When I camp and only cooking for myself, the canteen cup is my pot. And I carry a metal bottle and cup for my drinks. So, I Love this Canteen Cup cooking series ! I'm 64 and starting camping as a small child. But, most of my life was car camping. I have learned so much from you. Thank You.
Blackie, Thank You, Thank You, Thank You . Is the only thing I can say ,for sharing this series on Canteen Cup cooking. You are fixing some Great Meals and not having to eat Black-eyed peas and Sweet Pickle Relish three times a day at deer camp when Carl was cooking, that's why I always volunteered to cook. Thanks Again Sir God Bless Y'all You and Mrs. Blackie.
I love my canteen cups. I have a USGI cup with the butterfly handles and also a Heavy Cover titanium cup with lid. I've made soup just by using salt, pepper, garlic and onion powder, olive oil to start the base, then adding diced fresh celery, baby carrots, and baby golden potatoes. Once everything's gotten a little roasted/toasted, add water and bring to a boil. Once everything is tender, add some thinly sliced beef of your choosing. For backpacking, when it isn't feasible to carry the weight of fresh foods, we'll dehydrate veggies and make jerky, then essentially do the same thing and make a soup. I feel like soup is often underrated as an outdoor meal, but they're nutrient dense, will replenish electrolytes, they're hydrating, and most of all, they're filling and pretty easy to make.
Things taste so much better in the field cooked like this! I made pinto beans in my cup yesterday! 2 hand fulls of dried beans cooked 1 hour over a pathfinder alcohol stove with seasonings was awesome! 2 handfuls of beans swell up to a full meal! Thanks for sharing Blackie! Another great video!
Trangia cooking on a rubber coated picnic table? Guilty. I learned that lesson last fall. I heated water for hot chocolate, let the burner use up the fuel then, let everything cool off. Finishing my hot chocolate, I went to pick up the canteen cup and stove but, found them glued to the table. It had melted thru the rubber coating to the steel grating below. Woops. It 'left a mark'. Great video Blackie. Another for the notebook. Thank you.
yep when i was a trucker i LEFT A MARK at a rest area out in Kansas one snowy day i made hot soup and coffee and when i went to pull everything up i found i had made a cup holder hole in the table lol
Good ideas, I have been carrying bullion cubes for 55 years... Always , along with 1cup flour, 1cup corn meal, 1cup rice, 1cup sugar... These 5 things are in every packout , then what ever else I need.
@@BLACKIETHOMAS with a little foraging, fishing, and trapping/hunting.,. That's what I do. Do you know about taking biscuit mix in a bag , making a " well " in it, adding water to make dough for bannock, the real bannock? I will take that for flour or instead of and also make pancakes if there is some wild fruit in season. I'll maybe jam. First time I did that was 1968 with my cousins, we picked some chokecherries. I'll never forget how good it was!
Hey Blackie, that spaghetti looked great! Thanks for the great recipe and video. Didn't ever notice that there was powdered spaghetti sauce or chicken/tomato bouillon cubes. Also thanks for the link for the folding spoon and fork. Awesome! 👍🏻👍🏻
some time when ya got a minute go walk around your grocery store not to show but to look for things like the tomato bouillon cubes .. often in ethnic foods areas you will find stuff you have not seen before
@@BLACKIETHOMAS I have all the varieties for a nice boullion drink to chase away the blues, to an ingredient that takes your meal from blah, to the best. I also have a tube of tomato paste that is grea! Try it in casseroles etc...
This is certainly an interesting recipe. I like that folding fork and spoon. I would do spaghetti and sauce if I'm car camping. I pour the sauce into the cup and once it's hot I'll add the noodles to soak up water from the sauce. I use angel hair noodles because they need less water. If I'm cooking on an open fire, I will use the can of tomatoes with garlic and whatnot added to make my own sauce. And I use Herbs de Provence for seasonings and when it's ready add the noodles. When the noodles are done, I thicken it up with tomato paste.
