From a woman who is going to be 70, I absolutely love how LARGE you are living. Enjoy every single minute of this adventure with Blue. You will one day tell the story of the fun night you made chili in a cup in the back of Poe while in the wilds of Alaska during -55 degree temps. What a memory!
@roamingreckless Maria please consider buying insulated blackout shades for your front and back window for better security and warmth please.🙏🏾 (I have seen some comments that Alaska is "safe" and all this good stuff.... but I'd rather you be cautious than not.)
they make great shades in 9mm size .
I know right !
That is Alaska you will not find people breaking into your car outside of Anchorage, most people do not lock their house or car up there and every person has a firearm on them. Including the little old ladies so you are safe, if someone sees something happening everyone in the area steps up. The only safety she needs to worry about is from Jack Frost he is a Brutal asshole!
Card board works too
Reflectix works too
love how she treats Blue like a prince, so heartwarming.
Yeah he has no coat!
Blue needs non stop belly rubs!!!
So clever taking Blue into Home Depo for his walks in such cold temperatures.
Wishing you both the best going through his treatments. Kisses and hugs to beautiful Blue 😘😘🐾.
-55F!? 😳 Yikes! You’re a brave woman. Blue needs a winter coat even for inside the truck seeing how water freezes while your driving. Sheez. Regarding tomato sauce, tomato paste and diced tomatoes…lol, tomato paste has a more intense flavor than tomato sauce and enhances the recipe, tomato sauce is thicker than the liquid in diced tomatoes so without it the dish might be more bland, and diced tomatoes obviously have nice little chunks of tomatoes. So each brings something good to the dish.
Agree 💯 %
And shoe/sock
I'm amazed they let you out unsupervised.
My dad feels the same
why so mean? what an azzhole
😂😂😂
@@roamingreckless😅😅
Get your tomato paste from the squeeze tube, more economical. Most recipes only need a tablespoon or two.
Cento makes a good one. Comes in a box and is in a tube. Game changer for me! No waste!
i use that one as well ^
as a personal chef it has the best flavor in my opinion/less waste and convenience (compared to every form it’s stored in)
Bear in mind at those temps mechanical breakage occurs without warning, fluids become closer to solids, fuel lines especially diesel freeze. I live in Alberta where this occurs often. Break down in town is not pleasant but outside of town can be deadly.
Oops I love Blue so much he is such a beautiful dog. I wish he will live so much longer and be cured from cancer❤❤❤❤❤
Your dog get's chemo! My boxer dog went through 6 months of it but he is awesome almost 2 years later! Good for you.
Your nervous laugh always gets me.
You need an Amazon wishlist or something so we can send you a cookbook lol. It would help to have a second reference in situations like this.
It’d be awesome if she did a segment where she picked a recipe from a subscriber comment and made it in a video! That’d be fun.
its very funny the contrast TH-cam put me through... first I was watching Korean car camping videos with their luxury set ups and delicious cooking, then I end my night with Ria videos to keep me humble.
Same here 😂😂😂😂😂
I think I was watching Lost in the Pond. I think this channel is really winning the algorithm
I have seen -86F in North Pole Alaska in 89, you are playing with your life at that kind of cold. I know it's doable but is it worth it. Now you really know what Chilled to the bone feels like. On a side note I have many friends and family up there, if you are struggling I can point you in the right direction. You are now in the scariest and coldest part of winter.
I fear one day these videos will suddenly end. I love this girl to the moon and back however there are to many variables that could happen in that degree of cold that I won't even mention.
that's impressive ....i saw minus 68, also in North Pole but in like 1983 ish. Slept in tents on a climb at minus 38....
Now do you think you can repeat the chili again?
@@jimmiller4951 All it takes is 5 minutes of bad luck in those temperatures.
@@scotyount6226 Its all ways colder by Chea lakes if it was -50F in the Pole it would be -55F at the lakes.
“Martha Stewart In Prison” I literally spit my beer hearing that!
Tbh I feel like your being more fkc it and go for it. Which I enjoy!! Stay safe and keep the randomness alive😀
Marias new cookbook,
Cooking the best foods the worst ways on the road in my Defender. 😂😂😂
I’d buy it 💵💶💷💴😊
your love for your dog is awesome.❤
You are genuinely funny. Some TH-camrs try to but you are just so entertaining. I am so addicted😂😂😂😂😂😂 to
Xander Budnick is a good one..he's quite entertaining and genuinely funny guy. Down to earth, too.
