Hey Brian-the camping recipes can be cooked at home the day before the camping, just take a bowl and pan with you, heat it up! lol. Sooner or later you are gonna have to cook something. Dan can give you some lessons. Pammyjill
As a camper who never relied on a campsite having the luxury of onsite food, I batch cooked and froze portion sizes of one pot food (e.g. bolognese, curry, etc) and then took a couple with me for a 2 night stay. Take a cool box/bag and put one portion in. The first night, the one not in the cool box will have defrosted ready to heat up. For the second night, the one in the coolbox will have defrosted ready to heat up. Plus, it will have kept your milk, sandwich ingredients, fruit, etc. cool for almost 2 days like an ice block. So win win and 2 dinners!
You need a little Ecoflow to take on your camping adventures 😉 You can then plug 🔌 your slow cooker into. If it gets too cold camping, you can then even plug an electric blanket into the Ecoflow & you'll be toasty warm! 😂
Oh no. I have been so enamoured with rescue dog videos and videos with dogs and puppies that I now have a foster arriving (potentially) tomorrow! 😮 ❤🇨🇦
Make your stews at home in the slow cooker and make enough to save for future camping trips. Freeze appropriate portion sizes and then reheat them at the camp site as needed. All you need to remember to do is grab the stew packets from the freezer.
I do envy your freedom Brian. You do what you like and go where you want. I had to stop driving 2 years ago because l couldn’t pass the DVLA eye test and living semi rurally my freedom has been severely curtailed . At 81 with arthritis , stiff knees and hips, l now have to get the infrequent bus and can only buy the groceries l am able to carry. Spontaneity left with my car and l hate it.
Brian make your Irish stew and freeze it in serving size bags. The day you go camping pull a bag out and it will thaw out by time you are camp ready. Put it in a pot to heat up and viola, dinner.
To be fair, it’s not a bad idea to at least temporarily remove them while he’s building the turret roof, because otherwise they could be permanently damaged. I do agree they need to go back in place tho
Hobo Dinner- favorite camping meal in Minnesota I large hamburger patty seasoned well Diced onions, carrots and potatoes Wrap in foil twice and throw on hot coals. Cook til vegetables are tender. Can add bbq sauce or steak sauce and enjoy.
Hello Brian. So very kind of you to give some extra puppy petting for Barry. 😊 Outside of a good Irish Stew reheated in a pot at the campsite, I’m still thinking of something, not sure yet what will work, but you have a lot of good suggestions to work with. Thanks for the quick checkin and it’s always a wonderful distracting moment in my day.
Get a dutch oven (cast iron pot with a lid) and look up potjiekos recipes. We call those pots potjies in South Africa and they usually have a round botom with little feet so you can put it in the fire. Perfect for cooking a "stew" when camping. You can use a flat bottom one too on a grid. The difference between a stew and a potjie is that a potjie is packed in layers and not stirred. It isn't fast cooking though. You need time, a book or music when you are alone or nice to do with friends. Get a smallish one.
Take the recipes from yesterday, freeze them in Seal a meal (Vacuum sealer) bags, then you can heat them in camp for an easy hot dinner. You can also freeze in jars and heat slowly in a water bath.
In Australia we call wild camping free camping. There are many free camp sites all over the country and there are even books and apps that list them. As for your cooking I suggest getting a dehydrator. We make things we like at home, dehydrate it, And store it in a mylar bag with an oxygen absorber. Then when we go camping, you add water to whichever packet you like and heat it up in one pot on your gas burner. You can buy pre made meals like this but it is cheaper, after the purchase of your dehydrator, to make your own.
Oh my goodness Brian! What have you started! Everyone has a wonderful recipe for you. I’m hungry just reading all of them. Hope you get lots of ideas and of course you’ll share with us. Loved your Irish stew recipe too, thanks for the ride. ❤❤❤😊😊😊
I found meself watching your vlog first!...before Dan's! Maybe the puppy that is most happy to see you?...or the "behind the scenes" snippets from the chateau? or the talk about Irish stews and pizza too?...or just the young lad with the wee Irish accent ...all of the above! Keep 'em comin Brian, you doing damn good!!
