I use an old trick from my school days (my Mom packed my lunch this way in the winter... northern Alberta)... try making some hot soup, pour into a wide mouth thermos, leaving some room, slip in a good smokie and close the lid.. wrap a bun in tin foil and when your ready to eat, put the bun (still wrapped in tin foil) on top of you muffler for 15 minutes.. find a nice spot... carefully pour the soup into the cup, place the now steaming hot smokie on the bun and dig in!

 

Gee I feel like a real city slicker, we just stop in a tavern or cafe get a pizza or sandwich and a root beer.

 

at the drive through window I bet!

 

Wow where do you ride Upnort? Where I ride you don't even see another person let alone a store. I have seen a bear or two and plenty of moose but the closest tavern is 50+ miles away.

 

I went riding on sunday with some of my buddys and there was a party of snowmobilers sitting down around a fire, they waved us down and asked us to sit for a wile, we agread. great time , got out the grills made some pretty good burgers if i do say so. great times. we all agread to meat at the same spot next sunday, gunna be a good time.oh yeah, i actuly had to help a snowmobile get unstuck in snow! what in the world was yamaha thinking i mean that snowmobile got stuck in snow and had to be pulled out by a ~POLARIS SPORTSMAN 500HO~ hahaha we were singing hahaha all the way home... ok so we did not sing but ahahhaahahhaa anyway

 

There's just something magical about an open fire. A barbeque on the open trail can bring a smile to the worst of ATV trips. It's a must for every trip...even if you are only going out for a few hours. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

 

When I was young we always heated food up on the engine of the car while we were driving to the campsite. Now, if I could only figure out how to do that on the quad... My muffler isn't even right for this. So I guess it'll always be sandwiches, gorp, and at best, hot coffee.

And yeah, where do you ride UPNORT? Downtown Cumberland? Ya just drive up to the 'drive-up' window of the local pub and order bangers and mash to go???? I wanna ride there! [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

 

You guys ever heard of the self heating M.R.E.'s ( Meals Rejected by Ethiopians) actually they are Meals, Ready to Eat. Military rations, not bad, and all you do is rip open the top, pour in some water,and in a few mins you have a delightful meal. We carry them in Smowmachines, ATV;s, Trucks, Planes. Best and easiest way to get something hot. These are not like the Combat Rations that some of us were familiar with in the 60's.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]

 

How do you heat the MRE's up . up here in Northern Ontario the mre's are very hard to come by.
I kinda like that one post where the sausage was put into the thermos of soup. I'm goin to try that one.

 

The MRE, have a Chemical pack in the out packageing. You rip off the top and pour in some water, and it has a reaction that causes heat, and lots of it. then you take the inner package out,of the water, and that is the food. We had a couple of fires up here last year, and suddenly there are MRE all over the place. I know one guy that has 20 cases, which I think is a bit much. We managed to burn over 6 million acres. It was a real pain in the butt, and ruined my summer of fly fishing. Had to stay and watch the fires burn towards my cabin. I am not sure if you guys have the same types of MRE's.
