My husband and I are fans of Dan's channel... so when you started working with him, we were like, "who's this guy?" You were quiet, hard-working, no fanfare and it kinda made you a mystery without you probably even realizing it. Then, we started watching your vlogs and found you to be very personable, funny, realistic, positive, neighborly AND loves camping while also still that hard-working guy without a lot of fanfare. It's intriguing. We love watching "fixer upper" channels, as well as those who travel so it's just a quirky fun vlog to follow. Even when it's an unvlog. Thank you for inviting us all along. Just do you.
at least the puppy greets you unconditionally without interrogating you on where you have been. And what took you so long! That little Noggins is so adorable.

What a way to end the day, first Dan teasing all the stuff to come, and then a relative calm ride through rural France with Brian. Don't tell the boys that we did have coffee and lunch 😉
Hello Brian! Doing well here in Canada thx for asking! Cooler Temps here with fall settling in, but tomorrow supposed to be a sweltering 28°. Glad you are getting some receipies. Was thinking you could make lots of spaghetti sauce too, freeze, put in containers. Before going camping put in your cooler, will act as a ice block too. All ya gotta do is cook the pasta! Easy peasy 😅 BTW, Dan is lucky to have you working with him 😊
I think it is a grand idea to take a few extra minutes to get a ☕️ coffee. If anyone complains, let them know that you stopped for a coffee so you would be more productive. Thank you for another smile and laugh. I so needed it today.
Thanks again for the behind the curtain look at the chateau (puppy - more puppy - puppy have a name?) You do add just the right flavour to Dan's story and the colour of you own story!
Use the Dutch oven to do your batch cooking. You can make pasta and meatballs and they freeze well. We do pasta and have it with garlic bread. With all the bakeries around you a fresh loaf shouldn’t be hard to fine. I watch you guys hauling those heavy things around and I wonder if you know how blessed you are to be young, strong, and have your health. Enjoy while you can. 😃
Batch cook chilli. Cook a joint of beef in your slow cooker just a splash of water in the bottom. Let it go cold. Slice it and freeze it in several portions……👍🏴🇬🇧
Regarding boar meat - look up 'Civet de Sanglier' and 'Daube de Sanglier' recipes. Great stuff. If you like stews you'll love these. Ideal for batch cooking too. For batch cooking pasta dishes you can either (1) just cook the sauce in bulk on it's own and freeze it in portions and then cook a fresh portion of pasta while you reheat the sauce later, or (2) you can make the sauce as previously mentioned and add the pasta to the sauce and cook it 'til the pasta is almost cooked. Then when you reheat it the pasta will finish cooking. Another Q&A would be good. Likewise (if you felt like sharing) a tour of your land/house etc.
Keep on keeping on Brian! You are the most wonderful ‘antidote’ for a very long crap day! 😊 As I’m someone of Irish descent I fell in love immediately with your gorgeous Irish accent 😅Seriously your vlog is the bomb - it helps me calm down after a long day! Daylight saving arrives back in New Zealand this coming Saturday - thank goodness! Can drive home in the daylight from work. Keep doing you - you are the perfect recipe, ps Need my coffee too x NZ 🇳🇿👏🏻
My hubby and I use batch cooking. We use a meat and veg wholesaler and spend a couple of days a month batching. We do stew, soup, chilli, bolognaise, curry, (hairy bikers) sausage casseroles, pulled pork, roast gammon, roast chicken and slow cooked roast lamb. we portion up and freeze in takeaway type tubs and then vacuum seal in bags(remember to label them otherwise you end up playing pot luck rather than pot roast lol. When we want something, we let it defrost or not depends if we planned and we boil in the bag (cheap sous vide) and we cook the rice or pasta in the water. All in one pot. If you’re BITB from frozen it takes a bit longer but it’s easier than having it burn by turning straight out in to a hot pot. There are also a lot of things that you can freeze - cakes, cheesecake and surprisingly eggs ❤ feel free to message if there is owt we can help with. Love the vlogs, keep up the amazing things you do for us viewers / subscribers. Stay safe and well, love to Dan and fam, Asbo Gandalf, Cameron too and orange pant man xxx
Love the way you show us all the bits that Dan edits out! I feel as if, since you started doing this alternative POV, we are getting to see some "behind the scenes" truth.
Wild Boar Ragu recipe For best results, make this the day before you want to eat it and refrigerate it overnight. 1 large onion, chopped; 2T olive oil; 1 kilo boneless wild boar meat, chopped for stew; 1 tin chopped tomatoes (San Marzano are best); 1 cinnamon stick; 3 bay leaves; 1 cup red wine; 5 cloves garlic, crushed; 3 dried chillies; 5 cloves; 3 sun-dried tomatoes; 3 anchovies; pinches of oregano, basil, sage; 1 T red wine vinegar. Sauté the onion and the meat til browned. Deglaze the pan with the wine. Add the rest of the ingredients, bring to a boil, then simmer, covered for about three hours, til the meat is tender. You can serve it over pappardelle pasta with grated pecorino cheese.