Oh, you want to make all this while camping! Some day you need to invest in a solar power source like a Jackery, I want one, with solar panels. You can power anything while camping! A heated blanket! 🥶 What you should have is a “Food Saver”, a machine to vacuum seal food, I love mine. You could seal your stews or anything else really into portions, boil water to thaw it and warm it up while camping! But freeze the stews/liquids first into portions or else it’ll make a mess. Trust me! I bet it’s beautiful camping in the winter there. Peaceful! Don’t forget if you haven’t already to paint the bolts on your light in black in case you haven’t. You’re welcome! 😬 Thank you! I’m glad Monday is over, mine was a blah day!
Hi Brian, thanks for todays outing i enjoyed it very much. Its the only fresh air I've had today. Love the puppy. There is a energy saving slow cooker called a wonderbag, I think. You do have to heat up your stew but once its boiling you put the pan in the wonderbag and it slow cooks your stew. It's works like a hay box. We used to use them when ws went camping with the guides but that was in a different century.
Just saying, love your easy vlogs even better than Dan‘s. Sorry. Your vlogs are so different. Your are very much life affirming. So here I go! Need your vlogs, so keep them going!!!!!!
I love it when you play with the pup. She obviously adores you. “Hello, Scratchy Bum” 😂😂😂. She was so pleased to see you. Brian, please tell Dan that sweet little puppies and huge delivery trucks do not mix well. She is still too young to understand the danger and got too close. My heart jumped into my mouth. The driver doesn’t have a hope of seeing her running around. Please, please, keep that gorgeous girl safe. I tried to bring this up this on Dan’s channel a couple of videos ago, but the comment never made it.
Maybe it’s time to get a power station and solar panels? Dan can probably tell you about his set up. Some of them would definitely power a slow cooker/multi cooker and can be charged by generator, dc, car battery, solar and regular home power set up. Also handy to have in a power cut! I’m thinking of getting one as I’m going to get APAP next year, so it makes sense for me to have something like that.
Make the food (stew in a crockpot )at home so you can reheat it when camping ! Easy peasy …😂 Camper van… Pascal has a tent on top …: so it’s a camper van !
Hello Brian. I remember my days of tent camping without the conveniences of home. We would load up an ice cooler with milk, bread and eggs . In an iron skillet we would put the pilburry biscuits and cans of beans with cut up hotdogs put it over the fire on a rack to cook the dough. Sort of a shepherds pie. It was good with some cheese
Maybe when you cook at home, pack a Portion in a freezer bag or Box and then when you spontaneously go Camping you can fill your cool box with some meals..
Hey Brian: One of the nicer features of CrockPot cooking is that you can make it before you go camping and heat it up with precious little effort. Additionally, you can freeze some and have it when you return home when you're too tired to cook. Good luck, DA
Hi Brian, there are a lot of good cooking ideas on here for you to think about when you go camping, even in the Winter. Love the music.💛 Pointing looks BORING! I couldn't do it, its tedious work. I remember Dan doing pointing work in the pantry hallway at La Lande while everyone was on vacation except him! And Billy and Simon having to point the hugh fireplace in the new kitchen at the Convent! I'd rather play with the pup and go camping.🏕🔥
...hmmm I wanted to say...cook the stew however you do in advance...freeze it in whatever meal size container...then you can take it with you camping already cooked and heat it up in pan...wah lah..easy dinner...add some fresh if need be.enjoy
You prepare your one pot recipes at home! Then you place cooled portions into zip lock bags. Lay them flat and freeze them. When you go camping you would take your bag/bags of dinners and off you go. Bob’s your uncle!
