what do you stock the most

[wareagle69]

just looking for info maybe i am missing something great. i can live on rice beans, canned mushroom soup and venison- usually have it about 3 times a week quick and easy and got lots of it, i have allot of different stuff like powdered cheese and pasta and such but the first mentioned items are what i have the most of

I defiently have more meat than anything else. I have an entire elk, and two deer in the freezer right now. I may get bored of meat....but, at least I won't go hungry

[crashdive123]

Good question. Lots of rice, beans, peas, dehydrated food, freeze dried food, tuna, honey, four, salt, and on, and on. Quite a bit of water. I figure I have at least a six month (maybe a year with tight rationing) supply of food. Maybe 5 to 6 months of drinking water. My ammunition supplies would probably last a lot longer (well - as long as there was no zombie attack)

Maybe 5 to 6 months of drinking water.

Really? Why?

I have all kinds of game and fish. Lots of venison and salmon. As for drinking water I have some clean 5 gallon pails in the garage. Good enough.

We have a cold room with stocks of can food, home grown potatoes, jams of various kinds, bottled fiddle heads, flour, rice, and some water. We are ok in that department as we have a brook that is clean enough to drink running by the deck. We also have a spring that is our water supply anyway.

For drinking should a fresh water supply not be available. Although there are several military bases nearby, in reality, my biggest threat is probably from a weather related occurance. When it comes to preparing, more is better in my book. Look at a Katrina type incident. It may be several months or even years before things get back to normal. While that is all happening, I will be rebuilding my life with the knowledge that I won't have to rely on somebody, but rather may be able to help others in the process.

Hopeak - 200 cans of baked beans?

Let me guess. You cabin is the one with the green fog hangin' over it.

Amount wise, dog food and duck feed. For the two of us, pasta and canned veggies (20 cans of asparagus this winter!! now THAT is luxury).

I like baked beans cold right out of the can, and yes we all need to do our part for global warming........

Hope - how much of the French Vanilla creamer do you keep on hand?

[Rick]

Shocked that young wolf came up to the cabin like that. Proof that at least his sniffer is broken.

I'd have to say we stock more veggies than anything. I have quite a bit of canned meat and ready meals but we have a great supply of canned vegies. I like my powdered milk, too!

[crashdive123]

Yep - got a pretty good supply of veggies and powdered eggs from Honeyville (thanks for the link a while back Rick).

[Rick]

I've been after them for the longest time to put those powdered eggs in something other than a #10 can. What a honkin' bunch of eggs that is!

[tsitenha]

Jason, an entire elk, horns and all.....

12 to 16 quarts, if I run out, it is off to Los Anchorage. But I can get a "FIX" in Girdwood half way in. Otherwise it is straight to rehab.

She didn't have horns....
But, I just got her the other day, and haven't even eaten any yet!

How about an entire elk and 2 deer butchered and wrapped.

[DOGMAN]

I guess technically, I have more dog food than any thing else stored. I have just under 3 tons of dog food!

Hopeak is still growing. You know how kids eat.