As for the boar … perfect for Hungarian stew. Tomato sauce and onions and really hot Hungarian paprika powder. Fry the meat pieces in oil until browned, add chopped onions, a couple of tsp tomato paste, the paprika powder (to taste), some salt, black pepper and a bay leaf. Perhaps a tiny Chilie. And a few chopped garlic cloves. Both the tomato and the paprika needs a fry before you add some water to cover the lot. Let it simmer until the meat is tender and most of the liquid is gone. Add a bit more water if needed (no idea how tough your boar meat is...) Throw in a few champions at the end and finish off with some wiping cream or thick Greek or Turkish yoghurt or possibly crème fraiche. And as you are in France, why not taste it off with a lick of sherry😂 Now, if you make a really large pot of this, your full Dutch oven for ex., you can halt before completely cooked and the cream/youghurt, divide the lot in half and add to the second half lots of caraway seeds and more chilies plus a few roughly chopped carrots. When done stir in a few packages of ready cooked black beans and voila you’re in Mexico…
When you do the batch cooking, remember to stop a bit before it's really done. Like about 10 min less. The process of freezing and reheating will finish it right. Also, so jealous about the boar meat. 🐗
I have a fun Dutch oven project for you. One day, when it's cold at the Chateau, dig a shallow pit and start a campfire in it. When you leave that afternoon, over the coals. The following day, start the fire up again over the coals from the night before. What that's burning, add everything you like in your stew into your Dutch oven pot. Season it, too. Now dig out all but the bottom of the coals, put your closed Dutch oven in it, then surround it and cover it with the hot coals. Leave it alone all day. Whenever you're ready to eat, unearth the pot and feast. We'll do this while we're at camp, and we come in for a home-cooked meal that was put on before we left. It cooks perfectly and is delicious.
Batch cooking; the way to go! Each big batch makes me 4-6 dinners for two. Perfect for camping re-heating. Plastic containers can stack, be washed and used again. Saved my kitchen slavery. Big money saver also. Cob corn husked, can be vacuumed sealed with salted butter, put in boiling water (campside) and voila!!!
Split pea n ham using the boar. I don’t know if you can find foil pans with lids in France (we have them here in Canada), but I use these to make individual lasagna’s. I’ll batch cook them and freeze them for later. Same with shepherds pie. Perfect for those nights when you get home late or just don’t have the time to make something etc.
Today you can get one electric bench-top device that combines a (croc-pot) slow cooker, a steamer and a pressure cooker. They are great. Soooo useful. You can do all your batch cooking in that. Freeze in batches. Take meal sized bags away camping. I make potage with onions, a tin of lentils (&meat), coconut milk, veggies & citrus zest during the winter. Tasty way to have lentils and easy reheat meals :) enjoy
Nick is right, a dutch oven is fantastic for cooking a chicken, stews and bread (lined with parchment paper - lid on). A high moisture to flour ratio bread will develop an amazing crust when cooked in a dutch oven. We would batch cook stews, curries and chili and freeze in bags flat and they would then become the ice for the ice box/cooler/esky/chillybin. A couple of curries that you could make camping that would be super quick especially if you pre cooked the chicken and freeze in portions to take for curry camping. Butter chicken (slightly sweet and mild) If preparing chicken at home prior to camping, marinating the cubed chicken breast increases the flavour. Otherwise just cook the plain cubed chicken in your one pot till almost cooked through - remove from the pot to rest while you make the sauce. t=teaspoon 5ml T=tablespoon 15ml garlic/ginger paste is equal amounts fresh grated ginger and pressed garlic a titch of water can help make a better consistency Marinate 1/2 c yogurt 1T garlic/ginger paste 1/4 t salt 1/2 t turmeric 1/2 t cumin 1/2 t curry powder 1/4 t garam masala 1/4 t cayene 1t lemon juice 1t veg oil Mix it all together and marinate the chicken up to 24 hours. Then line a baking sheet, put the chicken cubes on and broil 3-4 minutes each side till browned all over. Prior to camping put together these 3 small containers (or baggies) 1) T butter/ghee and 1t garlic/ginger paste 2T finely chopped onions 2) 1t tomato paste, 1/4 t salt, 1/2 t cumin, 1/2 t turmeric 3) 2T shredded coconut, 3 T yogurt, 1-2 T sugar, 1 t raisins, 2 t peanuts - (raisins and nuts are optional) To make curry -fry the contents of bag 1 over medium heat till fragrant -add bag 2 and stir constantly for a minute or two -add bag 3 and cook for another 2 minutes -add chicken cook for 3 minutes Add a can of evaporated milk and cook over med -hight heat. As it the sauce starts to thicken be careful because it can curdle quickly, its a fine line. Take it off the heat and if you have it - 2 drops of rosewater, a small piece of butter and shaved almonds to finish (I rarely do the finishing elements even at home) This basic curry sauce will also work well with chickpeas. Great with naan and rice If you have two pots and one burner, boil water for rice, add the rice cook for 5 minutes then remove from heat and leave the lid on while you make your curry. It will be perfectly cooked when your curry is ready.
Thank you for sharing these menu ideas as they sound delicious. Thank you for the recipes for listing the amount of ingredients in a recipe. (from the States)
You are such a sweetie Brian. My son reminds me of you, he has your spirit. Hope your recipes go well, and make sure you have food indoors!! You run out too often!! Have a good day at work and take care.XX
Hey Brian get yourself a Ninja Foodi which is a combination of a slow cooker, an air fryer, dehydrator (depending on the version). You can make stews, grill meat, make the best fries. Make your stews at home and freeze portions to take on your camping trips to heat over an open fire in a saucepan! Eat like a king!! Love your humour!
If you buy a slow cooker, prepare it in the evening, then in morning, turn it on low before you go to work. Alldone when you get home, house smells amazing. Make enough for 4 meals, eat one that night & freeze the rest in single portions. Slow cookers usually come with recipe books. Any beef recipe will work with boar! Enjoying your vlogs, oh, & nice hair cut! 😊
The Two French classics Bœuf bourguignon and Coq au Vin are also suited really well for batch cooking. 🧑🍳 BTW I am sure Bœuf bourguignon or Coq au vin recipes will also work with boar. Tasty!
Anther idea are prepared and cured pieces of meat to put on skewers & cook over a camp fire. It does not have to be super quality if you put the pieces in a plastic bag with smashed Kiwi fruits over night before you rinse off the kiwi, season with salt and pepper and pack in batches enough for one meal each to put in the freezer. Definitly more fun than sausages.
