Nothing wrong with taking your skills on the road w ya. Good idea really. lunch looked pretty good! Enjoy the Texas Pete sauce also. Good stuff! Best to ya Chris!
Fine road-side dining. I was waiting for you to find a couple of good trees, string up your hammock and take a little afternoon nap at the Rest Stop, that would have been epic! If you like Mac n Cheese, try adding a couple of cheese slices to your Ramen sometime, I use Velveeta myself.
Hard to beat your own cooking in my opinion!! That is the beauty if making your own... You can make whatever you want or have time for... Excellent adventure!!
Now .. that .. is what I like 👍. A fellow 'In-laybyes-self-caterer' 😊. My Camping Gaz Bluet 206 Gas Cooker (45 years old and still going strong) and Canteen Cup / Dixies have done sterling work on road trips. The food just seems to taste better. Thanks for sharing .. take care ..
Sir you made me subscribe. This is very practical way to cook in my car "Or I should say beside" Just a table, a couple of cook ware, and were done! Thanks
This is the thing Chris, it doesn’t matter where you pick to cook up some grub, you seem to make it look natural wherever. Here, the restaurants are not open inside yet. This beast of a virus is definitely something to be reckoned with. I think the world has a long way to go yet to let our guard down. Stay safe my friend. Thanks for sharing. Tony.
Ha Ha Ha!!!! The storm drain was an added bonus.... I usually try to find a place at the end of the lot so I can open my door and passerby’s can’t see what I’m doing 😉
I've actually been afraid of eating out in a while to be honest. Even before the COVID-19. I need to get one of those tine that you have but can't find one anywhere. I've been looking... You've inspired me getting a backpack, fire starters, and all kinds of things needed to cook in the woods - even some survival items. I keep the backpack in my truck and have had to use it 6 different times to be honest. Each time I was thankful I've watched your videos and picked things up here and there. Another great video, brother. I hope you had a wonderful Father's Day, brother.
Best to be prepared! I keep things in my car and my truck. Sometimes it may seem a little dumb but I use that stuff everyday for something! What was the thing you are looking for?
@@CarolinaChrisOutdoors Nah, It ain't dumb, brother. I would never have known how useful they are until I needed them. Again, because of you I was prepared. I thank you for that. I'm still getting stuff as I can. The latest item was a solar power panel to charge phones. Be honest I've needed it twice. It's a small one but worked very well. The item I've been looking for is the little cooking pot you have with the lid on it. I think there are other thinks that go with it but I haven't been able to find one like it.
@@CrosbysCorner you dont need a canteen cup to cook. They are actually kind of a pain to cook in cuz of their weird shape. Get yourself a Stanley pot and Ozark trails cup. You can pick both up at Walmart for around $20. Another option is check you local thrift stores for small pot with a cover. You can usually find something for a few bucks. Modify or take off the handle. Drill a couple holes and and make bail.
My pot is a military “Canteen Cup”..... they do not come with lids. My lid is a “Rothco” aftermarket lid that I modified to fit on my cup. You can buy the Rothco cup and lid at any Army store, or online. I have a lot of different cooking pots, but I like the canteen cup best because of the history of it.
I love watching your car cooking videos as they are always interesting. I have not had take - out since the shutdown. The take - outs are open here now at 50% capacity eat in or drive through. The family has had take - out several times but I have not and have no interest yet. Those noodles are an excellent base or starting point for a nice inexpensive meal. The addition of some meat and vegetables and Texas Pete of course takes it ups a few notches........Take care, Mike.
I haven’t eaten any take out food, except for a piece of pizza about three weeks ago..... of course I never really ever was a restaurant kind of guy, except Mexican..... I do enjoy our Mexican restaurant because they serve Dos Equis Amber on draft 🍺🍺🍺👍🏻
Nice cookout Chris I’ve been thinking of grilling up a Steak somewhere using my FireBox 🔥Stove. I’ve made coffee in a parking lot before 😂 you can definitely get some strange looks. My wife & I don’t travel much, but a few years back we decided to just make something to eat rather then hit a restaurant. It’s a lot of fun & now we plan for it weather permitting.