This video just kept getting more chaotic and I loved it 😂 you should make this a new segment where you buy ingredients and throw away the recipe lol
You are hilariously wreckless...lmao. Good job on the chili. I kept laughing imagining your father talking to someone at Better Help...." I can't keep up with my idiot daughter!"..."You would not believe what she doing now!"......😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂
Aren't you afraid the truck might break down eliminating heat in temps this cold?
Rad to watch Roaming Reckless on a stormy night here in the north Bay Area. Hope the mighty Blue is progressing for the better
You need a webasto diesel coolant heater plumbed in with Poe's cooling system to keep Poe's engine warm enough to start. You could even run the glycol loop under the rear floor to help with radiant heating and/or as a backup heat source.
I owned a differential shop for 6 years 2 years ago. I now rebuilt transmission and differentials for GM, you got a pinion seal leaking on the front pinion. Keep fluids in it. It will be okay. But get it replaced soon.
Did she understand???
Hey Doc.... I have a G80 that does not seem to want to unlock easily at times,,, It gets stuck!!!! Going Forward, backwards,, circles both ways does not unlock it sometimes... any ideas ????? Does it lock itself as you go down the road,,, both wheels turning faster than 120 rpm or is it a difference of 120 rpm that causes it to lock ???? I thought it was a difference of 120rpm between the wheels but this is doing this on dry road no abuse peel outs or any thing like that.....Thanks !!!!
I guess she did !!! LOL
Oh !!!! Maria, I worry about both of you so much!! Blue looks like he's concerned about you too. Please take care, BE SAFE!!!!
I agree . Blue looks concerned too ❤❤❤sending prayers to both of them
Out of all your cooking escapades I never saw this one coming...browning ground beef in a Jet Boil!? I think even Martha Stewart would have to give you props for your resourcefulness! 🤣 Really enjoying your singing - you are the songbird of your generation! 🐦😜Hugs to Blue! 💙
Praying for Sweet Blue. He's my favorite Good Boy.
Aloha from Hawaii! Came across Your channel by pure accident, and it’s the best accident to have happen to me in awhile! Love your free spirit, commentary,and the love for Poe! ❤❤
I honestly lived in that exact same weather in the Army stationed there and we had run our diesels 24/7 so you are doing that right. I was stationed in Fairbanks for 3 years and did cold weather training in Delta Junction at FT Greely which I think has been renamed but not sure. Be safe
I wish I could spend two hours with you teaching the basics of cookery
In order to make chili cook the ground beef with the onions maybe in a frying pan first. Once its cooked pour it into the large pot. I use diced tomatoes and tomato sauce in mine, along with a can of drained kidney beans. Season it with chili powder. No beef broth at all. I had to subscribe to your channel after watching a few of your videos which came up on my feed. You and Blue are living the life. I wanted to do what you are doing, but I am now age 66 and have chronic back pain so I cannot drive miles per day. Stay warm!
Hi Maria they have two burner portable Ovens that can fit on the counter that you can actually cook with and hook up to the jackery that way you can have more homemade meals all you have to do is make sure that you follow the instructions not only the ingredients sometimes as you get better you'll start to make your own recipe🤫
"I'm like Martha Stewart...in prison..." 😂💀
When Ria puts on the glasses she can pull anything off 😅 like chili in a jet boil 👌
That diesel heater is the business.
I hope and Pray that you Stay Warm in very very very Cold Alaska, my Friend 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
I’m so happy I stubbled upon your channel I literally wait every week for your upload. You inspire me to just start my dream of car/van camping🤗 Praying for you and blue through these tough times but I just wanted to say you’re doing an amazing job Maria❤️
Take it from a Forest Ranger. This is beyond stupid at minus 55 degree. The time to see Alaska is August and September. If Poe were to freeze a piston or damage the crankshaft from extreme cold, you and Blue are history. I thoroughly enjoy your post but this is beyond reason.
Na we’d be aight. I’ve got back up heat source and a satellite phone for emergencies. Contacts in the area.