Love the channel Brian, keep it going. When we lived in Italy we had access to wild boar and the first time I asked our builder for advice on how to cook it. He explained and it was just the same as my normal stew recipe (dry the meat, cube, flour and season, seal, onions, crrots, celery etc., a bottle of wine and cook for many hours). But he said, you must put in walnuts to remove the wild taste. So I did as he said and reported back: "Delicious and the walnut just disappeared." "Disappeared ? You're supposed to leave it whole in the shell !". I made it many more times, never again with walnut and it was always a delight. On the build, when you're hoisting the beams, can you not fix a loose strap higher up the cable, not to take any weight, just to hold the top of the beam against the cable so it goes up completely vertical ? I suggested this on Dan's channel, but he gets so many comments I doubt he ever saw it. Good luck.
Love the car rides, music, chatter and lovely stories. If people see you talking to yourself, just tell them you have invisible friends. Ask your friend if Boar meat needs more fat. I have no idea. Wild meat tends to be very lean and needs to be cooked in fat. If you get a food mill you can grind the meat (depending on how much you were gifted) Sounds crazy, but you can freeze mashed potatoes! They don't change at all. You could make Sheppard's Pie and then freeze it. Brian, I think you're going to need a bigger freezer! You can keep it in your work shed. Recipes can be googled. You, Dan and Nick can have a cooking party! It's always more fun to cook with friends, although you may have more than enough time together during the week.. Make loads, freeze it and Bob's your uncle.
Boar meat -> ragu (Italian pasta sauce --- which is brilliant for batch cooking -- divide into portions before freezing) BTW boar prosciutto is amazingly delish.
I’m looking so much forward to your vlogs due to the relaxed, down to earth presentation. Keep doing them, even if it’s just a short, I will be watching.
you can do batch pasta, if you break your meal into two parts. 1. Make the pasta sauce and freeze it in appropriate serving containers . 2. Bring the frozen sauce to the campground and cook the pasta separately. Combine - bingo! Don't forget to bring and bit of grated cheese. Btw - as sell as stew, you can make brilliant pasta sauces with your boar meat.
Cassoulet would be another good thing for batch cooking. Also things like stuffed peppers, meatballs, meatloaf, lasagna - they all freeze and reheat well. You get yourself a Dutch oven like Nick suggested and you could reheat all those things very well.
I think Dan is showing how much confidence he has in you Brian … letting you out to get those very important bits & bobs for a very important job…. Well done for completing the task sooo well !!!👏👏👏👏😉😉🤣 I find it rather strange as you take us around the little villages in rural France …. No traffic !!!!!! Very interesting observation … Durban SA🇿🇦
Slow Cooked wild boar stew would be very tasty, i batch cook chilli, spag bowls, beef curry, soup and many more. It's great when you don't feel like cooking so long as you don't forget to take it out of the freezer. 😊
Crock pot beef bourguignoin is the BEST. I use Chuck beef, and cut it into 2 x 2 x 4 (ish) inch hunks. You sear it, then stick it into the crock pot along with the sautéed onion, carrot, bacon mixed with beef broth, tomato paste, sage and the other recipe spices. I add pearl onions. Let it cook all day, then add mushrooms and the red wine during the last hour. It’s good with potatoes or pasta and freezes nicely.
Saute 1 lb of mince. Drain off most of the oil; Add sauce: 1/2 tsp garlic powder, 1/2 tsp ground ginger; 1/2 cup brown sugar; 1/4 cup of soy sauce, 1 tbs sesame oil; 1 tsp of sirracha. Cook until moisture is absorbed. Add 6 cups of shredded napa cabbage, 2 grated carrots, 2 green onions chopped let it all wilt. Voila - 1 large pot meal.
You can batch cook beef stroganoff(or boar!). Without the noodles. Bag is, freeze it. Cook your noodles at the campsite(which we know you can do), and heat the stroganoff and put over the noodles. You can also do single serve pot pie-with or without crust, and heat those at the campsite as well. Or even at home, throw them in the oven when you get home, get a shower and a cuppa, throw some bread and butter on the table, and you got easy dinner. I buy disposable aluminum pie pans, or you can get single pie plates or casseroles dishes(glass) at the second hand shops.
Chili Con Carne is a winter favourite in our house, i always make a large batch and freeze for another meal. Chicken curry with yams, potatoes and peas.🇨🇦❤️
Brian - A great American batch dish is chili with tinned beans & canned 🌽. Try finding online packets of Williams Chipotle Chili seasoning. Slow roast your boar in your dutch oven & batch-save equal amounts of the cooked meat. Then, combine one tin each of pinto, red, light red, black, 'navy beans, one tin of stewed tomatoes, & one tin 🌽 to ½ to ⅔ kilo of meat to one packet of flavoring. Chop up a med. sweet onion per batch. Mushrooms, garbanzo beans, are good too. Batch up in liter bags & freeze. Add grape tomatoes to a batch being reheated for serving. It can be served with cooked rice, corn bread, or over pasta. Bon appetite!
A lot of driving in rural France for stuff. That’s the only negative about living there. Positives nice empty roads, distance from neighbours, lovely views of land, trees, wildlife and pretty villages with amazing architecture
I just bought my first cast iron dutch oven and after a weekend of using it, can not believe I've gone this far in life without one. Far better than a crock pot as the meat stays moist and extremely easy to use. As everyone is saying, batch cook your meals and you'll enjoy higher quality meals after working all day.
Hey Bryan. I live alone in Normandy and I like to eat good home cooking. I never cook just a serving for a meal. Like yesterday's pasta with fresh tomatoes made into sauce became today's pasta salad with tuna, onion, olives.chopped fresh tomato a bit of mustard and mayo. Two completely different meals, one hot, one cold. I have visitors so wanted something quick but tasty. Another great meal is chili con carne. I mean like a 5 quart pot that you can eat with rice or on its own and after a couple of meals put the rest into freezer bags to take out in a pinch. This works for so many different types of food. Get that dutch oven out and dusted off for some great meals! Paul
Hi Dan, Love your Vlogs! One of my family’s favorite simple meals is affectionately called Slop. In a sauce pan or skillet put smoked sausage cut into small slices. After you have browned off pour in a can of green beans, corn and cubed potatoes (juices included) add 1 chopped onion and salt and pepper to taste. It is so good and so easy. Enjoy!