I’m no stranger to cooking steaks in hotel parking lots! It’s fun, cheaper and good practice.... plus, I don’t have to wait on a server to bring my beer 😉
Good looking lunch. You would have to be careful you did not take a nap at the wheel after that belly full. Thank you for sharing your meal with us, Chris. Stay safe
see these are the videos i dig . yu cooking along side the road . nothing special just a throw together meal . talking to us about what ever . i like these videos much better then the ones where you dont say anything . great video chris 10 out of 10 stars brother .
A meal like that and I would chunk a sandwich to the side. You always come up with the most intriguing canteen cup meals. I can not watch your canteen cup videos late at night, or I’ll be in the kitchen trying them out. Good one Chris!🍜🍜🍜
Love these videos. The first one i saw was you cooking in your truck. It got me to sudscribe.....lol. then the meal in the hotel room.....hooked. keep them coming.🙂
Thanks for watching and commenting Roger..... hard to beat an old original canteen cup. I never served, and I got this cup years ago at an Army store, but every time I use it I think about who may have used it, and what may have been cooked in it before. My mess kit is dated 1942, so when I use that, I REALLY wonder about it’s history. I think I’ll use my mess kit in the next car cook 😉
Now you got me hungry! I do the same with Ramen; I usually add beef jerky, canned chicken or cooked sausage. I eat that a lot during the hunting season when I'm at my camp alone and don't want to cook a big meal just for me. Ramen with jerky, chicken, or sausage is a great tasty meal. It beats most fast food, waiting in lines and just not knowing what's in the food you buy.
That meal is a lot better for you than fast food as well. I got to start trying that at work I've thought about bringing a portable bbq and making a good meal I get tired of sandwiches. In the summer we are patching and some times we have an hour to a hour and a half wait till the truck gets back lots of time to grill something up.
Nice spending a lunch time with you via TH-cam 😎. I agree fixing your own lunch instead of the drive thru is the best way to go. I am ALWAYS amazed at the lines at the Chic Fil A. An hour's wait... Is it good? Yes, but it's still just "fast food" 🐔. I don't get it. Maybe the car exhaust fumes make it even better 🤔🤣😂😆
My family would wait for an hour to get one of those chicken sandwiches, but not me. When they go, I tell them not to get me anything. When they come home, I can have a whole chicken cooked, with sides! No joke!!! 🤣😆🤣
that was a fine meal Chris, that's a great way to enjoy noodles. to be honest i don't like restaurants i try to avoid them so much as possible. have a great week and take care
No doubt..... the lines go all the way out to the street at the places I drive by. I can cook and eat, and video it faster than waiting in the drive through lines!
Right on Chris! Way to bulk it up. "I'm scared to go to a restaurant." cracked me up, but I don't blame you. We still can't fully assess the situation, because we still don't know what the hell is really going on! lmao...Go easy brah!
Eating good in the neighborhood or rest stop. You got more junk in your door trays than I do and my wife is always yelling at me for it. Stay safe brother.
That's better than survival drive through food anyhow. LOL... There is a couple of good local country cooking spots near that rest stop. If you hop off on #9 and head in the direction of Chester state park right at the highway is the Front Porch. It is next to the Golden M that shall not be named. About a block down is the Country Omelet. The Country Omelet has a lunch buffet. The buffet is in the kitchen you just tell the server what you want. If you enjoy getting out of the chain places they are worth trying out. I stop in there coming back from range trips at Leeds in Chester SC.
Howdy Chris- you’re probably better off cooking your own food cause you know who has had their hands on it lol. Most drive throughs ain’t for me. That meal did look good. God bless you
Even after the state reopened it took a couple weeks for restaurants to open but when they did I was one of the first to dine it, 2 - 3 time s a week now. I don't worry about. Chick fil a is always backed up, even before corona. Looked good and stay safe.
Sometimes I worry, and sometimes I don’t...... I don’t know what to think. I know we don’t know the truth, but I can’t figure out which side is hiding the facts! 🤔
I'll be damned, hit the southbound stop many times on the way to this or that. Never done it coming back. Looks a spot better 2:02 than fast food. No doubt. I was thinking same thing, can do that faster than getting through a drive-thru. Be well and be safe Chris! cya next time.
