Prep for this creamy, savory, Southern-style comfort food is as easy as it gets: Boil water, add to bag, stir and let sit for 10 minutes. Testers loved the well defined jalapeno and corn flavors, fluffy texture and mild tang provided by a blend of cheddar jack cheeses. Eat these grits as a breakfast cereal or, as one tester suggested, "as filling for a jerky-stuffed burrito."

frequently asked questions

Why is a Cook–in–Cozy™ recommended?
 

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.

    This is the best backpacking meal I have ever had. I ate it 4 nights recently and added hemp seeds to it for a bit of extra protein. The taste and quality of the meal are so high. I really appreciate having this as an option.

    This was FABULOUS!!! I’m not an egg eater but do enjoy a savory breakfast and this was exceptionally good. I was on trail for a week and I think this was the only meal (breakfast, lunch, or dinner) that I SCRAPED the package to get every bite bc it was so good. Might be good with some bacon jerky thrown in - will try that next time.

    I am not a grits person typically but this is an amazing meal on the trail and one of my all time favorites! I do buy and add some freeze dried sausage to it...but this is a truly good one to have in your pack!

    Another complete winner from Packit!! This one's great for either breakfast or dinner. Polenta really is a pefect medium for rehydrated foods. Done correctly (e.g. the prescribed amount of water) you get a cheesy/creamy meal that's packed with great flavors and is calorie/carbohydrate dense . This one is no exception. A little heavier on seasoning and scallion flavor than their Polenta and Sausage dish this would taky any number of your protiens of choice with no problem (a bit of chorizo sent this dish over the top for us!) If you've ever had a problem with partially hydrated beans or other veggies giving you digestive issues on the trail...these polenta based meals are the solution!

    Prep for this creamy, savory, Southern-style comfort food is as easy as it gets: Boil water, add to bag, stir and let sit for 10 minutes. Testers loved the well defined jalapeno and corn flavors, fluffy texture and mild tang provided by a blend of cheddar jack cheeses. Eat these grits as a breakfast cereal or, as one tester suggested, "as filling for a jerky-stuffed burrito."

    frequently asked questions

    Why is a Cook–in–Cozy™ recommended?
     

    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.

      This is the best backpacking meal I have ever had. I ate it 4 nights recently and added hemp seeds to it for a bit of extra protein. The taste and quality of the meal are so high. I really appreciate having this as an option.

      OMG. Amazing is an understatement. I added precooked bacon for a divine breakfast. 10/10 would recommend.

      This was FABULOUS!!! I’m not an egg eater but do enjoy a savory breakfast and this was exceptionally good. I was on trail for a week and I think this was the only meal (breakfast, lunch, or dinner) that I SCRAPED the package to get every bite bc it was so good. Might be good with some bacon jerky thrown in - will try that next time.

      I am not a grits person typically but this is an amazing meal on the trail and one of my all time favorites! I do buy and add some freeze dried sausage to it...but this is a truly good one to have in your pack!

      Another complete winner from Packit!! This one's great for either breakfast or dinner. Polenta really is a pefect medium for rehydrated foods. Done correctly (e.g. the prescribed amount of water) you get a cheesy/creamy meal that's packed with great flavors and is calorie/carbohydrate dense . This one is no exception. A little heavier on seasoning and scallion flavor than their Polenta and Sausage dish this would taky any number of your protiens of choice with no problem (a bit of chorizo sent this dish over the top for us!) If you've ever had a problem with partially hydrated beans or other veggies giving you digestive issues on the trail...these polenta based meals are the solution!
