frequently asked questions
We recommend that all of our hot meals spend time "steep-cooking™" while snuggled in a Cook-in-Cozy™. We find this method promotes a more consistent temperature and steady cook time for Cook-in-Bag™ preparation; and results in a better serving temperature for your meal. When not in use, our Cook-in-Cozy™ folds away nicely in your pack for storage and weighs in at only 1.4oz.

Probably my favorite meal! You'd have no idea it was vegetarian friendly. Don't forget your tortilla! Yummy

The Trailside Bean & Cheese Burrito meal is my #1 go-to. The first time I sampled PackItGourmet was on a trip last year - and its been on every overnight trip since. The Bean and Cheese Burritos go with my whole family - throw it on a couple street taco sized tortillas and enjoy. My husband throws in a bit of hamburger (available in Grocery) to add more bulk - but the rest of us eat it as is. So yummy and filling - you won't be disappointed.

Finally tried this on a three day trip to Grayson Highlands. Had it on two small flour tortillas and it could have easily filled four. So two hearty burritos and ate the rest straight out of the bag. Delicious and filling! Added a couple of packets of my favorite fast food taco sauce to seal the deal.

Delicious and filling - flavors I fondly remember! We had ours with crackers and tortillas; I'd recommend a carbohydrate to go with this to make it a fuller meal. Will be buying for next backpacking trip!

This is my current favorite. I’ve tried freeze dried refried beans from the grocery store, but THIS STUFF is where it’s at. Spiced and flavorful. Not hot but the Cholula hot sauce gives it that extra if u want it.

This meal is quick and easy on the trail. And it's so good that I was craving more of it after the trip was over!
-
I make something similar to this myself, but decided to give it a go and I was very impressed with the flavor. Worth buying. Only complaint is that they were/are a bit skimpy on the cheese.

Stove used: none This meal made me smile when I read about it on the website. I have been using dehydrated black beans for a fast trail lunch for years. Packit Gourmet takes this idea a step further with this entree. While the instructions call for it to be spooned into a fresh tortilla, I prefer to eat it with a spoon or on bread of some sort. Any way this meal is prepared it is nice to be able to add water to the bag in the morning and have lunch ready by the time I stopped around noon. There were cook and eat instructions, but I went with the 'cold' bag option and had a great lunch. This was a great new take on an old standard for me. While the portion is small, eating it on bread more than fills me up which makes it a great lunch or even an addition to a dinner if I wanted something lighter to top off a big meal.

This makes a terrific lunch on the trail! I packed my JetBoil and made it hot with tortillas and my two boys and I loved it. Hearty and delicious! My 14 year-old son said he would be happy with these at a restaurant.