Ha! I guess when you’re that close to home, stopping at that rest area would only be for a bathroom emergency break.... which was the original reason I stopped there! 🤣😆🤣😆🤣😆🤣
Yesterday I made sausage/cheese/smooshed pinto bean/Texas Pete dip for my potato chips. Today, while looting the grocery's "garbage" I was taking out, here, in the box with the day old sandwiches was a container: Texas Pete Sausage & Cheese Dip! "No way!" I exclaimed. It's been very difficult to find chicken livers & beef kidneys for Scarf the last 3 months, as in, impossible. I bought the last pre-packaged frozen beef liver 3 weeks ago. Been to Costco, Aldi's, Lowe's foods, and of course my Food Lion. So I went to the Carneceria yesterday, fresh, mooshy beef livers. Mexican "butcher" and I talked about no pollo livers and shook our heads together like old wise men =) Day 22 no beer. I'm much better now. Tomorrow I get to "harvest" my Plantain oil I made 20 days ago. funny that I'm nervous it won't work, even though every other batch I made worked. Be well!
I noticed at my F. L. grocery store the abundance of hamburger meat and chicken pieces, but no hearts/gizzards or livers. I’m guessing what they have is imported and the importers are keeping the chicken guts for the higher paying Asian market. I remember you stopped drinking beer, for your procedure but I don’t recall why you’ve continued to deny yourself. Is it health, or philosophical reasons? Just curious..... that’s great you stopped.... have you lost any weight?
@@CarolinaChrisOutdoors hmm, maybe that's why on the raw food forums everyone is telling me to go to Asian grocery. Yes, health & philosophy. WOW, just weighed myself, 16#'s in 23 days! No wonder I've got an appetite again =) In the first 5 days I lost an INCH of Bloat. The philosophy part is, with church & church functions mostly canceled, I have to be around family that much more which was fine for April & May. Health reason's because I was up to 1.64 gallons a day or more. Of 8%. I was happy, but getting melodramatic & snarky about world, national, & state events. Thank you kindly for inquiring. The comment stemmed from you having sausage, cheese, & Texas Pete in your mix.
Brother Chris I got a bone to pick with you... mano e mano ... Do you normally drain the water then add the seasonings or just every now-and-then? I've been adding the seasonings with the water to get the noodles to capture the flavor while boiling then if I need some of the broth poured out, which is rare...or is it better to pout the liquid mostly then add the packet...with some or little moisture to keep all the flavor?...I just don't know...lol. You got the knock out punch of my brain trying to figure this out...flavor full strength or watered down...lol.
I have never added my seasoning before draining most of the liquid out. At home, I’ll add a bit of butter, or olive oil with the seasoning. Most of the time I only use half of the pack. I see most people adding the pack to their water, but I just never have done that... try it!!!! You’ll be happy with the flavor!!!! (Don’t forget the hot sauce 😉)
i jus love this video, i do this exact same thing on a regular basis myself, btw, if i were there and you were willing to share with me, id sure help you eat it! and doing this some how gives you an amazing and empowering feeling too. i dont know why or how, but it does!
Depends on how much time I have.... I have thrown all my stuff in the trunk and washed it all when I got home, but most of the time I wash it out before I leave my spot. Are you thinking about heading South this weekend at all?

You are a good man! When mama's happy, everybody's happy!!!
The things we do for our wife 👍
@@sosteve9113 Yep! I even gave mine a settlement in-lieu of alimony, signed a car over to her, and paid a year's rent. I'm just a nice guy though.🤣😃🤣

Perfect meal. I would much rather eat that than any fast food.
amen to that, how ya been Chris?

Thanks Tony.... I think you’re right.... best to stay prepared with SPAM and a propane stove..... and grits...... and hot sauce! 😉
Most people look for parking by the entrance, you look for the storm drain. Very nice addition of veggies to the Ramon noodles. Great video! Be safe!!