When I have big hunks of pork, I make pulled pork Mexican. Carnitas. Slow cooked, and then quickly fried put in a flour tortilla with sliced avocado, lime juice, cilantro, and chopped onion or pico. You. CAn also freeze some of the leftover pork and make enchiladas later or more tacos later. You can find easy recipes for cooking the meat in your choice of pots. Can you find tortillas in France?
Boar meat? Ham cubed into small cubes, sautéed in butter, onions, garlic added to quartered potatoes and green beans. How about vegetable soup of everything from the garden cooked with a nice Chuck roast. Needs bay leaves, cabbage, and lima beans along with green beans, corn, potatoes, and carrots. Add beef bouillon, salt, pepper and garlic. Makes great freezer meals, both recipes.
Ummmm ASBO Gandalf 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I absolutely love it 😂 Yeah I umm saw the bag of Seimen comment on Dan's Vlog I will be good and not repeat it 😂 Yep that puppy is certainly an expert at working that cuteness now. Some excellent ideas from people re camping food I can't help sorry I loathe camping (I have traumatic personal reasons for it so please don't tell me I am 'missing out'). I still enjoy watching you do it though just not for me 😂
Brian we love these videos of you just doing what you need to do to keep the BOSS happy having to run all over rural France to round up bits and pieces for Dan. Love it gotta get a coffee!
Love a bit of batch cooking and putting it in the freezer for later. We do mac and cheese in the slow cooker. 1kg of pasta, 2litres of full fat milk, 7-9tbsp of flour, powdered mustard 2-4tsps, paprika, black pepper, meat of your choice. We add chorizo but bacon works as well. If you use bacon, probably around 10-12 rashers. Chicken doesn't really work. 300g parmasean and 700g of cheddar. This will make absolutely loads but it can be frozen. For one person, I'd say half the portions I've given. Cook on high for 3 hours. You can slice tomatoes on the top. We have also done a green curry, stew and a mix for fajitas. If you do a bolognaise mix I'd use beef chunks rather than mince.
You can cook up a batch of the bolognaise meat sauce and then add to some pasta and the same ingredients but with chilli Liver n onions with mash potatoes We usually add peppers mushrooms and onions as a filler to most of our casseroles.
Brian....buy a wide top flask...when you go camping heat up your Irish Stew put it in the pre heated flask and it should be lovely and warm for you on your camping trip. .... Easy peasy ....... fynesartphotography Dublin
Anything you find in your grocery store freezer section you can freeze at home. A good place to look for inspiration as well. You can freeze in mason jars just leave an inch or two head space for expansion of the food when freezing. I like using the wide mouth jars for the easiest removal of chunky foods like potatoes, carrots and beef chunks. Plastic Zip bags have a tendency to break/leak in my experience. Good luck...
Hi Brian. Cast iron frying pans make great frittatas. Basically cook veggies you like such as diced onions, garlic, sliced mushrooms, diced zucchini, red pepper, salt & pepper. Can add a bit of basil pesto. Whip up some eggs, depending on how large a frittata you want, pour over the veggies in the frying pan, sprinkle with shredded cheese, whing it into the oven 400F, cook until a knife placed into the middle comes out clean. Small frittatas (4 eggs) take about 20 minutes. Larger a tad longer. This dish reheats in a low oven very nicely. Love it with crusty bread. Good luck. Keep on keeping on. 😊😊😊
Batch cooking doesn’t just work for stews and curries. Use Dan’s grill and batch grill a variety of meat. Once cooked, let it cool and then freeze. Thaw, heat & eat you just have to prepare a side dish or salad and you’re set. I always grill extra since I’ve got the grill hot I might as well make full use of the cooking surface. Added bonus is the flavor the grill adds to the meat. Another use for the boar is a pulled bbq. Grilled meat and sauce, it’s simple and it freezes well. The grill hack works great for ribs, brisket, hamburgers, chicken, steak, sausages and hot dogs. A real time saver, just take out of the freezer the night before and let it thaw in the fridge and it should be ready to just heat up when you get home.
You can pre make soup and freeze them in frozen package and just heat in a pot. Lentil soup , pumpkin soup , mushroom soup. Broccoli and cheese soup. Yum. 😊 I have recipies from scratch to much to type here. Baked macaroni and cheese make a butter flour and milk melt cheese cook pasta add to cheese. Normally you bake it but you can eat it like that.
Brian i bought myself a Ninja 9 in 1 its great does so much air fryer oven slow cooker pressuer cooker and more fast cooking brillant could be just the tool you need
chicken fahitas is one of our go-tos for camping. Jambalay. Precooked so you just reheat on the fire. Salmon en Papillote is also easy. Don't forget your s'mores!!
My husband and I are fans of Dan's channel... so when you started working with him, we were like, "who's this guy?" You were quiet, hard-working, no fanfare and it kinda made you a mystery without you probably even realizing it. Then, we started watching your vlogs and found you to be very personable, funny, realistic, positive, neighborly AND loves camping while also still that hard-working guy without a lot of fanfare.

at least the puppy greets you unconditionally without interrogating you on where you have been. And what took you so long! That little Noggins is so adorable.
Cook in big batches. Freeze in single helpings. Microwave as needed. Single people's delight!
Don’t microwave, kills all the nutrients.

Another good batch size dish and freezable meal is chili. I like white chicken chili, or taco soup.
