Started vacuum packing my meals now. Is storing them as ‘moist' better? Also, seems that heating in microwave takes the moisture out and makes the food a bit stodgy. Is it better to use pan of boiling water?

I do believe that flat iron became more commonly used as it was previously difficult to remove the tissue (or something like that). Probably dreamt it sometime knowing me.

Having a hot meal on the bank is such a pure and simple joy. Particularly if accompanied by a good drink (hot cuppa or a glass of red wine).
I normally cook something hot for breakfast and dinner, with something cold for lunch.
Something like:
Breakfast: bacon and egg sarnie
Lunch: pasta salad
Dinner: beef and noodle stir fry or a chicken/leek casserole with some good bread. Cook these at home and bring them with me.

One of the companies I worked for, Redcat, had rump, fillet and sirloin steak on the menu. My chefs view and mine, was for the cost and taste you were better off with the sirloin or rump.
Tuesday night I ended up cooking diced chicken breast with chilli, ginger and black pepper, garlic, mushrooms and string beans with rice cooked with tarragon and turmeric.

I think this thread needs to be made a sticky personally! With the top thread having all the meal ideas mentioned. Anglers could then have a definitive list and add to it as the years progress along with the ability to cook better meals with items such as the Cobb.
C'mon Mods, you know it makes sense....

Aidey,
Sadly Google analytics has been changed. Older threads or even posts do not show up on Google, or drop down the search finds, even with new posts added.
I've had to go through another forum and remove goodness knows how many posts from the database.
I must admit that I am not a Ridgemonkey or Cobb fan, everything I cook is pretty much done with saucepan and frying pan and camping stuff is not good enough, it's too flimsy, doesn't hold heat and cooks unevenly, so my frying pan is a proper carbon steel, stainless handled pan, that I got in the 1990's. Camping cooking stuff is fine for boil in the bag, army ration pack pot noodle meals, but for decent cooking...
The Ridgemonkey may make omelette easier than I could in the frying pan, or cook bacon both sides all together, but to be honest, I'm happy cooking as I would at home, or for the hotel or restaurant at work, and I'm pretty good with that.