If you need a slightly larger pot for 2, I would recommend the Snow Peak Kettle No-1. I occasionally use mine on the kitchen stove with the burner on high without damaging the pot like most stainless camp cookware would.
One of my old standby meals in camp that lends itself to canteen cup cooking is chilli mac. Cook about a cup or so of macaroni in the cup, add some chilli powder to taste and then a can of "no beans" chilli - I prefer Stagg brand but any will do. Mix well and eat. The "deluxe" mac and cheese packages with the package of cheddar cheese sauce are a good base for this...
I love watching your videos. You always teach me some thing new. But it's so cool a lot of times you just make me laugh. Because you're a real person. I Like how you do things.
I like having diy dehydrated browned ground beef to add to my camping meals, totaly shelf stable, dehydrating frozen mixed vegetables is great too. A tube of tomato paste and dehydrated potato cubes can make a good beef vegetable soup.
I do appreiciate that. I did find a company called Grabill Country Meats they make canned meat. and they come in in small 13 oz cans fyi a case of 12 cans is 75 bucks for ground beef. I bought 2 cases and they do ship to your door.
We home can a lot of meat, maybe something you and Bear can demonstrate. When we can ground beef I always make up a few in half pint jars just for the purpose of using for one person meals in camp. Those store bought packages have become way to pricey. If I am planning a lot of cooking I stuff an extra canteen cup somewhere in my pack. It takes up minimal room and weight, and is so convenient to have around.
I am old school military and always carry 2 one quart canteens one with a cup and stove and the other with just a cup. I always have two of the cups that way. It makes things really nice.
I saw this video was posted just as I was leaving for grocery shopping. Watching after I got home, and kicking myself as I'd have liked to look for the Tomatoa/Chicken boulion(didn't see them when I restocked on boullion cubes after the soup/stew video). I also would have stocked up on a couple packets of the powdered tomatoe sauce. My bushcraft/woods wandering season ended this past Friday with me for the second year in a row not being able to get out due to time intensive to repair vehicle issues, so I hope I can find the time to experiment this fall, if my times not being monopolized by others.
Thanks, Blackie. A while back, when I had some extra money, I picked up one of the Case Hobo Knife/Spoon/Forks. Nice little set. Really pricey, though.
One warning about those aluminum tables is be careful not to spill burning fuel on them. The tops are held together with shock cord which melts if exposed to flame. I have a larger 2'x4' table I like to use and have had white gas stove accidents that melted the shock coats. easy enough to replace but still not what I'd prefer doing.
Thanks Blackie. I also use Herefords, but I use the ones that come in the pouches, like a MRE Entre. They have BBQ Beef, Beef Brisket, even Beef Meatballs! It's pretty shelf stable too.
Thanks Blackie, your videos are always so educational. It was really nice to see you and Dakota at the gather thing in WV. By the way like your feather 🪶 for your hat.😊
Great video! Thank You for all the tips. A thought: Ask your fire dept. first responders how they handle pasta cooking and they get a call. They take it off the heat put a lid on it and go. I'm not sure how the bullion and meat already added would do. I live close to a range, I almost thought you filmed this in my backyard LOL. This is a great series thank you again!
If you will be using tomato paste as part of a couple of meals you can get it in a tube sort of like like toothpaste. Squeeze out what you need and put the lid back on. I usually get 3 to 4 meals out of a tube. Good in anything where you would use tomato sauce...
I just realized I have one super easy pasta meal I came up with at home that would work great for camping (linguini works great with this one): Flush the water from your pasta and add some of Knorr's roasted garlic and herb pasta seasoning, mix, then add a big slash of good quality strained tomato sauce at will (canned or glass jar, it is 100% shelf stable if you don't introduce bacteria in it). Mix to coat the pasta evenly. I do add shrimp or Italian sausage at home but use whatever you fancy including grilled/roasted vegetablesl. Onions and peppers are my favorite. Excellent with Parmesan cheese and garlic bread. Feel free to try this one on video!