What a way to end the day, first Dan teasing all the stuff to come, and then a relative calm ride through rural France with Brian. Don't tell the boys that we did have coffee and lunch 😉
Hello Brian! Doing well here in Canada thx for asking! Cooler Temps here with fall settling in, but tomorrow supposed to be a sweltering 28°. Glad you are getting some receipies. Was thinking you could make lots of spaghetti sauce too, freeze, put in containers. Before going camping put in your cooler, will act as a ice block too. All ya gotta do is cook the pasta! Easy peasy 😅 BTW, Dan is lucky to have you working with him 😊
I’m glad I’m not the only one that had a chuckle about the Semin bags. 😊😊😊
😂yeah two bags full seems excessive… or some kinda party.
@@TheSofres like Nic’s comment, put the Semin in the hole. 😅
I think it is a grand idea to take a few extra minutes to get a ☕️ coffee. If anyone complains, let them know that you stopped for a coffee so you would be more productive.
Thank you for another smile and laugh. I so needed it today.
You can stop for a coffee as long as you bring some back for the two guys.
Brian, go really go! Just stay the way you are, please. It is just so refreshing…..
Thanks again for the behind the curtain look at the chateau (puppy - more puppy - puppy have a name?) You do add just the right flavour to Dan's story and the colour of you own story!
Always give me a giggle, love the banter,between you and Dan, brilliant. Yes on the stew in batches, or curry, can't go wrong on a cold night.❤

Wild boar chilli!!!! Get in my mouth! (I used to live in Germany where you could get things like fell off a lorry boar or venison.)
Regarding boar meat - look up 'Civet de Sanglier' and 'Daube de Sanglier' recipes. Great stuff. If you like stews you'll love these. Ideal for batch cooking too.
For batch cooking pasta dishes you can either (1) just cook the sauce in bulk on it's own and freeze it in portions and then cook a fresh portion of pasta while you reheat the sauce later, or (2) you can make the sauce as previously mentioned and add the pasta to the sauce and cook it 'til the pasta is almost cooked. Then when you reheat it the pasta will finish cooking.
Another Q&A would be good. Likewise (if you felt like sharing) a tour of your land/house etc.
Asbo Gandalf, love it!! 😂😂😂

Wild Boar Ragu recipe
For best results, make this the day before you want to eat it and refrigerate it overnight.
1 large onion, chopped; 2T olive oil; 1 kilo boneless wild boar meat, chopped for stew; 1 tin chopped tomatoes (San Marzano are best); 1 cinnamon stick; 3 bay leaves; 1 cup red wine; 5 cloves garlic, crushed; 3 dried chillies; 5 cloves; 3 sun-dried tomatoes; 3 anchovies; pinches of oregano, basil, sage; 1 T red wine vinegar. Sauté the onion and the meat til browned. Deglaze the pan with the wine. Add the rest of the ingredients, bring to a boil, then simmer, covered for about three hours, til the meat is tender. You can serve it over pappardelle pasta with grated pecorino cheese.
Thats quit a concoction with the cinnamon, anchovis and so on!
Yuck😢
As for the boar … perfect for Hungarian stew. Tomato sauce and onions and really hot Hungarian paprika powder.
Fry the meat pieces in oil until browned, add chopped onions, a couple of tsp tomato paste, the paprika powder (to taste), some salt, black pepper and a bay leaf. Perhaps a tiny Chilie. And a few chopped garlic cloves. Both the tomato and the paprika needs a fry before you add some water to cover the lot.
Let it simmer until the meat is tender and most of the liquid is gone. Add a bit more water if needed (no idea how tough your boar meat is...) Throw in a few champions at the end and finish off with some wiping cream or thick Greek or Turkish yoghurt or possibly crème fraiche. And as you are in France, why not taste it off with a lick of sherry😂
Now, if you make a really large pot of this, your full Dutch oven for ex., you can halt before completely cooked and the cream/youghurt, divide the lot in half and add to the second half lots of caraway seeds and more chilies plus a few roughly chopped carrots. When done stir in a few packages of ready cooked black beans and voila you’re in Mexico…
Thank you Brian.....always fun!!

When you do the batch cooking, remember to stop a bit before it's really done. Like about 10 min less. The process of freezing and reheating will finish it right.
Also, so jealous about the boar meat. 🐗
I have a fun Dutch oven project for you. One day, when it's cold at the Chateau, dig a shallow pit and start a campfire in it. When you leave that afternoon, over the coals. The following day, start the fire up again over the coals from the night before. What that's burning, add everything you like in your stew into your Dutch oven pot. Season it, too. Now dig out all but the bottom of the coals, put your closed Dutch oven in it, then surround it and cover it with the hot coals. Leave it alone all day. Whenever you're ready to eat, unearth the pot and feast. We'll do this while we're at camp, and we come in for a home-cooked meal that was put on before we left. It cooks perfectly and is delicious.
Dont quit your day jobs !! 😂, thanks for being you !!
You are a funny! Grinning nonstop through the whole thing…laughed out loud a bit too. Love your accent.
Batch cooking; the way to go! Each big batch makes me 4-6 dinners for two. Perfect for camping re-heating. Plastic containers can stack, be washed and used again. Saved my kitchen slavery. Big money saver also. Cob corn husked, can be vacuumed sealed with salted butter, put in boiling water (campside) and voila!!!
Split pea n ham using the boar. I don’t know if you can find foil pans with lids in France (we have them here in Canada), but I use these to make individual lasagna’s. I’ll batch cook them and freeze them for later. Same with shepherds pie. Perfect for those nights when you get home late or just don’t have the time to make something etc.
Today you can get one electric bench-top device that combines a (croc-pot) slow cooker, a steamer and a pressure cooker. They are great. Soooo useful. You can do all your batch cooking in that. Freeze in batches. Take meal sized bags away camping. I make potage with onions, a tin of lentils (&meat), coconut milk, veggies & citrus zest during the winter. Tasty way to have lentils and easy reheat meals :) enjoy
Yes! Use the Dutch oven to make stew. You can also bake in them!