We call it dry camping when you’re not hooked up to power or water. Camping food favorite is chilli-ghetti. Make your pasta and bolognese, then add a can of chilli, some sour cream and shredded cheese. Soooo good
corn beef hash might be good, throw beans, boiled spuds, carrots, peas bit of gravy... a full meal. and once cooked, you can have hash sarnies too (i do that... its great but dont put the gravy... it makes it messy! 😂😂😂) great little vid, puppies and all! 😁 cheers brian 😁
My favourite stew is: 1 can of cooked chickpeas, clean them thoroughly. My favourite sauciges. Then you add whatever you have. Garlic, onion, leak, spices.Creme fraiche is a must have, add last. This is a simple dish that tastes much better than you can imagine! 😉
Your irish stew is very similar to beef burgandy. Just add red wine also. Do batches in sealed bags or jars and freeze them and when you go camping, unthaw and reheat!! Potatoes you can cook on a little grill or in a campfire wrapped in foil! Keep up the videos!! Thoroughly enjoying them🤩
That music is awesome and suits you and your vlog... rhythmic and steady... great to have that tune as your signature tune. Puppy is so Adorable and delighted to see you. Yes a "one pot wonder" on a gas cooker is the way to go when camping. Maybe consider making another fizzy pasta Brian's way that we can all try at our homes... then your signature dish too lol. France is so picturesque!
In Brian, make your Irish stew at night when you get home cook while you are sleeping. Then get up in the morning un plug pack in a box and bring to work with you. When you get to Dan's re plug into Dan's ECO Flo and keep slow cooker on warm or low. Then you and the guys have a great lunch. Then take rest camping. If there is any left.
freeze your stew into portions and take a covered pot camping with a metal grate to elevate the frozen bag off the bottom. add an inch of water and steam the frozen pre-cooked portion to thaw and heat. add pasta to water for noodles and stew.
Tell Dan to put the turquoise medallions (the jeweled necklace of the building) back on the building. I can't believe he's considering not putting them back in place. Its one of the few distinctive and architectural decorations left on the chateau.
Couscous! Perfect for one pot cooking. Boil water, put the couscous in, turn the stove off and in ten minutes you have the grain for dinner. Add veggies, bullion cube, tuna or other tin of fish or meat and viola! Dinner!
Hi Brian. Love the vlogs, and your wonderful personality. Re using your slow cooker to pre- make soups and stews for your winter camping meals: If you pre-cook and then freeze in containers just big enough for 1 meal each, they will stay frozen for a couple of days in a good cooler, and will thaw quickly over a camp stove. I do this all the time when I'm "wild camping" in Washington state, US. Good luck, and thank you for sharing your life with "the 20" of us.
Sausage Thing….. fry some good sausages. Add some chopped onion and garlic. Cut the sausages into chunks and then add a can of tomatoes and a can of beans (red kidney, Haricot or any beans of your choice.) plus a can of baked beans. Now I know baked beans might be difficult to find in France so double up or mix the other types of beans and add your can of Guinness and/or some red wine. Add any herbs you want such as mixed Italian or chilli or rosemary. Simmer for as long as you can. This will make enough for a couple of days for one person and day two will taste better than day one if you leave it in the pot to “mellow”. Serve with a large chunk of bread and lashings of butter. If you want you can cook this up at home and then warm portions up at the camp site ensuring you “manage” it like you would any other food stuff.
Hey Brian, I absolutely cracked up listening to you talking about your friend who sang the words wrong to an ABBA song, oh how it resonated with a lot of my friends and myself and that is what I love about your TH-cam channel. You’re real keep it up love it And thank you👍
Cook in slow cooker, then freeze it. Then take it with you camping. Also it’s a life saver when you’ve got no food in the house, but you’ve got a few frozen meals in the freezer to choose from. Especially when the weather is bad. 😮 I think that bit of metal is some of the zinc from the roof in the ”shatow”. (YT cc are sooo weird sometimes!)😂 Cheers to you, enjoying your little vlogs & puppy hugs! 😊
Just make stuff at home, and bring along for camping. Reheat in pot over jet boil et voila. Leftovers are always better the next day anyways. Cheers from Canada 🇨🇦🫶
I believe Coleman makes an LPG fired crockpot for camping (or emergency power outages). Fast & easy dish is pre-cook 1# ground beef seasoned with taco mix. Take along in cooler. In your one pot, make mac & cheese. Add a can of rotel (onions, peppers & tomato) and mix in the taco meat. Add some extra shredded cheese & and warm up!
