Whats cable 😂😂😂 I got rid of that shit like 2 years ago. I watch Netflix & youtube. I love stumbling up on random channels like this by accident. I think I watch youtube more than netflix tbh. Most nights netflix is on F is for family, or paradise PD or something else with the volume low, while I'm on my phone watching TH-cam 😂
Foresty gonna be clutching that slow cooker at his death bed 60 years from now lol Foresty: “We had a good run Sparky. Tell them our story!” “Ribs!” *flatline
This channel is highly underrated, just take a moment and pay attention to how much work he does in every video, especially the camerawork. This channel is unique and very special, very relaxing to look at, keep it going, we love it.
I agree. :-) Maybe he should come out with his own line of slow cookers. For those of us in the States, this would be like the George Foreman Grill...the Foresty Slow Cooker. LOL
Dude. You need a spot on the Food Network Channel. Seriously. “Van life Cuisine, roughing it never tasted so good”. Your time slot would be #1 hands down. Pizza in a slow cooker, WHO KNEW???? You keep breaking creative cooking barriers in the van. Kudos 👍
You know, Foresty, I think that this may be the first video of yours that I ever watched, and it is what initially attracted me to your channel. I was watching a lot of van life videos during the Covid lockdown a few years ago, and I saw the thumbnail on this video, and I remember thinking, "Look, that guy lives in a van and he can make pizza!" So I watched it, and I was immediately hooked. I knew that I had found a kindred spirit with all of the mountain climbing, camping, hiking, cooking and your love of the outdoors. You are an exceptional person and your channel reflects it. Thank you for many happy hours of watching your videos!!
I don't think I've ever commented on a video before but you have quickly become my favorite channel. You are so genuine and your videos are awesome, never any clickbait, every second of the videos are pure entertainment! Keep up the good work man!
The genuine smile you have on your face while hiking warms my soul. I love your channel and I get so excited when I see that you’ve posted a new video!!
I would surely like a monthly video on the "financial aspects" of living in a mini van. Revenue from TH-cam, working jobs, cost of living, car payments, taxes and everything is money related. Most TH-camr who live in vans avoid talking about money. They sensationalize living in the van, but in reality some people are going through financial hardship and shedding a light on the financial aspect would surely help them out making a decision.
Been subbed for a little bit. Want to make a comment if you don’t mind. Although the cold weather is NOT for me, I certainly see the beauty in you way of life. Keep it up man. I’ll watch your vids every time you put one up.
I love the winter, the snow, and the slowing of modern society that comes with the harsh environment. I love the summer, the warmth, and the livelihood that proliferates.
When the rest of the world are fighting over politics and arguing about life and general this young man is enjoying nature at its best and living life at its best enjoy brother well deserved happy travels to you
as someone who lives in the Chicagoland area and considers myself a deep-dish pizza snob as a result... Yeah, I'd make and eat that slow cooker pizza. Seriously, you should keep that thing. it's put in a lot of work for you at this point.
Near Philly, but from Elgin, IL. I watched the video just for the deep dish pizza! Made deep dish pizza for a past Super Bowl. Turns out that my Philly friend said was the best pizza he ever ate!
Foresty, you seriously make me question why I’m working my life away. Much respect for the way you have made your life so simple but yet so exciting. Stay safe buddy!!!
He's let go of every attachment to live a simple life. He won't necessarily keep it. He can always get another one another time. It will be interesting to see if he really keeps it.
Foresty: "I'll use the slowcooker just one more time." Me: *Smiles and rolls eyes* Foresty: "I'm a little behind schedule so I gotta pick up the pace." (Stops to build snowman) Me: *Literally laughs*
Awesome video man. Refreshing to see someone else my age who can actually cook. There is no excuse for an adult to not be able to cook, it's an extremely important life skill.
Dude, I just have to say how impressed I am with your hiking skills! I'm 61.5 and always dreamed of a hike like the ones you go on. Of course I couldn't do it now, but what beautiful places you go to. And you have convinced me to get one of those tiny cookers! That pizza looks delicious. Take care and thanks for sharing!
Hi Foresty Forest, An amazing hike. You say it wasn’t too arduous but I think you’re understating how windy and cold that it appeared. To see the fire lookout at the summit was amazing and then to see you arrive at the summit just blew me away. Please tell me that your diarising your adventures and cataloguing your photos so you can write a book about your life in years to come. Your leading an amazing life...may you enjoy each day to it’s fullest 👍. All the best.
Could you imagine building that fire lookout in the 20s. All that material had to be brought up there. Or telling an apprentice to head back to the truck and grab the board stretcher.😂
Ryan T i was thinking same thing. Besides having to pack it all up there they probably had to cut the boards and everything out in the bush. Tougher folks than most today
Thanks for featuring that information page on the lookout. The people listed must have been very hardy to deal with conditions like that. Loving the content Foresty!
I'd watch a 2nd channel of just you doing the slow cooker, this channel is inspiring and you are living the dream! Thanks for sharing your true freedom with us
You do amazing things in the slow cooker in a mini van! You are creating better dishes than I am in my custom kitchen in my four bedroom house😂😂😂 👍🏾 Keep the cooking videos coming, man.
Try eliminating the parchment paper and greasing the inside of the pot with shortening or olive oil. That'll help crisp it and will also be easy to turn out onto a board. Also reduce moisture in ingredients as much as possible.
Or lay the dough on the flat paper first and then put both into the slow cooker together and yeah, the cornmeal goes underneath the dough. Loving this channel ❤️
The drone shots in this video have been some of my favourite so far and the parking spot was crazy. The wind made for some pretty crazy visuals and I'm glad you made it safely. Definitely my favourite hike you've done so far.
The look of Joy while hiking through that wind up to the lookout. Smiling while having a snack before walking down. Don't take it for granted all of it, wind, snow, cold, it's all amazing!
When having to touch the dough, dip your fingers into the flour to dust them. At the same time take a pinch out with you. Sprinkle the pinch on the top of the dough then use your dusted fingers to collect the dough to work. Works great.
Showing love and sending good energy your way from Detroit, Michigan. Im literally about 10 minutes away from Windsor, Ontario. Hope all is well bro. I love your channel. And when you cook I get hungry as hell 😂😂. Have a great week brother. & stay safe & warm!
WOW!!!!! 😄😃 Just gorgeous scenery!!!! You are living the dream!!!!!! One last time with the slow cooker.....whatever!!!!! Lol!!!!! 😂 That pizza looked soooo good!!!
By far the best content available on any media these days. Unbelievable. So many aspects to Foreesty Forest channel - multi-talented! He should have millions of subscribers. Added bonus just such a nice humble guy who also cooks fabulous food. #1 for sure!
"the only way to keep the outhouse on site was to build it out of stone". I wonder how many toilets rolled down that mountain before they fixed that mistake.
Beautiful mountain drone shots every time. You put a lot of attention into the details. Love your mountaineering stuff. After 30-40k step days at that altitude/elements you can eat the entire Stewy slow cooker every time. Lol
FF, you do such a great job and the effort you put out is incredible. I love your meals and how much care you put in to them, most people just bust open a can. Thanks for the extra effort.
The view from that hike was amazing. I really envy your lifestyle. Hiking, cooking, and making a small space like a minivan livable is such an amazing way to go about life.
You're such a tease with that slow cooker. You're not going to get rid of it are you as you said you'll have to turn it up high for the last hour of cooking the pizza next time you make it. You would have woken every bear up for 100 miles around with the smell of it! Glad things have worked out for you. You have a lot of talent and determination. Keep up the great videos. They are now becoming very slick.
I think your videos are so easy and fun to watch. Why? Because the subject matter interests me but more importantly it's your tone and delivery that is spot on. Basically it's your personality that makes the videos cool. I also like the cooking lessons. It's a neat way to "spice" up your vids. Keep it up!
”One more time with the slow cooker”
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Lol. .. like an old rock band. ..farewell tour ...again 😁
Andy W
Put it in Latin, on a T-shirt, sell a million.
We need a t-shirt with this on it!
I'd say keep the slow cooker! Its perfect for van life!
Is that cause he’s vegan or something since last week?
It's funny how cooking deep dish pizza in a mini van is more interesting than anything on cable.
lulz... true.
Whats cable 😂😂😂 I got rid of that shit like 2 years ago. I watch Netflix & youtube. I love stumbling up on random channels like this by accident. I think I watch youtube more than netflix tbh.