@@roamingreckless Phones fail. Backup systems/plans fail. Thank goodness the Good Lord does not forget us when we find ourselves in such situations. I apologize for being so blunt. As an old Indian friend always told me, "Do not let the Great Spirit find you in the shadows", whenever I was in serious backcountry or situations.
@@user-wi6ro7ve2n I grew up in this kind of cold climate. Everyone knows of people who froze to death, my neighbor did freeze too. The stress on the dog might be incredible, not the enviornment to be when you need chemo! This kind of cold is very hard on the living being and a vehicle can fail or not be able to start any time. Fail to see the point and rationality of traveling Alaska while sleeping in the car in winter, it proves or achieves nothing.
@@roamingreckless It's called "unconscious incompetence" or "you don't know what or that you don't know"! You are just pushing your luck & you will have no trouble inconveniencing someone else to come & rescue you & possibly put them in harms way too. Very selfish on your part. Wait till you lose your toes/fingers to frost bite. From a RN who has seen trappers & hunters who knew how to deal with cold lose toes & fingers. You are definitely reckless & that is nothing to be proud of!
Haha your deedle deet deet deedle song woke me back up!! Too funny..
That sounded more like Southwest stew!
Yum
I'm screaming at the screen, Noooo! 😮 That was so stressful watching the chili cooking but then again, it's hard to mess up chili. Good on you! Prayers for Blue. He's Sooooo precious!
The car is everything , its so damn impressive.
Stay warm and stay safe!
One of your best videos Maria. The next up grade for Poe should be to insulate Poe and to get AC for the heat of the summer not to far away. You treat Blue so so humanly and God will reward you for taking care of Blue like you do. Stay safe and warm. 👍🙏💙
Someone's likely can answered already, but crushed/diced/peeled/sauce/paste forms of tomatoes is a shortcut to achieving particular textures in a dish. You could also just use one or two whole tomatoes, applying the desired textural transformations.
Its refreshing to see someone learning cooking this way.
Tomato paste is meant to thicken the chili and build fond (the brown bits in the pan - tons of flavor) when you cook the beef and onion together. the tomato sauce probably adds volume to the recipe. The dice is for the actual chunks you eat, it helps add a different texture so its not just all beef.
Great job making a chilli you loved! Now comes the fun part. Start adding stuff you love and make it your own. Good add ins can be peppers, bbq sauce, dark chocolate, or spicy peppers like jalapenos.
Maria, I love love your Aussie Blue!!!!! 💙💙💙💙💙 You guys make a great team!!👍
I pray 🙏🙏🙏 that Blue's days are good and tolerable and energized in light of his chemo
therapy!!
I had a best friend named "Jake", he was an Aussie too. We were just like you guys,we're attached at the hips. We were inseparable except he left me (he's in doggie heaven already)
in 2015 at the age of 16 yrs. I miss him terribly!
Be well you both mostly please be safe!!
Your friend from California "Eddie".🤗🙋♂️
Get shopping cart next time and put Blue in it to ride him over to the store. 😁
Maria, before adding any seasoning to the meat, drain the liquid fat out then add your seasonings to the meat so you aren't draining out the seasonings with the liquid. Great job using the jetboil when there was nothing else was available. Being Italian helped you get the job done I feel and say hello to Blue for me! Love love love Blue and praying for him every day! He is going to beat this 100% Go Blue!!! 🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟💌💌💌
Chili, couple tablespoons of olive oil, add one pound of 92 percent hamburger, add salt and pepper, cook it with one sliced onion. Once cooked add one can dark kidney beans, one can of stewed tomatoes, add 1/4 cup catsup, chili pepper to your taste and liking plus 2 tablespoons of sugar. Done!
Not me stopping what I'm doing to
watch another awesome reckless
video💙🐾🐕👋 You're rocking
those glasses🤓. Blue is a 🌟⭐
LETS GOOOOO MARIA!!!!!!!!!!!!! Sending hugs to Azul and you.
Got to admit it when you took a taste out of that chili I immediately got a craving for it now I can't get it out of my head and must have some soon.
I would get a notebook and start adding recipes as you see them so when you do have technical issues, you have all the instructions handy.
Cotton is a very poor choice of fabric in cold temperature.
I’m proud of u Ria! You made good chile! That diesel heater is a life saver . Blue’s adorable 💙🥶💙
It was awesome seeing you at Home Depot! Thanks for saying hi!
