Why wait until after the trip to get that burger you're craving? "This actually tastes like it came off the grill," says one tester. The meat is a little crumbly but not dry; wrap it in a tortilla (BYO) with ketchup, mayo, mustard and relish (included in separate packets, so yes, you can have it your way). Testers also really liked this company's deli-style Roast Beef Wrap.

frequently asked questions
We recommend that all of our hot meals spend time "steep-cooking™" while snuggled in a Cook-in-Cozy™. We find this method promotes a more consistent temperature and steady cook time for Cook-in-Bag™ preparation; and results in a better serving temperature for your meal. When not in use, our Cook-in-Cozy™ folds away nicely in your pack for storage and weighs in at only 1.4oz.

Seriously, a freaking cheeseburger after all day on the trail! Excellent!!

I consistently find myself craving hamburgers while I hike. Usually this means I am thinking about where to get one on the drive home. Now I can have it on the trail. The simplicity of it is what makes it great, and very little water needed. I tried this on a whim, and as soon as got home I ordered more. One suggestion for the users, grab a couple of extra mustard packets to take with you it only comes with one. Everyone on the trip was jealous of how happy I was with my dinner.

This was so-so. It was fun to have a “hamburger” at camp, but the flavor was nothing special.

Surprisingly Good! Just reordered.

This is by far the best meal by far! I always have 1 or 2 of these in my bear vault with tortillas for my overnight campouts.
-
This is my favorite and I've found it to be versatile. The first time I used it as instructed (with tortillas), but, I've also added the meat crumbles to mashed potatoes and rice sides and it works.

BOMB! these are a great and easy lunch on the trail!