What about ... The Kardashian's or the new Dragnificent show ??
haha ha ha you got that one right
Foresty gonna be clutching that slow cooker at his death bed 60 years from now lol
Foresty: “We had a good run Sparky. Tell them our story!” “Ribs!” *flatline
That's a FACT
Foresty Forest: When I die.. cremate me and place my ashes in my slow cooker
Slow cooker ain’t goin nowhere
Lol!
Nice😂😎
Just a man, his van, a camera, and a slow cooker
Keep the content coming bud 👍😎
This channel is highly underrated, just take a moment and pay attention to how much work he does in every video, especially the camerawork. This channel is unique and very special, very relaxing to look at, keep it going, we love it.
and very inspiring too. 👍
Agree completely
Everything you said along with the fact his passion and enjoyment is completely infectious!
Agreed. I loved that shot of him hiking back to the van with the peak in the background, and realizing from how far he had really come.
Oh, exactly. Especially the shots from drone. Unbelievably good.
"Let's take 15 minutes and talk about it in detail" had me laughing out loud
I am really starting to hope that “ One last time with the slow cooker” Will be an ongoing motto for you! I absolutely love your videos!
T-shirts
I agree. :-) Maybe he should come out with his own line of slow cookers. For those of us in the States, this would be like the George Foreman Grill...the Foresty Slow Cooker. LOL
same
@@natf7409 Great idea Nat F 👍
My thoughts exactly, it's a sweet catch phrase
Dude. You need a spot on the Food Network Channel. Seriously. “Van life Cuisine, roughing it never tasted so good”. Your time slot would be #1 hands down. Pizza in a slow cooker, WHO KNEW???? You keep breaking creative cooking barriers in the van. Kudos 👍
We can rest peacefully tonight knowing he is alive and well
Nemesis XS\ ... agreed! Better than him being in many peaces.