Never knew what pointing was till I watched You tube DIYers in France. I remember watching American western movies as a kid and when they sat round the campfire there was a pot cooking and when the cook served the food up it was bean stew. Can’t imagine a man coming home after a hard day having that crap for dinner lol! 😁
The slow cooker can be warmed up then a box with straw around it or tin foil brain its easy take it fulling warmed up and been on for hours food is ready keep it warm or what about a sort of thing that you can charge it up
Hi Brian, making stew in a crockpot the day before, cool it, use a ziplock bag to store. When you camp- you can heat in a pan ( without plastic bag) over your portable stove or fire coals. I make bacon the day before and use the same method. Same for meatballs, etc. Not steak . Baked potatoes stuffed with cheese and butter, sour cream. Heat up covered in foil on coals. Yummy.
Brian, whatever you cook at home that can be frozen is fair game for camping. Cook extras and freeze for reheating at your campsite (or when you don't feel like cooking 'cause you're knackered from work)
I hugged a puppy for you today Barry.❤ Hope you are keeping well. B
You're amazing human being 🐕
Люблю тебя❤
That was one of the best posts by a channel I have ever seen Brian , a big thumbs up from me 👍
Just wondering if someone could hug you for me.....❤

I didn't scroll down and left exactly the same advice!
I came here to say exactly the same thing. Great minds think alike!
Campfire shelf stable hearty meal: 1 can meat, 1 can mixed veggies, 1 can cream soup. Open all, pour into pot & heat thru
Brian. It's about time you got FOOD INTO YOUR HOUSE!!
Well now I know how to make Irish stew 😂
Thank you for hugging the puppy for the gentleman who just lost his dog you are very thoughtful 😊

Brian, you need to take that puppy home. She can commute with you every day - see mom and the boys at the chateau.
I’d like to know her name🤓
I think she belongs to Dan?? Heard hin say he wanted a load of dogs around the Chateau...
@@mariannebaker1567 But she loves BRIAN. So it is really his dog.

My answer is on a postcard - I adressed it to the puppy 😁
Get a Dutch oven, I'll explain tomorrow if you remind me 😁
@@oldmaninthewood this comment makes me think that Brian and Nick need to do a cooking for camping video 🏕️🥘
Firebox Freestyle stove, billy pot, 5-way, fry pan and a small Dutch oven. Works with wood, charcoal, propane, etc.
You can do anything you decide to do. One clever man.
Get a dutch oven (cast iron pot with a lid) and look up potjiekos recipes. We call those pots potjies in South Africa and they usually have a round botom with little feet so you can put it in the fire. Perfect for cooking a "stew" when camping.

Tinkering with Zinc, I see. 😁Loving the puppy love breaks 💖🙏🏼💖
I’ve done repointing on my house. It’s somewhat therapeutic. But daunting as well.
Many many moons ago, Aldi had a stew called “Feuerzauber Texas” which was ideal for single burner cooker or open fire in one pot.
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Puppies and pizza 🍕 😍😘
It’s about time you take puppy home🤗and you can use the crock pot the nite before and all you have to do is warm it up easy-Peary🤗
We call it off-grid camping in Australia. My goodness you need to take that gorgeous puppy home with you.
You can buy a camping slow cooker called a Billy boil. You prep it before you go away and then put it all in and head away.

Cast iron dutch oven. set it in the fire and even pile a few coals on top. They are heavy but great for outdoor camping
Take care.
Enjoy your Evening 😊
Listen to a podcast or audiobook when pointing or a good piece of music. Worth a shot
Tell Dan to put the turquoise medallions (the jeweled necklace of the building) back on the building. I can't believe he's considering not putting them back in place. Its one of the few distinctive and architectural decorations left on the chateau.