Thanks for the support! 🫶
I was star strucked. lol
@@roamingreckless
i was star strucked! lol ria and blue !!!@@roamingreckless
The fact that you made chili in a jetboil, tells me you have culinary skills!
Girl, you did an amazing job. ❤❤❤❤❤❤
I pray for you and Blue every night.
Girl,Dog,Land Rover, Very Cold……..What could go wrong? Oh, and you don’t cook!!!! I am subscribed!!!😂
You freak me out every time you cook on that wonky jet boil 🫣 Single electric hot plate or gas stove is far more stable, then you’ll be cookin like a pro! Aussie love to you and blue ❤
Just don’t suck in any diesel fumes, at the very least they’ll make you sick! I know, believe me I know! Another great vid from you n Blue! ❤
Mmmm, i hope you have talked to some people from Fairbanks about your trip north. Just seeing the way you dress and the equipment you have....you don’t seem prepared. I lived in Wiseman (close to Coldfoot) for a year and I'm from Alaska - and I'm telling you girl, what you are planning is no joke. There is no cell service up there, very few people, and no 911. By no means do i think you're incapable or that a girl shouldn't do it alone - after all i did it for a year on my own when i was 24 - but i knew what i was doing and i had lived in Fairbanks for several years before i went north. Please reach out to someone and get help prepping for your trip - weather in Alaska is often fatal! I will say one thing that may save your life: if anything happens to you on the Haul road - get a ride from a trucker! There will be nobody else. And if you wait too long you will freeze to death.
As an Alaskan, I agree, this is so dangerous. Driving this road, especially in winter conditions, is serious business. There will be no help available unless a truck driver passes by. Rental cars are not even allowed on this road during the summer months. If you break down and are lucky enough to find someone that is willing to go out there to help tow you back to town - you will be waiting hours (maybe even a days) and the tow bill be in the thousands. Please be safe and don’t push the limits with Mother Nature. It isn’t worth it.
Chemo might make his paws sensitive to the cold . He is the cutest puppy ever 😍 ❤❤❤
I don't understand why free to roam wherever they want youtubers go to such cold places in the winter lol. GL!
Awe I love your dog!!! Keep on keeping on! Stay Warm and Be Safe! Nice you're Italian!
You and blue be safe. . . Blessings to you both. ❤🙏
you should maybe look at wearing something other than cotton. i would recommend wool in those temps.
Solar panels ✅️
Allucab ✅️
Diesel heater ✅️
Camera still falls off dash 😂
Thanks for letting us join you on your journey. It makes my day when I see you have new videos. Stay safe! ❤ Give pupperloo extra kisses for us!
This was the hottest mess ive ever witnessed. Most of us would have just ate a protein bar lol.
Alright, i been talking trash about your lack of actual " camping ", -55 !? The fact you're even outside in that kind of weather is str8 gangster. No more trash talking from me,you earned my respect. I'm from Arizona, anything below 40 is unbearable for me.
To your question about the three tomato bases. Paste thickens, sauce gives volume and diced gives you “lumpiness” as do the beans. Suggest adjusting the powders to your taste and like my sainted grandma, who was the most amazing cook, always said “taste, taste, taste as you go” and “remember that you can always add more but you can’t take it out”. These two grandma approved adages forever has helped me when I cook. ❤ P.S. and after all my great comments you did exactly that! Good job, cook like that all the time and you will be better than MS, jail or no jail.
You summoned our Italian sixth sense on spices, “Measurements are for Quakers” 🇮🇹🤘🏻
you are an inspiration for us all , Maria.. thank you for YOU.. hugs to BLUE, God Bless you in everything you do. MWAH
You are one bad ass woman!!!
And the way blue looks at you, he knows he's being taking care of 100%
I used to have a Sheltie in Wisconsin that couldn’t go outside when it was about -25 with -50 windchill. Glad you have shoes for your Blue. Back then they didn,t have doggie shoes. Be careful out there. Your sucha good doggie mama!
First time here! Ok! I might be hooked already! Not only did Blue get my attention right away! Gorgeous boy! But you are super entertaining! You are living the dream! Super brave girl! ❤️🙏🏻
I've said it before and I'll say it once again...Maria, you are hysterical!