YES. Another video from the Canadian MiniVan SpaceStation.
I cannot fathom how this dude was getting by WITHOUT the slow cooker...
So this is pretty much a minivan cooking channel 😂
happens when you buy a cooker just for testing the electric system
Brings a lot of joy to see Foresty Forest eating good
No one is complaining
Certainly what's it turned into for me 😂 This channel is as good as the food he makes. Just amazing 👍🏻
@@jacoje that's very true, I've not seem one bad comment.
My wife has just started having contractions and I’m sitting in the en-suite enjoying mr forest 😊😊
Daniels Films 😆 congratulations and hope all goes well with your wife and new born baby. What are y’all having?
Daniels Films yooo congratulations
If you have a baby boy will you name him Forest E.?
Labean James thank you 😊
Michael Reyes thank you! It’s a surprise 😉
He's cooking in a van and makes his own pizza dough.
he's the guy by wal-mart
Really! I don’t like making yeast dough in my regular kitchen because of the flour everywhere.
I can’t even do that in my fully equipped kitchen.
He's already leagues ahead of Dominos for that
PS: my Domino's burns have nothing on John Oliver's.
@@12DanDaniel there isn't flour everywhere if you just use a bowl.
I don't think I've ever commented on a video before but you have quickly become my favorite channel. You are so genuine and your videos are awesome, never any clickbait, every second of the videos are pure entertainment! Keep up the good work man!

The pizza was click bait

The genuine smile you have on your face while hiking warms my soul. I love your channel and I get so excited when I see that you’ve posted a new video!!
Foresty: One last time with the slow cooker.
Slow Cooker: I am... Inevitable.

