Or jerky, chopped slim-jims, etc... any canned meats, spam, chicken, tuna. Canned corned beef, as well as the various gravy mixes, or potatoes, whole or instant, in place of pasta or rice? Thousands of variations! Thanks for kicking up ideas, Blackie!
Blackie , Another Great Video and Outstanding Information on simple cooking, Thanks for sharing . I do like to eat . Yes You Are The Master Woodsman and Buschcrafter . Tim L.
It's amazing what you do with a few simple ingredients to come up with a hot meal so easily. And these are readily available at most any grocery and low cost compared to many other choices. Good show, I gotta try this !
Add some pepper beef jerky while you boil the pasta and use brown gravy powder, and you get a nice full meal. Maybe dried soup greens or foraged plants, too.
I've never been a big fan of pasta sauces. As a kid when Mom made spaghetti I would take butter and McCormick's "Salad Supreme" seasoning and put it on my noodles instead of the sauce. Fifty plus years later it's still my favorite way to eat pasta. My kids and grandkids like it too. That would work perfectly here. Thanks for the idea oh "Great Hat of Knowledge" 🤠..! Glad you're feeling better brother..
Another great video, Blackie. One of the first dishes I learned to cook (albeit without a pre-packaged gravy mix). Now I usually carry some instant mashed potatoes with me. If a dish comes out too liquidy (is that even a word; OK, soupy), a small amount of the mashed potatoes will thicken it up. You can also use a slurry of arrowroot. )I don't like a flour slurry.) Also, by draining any excess liquid into a cup, you have some starchy water in case the mixture is too thick. Thanks.
Great video. I personally make homemade gravy packets with just cornstarch, flour, and spices. You don't need much and it cuts the carbs and cost down to cents. I have tested a no carb gravy mix and it tasted ok but nothing is better than a simple cornstarch gravy.
Here's hoping this is a new video and the sickness is behind you.... you sound great! This was a nice simple dish with a lot of opportunities for sprucing up.
I always look forward to your next Simple Cooking video! Noodles are such a great camp food. They are light weight, survive rough handling and are so versatile. On the shelf, there are lots of different gravy mixes to complete a filling camp meal. Thanks, Blackie!
Blackie, a country ham steak keeps well when in the woods. I can see these noodles and white pepper gravy topped with pieces of that country ham warmed up. The boiled noodles offer a quick and simple option when compared to making biscuits on the trail. I like meal options. This idea certainly fits that bill. I always have some Ramen noodles, beef jerky and some SPAM in my rucksack. Maybe now I add some noodles and some minute rice. Thanks for putting these ideas out there for our consideration. Looking forward to the next one! - Tennessee Smoky
Great idea! Almost similar to a cookbook that my daughter gave me called "oodles of noodles" which involves Ramen noodles, same basic idea. 1 3-1/2 oz packet of noodles, water, and mix in ingredients. Trust me, when you're on a budget and the food pantry hands you a couple of cases of noodles, you learn to be creative real quick!
Great idea, I will have to try that. Blackie I recommend a channel called Kevin Outdoors, he is a master of making dehydrated food. I have made his dehydrated lasagna many times, it is excellent.
Blackie do some Hoover Stew. Made some the other night using canned chicken meat instead of hot dogs. It was delicious! I used canned diced tomatoes instead of canned whole tomatoes.
Well heck I got all those ingredients on hand and guess what will be for supper .. with some left over pork chops .. ..I love the “ don’t be cheap on the stirring “
every time I see some one cooking pasta over the camp fire I can't help but remember the spaghetti "Logs" at scout camp. Spaghetti was cooked on a sheep herders stove. Water never quite came to the boil Spaghetti was added to the pot at the first sign of bubbles ... The guys never really understood that they needed a rip roaring fire in the stove to boil the water and cook the noodles... It was a right of passage kinda thing
Folks laughed at me fer doing Hamburger Helper out on the trail. One pot, slight adjustments made fer circumstances, and vioila good eats or atleast better than those adding boiling water to overpriced dehydrated meals. The point being is you don't have to be limited or constrained to what to eat. Having said that, this vid goes along way to showing just that. Use what you have. Think outside the box. Better yet, go back and find out how our ancestors did it. They were cooking long before stoves were ever invented. Way before just add boiling water. Learn, actually, how to cook. Each method. Cos there are several if not a dozen to learn.
@@BLACKIETHOMAS Yes! That's the whole point of eatin good out in the woods :) I'm not talking "survival" situation here, but with a lil advance prep, some adaptations made, you can enjoy a home cooked meal over a campfire far cheaper than buying those overpriced "camp meals" Sometimes I'll bring along the cast iron skillet. Yes heavy, but danged well worth it. I can cook up anything in it.
thanks for watching
Great idea! Can’t wait to try this out. I never would’ve thought of sausage gravy. Sounds awesome!
Not a Southerner. Yeah, give it a rip.
Man that looks good. Making me hungry.
I will have to add this to my little camp cook book thanks for sharing
This old dog did learn a new trick and I like it. Thanks
Genius man the simple thing like that is what I never think of till someone show me 👍🏼🥓
Blackie this is a great idea ! You sharing your experience and knowledge to us is awesome! Thanks for sharing!
My pleasure!
Love these camp cooking ideas. Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us.
glad to help
I love biscuits and gravy. Hadn't tried it on noodles. Any left over meat you might have would be a cheap and easy meal Sounds great!
I never thought of using gravy! I often use a can of cream of chicken soup or cream of mushroom. Thanks for the idea
You are so welcome!
Blackie , good video and tips , thanks for sharing ,God bless !
Awesome! I bet that would be good with some roast squirrel meat and a small can of peas with mushrooms.
Or jerky, chopped slim-jims, etc... any canned meats, spam, chicken, tuna. Canned corned beef, as well as the various gravy mixes, or potatoes, whole or instant, in place of pasta or rice? Thousands of variations! Thanks for kicking up ideas, Blackie!
I recognise those items. They are in my cubard.👍