Blackie, it sounds like this demonstration is a two cup recipe. These cook in the cup videos are getting better with every recipe. I like the small table - great idea. Thumbs up to you.
Thats a bomb little table and its stupid light for $20 ( when i bought it) 50lbs weight limit...... and coincidentally, spaghetti was on tonights dinner menu😂😂
Good instructions. I would say that if have a group then think about a machine to freezedry food. Initially expensive for a family but several families pitching in and it's not so far out of reach. You just have to set up fair rules in it's use especially when there is a harvest rush.
there's a way of cooking noodles that doesn't require you to boil your water first, so it saves time, fuel, and water. I'm wondering how/if it could be adapted so you don't need to cook the meat separately from the noodles or use a separate container. the technique I'm referring to is from a video called "why i stopped boiling my pasta water" by Ethan Chlebowski. in the video, he makes a point to say that this technique works especially well for dishes with sauces. in any case, great video! I'm enjoying your videos on canteen cooking. i carry a backpacker's pot when i go out of town (which is often) and it would be very nice to make something more complex than cracking open a can or boiling water. have you ever cooked with Sterno as your heat source? if you have, do you have any recommendations for it? I'm definitely interested in that fork/spoon set you showed. it's difficult to beat $3 nowadays and the storage size seems perfect for a compact kit. I've been iterating on my kit to make it better and more compact without spending money i don't have. it's a bit of a mess right now, but hopefully not for long. it's my hope that i can get it down to a bedroll and spacious butt pack/small bag instead of the giant backpack i have now.
These Pathfinder cook systems are the Deal..I just received my Stainless canteen Trail kit...I've yet to get it Blackened..I carry Both now, the Cook kit And Trail 👍🏻
i have found that 1 or 2 of the dip cups of marinaira sauce is just enough sauce for a single serving of ravoli. also those microwaveable mac & cheese cups. usually take 1/2 cup water for cooking. on the bad side for camping, the noodles take a full 8 minutes to cook vs that 3.5 in the nuker. so what i do is zippy bag the contents (noodles & sauce mix) out of the cup for a weekend meal out of the original container. on the hereford products, have been looking for over 6 months for these item up my way. everybody is out of stock. will need to look for the libby's item. thanks. alternate noodle carrier, = use a mini m&m 1.77 oz container, the one with the plastic lid. add bread sticks to this meal, find the new mre itailan breadsticks. you get 4 to the package. loaded with oregano.
@@BLACKIETHOMAS did spaghetti the other night, 1 mini mm bottle holds just enough pasta for 1 person. as long as you add in a main like a couple hotdogs. sauce wise you want 3 to 4 tablespoons. also jimmy dean sausage crumbles go very well as a meat component. if packing a cooler,-- cook up a brat sized itailan sausage then slice & dice it for about a 1/4 too 1/3 cup meat. maybe even a 1/2 cup.
by using some of those finger thick screw top bottles you can transfer into them the contents of the World famous Shwartz brand Italian herbs, BBQ blends etc
I meant use raw beef instead od dehydrated meat if you're doing it at home to impress your other half. Never take raw beef camping unless you can keep it ice cold till used...You are not going to run back to the store twenty times from your campsite.
