As a B&B owner and Lon time baker, try mixing all your dry ingredients including powdered milk at home and just add the butter and water at the camp site. It takes the guess work out of the equation.
Those biscuits made my mouth water. I can smell them, taste them even. Delicious, especially on a cold day after walking through the bush for hours. With a hot cup of soup maybe, so yumm.
Man the stuff you do just melts my butter. We are so much alike. I watch every video that comes on and say would you look at this!! Your videos make me think a little deeper. Be prepared brother it's coming and I'm ready.
If you don’t have Dutch oven (backpackers), use same mix or bisquick. Mix in zip lock bag and use a green stick (about 2 inch dia), remove bark and “roast” it over fire
Those drop biscuits look good! Just add some gravy and a couple of eggs on top. I am baking biscuits and making sausage gravy on the fire pit tomorrow. Another good informative video with valuable outdoors cooking skills.
Really a GREAT video. I always enjoy watching you cook over a fire, and this makes me want to make this recipe! I am copying them and keeping them in our backpacks, to have to make when we are out and about. Thank You for your recipes and how well you show how to do your recipes and the ins and outs of them. Can't get any better than Home Made Biscuits!!!!!
Really enjoying the cooking videos. Found your channel a couple days ago and have been binge watching. You have some awesome recipes. They’re simple and everything looks delicious 😋. Thank you for sharing and God bless!
Wow... You use the same recipe for biscuits that I do! When camping, though, I make them dryer and wrap them around a stick (or hot dog on a stick) and roast them over the fire.
I always have Dry Milk and I do most of our cooking at home. I like to use it in our homemade bread. It makes the bread more moist and it helps to keep it fresher longer. Give it a try, but be sure to buy the Whole Milk, not the Nonfat milk as the Whole Milk tastes more like the gallon of milk you buy in a store. The nonfat milk has a bit of an after taste.
Powdered milk is the same as skim milk. There is no milk fat (cream) in powdered milk. Therefore if you make these biscuits with fresh milk they will taste different , much better.
Thanks for the recipe!! Will give it a try....HOWEVER, you may want to use a store brand of plastic measuring spoons and fill each one with something dry and/or liquid until you get used to seeing how much each one holds JUST FROM LOOKING AT THE PILE on the table or LOG. The reason I say this is...watching you, I could tell by looking at the amount you used, it was way too much baking powder, sugar and definitely too much salt. Remember, TEASPOON is so much smaller than TABLESPOON. Dump a teaspoon of sale or sugar in the palm of your hand and a Tablespoon of the same in the other palm of your hand so you can see the difference...it helps, for those who are VISUAL learners. I'm sure by now you have it MASTERED, as all the other tips you share. Thanks again!!! They baked great, gorgeous biscuits, maybe I was wrong.....lol.....Provide your address, will send you the best orchard made APPLE BUTTER you ever ate and especially good on biscuits......Look great!!!!
Dan, you looked like my 5 year old grandson when you took the first bite! Nice vid man, though you just cost me the price of a Dutch oven I just ordered ha ha :-)
Looks tasty, dude. =) Hey, have you ever tried making your biscuits with sourdough/sourdough starter? I personally like the taste of them better than with just ordinary milk. Might be worth a shot.
What size camp oven are you using Dan? You looked like a T-Rex ripping into that biscuit! You obviously enjoy the old days-old ways. Thanks for sharing the knowledge, brother.
When I make bannock it uses buttermilk. I use the powder. The can says to mix the powder with dry ingredients and mix the water in by itself. Works great. Do you think that would work with powdered milk?
