Guys, just ran across your podcast the other day. Just got a new ride 2011 Tacoma which already has some great upgrades. Looking forward to getting it on the trail.
Ran across your meals for #34 podcast. I backpack a lot and here are a couple of meals that I think would be great on your next 4×4 Trip as well.
I smoke a pork butt ahead of time and freeze it into the portion size I want in vacuum sealed bags then either warm it in a non stick skillet or you can simply just put the bag right in boiling water and bring the meat up to temperature. Bring some buns, chips and bbq sauce and you have a great and quick meal.
The other meal I really enjoy is tortilla pizzas. Non stick pan again. I always use my backpacking stoves to cook even when I am truck camping. They don’t take up much room, they are lightweight and easy to use. You put the stove on low heat with butter in the pan and then your tortilla. I usually build my pizza on my plate first. Tortilla, sauce, meat of choice then fine grated cheese. Cook till the cheese is melted. Very yummy for sure!
I’ll include some pictures of my Tacoma, smoked pork butt and Tortilla Pizzas. Thanks for the great info!
Marcus

I love your trail stories. The story from a few shows ago about the Sierra Trek and then this week’s recap of the ‘Con weekend were both such great stories. I felt the adventures through my phone. Keep it up!!