Oh dear God. I can’t with you. Ground beef in jet boil. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Bacon works also. 🥓
Good for you for being so adventurous! You will never regret getting to travel to so many places.
I lived on the North Slope of Alaska and we saw -72 on our thermometer before it broke. Please be careful as extreme cold can be very dangerous if one is not prepared, or if something goes wrong. I know you will be fine. You have a great dog…love him. Looking forward to seeing your next video. Thank you for sharing.😊
In answer to your tomato question as brief as I can answer it: tomato sauce is usually pureed smooth tomatoes, so adds a thicker texture to the chili, some tomato sauces also have other ingredients added like herbs and spices, that can add more flavor when you have less ingredients to play with. Tomato paste is highly concentrated tomato flavor and also slightly thickens the chili. And diced tomatoes add the texture of chunked tomatoes, and some also have herbs and spices added or are fire roasted, further enhancing the depth of flavor. But in answer to your second question, YES, you can use only one in your chili, but it will affect the texture, thickness and depth of flavor. PS: You did fine with meat. Browning any ground beef in a couple Tablespoons of oil or fat first adds more meaty flavor due to the browning (called the Maillard Reaction), but it is perfectly fine to boil any meat in water to cook it. It will just have a slightly different flavor and texture. You did great on your chili!!!
Blue reminds me of my old blue myrl Australian shepherd patches ..he was my best friend and my first dog❤❤
You did well making the chili. My recipe is: Sautee chopped onion & green pepper, add ground beef & brown it. Then add diced tomatoes, tomato sauce, salt, pepper, chili powder and whatever beans you like. I use pinto beans. simmer 45 minutes. I don't use tomato paste or chicken broth. It's great! I'm concerned about carbon monoxide in your car when you let it run longer periods of time. In those severely cold temps, thing act differently. Take care.
Come home to Michigan for Blue! Take care and always love from Dearborn Michigan ❤
Better late than never right? Enjoying my favorite channel with my morning coffee. No better way to motivate for work! 💚🖤
Hi . Stay safe you two.You are a great dog mom.
Let’s go Blue… thinking about you daily 🥰🥰🥰
I applaud the challenging spirit of camping even in the extreme cold.
The snow-covered landscape is like a scene from a fairy tale. Meals and stories enjoyed in a small car help you forget the cold and make communion with nature even more special.
It's a cold winter in Korea right now, but it's not that cold. We also send support from Korea.
i like her laughs she is a awesome youtuber its calming to watch
On nights when it is that cold nobody would think any less of you if you camped in the parking lot of a 24 hour truck stop. If something goes wrong out there on a night that cold it could turn deadly for you both. Please be safe.
You both be safe out there.
I have worked in Siberia in -70 or so. Steel at those temps does weird things. Russian steel will shatter as one of the gears failed in a bulldozer and it just shattered. Just walking to the mess hall was a major effort and I am amazed you could fill your truck without gloves. I got some frostbite from exposed skin at -65. I think those temps are a bit on the warm side as when it hits roughly -70 the snow that forms is a brilliant white because its actually the CO2 freezing out of the air forming dry ice. Like others have pointed out, its one thing to do this because its work and you get paid to, but to do it for "fun" is a bit on the wild side. Think safety at those temps as the slightest screw up and you only have minutes before things can ice up. We also used army tracked vehicles to get around. GAZ71's and APC's were the most common. Glad you are heading south now.
"l've never made chilli before"......your awesome ma'am! And hilarious! Please be safe!
Need a hot plate to simmer it a few hrs to reduce liquid and it becomes thicker. You used what you had. ❤
Man watching the cooking struggles are hilarious Ria. Keep it up though you don't learn if you don't try!
Rhea, you need double glazing in your Land Rover with temperatures like this, stay warm keep smiling at least you’re not camping in Yakutia/yakutsk Russia ,the coldest place on earth! Much love ✌️❤️🇬🇧
Maria, I may be old. But I will defend you, for I am your "Defender." ❤❤❤ Hugs and kisses to Blue!❤
I have just started watching your videos with your dog. It is so sweet how much you care about your dog. Man and womans best friend.❤
Another great video Ria!! Stay safe out there and 🙏🏻🙏🏻 for Bubbies!!
So glad to see you back on! Hope all is well! Love from Dearborn!
Must resist ranting!
Absolutely love your video.
Stay warm.
