Grilling food is one of the most rewarding ways to cook in the great outdoors. What’s more salivating than the smell, sight, and sound of perfectly grilled steaks and vegetables? It is not something you do between four walls, it’s a cooking method that involves being outside. The popularity of BBQs is ample proof of that. However, in the wilderness, you won’t have the benefits of using them, unless they are portable BBQs. Of course, the benefits of grilling food are fantastic.

Cooking over a campfire offers unique flavors and pleasure. Although simple, it is not always an easy way to prepare a meal! One of the greatest challenges is precise control of cooking temperature.

Commercial dehydrated meals are convenient for the backpacking crowds. They offer a somewhat balanced meal, lightweight and easy to carry, they are time-savers — nothing to prepare and space spacer, because they are so compact.

They are higher calorie solutions and can be high in sugar and sodium, which, as most people know, can create ailments in the long term. Furthermore, they are pricey!

No surprise: venturing into the wilderness means losing the daily comfort of a well-equipped home. No walls, roof, fridge, living room, and no kitchen counter! The gap between civilized life and wilderness life can be brutal. That’s why every piece of equipment bringing civilized convenience is precious. A combination of table and grill is one of them.

If someone tells you venturing into the wilderness is easy they are either lying or have no experience. Wilderness is no cakewalk. Regardless of someone’s experience level, it’s always intimidating. Mountains, deserts, tundra, forests, jungles, have something in common: they make you feel small. It’s all about doing the first step because once immersed in the wild, just do your best! And most of the time all goes well. But when things go wrong, they turn sourly fast. For sure, a wilderness experience is worth all the doubts, dangers, and pains. But, prepare adequately.

Choose wisely what you carry in the outdoors, because you can’t carry everything! A coffee kit needs to be lightweight and multipurpose if you are a backpacker or a wilderness tripper. We offer thoughts on a few coffee options and suggest solutions based on our experience and products.
