dogs in the woods and fields in the dark for about an hour or more, NOW I AM HUNGRY! Great video!
Great video as always thank you! Speedy sharps are great, and also a redundancy. Sharpener and the ultimate ferro rod striker. I've never been able to sharpen with them to the same level as Brad Buckner does, but they work wonders on my pruners, shovels and hoes. Nothing better for yard tools! Just my two cents on the straight stakes...put some shockcord on the stakes. Attach the shockcord through the loops on the tarp / tent, not the stake itself. This prevents many problems. Securing a guy line via this method is indispensable in moderate to high winds as it is much more forgiving. Love the overnighters!
I have had the trekker 1 for a couple of months now. And have used it extensively. Not the best tent l have had, but does the job. And come on now, under 50 bucks! Have had no leaks. Out standing !! Jim