Dad used cornstarch instead of flour ..i like it better with cornstarch
Egg noodles and brown gravy is real good. Would pair really nice with a tin of canned ground beef and maybe some boiled dried peas and stuff
Sounds great!
thank you sir this was a yummy treat and i will have to make it for supper next week
Have fun!
Blackie man that looks great i love pasta meals thanks glad you are feeling better
Thanks so much

Hi Blackie,

Greetings from Germany.
All the Best.
Tommy
Thanks again!
Awesome Sir! Thank You!
Very welcome!
Love your channel, Blackie!
I appreciate that!

Excellent! Thankee!
You bet!
Add some rabbit and mushrooms and you have Hassenpheffer.
🙂 i have a few pkts of that gravy mix & was wondering what 2 do with it >> now i know,, thank's Blackie 👍
No problem 👍
Thanks Blackie - headed to Grocery Advantage right now - hope I can find a little dry wood for a fire !
Good luck!
Blackie do some Hoover Stew.

Leftover cheese added also?
If you are going to let it sit 5 minutes, eggs work as the protein source, since they will cook in that time.

Water never quite came to the boil Spaghetti was added to the pot at the first sign of bubbles ...

yep we learned the hard way
@@BLACKIETHOMAS my dad had a saying that went" If you're going to be stupid, you gotta get tough"
Fresh squirrel roasted add to it.
Add a few precooked sausages or even ground meat and you are good to go. Thanks!
Sounds great!
Sometimes I use bacon bits they're just as good sometimes I take leftover ground hamburger and put in it we take stuff from home and reuse it
great idea
@@BLACKIETHOMAS is a sheep not better than a trucker's knot as far as Ridgeline just trying to figure out which one I should use
You sound a ton better
i am making head way
Oh man! Pepper that up real good and lay your ears back!
Add chicken u got chicken and dumplings 🧐
Leftover bacon is that anything like anything a honest politician?
Poor mans dumplings
Not sure how I feel about this lol