@@BLACKIETHOMAS Thank you Blackie! I see so many videos under SURVIVAL that hone in on fancy meals that I don't make at home. I whole baby piglet on a spit, or pot roast in a special pressure cooker in a vintage cave...flambe bananas with chocolate. That's GLAMPING,nit camping and definitely not something I'd pull out of a survival kit. They have more beer than food..ice cold at that. I have tea bags, coffee and a paper filter. Biscuits and gravy are as fancy as you get. Not that I don't know how to slap a fatty steak on a grill ang fill my belly. Just if a tornado is tearing straight for me, I'm not dragging out fresh herbs and veg for a pot roast if I survive. The rest of the "survival " videos are sizing up the equipment they've brought. At home, I don't have to have the top of the line foreign products. I need what I can afford that does the job and is good enough. I've never been in a downpour in my Night Cat tent, so I have a waterproof tarp to put over it. Rather safe than sorry or dead. You show good proven products that are good enough. Maybe with a bit of implementation. I have cordage ranging from wire, to thread, to bank line, to cordage that will hold my weight. Because I will have it for when I need it for the umpteen things that call for cordage. I got so many hate comments because I pointed out wrong things in videos about survival. I went to the school of hard knocks as Dad used to say. When word of mouth was better than a written contract today. When neighbors would risk their own necks for their neighbor for free. Many would not be here if our neighbor hadn't lent a hand to our families. People have so many so called conveniences to save time that have made them a slave to them. A dishwashing machine doesn't tell you the dishes aren't clean...the fancy stove doesnt tell you how to cook or if your food has spoiled or has been recalled because it's contaminated. Your fancy computer can only do what you tell it to. Look at comments and tell me that education hasn't been implemented like when we went to school with paper, pencil, borrowed books that you had to sign in and out and be responsible for or pay for them...We are in a society that thinks the world owes them. Rather than having what's good enough, we're bombarded by false education, brands, enslavement to money, ungodliness, profanity and more... I often feel I've outlived my time and no longer belong in this hypocritical world. Older people have much to give, but, nobody seems to want it. Your videos show us simple information that can help us either to survive or relax with our friends. We drink water first. Nothing wrong with a beer now and then, but don't make it a main point in every video. It won't save your life in a survival situation. So please keep showing us the hard earned tips you've learned in your videos...the simple things that may help save us. I do critic others obvious mistakes like hanging pictures in a shack they say saved thier life in the desert, yet, they have oodles of greenery outside showing plainly they are NOT stranded in desert. Or someone cooking a fancy meal on a fancy stove and grabs the pot off the stove they're commenting on with their bare hands and eats the suposedly boiling soup boiling from the pot.How hot is boiling to you and why get angry when I say boiling water requires protection for your hands to hold a pot of boiling water. Hateful comments for telling the truth and saying it's fake. You have shown countless videos that may not be exactly what we need for survival, but it's honest information, telling us the pros and cons of things you've used and wher we can find them at good prices. I know from experience that as soon as you plant the words Diet, salt free, natural, USA Made, diabetic, heavy duty or other descriptive words that may have been the case without any manufacturing influence to the product...like green beans are naturally diet food without putting it on the lable. Don't jack the price up like you made it low in calories. It wasn't anything you did. Take the stems out of the can if you want to be useful and leave the salt out. The other ingredients have enough salt. You don't need to state th obvious except to idiots looking for a new lawsuit that don't know that steaming coffee is HOT!! From one old timer to another, keep sreading common sense to others...we sure all need it. I'll throw in some emoticons for those that can only write comments through word pictures, not even always meaning anything or pictures of things like dog poop pile that in 75 years I've never found the need to express in a letter. Typewriters wrote a nice letter without using emoticons and contractions for bad language...X's and O's sufficed...hugs and kisses....lol.🙃...that's me confused....🤑put your money where your mouth is or talking money...🙄🤐zip it.🥱boring.🥺WHAT??? I don't believe that...😏Yeah right...scepticism
I really wish you would find someplace else to make these videos. All the gun shots, kinda trigger me a little bit. They just do. By the way I hate fireworks on the 4th of July. Used to love them, now I don't like him so much.
The sound of The Second Amendment gives a Bushcraft/Camping video character 👍🏻
thanks
When I camp and only cooking for myself, the canteen cup is my pot. And I carry a metal bottle and cup for my drinks. So, I Love this Canteen Cup cooking series !
I'm 64 and starting camping as a small child. But, most of my life was car camping. I have learned so much from you. Thank You.
Blackie, ty really enjoy your camp cooking videos
glad to do it

Thanks Again Sir God Bless Y'all You and Mrs. Blackie.