Nick is right, a dutch oven is fantastic for cooking a chicken, stews and bread (lined with parchment paper - lid on). A high moisture to flour ratio bread will develop an amazing crust when cooked in a dutch oven. We would batch cook stews, curries and chili and freeze in bags flat and they would then become the ice for the ice box/cooler/esky/chillybin.
A couple of curries that you could make camping that would be super quick especially if you pre cooked the chicken and freeze in portions to take for curry camping.
Butter chicken (slightly sweet and mild)
If preparing chicken at home prior to camping, marinating the cubed chicken breast increases the flavour. Otherwise just cook the plain cubed chicken in your one pot till almost cooked through - remove from the pot to rest while you make the sauce.
t=teaspoon 5ml
T=tablespoon 15ml
garlic/ginger paste is equal amounts fresh grated ginger and pressed garlic a titch of water can help make a better consistency
Marinate
1/2 c yogurt
1T garlic/ginger paste
1/4 t salt
1/2 t turmeric
1/2 t cumin
1/2 t curry powder
1/4 t garam masala
1/4 t cayene
1t lemon juice
1t veg oil
Mix it all together and marinate the chicken up to 24 hours. Then line a baking sheet, put the chicken cubes on and broil 3-4 minutes each side till browned all over.
Prior to camping put together these 3 small containers (or baggies)
1) T butter/ghee and 1t garlic/ginger paste 2T finely chopped onions
2) 1t tomato paste, 1/4 t salt, 1/2 t cumin, 1/2 t turmeric
3) 2T shredded coconut, 3 T yogurt, 1-2 T sugar, 1 t raisins, 2 t peanuts - (raisins and nuts are optional)
To make curry
-fry the contents of bag 1 over medium heat till fragrant
-add bag 2 and stir constantly for a minute or two
-add bag 3 and cook for another 2 minutes
-add chicken cook for 3 minutes
Add a can of evaporated milk and cook over med -hight heat. As it the sauce starts to thicken be careful because it can curdle quickly, its a fine line. Take it off the heat and if you have it - 2 drops of rosewater, a small piece of butter and shaved almonds to finish (I rarely do the finishing elements even at home)
This basic curry sauce will also work well with chickpeas. Great with naan and rice
If you have two pots and one burner, boil water for rice, add the rice cook for 5 minutes then remove from heat and leave the lid on while you make your curry. It will be perfectly cooked when your curry is ready.
Thank you for sharing these menu ideas as they sound delicious. Thank you for the recipes for listing the amount of ingredients in a recipe. (from the States)
Hi from Johannesburg, was a public holiday here Heritage Day, today so a quiet day. So happy your vlog’s come through to end the day.
You are such a sweetie Brian. My son reminds me of you, he has your spirit. Hope your recipes go well, and make sure you have food indoors!! You run out too often!! Have a good day at work and take care.XX
Sauerkraut and pork, slow cooked with mashed potatoes !
Hey Brian get yourself a Ninja Foodi which is a combination of a slow cooker, an air fryer, dehydrator (depending on the version). You can make stews, grill meat, make the best fries. Make your stews at home and freeze portions to take on your camping trips to heat over an open fire in a saucepan! Eat like a king!! Love your humour!
What a greeting committee you have with the dogs and the PUPPY! Better than the approval of Dan and Nic any day.
Food prep food prep food prep!!
Good for you. Simple. Satisfying.
Saves a ton of money too!
I've watched enough of your vlogs to start recognizing places. It's cool to say "I've seen that before!".
If you buy a slow cooker, prepare it in the evening, then in morning, turn it on low before you go to work. Alldone when you get home, house smells amazing. Make enough for 4 meals, eat one that night & freeze the rest in single portions.
Slow cookers usually come with recipe books. Any beef recipe will work with boar!
Enjoying your vlogs, oh, & nice hair cut! 😊
The Two French classics Bœuf bourguignon and Coq au Vin are also suited really well for batch cooking. 🧑🍳 BTW I am sure Bœuf bourguignon or Coq au vin recipes will also work with boar. Tasty!
Anther idea are prepared and cured pieces of meat to put on skewers & cook over a camp fire. It does not have to be super quality if you put the pieces in a plastic bag with smashed Kiwi fruits over night before you rinse off the kiwi, season with salt and pepper and pack in batches enough for one meal each to put in the freezer. Definitly more fun than sausages.
Love the channel Brian, keep it going.
When we lived in Italy we had access to wild boar and the first time I asked our builder for advice on how to cook it. He explained and it was just the same as my normal stew recipe (dry the meat, cube, flour and season, seal, onions, crrots, celery etc., a bottle of wine and cook for many hours). But he said, you must put in walnuts to remove the wild taste. So I did as he said and reported back: "Delicious and the walnut just disappeared." "Disappeared ? You're supposed to leave it whole in the shell !". I made it many more times, never again with walnut and it was always a delight.
On the build, when you're hoisting the beams, can you not fix a loose strap higher up the cable, not to take any weight, just to hold the top of the beam against the cable so it goes up completely vertical ? I suggested this on Dan's channel, but he gets so many comments I doubt he ever saw it.
Good luck.
What joy that little puppy has when it sees you! Nice drive through the old town
Ah! A dutch oven is an excellent idea. With regard to freezing thimgs in prep for camping, a terrific marinara sauce made with fresh tomatoes, maybe?
Love the car rides, music, chatter and lovely stories. If people see you talking to yourself, just tell them you have invisible friends. Ask your friend if Boar meat needs more fat. I have no idea. Wild meat tends to be very lean and needs to be cooked in fat. If you get a food mill you can grind the meat (depending on how much you were gifted)
Sounds crazy, but you can freeze mashed potatoes! They don't change at all. You could make Sheppard's Pie and then freeze it. Brian, I think you're going to need a bigger freezer! You can keep it in your work shed. Recipes can be googled. You, Dan and Nick can have a cooking party! It's always more fun to cook with friends, although you may have more than enough time together during the week.. Make loads, freeze it and Bob's your uncle.
