I use you videos for anxiety releif. If you were ever having a rough day, try to remember the hundreds of thousands of times you’ve made someone else’s better!
This is my favourite kind of cooking. Simple, no frills, and just proves that you don't need a huge kitchen crammed with top of the line appliances to make quality food. :D.
Simon, one of the reasons I so like your channel is how you show without fuss and 'preaching' how to carefully and safely cool down and clean up the remains of your camp/cook fires. It just follows as a natural part of the process of looking after the lovely places you visit.
Had a Fish n Chip shop many years ago. Total respect for your camp catering version, absolutely first class. Nowadays instead of Adnams bitter (which I do like) I think I will try the batter with their Ghost Ship. Them Citria Hops might impart a nice lemony flavour. Holy moly man youve really got my taste buds going. Steve
Eating good in the woods. I live in the US but had a chance to work at the Mini plant in Oxford helping them with some logistic issues for 6 weeks about 7 years ago. Enjoyed fish and chips on the Thames several times.
Scottish but live in the US and this video brought back so many great memories camping up the north of Scotland and stopping later for the best fish n chips….thank you! ♥️⛺️🍃
Simon that fish and chip meal looks amazing and so darn delicious. It also has a great presentation with the mushy peas and tartar sauce. Thank you for sharing Simon!
what an inspiration! I bet my husband would LOVE that for supper one night this week. Needed this wonderful content this afternoon to save me from the mind numbing boredom of keyboarding and answering pointless questions all day long! Thank you for sharing. Content was superb, as always! Take care and be safe out there! 🧡🧡👍👍😊😊🙏🙏
You were so happy, I felt happy watching. Viewed an oldie yesterday: Simon working his way through a 24-hour ration pack. We were all laughing out loud, here down under. You are great company Simon, and a super-talented bushcraftsman. Oh, and thanks for the recipes.
Greetings, Simon, from Kentucky! It's always a pleasure to enjoy a moment with you via video - Here, I finally got back to the woods to visit our Spring ephemirals - glad you won't have to do any more snow camps for a while - those looked brutal! Cheers!
Eating sumptuously in a primitive/camping situation? Hard to believe until seen. I admire your leave-no-trace-camping ethic. Another great video. Thanks again.
I can always tell how good Simons cooking is when he takes his first mouthful of gives a verdict with a "mmmmmm".....the longer the "mmmmm" the better the taste is, and that certainly looked delicious, and my mouth was watering for sure. Great episode as usual.
Ah, Simon - the pinky sticking out just shows your classy side! LOL can you imagine mate some fox coming along through the woods and wondering about smelling fish that far from the sea? thanks for sharing
Well Done! Video certainly lived up to my expectations after reading Description. Hadn't heard of mushy peas and was surprised to learn they come that way from a can. 😄 Nice job on clean-up too 👍
You do realise that you have raised the bar exponentially with this one Simon....my Mrs will never again settle for a tin of beans n sausage or a pot noodle when camping....😢❤😂😂
Hey Simon, from our family to yours... we are sorry to hear about Maggie. the hard part of having dogs and its never easy so we are with you brother! Also caught some of your videos with Kent and the one or one you took your boy along... that was a nice little adventure with Thomas and Maggie... good for you man! Cheers, State Side Salty!
That looks great! But one of the best things about coastal path walks is finding a good pub serving fish n chips at the end of the day. Feels like luxury!
Thank you Simon for the effort you take in making these videos. Just making fish and chips sounds simple and mundane in a kitchen. Taking it into the field just brings cooking posibilities into another dimension. It simply brings joy to the watcher! I could even smell the fish cooking. Please keep up your good and uplifting excursions!
Hi Simon 😊, wow fish and chips twice, whith extras, you certainly excelled yourself in this one, and no pesky seagulls trying to steal it lol. Thanks for another great video mate, stay safe, best wishe's to you and your's, Stuart UK.
I just watched another channel and that guy visiting London paid £22.50 for virtually this same meal, can you believe. Fish £10.50. Chips £3. Curry sauce £1.90. Peas £1.90. Free tartar sauce. £2.50 service charge. £2.70 drink. VAT etc. It was robbery. I was surprised you did the whole process. Great vid, Simon.👍
I LOVE your channel Simon…after all is said and done you show the camp site clean up!!! WELL DONE MATE👍🙏❤️🙏 PS STAY SAFE AND SAY HI TO THE FAMILY AND SWEET MAGGIE!🙏❤️
I'm having fish and chips with a nice cold beer and watching Simon video, your camp fish and chips looks mouth watering I will try the recipe you made for your fish, cheers Simon for amazing video 😋👍
You never fail to amaze me Simon, that looked absolutely delicious. I’m a chef and spent most of my life in the army so I know how difficult it can be to do that style of cooking. Well done you 🎉🎉🎉
Wow, did those fish and chips look good .. and I impressed that you lugged a Dutch iron stove, and a liter of cooking oil into the woods. And I’m sorry I didn’t eat more fish and chips when I was in Scotland last year… fish and chips are the UK’s contribution to great world cuisine
Feierabend..and Simon has a video for us... perfect combination 🎉 I was waiting for the vinegar 😂 I never thought it was used to make the salt stick better, but here you go - thanks 👍🏻
" No beer was wasted in the making of this video". Ok, I made that up but it feels true. Oh, no teenager to foist the cast iron off on. Plus the weight of the oil and beers! Super man!!!!!!!!!
Love all your videos, the camera work, lighting, filming, editing, sound are so solid. Its amazing to me that you pull this off so consistently. A joy to watch. All that said, this one is a reminder to me about why I don't deep fry at home, much less while camping. So much oil, so much mess--I'll leave it to the professionals, thank you! But, you be you, Simon!
Yep, good job Simon. Always have watched your content. What could be better than fish and chips in the woods, all washed down with a local brew. Keep 'em coming.
Simon - your videos should be prescribed on the NHS to help folks deal with anxiety - they’re so calming!
I use you videos for anxiety releif. If you were ever having a rough day, try to remember the hundreds of thousands of times you’ve made someone else’s better!
Batter surely!😄
Imagine you're on a nice walk in the Norfolk countryside and then all of a sudden, the smell of fish and chips wafts up your nose 😂
Got to feel sorry for the wildlife in these localities. All those aromas but zero chance of enjoying the food!
I'd worry I was having a aneurysm 🤣🤣🤣
Ah Bliss😋
I bet it tasted ten times better with wood smoked flavours.
@@tarmacdemon doesn’t everything? :)
This is my favourite kind of cooking. Simple, no frills, and just proves that you don't need a huge kitchen crammed with top of the line appliances to make quality food. :D.
Thank you Simon for having us for lunch, although it was a bit one-sided on the portions. Thank you, you always tend to gladden my day.
Simon's back! 4.2K views within 3 hours of posting this video. Simon eats fish. Simon drinks beer. Simon walks about. And we all watch!
Living the dream 😊 makes me homesick, a welsh man living in Sweden.