Wow, thank you
Gotta love camp cooking the food just seems to taste better.
i agree
I love my canteen cups. I have a USGI cup with the butterfly handles and also a Heavy Cover titanium cup with lid. I've made soup just by using salt, pepper, garlic and onion powder, olive oil to start the base, then adding diced fresh celery, baby carrots, and baby golden potatoes. Once everything's gotten a little roasted/toasted, add water and bring to a boil. Once everything is tender, add some thinly sliced beef of your choosing. For backpacking, when it isn't feasible to carry the weight of fresh foods, we'll dehydrate veggies and make jerky, then essentially do the same thing and make a soup. I feel like soup is often underrated as an outdoor meal, but they're nutrient dense, will replenish electrolytes, they're hydrating, and most of all, they're filling and pretty easy to make.
yep once you know the basics then its just taking the ingrediencies you have available and turn it in to a meal

Great tips and tricks.
Trangia cooking on a rubber coated picnic table? Guilty. I learned that lesson last fall. I heated water for hot chocolate, let the burner use up the fuel then, let everything cool off. Finishing my hot chocolate, I went to pick up the canteen cup and stove but, found them glued to the table. It had melted thru the rubber coating to the steel grating below. Woops. It 'left a mark'. Great video Blackie. Another for the notebook. Thank you.

i have found that 1 or 2 of the dip cups of marinaira sauce is just enough sauce for a single serving of ravoli. also those microwaveable mac & cheese cups. usually take 1/2 cup water for cooking. on the bad side for camping, the noodles take a full 8 minutes to cook vs that 3.5 in the nuker. so what i do is zippy bag the contents (noodles & sauce mix) out of the cup for a weekend meal out of the original container. on the hereford products, have been looking for over 6 months for these item up my way. everybody is out of stock. will need to look for the libby's item. thanks. alternate noodle carrier, = use a mini m&m 1.77 oz container, the one with the plastic lid. add bread sticks to this meal, find the new mre itailan breadsticks. you get 4 to the package. loaded with oregano.
good info thanks
@@BLACKIETHOMAS did spaghetti the other night, 1 mini mm bottle holds just enough pasta for 1 person. as long as you add in a main like a couple hotdogs. sauce wise you want 3 to 4 tablespoons. also jimmy dean sausage crumbles go very well as a meat component. if packing a cooler,-- cook up a brat sized itailan sausage then slice & dice it for about a 1/4 too 1/3 cup meat. maybe even a 1/2 cup.
Can you give some additional info about the folding knife? Name and where purchased?
sure smokey mountain knife works (website) brand name = roughrider model of knife= cotton sampler
Thank You
You're welcome
Thanks Blackie
glad to do it
by using some of those finger thick screw top bottles you can transfer into them the contents of the World famous Shwartz brand Italian herbs, BBQ blends etc
good point
Hi , Blackie, How long does it take for your canteen to cool down to drink from both side? Does the stainless steel give up heat quickly?
I use tomato powder for my pasta sauce.
My wife uses chicken stock for the rice at home.
it will add flavor
Can somebody tell me where to get possum bullion? Yes, it's ok if it also has jalapeño flakes.
Man u guys need to advertise the gathering better hell I live in wva and would have went didn't know about it till now
i may be coming back up next year
I have the same issue I live in the eastern panhandle would have loved to have went to that one.
Man I watch every one of your videos
I know you have a plan but I hope this series literally last forever and you just cook everything that could possibly be in the canteen cup
thats gonna be a long series lol
I meant use raw beef instead od dehydrated meat if you're doing it at home to impress your other half. Never take raw beef camping unless you can keep it ice cold till used...You are not going to run back to the store twenty times from your campsite.