If you don't get out and do some sort of physical activity in the winter you end up fighting the winter blues. 🇨🇦
I like the guy's videos he has great views when he goes on his hiking trips and great cooking ideas as well..
I love the winter, the snow, and the slowing of modern society that comes with the harsh environment. I love the summer, the warmth, and the livelihood that proliferates.
@Rhoho your absolutely right. I need to move somewhere warmer.
When the rest of the world are fighting over politics and arguing about life and general this young man is enjoying nature at its best and living life at its best enjoy brother well deserved happy travels to you
as someone who lives in the Chicagoland area and considers myself a deep-dish pizza snob as a result...
Yeah, I'd make and eat that slow cooker pizza.
Seriously, you should keep that thing. it's put in a lot of work for you at this point.
I'm here as well; this city always comes to mind when pizza is mentioned.
South side has the best pizza 🤣
@@zachL0ls The South Side has the best everything when it comes to delicious food.
Near Philly, but from Elgin, IL. I watched the video just for the deep dish pizza!
Made deep dish pizza for a past Super Bowl. Turns out that my Philly friend said was the best pizza he ever ate!
@@gregyohngy After how many beers?
I love how you are out hiking for hours and hours in some of the most stunning scenery in the world.....while thinking about pizza. I can relate. 🍕
I am in my office, working. Saw a notification from Foresty Forest. Stopped working, put on my earbud and enjoyed that pizza!
That was pretty cool. You went up that mountain even though the wind was blasting. Bringing us the awesome views!
Foresty, you seriously make me question why I’m working my life away. Much respect for the way you have made your life so simple but yet so exciting. Stay safe buddy!!!
Don't forget he probably works really hard on his channel.
@@hingeslevers yes. The rest of us outdoor folks go do this for our own enjoyment and don't have to waste time documenting it for yt.
"You up for a hike today?"
"Maybe a pizza hike, not a lasagna hike."
You should sell a T-shirt that says "One last time with the slow cooker and I'll donate it back". People will probably buy it just for the LOLs.
He's let go of every attachment to live a simple life. He won't necessarily keep it. He can always get another one another time. It will be interesting to see if he really keeps it.
The 9 dislikes are from the guys at the drift store who want the slow cooker back
thrift?
The camera work during the climbs is awesome!
You, sir, are a beast. No way I would do that trail even without the snow lol. Thank you for letting me live vicariously through you🙏
Why doesn’t this man have a cooking show yet?? Food Network, get on that!
Um - he does - you just watched it!
Not only that, he knows how to fix anything🥰
Catt's Box o
They need him, he doesn't need them. 😊
Gordon Ramsay should do a series
The man prepares better meals in a FREAKING mini-van than my wife does in our $40,000 damn kitchen!!
😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆
Oops! We won't tell your wife you said that.
What about your cooking skills? Lol
"The best meal ever in a mini van!" Just end that sentence with "today". Lol.
I probably have 10 times more material possessions than this kid and yet his life is 10 times more rewarding than mine....
Foresty: "I'll use the slowcooker just one more time."
Me: *Smiles and rolls eyes*
Foresty: "I'm a little behind schedule so I gotta pick up the pace."

Part cooking show, part outdoor adventure. 100% awesome. This guy's a national treasure.
I love seeing Foresty’s relationship with the slow cooker blossom 🤣 its gone from a one time deal to a way of life! Great times and happy trails
Awesome video man. Refreshing to see someone else my age who can actually cook. There is no excuse for an adult to not be able to cook, it's an extremely important life skill.
You're living the way I've always wanted to. From one Canadian to another, I'm proud of ya bud!
Came for pizza,
unexpectedly experienced one of the best cinematic hiking videos. 10/10
Channel has it all, good shots, food, appliance repair, survival obviously, humor, education 👍
It's epic this channel, hope he gets a million subscribers this is true freedom
thejoneseys hope to follow his steps later in life

My heart was pounding watching you climb that mountain for a bit there. Stay safe foresty! Great vid, I may even try that slow cooker recipe.
Stay safe out there buddy. Absolutely love how you capture the mountains on camera, so beautiful.

What he puts together in that tiny space is almost defying the laws of physics 😂
I'm really enjoying the minivan cooking and I think you should keep the slow cooker. You're on to something here, minivan cooking with forest forest.
truly one of the best channels on youtube right now, love the videos, hope you can continue this lifestyle, you look to be a happy person ❤️
That music you picked for the hike up was perfect. Love the atmosphere
Alright, you've convinced me. I'm buying a slow cooker and some hiking equipment
Thank you for a look back in time for me!!! When I was 13 years old climbed BLACK ROCK,NE
Try eliminating the parchment paper and greasing the inside of the pot with shortening or olive oil. That'll help crisp it and will also be easy to turn out onto a board. Also reduce moisture in ingredients as much as possible.
And I think the corn meal goes in first then the dough
Or lay the dough on the flat paper first and then put both into the slow cooker together and yeah, the cornmeal goes underneath the dough. Loving this channel ❤️
@@SisterShirley Corn meal isn't really necessary in this application. Its more for relieving surface tension on a pizza peel than anything else.
Hansen Grueber In his video he put the cornmeal on top of the dough
My favorite things. Minivan camping, walks in winter and cooking. Awesome video
One last time for slow cooker, for the seventh time!😂😂 But seriously, keep ‘em coming. More fatbike content soon!!

He should make t-shirts with that phrase. Sell them
You’re never getting rid of that slow cooker lol 😂
The drone shots in this video have been some of my favourite so far and the parking spot was crazy. The wind made for some pretty crazy visuals and I'm glad you made it safely. Definitely my favourite hike you've done so far.
Love 🇨🇦. beautiful country shown by foresty forest ❤

I thought he executed van deep-dish perfectly - part of the fun of making dough is picking it from under your fingernails for an hour afterwards.
No matter what the conditions, he is pretty much always has a big smile going when out hiking or riding...I know the feeling well!!!