Bloody hell, a portion fit for a King Simon, by God that liked good. Your a joy to watch mate.
Pretty damn amazing 😮, I’d never even consider Fish and Chips out in the field, but here you are, showing us all up 😊
I don't think you could do it if you were camping out, imagine the weight of that cast iron pot and the cooking oil, plus your camping equipment.
Hi Simon, I'm so sorry to hear about Maggie. All my best to yourself and your family. Stay strong my friend. 👊

Freshly cooked fish and chips out in the open,the chips looked perfect,absolutely spot on,cheers Simon.👍👌💥
Fish chips mushy peas cooked on an open wood fire. Food of the gods 😋👍
Thanks Simon! I needed a video like that after a stressful week at work. Even more so since I just realised it's only Wednesday!
what an inspiration! I bet my husband would LOVE that for supper one night this week. Needed this wonderful content this afternoon to save me from the mind numbing boredom of keyboarding and answering pointless questions all day long! Thank you for sharing.

When an Englishman is cooking Fish and Chips in the woods on fire! You know its good!!
Well I'd not thought of doing this in my dutch oven, but now I've seen this I'm definitely trying it! Nice one.
You were so happy, I felt happy watching. Viewed an oldie yesterday: Simon working his way through a 24-hour ration pack. We were all laughing out loud, here down under. You are great company Simon, and a super-talented bushcraftsman. Oh, and thanks for the recipes.
two words you mentioned .." Oh yes"...says it all for me and....well done I SAY !

That satisfying smile after the chip said it all 😋😋🙌🙌👍👍
You, Sir, are a culinary genius! 😋🤣👍
My ABSOLUTE FAVORITE meal of all time.
Ain't nature brilliant? BRRRRILLIANT
The only thing I dislike about your videos is…I have already watched all of them.
How is that possible when he keeps making new ones?
Fair play Simon your cooking in the woods is something else .I couldn't cook that in a kitchen 😂😂
Spun steel, enough said. You gotta give the Aussies their due. Excellent as usual, plus an engaging host.
Oh, wow, Simon! Well done, sir!!
You have just made my wife and I very hungry. I must do that in the woods behind our house. Thanks for making the video it’s fantastic. Alex
Just in time for my lunch break! Thanks , as always, Simon for making this amazing content!
This is a super fantastic outdoor TH-cam channel on TH-cam and this is a fantastic king of real outdoors and 🎉
well done sir
Mcgyver....a bloke in the Woods, brilliant. I just imagine all the local wildlife sitting there drooling 🤤
My #1 bushcrafting TH-cam channel! Thanks Simon.😎
I love fish & chips. Never thought to make the dish in the woods, or out camping. Great video, Simon
If you were my dad, I would never let you leave the house without me.
Looks delish.
Watching you fix this meal all I can think of is Yum! Beautifully done!
I can always tell how good Simons cooking is when he takes his first mouthful of gives a verdict with a "mmmmmm".....the longer the "mmmmm" the better the taste is, and that certainly looked delicious, and my mouth was watering for sure. Great episode as usual.
Hahaha - yes, that was a long mmmmm 😁
Fish n chips in the woods!!!! Witch craft I say ♥️🍺🍺♥️
Great looking fish and chips, Simon. Thanks.
Thank you, Simon, for this great hike and cook video. And you are so right - the beer is important (on many levels!). Great to see you again! Best!
Fish and chips!! One of my favorite meals. Another great day outdoors.
Remember how chippy chips used to look, that was gorgeous.
Ah, Simon - the pinky sticking out just shows your classy side! LOL can you imagine mate some fox coming along through the woods and wondering about smelling fish that far from the sea? thanks for sharing
I usually give a thumbs up at the end of the video, but this one gets it immediately after reading the Description 😋 🤤 👍
Well Done! Video certainly lived up to my expectations after reading Description. Hadn't heard of mushy peas and was surprised to learn they come that way from a can. 😄
Nice job on clean-up too 👍
straight out of the gate smile on your face for classic fish and chips it means something
Pure joy!! The simplest things in life! ❤❤
That fish & chips looked incredible.
You do realise that you have raised the bar exponentially with this one Simon....my Mrs will never again settle for a tin of beans n sausage or a pot noodle when camping....😢❤😂😂
I made fish and chips for dinner tonight, and used your recipe. Turned out perfect! I used an Irish ale, which gave the batter a nice dark color.
Hey Simon, from our family to yours... we are sorry to hear about Maggie. the hard part of having dogs and its never easy so we are with you brother!
Also caught some of your videos with Kent and the one or one you took your boy along... that was a nice little adventure with Thomas and Maggie... good for you man!