Boar meat -> ragu (Italian pasta sauce --- which is brilliant for batch cooking -- divide into portions before freezing) BTW boar prosciutto is amazingly delish.
I’m looking so much forward to your vlogs due to the relaxed, down to earth presentation. Keep doing them, even if it’s just a short, I will be watching.
you can do batch pasta, if you break your meal into two parts. 1. Make the pasta sauce and freeze it in appropriate serving containers . 2. Bring the frozen sauce to the campground and cook the pasta separately. Combine - bingo! Don't forget to bring and bit of grated cheese. Btw - as sell as stew, you can make brilliant pasta sauces with your boar meat.
Cassoulet would be another good thing for batch cooking. Also things like stuffed peppers, meatballs, meatloaf, lasagna - they all freeze and reheat well. You get yourself a Dutch oven like Nick suggested and you could reheat all those things very well.
A Dutch oven is built for batch cooking. Make a massive boar stew, treat Mad Dan and Gandolf to lunch and freeze the rest for instant meals.
I think Dan is showing how much confidence he has in you Brian … letting you out to get those very important bits & bobs for a very important job…. Well done for completing the task sooo well !!!👏👏👏👏😉😉🤣
I find it rather strange as you take us around the little villages in rural France …. No traffic !!!!!! Very interesting observation … Durban SA🇿🇦
Witty. Keep bringing up your vlog. I am on the happy receiving end. 😊
Oh my gosh, just when I thought it couldn't get more interesting and humorous, Brian, you did it again!
Slow Cooked wild boar stew would be very tasty, i batch cook chilli, spag bowls, beef curry, soup and many more. It's great when you don't feel like cooking so long as you don't forget to take it out of the freezer. 😊
Crock pot beef bourguignoin is the BEST. I use Chuck beef, and cut it into 2 x 2 x 4 (ish) inch hunks. You sear it, then stick it into the crock pot along with the sautéed onion, carrot, bacon mixed with beef broth, tomato paste, sage and the other recipe spices. I add pearl onions. Let it cook all day, then add mushrooms and the red wine during the last hour. It’s good with potatoes or pasta and freezes nicely.
Saute 1 lb of mince. Drain off most of the oil; Add sauce: 1/2 tsp garlic powder, 1/2 tsp ground ginger; 1/2 cup brown sugar; 1/4 cup of soy sauce, 1 tbs sesame oil; 1 tsp of sirracha. Cook until moisture is absorbed. Add 6 cups of shredded napa cabbage, 2 grated carrots, 2 green onions chopped let it all wilt. Voila - 1 large pot meal.
Half a cup of sugar ? That sounds odd
Sugar is optional. The US puts sugar in EVERYTHING!
Bits and pieces….. and stuff. Love it
You do make me chuckle, Brian 😂 don't tell them you had coffee 😂 loved watching your hectic day ❤
I love your VLOGs and look forward to them every day.
You are a crack up, funny. I reacon Dan needs feeding.? Already watched you three lifting those planks. 🤗
Brian you really crack me up,I so enjoy your sense of humour
You can batch cook beef stroganoff(or boar!). Without the noodles. Bag is, freeze it. Cook your noodles at the campsite(which we know you can do), and heat the stroganoff and put over the noodles. You can also do single serve pot pie-with or without crust, and heat those at the campsite as well. Or even at home, throw them in the oven when you get home, get a shower and a cuppa, throw some bread and butter on the table, and you got easy dinner. I buy disposable aluminum pie pans, or you can get single pie plates or casseroles dishes(glass) at the second hand shops.
Chili Con Carne is a winter favourite in our house, i always make a large batch and freeze for another meal. Chicken curry with yams, potatoes and peas.🇨🇦❤️
Brian - A great American batch dish is chili with tinned beans & canned 🌽. Try finding online packets of Williams Chipotle Chili seasoning. Slow roast your boar in your dutch oven & batch-save equal amounts of the cooked meat. Then, combine one tin each of pinto, red, light red, black, 'navy beans, one tin of stewed tomatoes, & one tin 🌽 to ½ to ⅔ kilo of meat to one packet of flavoring. Chop up a med. sweet onion per batch. Mushrooms, garbanzo beans, are good too.
Batch up in liter bags & freeze. Add grape tomatoes to a batch being reheated for serving.
It can be served with cooked rice, corn bread, or over pasta. Bon appetite!
You let me laugh a few times here, thanks!💋
A lot of driving in rural France for stuff. That’s the only negative about living there. Positives nice empty roads, distance from neighbours, lovely views of land, trees, wildlife and pretty villages with amazing architecture
Your humour is uplifting, and we all need to laugh more😂. Love your vlogs.
You make me laugh. You are very good at talking on your videos.❤
I just bought my first cast iron dutch oven and after a weekend of using it, can not believe I've gone this far in life without one. Far better than a crock pot as the meat stays moist and extremely easy to use. As everyone is saying, batch cook your meals and you'll enjoy higher quality meals after working all day.
Hey Bryan. I live alone in Normandy and I like to eat good home cooking. I never cook just a serving for a meal. Like yesterday's pasta with fresh tomatoes made into sauce became today's pasta salad with tuna, onion, olives.chopped fresh tomato a bit of mustard and mayo. Two completely different meals, one hot, one cold. I have visitors so wanted something quick but tasty.
Another great meal is chili con carne. I mean like a 5 quart pot that you can eat with rice or on its own and after a couple of meals put the rest into freezer bags to take out in a pinch.
This works for so many different types of food.
Get that dutch oven out and dusted off for some great meals!