you are correct
@@BLACKIETHOMAS Thank you Blackie! I see so many videos under SURVIVAL that hone in on fancy meals that I don't make at home. I whole baby piglet on a spit, or pot roast in a special pressure cooker in a vintage cave...flambe bananas with chocolate. That's GLAMPING,nit camping and definitely not something I'd pull out of a survival kit. They have more beer than food..ice cold at that. I have tea bags, coffee and a paper filter. Biscuits and gravy are as fancy as you get. Not that I don't know how to slap a fatty steak on a grill ang fill my belly. Just if a tornado is tearing straight for me, I'm not dragging out fresh herbs and veg for a pot roast if I survive. The rest of the "survival " videos are sizing up the equipment they've brought. At home, I don't have to have the top of the line foreign products. I need what I can afford that does the job and is good enough. I've never been in a downpour in my Night Cat tent, so I have a waterproof tarp to put over it. Rather safe than sorry or dead. You show good proven products that are good enough. Maybe with a bit of implementation. I have cordage ranging from wire, to thread, to bank line, to cordage that will hold my weight. Because I will have it for when I need it for the umpteen things that call for cordage. I got so many hate comments because I pointed out wrong things in videos about survival. I went to the school of hard knocks as Dad used to say. When word of mouth was better than a written contract today. When neighbors would risk their own necks for their neighbor for free. Many would not be here if our neighbor hadn't lent a hand to our families. People have so many so called conveniences to save time that have made them a slave to them. A dishwashing machine doesn't tell you the dishes aren't clean...the fancy stove doesnt tell you how to cook or if your food has spoiled or has been recalled because it's contaminated. Your fancy computer can only do what you tell it to. Look at comments and tell me that education hasn't been implemented like when we went to school with paper, pencil, borrowed books that you had to sign in and out and be responsible for or pay for them...We are in a society that thinks the world owes them. Rather than having what's good enough, we're bombarded by false education, brands, enslavement to money, ungodliness, profanity and more... I often feel I've outlived my time and no longer belong in this hypocritical world. Older people have much to give, but, nobody seems to want it. Your videos show us simple information that can help us either to survive or relax with our friends. We drink water first. Nothing wrong with a beer now and then, but don't make it a main point in every video. It won't save your life in a survival situation.
So please keep showing us the hard earned tips you've learned in your videos...the simple things that may help save us.
I do critic others obvious mistakes like hanging pictures in a shack they say saved thier life in the desert, yet, they have oodles of greenery outside showing plainly they are NOT stranded in desert. Or someone cooking a fancy meal on a fancy stove and grabs the pot off the stove they're commenting on with their bare hands and eats the suposedly boiling soup boiling from the pot.How hot is boiling to you and why get angry when I say boiling water requires protection for your hands to hold a pot of boiling water. Hateful comments for telling the truth and saying it's fake. You have shown countless videos that may not be exactly what we need for survival, but it's honest information, telling us the pros and cons of things you've used and wher we can find them at good prices. I know from experience that as soon as you plant the words Diet, salt free, natural, USA Made, diabetic, heavy duty or other descriptive words that may have been the case without any manufacturing influence to the product...like green beans are naturally diet food without putting it on the lable. Don't jack the price up like you made it low in calories. It wasn't anything you did. Take the stems out of the can if you want to be useful and leave the salt out. The other ingredients have enough salt. You don't need to state th obvious except to idiots looking for a new lawsuit that don't know that steaming coffee is HOT!! From one old timer to another, keep sreading common sense to others...we sure all need it. I'll throw in some emoticons for those that can only write comments through word pictures, not even always meaning anything or pictures of things like dog poop pile that in 75 years I've never found the need to express in a letter. Typewriters wrote a nice letter without using emoticons and contractions for bad language...X's and O's sufficed...hugs and kisses....lol.🙃...that's me confused....🤑put your money where your mouth is or talking money...🙄🤐zip it.🥱boring.🥺WHAT??? I don't believe that...😏Yeah right...scepticism
Must be close to a campaign stop.
lol
Would have liked to meet u
i will be back up that way next year just keep an eye on my channel and i will do up dates to let people know where i will be
I really wish you would find someplace else to make these videos. All the gun shots, kinda trigger me a little bit. They just do. By the way I hate fireworks on the 4th of July. Used to love them, now I don't like him so much.
i understand and sorry for the shots
