Worth the price. This makes a ton of food - two 20 ounce bowls of mine were nearly full. I'd call this "man food" ;-) Very tasty.

We arrived back to site #46 hungry and ripped open our dinner package for the night: Packit Gourmet's Bangers and Mash. While it cooked, I read Bon Appetit, fitting I thought.

While the mashed potatoes "cooked" in their bag, I simmered the sausage and veggies in the cookpot, and then poured it over the potatoes. It was delicious. Like I-wouldn't-complain-if-I-was-served-it-on-a-weeknight delicious.

I cooked this one up using my Vargo Jet-Ti after arriving late to camp. It made just enough to fill a small plastic bowl. I guess I was hungry as I was hoping for more. The sausage, vegi and gravy part was plenty, I think more potatoes would have been a better balance.

Preparation: Preparation was a little more complicated for this dish. I boiled the recommended amount of water and poured half of it over the dried potatoes in the Cook-In-Bag and set it aside. I cut up the sausage, added it to the remaining water and poured in the dried veggies and broth packet. I simmered the gravy concoction for 7 minutes. When I checked the potatoes they were dry so I added more water. I put the potatoes on one side of the bowl and the gravy on the other side. That way I got some potatoes and gravy with each spoonful.

Taste: This dish also comes with dried crispy onions and a packet of Parmesan cheese. I tasted the bangers and mash and decided to forgo the onions and Parmesan. There was already lots of flavor going on in the bowl. I did taste the onions and they weren't crispy at all and I did not care for the taste.

I love potatoes and was very hesitant about this meal. Instant potatoes are not big on my list of "good things" and this is basically a meal of instant potatoes. This is also another meal where ordering the free "accessory kit" is a good idea. It gave me a clean area to prep the sausage on and that is important since this was a multi-step meal for me."

The first thing I had to do was heat 10 ounces of water on my alcohol stove. Once that came to a boil it was time to pour half the water on the potato mixture which I had dumped in the plastic prep pouch. I dumped the cut up sausage and dried vegetable pouch into the other half of my water and let it soak while I refilled the stove with fuel and got it burning again.

While the sausage and vegetables boiled (Packit Gourmet recommends a simmer), I mixed the potatoes in the preparation pouch and waited. Once I got to the seven minute mark, I pulled the gravy (Sausage and vegetables) of the stove and poured the potatoes back into the pot. I mixed everything rather well, added the parmesan cheese and dried onions, and let it cool. YUMMY. Once again Packit Gourmet has packed a great tasting meal into my mouth. The only down side to this meal was that it was not quite enough for me when I was on the trail and starving at lunch time. I ate it and wanted more. Actually, I needed more. I had to eat some of my cheese to keep me from cooking another meal. This is not really a bad thing, but I would not consider this enough food for a dinner or a lunch if I am VERY hungry. Breakfast though is another thing. While I tried it for lunch, it would definitely make a very filling, hot, and tasty breakfast.