Paul
You are very entertaining but unassuming, Brian. You make me smile😊 Good luck with your cooking. 😊
Hi Dan, Love your Vlogs! One of my family’s favorite simple meals is affectionately called Slop. In a sauce pan or skillet put smoked sausage cut into small slices. After you have browned off pour in a can of green beans, corn and cubed potatoes (juices included) add 1 chopped onion and salt and pepper to taste. It is so good and so easy. Enjoy!
You could put your pasta topping in batches and take the pasta dry
Pulled pork (boar) can be done in batches
When I have big hunks of pork, I make pulled pork Mexican. Carnitas. Slow cooked, and then quickly fried put in a flour tortilla with sliced avocado, lime juice, cilantro, and chopped onion or pico. You. CAn also freeze some of the leftover pork and make enchiladas later or more tacos later. You can find easy recipes for cooking the meat in your choice of pots. Can you find tortillas in France?
Tortillas are everywhere! 😉
Again, so very relaxing. A smile sometimes
Boar meat? Ham cubed into small cubes, sautéed in butter, onions, garlic added to quartered potatoes and green beans. How about vegetable soup of everything from the garden cooked with a nice Chuck roast. Needs bay leaves, cabbage, and lima beans along with green beans, corn, potatoes, and carrots. Add beef bouillon, salt, pepper and garlic. Makes great freezer meals, both recipes.
Aww that pup was so happy that you came back! ❤
Ummmm ASBO Gandalf 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I absolutely love it 😂
Yeah I umm saw the bag of Seimen comment on Dan's Vlog I will be good and not repeat it 😂
Yep that puppy is certainly an expert at working that cuteness now.
Some excellent ideas from people re camping food I can't help sorry I loathe camping (I have traumatic personal reasons for it so please don't tell me I am 'missing out'). I still enjoy watching you do it though just not for me 😂
France is very beautiful....love all the stone buildings.
Always a pleasure to watch 😊
Brian we love these videos of you just doing what you need to do to keep the BOSS happy having to run all over rural France to round up bits and pieces for Dan. Love it gotta get a coffee!
Your videos are so cozy, love them!
I just really enjoy your chat with us.
Love a bit of batch cooking and putting it in the freezer for later.
We do mac and cheese in the slow cooker. 1kg of pasta, 2litres of full fat milk, 7-9tbsp of flour, powdered mustard 2-4tsps, paprika, black pepper, meat of your choice. We add chorizo but bacon works as well. If you use bacon, probably around 10-12 rashers. Chicken doesn't really work. 300g parmasean and 700g of cheddar. This will make absolutely loads but it can be frozen. For one person, I'd say half the portions I've given. Cook on high for 3 hours. You can slice tomatoes on the top.
We have also done a green curry, stew and a mix for fajitas. If you do a bolognaise mix I'd use beef chunks rather than mince.
FYI, pasta tends to get mushy after it’s been frozen. Potatoes do too.
You can cook up a batch of the bolognaise meat sauce and then add to some pasta and the same ingredients but with chilli Liver n onions with mash potatoes We usually add peppers mushrooms and onions as a filler to most of our casseroles.
Brian....buy a wide top flask...when you go camping heat up your Irish Stew put it in the pre heated flask and it should be lovely and warm for you on your camping trip. .... Easy peasy ....... fynesartphotography Dublin
Very nice, funny, and I just improved my English thanks to your : "Skin of my teeth" !👍
Anything you find in your grocery store freezer section you can freeze at home. A good place to look for inspiration as well. You can freeze in mason jars just leave an inch or two head space for expansion of the food when freezing. I like using the wide mouth jars for the easiest removal of chunky foods like potatoes, carrots and beef chunks. Plastic Zip bags have a tendency to break/leak in my experience. Good luck...
Hi Brian. Cast iron frying pans make great frittatas. Basically cook veggies you like such as diced onions, garlic, sliced mushrooms, diced zucchini, red pepper, salt & pepper. Can add a bit of basil pesto. Whip up some eggs, depending on how large a frittata you want, pour over the veggies in the frying pan, sprinkle with shredded cheese, whing it into the oven 400F, cook until a knife placed into the middle comes out clean. Small frittatas (4 eggs) take about 20 minutes. Larger a tad longer. This dish reheats in a low oven very nicely. Love it with crusty bread. Good luck. Keep on keeping on. 😊😊😊
❤
Batch cooking doesn’t just work for stews and curries. Use Dan’s grill and batch grill a variety of meat. Once cooked, let it cool and then freeze. Thaw, heat & eat you just have to prepare a side dish or salad and you’re set. I always grill extra since I’ve got the grill hot I might as well make full use of the cooking surface. Added bonus is the flavor the grill adds to the meat. Another use for the boar is a pulled bbq. Grilled meat and sauce, it’s simple and it freezes well. The grill hack works great for ribs, brisket, hamburgers, chicken, steak, sausages and hot dogs. A real time saver, just take out of the freezer the night before and let it thaw in the fridge and it should be ready to just heat up when you get home.
You can pre make soup and freeze them in frozen package and just heat in a pot. Lentil soup , pumpkin soup , mushroom soup. Broccoli and cheese soup. Yum. 😊 I have recipies from scratch to much to type here. Baked macaroni and cheese make a butter flour and milk melt cheese cook pasta add to cheese. Normally you bake it but you can eat it like that.
Brian i bought myself a Ninja 9 in 1 its great does so much air fryer oven slow cooker pressuer cooker and more fast cooking brillant could be just the tool you need
Future vlog, cooking with Brian? Lol
chicken fahitas is one of our go-tos for camping. Jambalay. Precooked so you just reheat on the fire. Salmon en Papillote is also easy. Don't forget your s'mores!!
I have been loving the foods that you eat….the square donut, the fish meal you had when the fridge was bare. Yum
That compact black pitbull terrier is ADORABLE!
She is half collie at least!
You deserved that coffee just for running to other stores to get the bits of stuff Dan's idea needed.
another ace vid! and with brian wearing his magicians hat made it all go faster! 😁