I was wondering if you were mended up yet..... hope you’re feeling better!!!!
Looks really good man. 😁🇺🇸
Thank you!!!! I appreciate that a lot!!! 🇺🇸👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Nice Ramen on the Road looking good brother
It was the best I ever had.... I think the little bit of feta cheese in my salsa really made all the difference!
Chris you make everything look so tasty
Great stuff!
That meal is a lot better for you than fast food as well. I got to start trying that at work I've thought about bringing a portable bbq and making a good meal I get tired of sandwiches. In the summer we are patching and some times we have an hour to a hour and a half wait till the truck gets back lots of time to grill something up.
Well I slept under my truck at a rest stop once... but never cooked anything at one lol. Thumb's up!

Fine dining Chris by anyones standards. I am liking the look of Texas Pete. Don't forget the camera :)
Chris I am thinking I want to do the same at work in the parking lot. BTW I love your wooden spoon.
Thanks! I made that spoon out of a piece of Jack Daniels whisky barrel 👍🏻
Nicely done Chris. I'd try it.
I made an espresso at lunch today. Your meal looked better.
I saw your coffee video..... I’m going to check those things out.
Hahah, I was like wait homey, you're leaving your camera!
Much rather have Ramen in my car at the rest area than a fast food joint any day! You're right....no lines! ✌🍲
I hate lines..... especially the kind that make my car overheat! 🤣😆🤣
I believe you are getting pretty good at roadside cooking. I had ramen for lunch today myself. Never a doubt, you wouldn't leave your camera. 👍
Hard to beat ramen noodles.... easy and cheap!
Nice!
Thanks for the video brother
Thank you Mark!
Yup the rest stop around here is locked up too. Good thing your wood side chef
Gotta be prepared... now I gotta worry about someone trying to steal my food while I’m cooking.... I’m prepared for that too... 😉
That's the way Chris DIY mate. Faster on the freeway - better food it looks to. Have a good one. Mark
So true...... I’m glad I have the gear and know how to get by - 😉
@@CarolinaChrisOutdoors Yeah many haven't a clue.
Nice idea. Might do the same than in resto.
Nice lunch Chris!! I am with ya on the lines they are long.
Restaurant drive through lines are way Tooooooooo long for me to wait. 😉
that was a fine meal Chris, that's a great way to enjoy noodles. to be honest i don't like restaurants i try to avoid them so much as possible. have a great week and take care
Me too Wallace..... they cost too much, and the beer is warm 😉
😋great lunch ,probably faster then going to the fastfood restaurant these days
No doubt..... the lines go all the way out to the street at the places I drive by. I can cook and eat, and video it faster than waiting in the drive through lines!
Right on Chris! Way to bulk it up. "I'm scared to go to a restaurant." cracked me up, but I don't blame you. We still can't fully assess the situation, because we still don't know what the hell is really going on! lmao...Go easy brah!
That’s for sure!!!!!! Strange times, indeed. Good thing social distancing and doing stuff by myself is “normal” for me 😉

Eating good in the neighborhood or rest stop. You got more junk in your door trays than I do and my wife is always yelling at me for it. Stay safe brother.
Roadside lunch at its it's finest 😁
Lunch break at the rest stop. You trying to start a new trend Chris?😂 You're right though... The drive-thru's can be ridiculous for sure.
Ah yeah man that b looks great!
That’s my favorite kind of eating out 😊

Ha! I’ll be cooking in my Canteen Cup this weekend 😉
I bought three big ol ribeye steaks this evening and one of them is yours. Gonna bring some morels too😉
Another great roadside lunch. So many things to do with ramen.
Yep..... I heard about a guy that made some kind of burrito/taco thing with ramen! I made squirrel meat ramen before.... it was good!

Yesterday I made sausage/cheese/smooshed pinto bean/Texas Pete dip for my potato chips. Today, while looting the grocery's "garbage" I was taking out, here, in the box with the day old sandwiches was a container: Texas Pete Sausage & Cheese Dip! "No way!" I exclaimed.