Hi Brian. Love the vlogs, and your wonderful personality. Re using your slow cooker to pre- make soups and stews for your winter camping meals: If you pre-cook and then freeze in containers just big enough for 1 meal each, they will stay frozen for a couple of days in a good cooler, and will thaw quickly over a camp stove. I do this all the time when I'm "wild camping" in Washington state, US. Good luck, and thank you for sharing your life with "the 20" of us.
Love your choose of music 😊 happy monday to you also , have a great week ❤
I like the idea that you didn’t have any food in the house, so you got pizza from a truck. In France.
Sausage Thing….. fry some good sausages. Add some chopped onion and garlic. Cut the sausages into chunks and then add a can of tomatoes and a can of beans (red kidney, Haricot or any beans of your choice.) plus a can of baked beans. Now I know baked beans might be difficult to find in France so double up or mix the other types of beans and add your can of Guinness and/or some red wine. Add any herbs you want such as mixed Italian or chilli or rosemary. Simmer for as long as you can. This will make enough for a couple of days for one person and day two will taste better than day one if you leave it in the pot to “mellow”. Serve with a large chunk of bread and lashings of butter. If you want you can cook this up at home and then warm portions up at the camp site ensuring you “manage” it like you would any other food stuff.
In North America we call that boondocking or dry camping if you’re not hooked up.
Zinc? As someone else said get an Ecoflow and the world is your lobster🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Fantastic vlogging today. Great camera work 🎉
Hey Brian, I absolutely cracked up listening to you talking about your friend who sang the words wrong to an ABBA song, oh how it resonated with a lot of my friends and myself and that is what I love about your TH-cam channel. You’re real keep it up love it And thank you👍
Cook in slow cooker, then freeze it. Then take it with you camping. Also it’s a life saver when you’ve got no food in the house, but you’ve got a few frozen meals in the freezer to choose from. Especially when the weather is bad. 😮
I think that bit of metal is some of the zinc from the roof in the ”shatow”. (YT cc are sooo weird sometimes!)😂
Cheers to you, enjoying your little vlogs & puppy hugs! 😊
Glad you had a good weather day , I think you sent the rain here to Southern UK Great Vlog as usual .
Beautiful day. Thankful. Enjoy
Just make stuff at home, and bring along for camping. Reheat in pot over jet boil et voila. Leftovers are always better the next day anyways. Cheers from Canada 🇨🇦🫶
I believe Coleman makes an LPG fired crockpot for camping (or emergency power outages). Fast & easy dish is pre-cook 1# ground beef seasoned with taco mix. Take along in cooler. In your one pot, make mac & cheese. Add a can of rotel (onions, peppers & tomato) and mix in the taco meat. Add some extra shredded cheese & and warm up!
Freeze a batch of Irish stew and have it ready to go when you go camping. Just heat and eat.
Never knew what pointing was till I watched You tube DIYers in France. I remember watching American western movies as a kid and when they sat round the campfire there was a pot cooking and when the cook served the food up it was bean stew. Can’t imagine a man coming home after a hard day having that crap for dinner lol! 😁
Love puppy footage!!
All nice suggestions...
Lol good video Brian!
What a beautiful pic of the Chateau (minus the turet) Won't be able to get that shot for long!!
The slow cooker can be warmed up then a box with straw around it or tin foil brain its easy take it fulling warmed up and been on for hours food is ready keep it warm or what about a sort of thing that you can charge it up
Hi Brian, making stew in a crockpot the day before, cool it, use a ziplock bag to store. When you camp- you can heat in a pan ( without plastic bag) over your portable stove or fire coals.
I make bacon the day before and use the same method. Same for meatballs, etc. Not steak . Baked potatoes stuffed with cheese and butter, sour cream. Heat up covered in foil on coals. Yummy.
Glad you got lots of recipes. Pointing you either love it or tolerate it😊
Brian do you believe you are already on your 31st blog. Way to go. We love them
You had me at "puppies"
Brian, whatever you cook at home that can be frozen is fair game for camping. Cook extras and freeze for reheating at your campsite (or when you don't feel like cooking 'cause you're knackered from work)
Happy traveling with you today
