Winter camping "Guilty Food Pleasures"

[Eric Blumensaadt]

My Guilty Food Pleasure in winter is sage sausage patties and buckwheat pancakes with jelly.

What’s yours? Hamburgers?

That sounds delicious Eric. Do you make these from scratch or are they store bought?

Canister stove and frypan?

 

I can’t say I have a ‘guilty pleasure’ but my favorite to keep me warm on the trail is bulletproof brand hot drinks. A Nice coffee with pastured butter, cacao butter, medium chain triglyceride oil,  collagelatin and cinnamon or their Hot Coco Mix. As far as food, food goes I am fond of the Good 2 Go Thai Curry meals. So much fat, flavor and whole ingredients. Really gets the furnace burning.

I may try making your breakfast and combining them into “pigs in a blanket”.

Winter camping guilty pleasures?

Real bacon bits in the buttered mashed potatoes.  Lots of them.  If I’ve planned ahead, I simmer the butter down to drawn butter with crushed garlic in it.  Then the drawn garlic butter goes into the bacon-garlic-buttered mashed potatoes.

Hot cocoa with heavy cream.  And brandy.  Duh.

At home?

At 60N, it is a luxury to score fresh fruits and vegetables in Winter.

Rib eye steaks from Whole Foods; baked potato in foil; mushrooms, onions and lots of butter. IPA’s. Frank Sinatra playing softly. Dog snoring.

If I am outside burning a crap load of calories in winter it’s not a guilty pleasure.

I only ever drink hot chocolate and Whiskey when winter camping, never any other time.

Jello instant Vanilla pudding + Nido whole dry milk + Starbucks Via + chocolate chips.

Guaranteed to make your hiking buddies envious.