It's been very difficult to find chicken livers & beef kidneys for Scarf the last 3 months, as in, impossible. I bought the last pre-packaged frozen beef liver 3 weeks ago. Been to Costco, Aldi's, Lowe's foods, and of course my Food Lion. So I went to the Carneceria yesterday, fresh, mooshy beef livers. Mexican "butcher" and I talked about no pollo livers and shook our heads together like old wise men =)
Day 22 no beer. I'm much better now. Tomorrow I get to "harvest" my Plantain oil I made 20 days ago. funny that I'm nervous it won't work, even though every other batch I made worked.
Be well!
I noticed at my F. L. grocery store the abundance of hamburger meat and chicken pieces, but no hearts/gizzards or livers. I’m guessing what they have is imported and the importers are keeping the chicken guts for the higher paying Asian market. I remember you stopped drinking beer, for your procedure but I don’t recall why you’ve continued to deny yourself. Is it health, or philosophical reasons? Just curious..... that’s great you stopped.... have you lost any weight?
@@CarolinaChrisOutdoors hmm, maybe that's why on the raw food forums everyone is telling me to go to Asian grocery.
Yes, health & philosophy. WOW, just weighed myself, 16#'s in 23 days! No wonder I've got an appetite again =)
In the first 5 days I lost an INCH of Bloat. The philosophy part is, with church & church functions mostly canceled, I have to be around family that much more which was fine for April & May. Health reason's because I was up to 1.64 gallons a day or more. Of 8%. I was happy, but getting melodramatic & snarky about world, national, & state events.
Thank you kindly for inquiring.
The comment stemmed from you having sausage, cheese, & Texas Pete in your mix.
Simple solution for travel
Where did you get the table? Perfect for roadside cooking. Your lunch looked delicious.
Thanks! I bought that table at a place called “Sportsman’s Warehouse” for $23.00
Safe travels. Looks better than McDonald's
(Tasting better too😉)
Very cool
Thanks.... appreciate ya watching and leaving a comment! 👍🏻
aint nothing wrong with that, it works and the food is good. you would think more people would do this
Who needs fast food with a drive-through when you can have fresh cooked
I agree Buzz!!! 😉
Brother Chris I got a bone to pick with you... mano e mano ... Do you normally drain the water then add the seasonings or just every now-and-then? I've been adding the seasonings with the water to get the noodles to capture the flavor while boiling then if I need some of the broth poured out, which is rare...or is it better to pout the liquid mostly then add the packet...with some or little moisture to keep all the flavor?...I just don't know...lol. You got the knock out punch of my brain trying to figure this out...flavor full strength or watered down...lol.
I have never added my seasoning before draining most of the liquid out. At home, I’ll add a bit of butter, or olive oil with the seasoning. Most of the time I only use half of the pack. I see most people adding the pack to their water, but I just never have done that... try it!!!! You’ll be happy with the flavor!!!! (Don’t forget the hot sauce 😉)
@@CarolinaChrisOutdoors Wee Wee just told me that she does it like you do...so now I gotta try it...
looks delicious, so much better than the virus
i jus love this video, i do this exact same thing on a regular basis myself, btw, if i were there and you were willing to share with me, id sure help you eat it! and doing this some how gives you an amazing and empowering feeling too. i dont know why or how, but it does!
I like doing it because it saves me some money and it gives me a good relaxing break during my work day. Thanks for commenting!!!
,,, heck yeah ,,,a man got eat,, do you kind wash them dishes out in side that rest area B,,R,,? just wondering,,,
Depends on how much time I have.... I have thrown all my stuff in the trunk and washed it all when I got home, but most of the time I wash it out before I leave my spot. Are you thinking about heading South this weekend at all?
Did you eat the whole thing? That looked like it would have been really filling.......but good 😆
Yep..... I didn’t eat much dinner that day though.... 😉
Always nicer to make for yourself
Yes Sir! You got that right!!!!👍🏻
I was just fixing to tell ya that you left ur camera 🤣🤣🤣
I try to never say sausage and rest area in the same sentence.
Another “pro” tip.... thanks for the reminder!
cool
Thanks Phyllis!
Way to go.
Thanks Michael!