Wow! my mouths watering. That looked gorgeous
Excellent Video Simon !! Camp side Lunch of Fish Chips looks Amazing.

Simon, pleased to see you back with (our opinion) your best stuff. Beautiful, thanks. J&A&B&T
Mouth watering watching you eat the beer battered fish!
That looked amazing Simon. You’ve inspired me to cook my own fish in the same way. I’m definitely going to try it 🔥 🏕
Hi Simon 😊, wow fish and chips twice, whith extras, you certainly excelled yourself in this one, and no pesky seagulls trying to steal it lol. Thanks for another great video mate, stay safe, best wishe's to you and your's, Stuart UK.
Very nice, good content Simon👍👍🏴🏴
Yes bro! 💚 Can't wait for our woodland grub in a couple of weeks!
Me neither matey! 😁
@@simonablokeinthewoods should have sent me the left overs of the chips lol
My word, I'm hungry now Simon, that looked bloody lovely! Chapeau!
“Where there’s an opportunity make something with beer in it, I’m going with it.” I’ll drink to that! Cheers!!!
Fish and chips sound great. I do not have those, but what I do have is popcorn and a good imagination.👍
Watching in bed, full of curry, thinking " I could just eat that". Nice one !!!!😊
I wish I could fish and prepare something like that on our upcoming 50 mile canoe trip. Yum!

Fantastic! I'm sorry, I just licked my computer screen before I could help myself. A good dose of Sally Goodin to boot. Great video, Simon.
Bravo Simon, BRAVO!
Utterly brilliant. I do love bushcraft food videos. Looked great.
I know what I'm having for supper! With a couple of large pickled onions !
I LOVE your channel Simon…after all is said and done you show the camp site clean up!!! WELL DONE MATE👍🙏❤️🙏

Hi Simon, great vid, really cheered me up. When can I come camping with you and sample some of that fantastic F&C!! 😋😋 Cheers Paul
That legit made my mouth water watching. Haha. Well done Simon.
I'm having fish and chips with a nice cold beer and watching Simon video, your camp fish and chips looks mouth watering I will try the recipe you made for your fish, cheers Simon for amazing video 😋👍
Crazy man! Things getting back to normal here, hope all is good, I’ll be in touch.
beer battered fish and chips, yum, yum ,yum .
You never fail to amaze me Simon, that looked absolutely delicious. I’m a chef and spent most of my life in the army so I know how difficult it can be to do that style of cooking. Well done you 🎉🎉🎉

Thank you for another great video. Great to see you completely clear up the site after you have finished your video. I’ll have to try the batter.
What a great looking meal! YUM! Thanks for sharing again today!
Hello Simon, I’ve been planing to do some camping with my kids and that recipient is awsome for that day. Love it.
That looked a very enjoyable meal you had there Simon. Even better seeing it cooked close up. What a perfect place to be eating it.
I particularly liked the careful clear-up at the end!
Feierabend..and Simon has a video for us... perfect combination 🎉
I was waiting for the vinegar 😂 I never thought it was used to make the salt stick better, but here you go - thanks 👍🏻
That looked so good I am going to have to go out and buy some fish & chips now...!!!

Well worth watching and admiration for bush cooking skills
A mouth watering episode, well done mate.
Yep, good job Simon. Always have watched your content. What could be better than fish and chips in the woods, all washed down with a local brew. Keep 'em coming.
How awesome !
Simon, that looked delicious. Thanks for sharing this wonderful adventure.
Love it mate, can't beat fish 'n' chips. Well done, now you are 'Simon, that bloke in the chip shop'. 😂😂Cheers, Norm in Yorkshire.
