Not me, I like cooking too much to subject myself to dinty moore. Crock Pot or Dutch Oven... don't get much easier making food than that.


It's a trappers life for me

I'm with you. Easier, cheaper, tastier and more efficient.

When I have a busy week I start making a stew on the first day and each day throw another potatoes, meat and onion in to keep the pot full and fresh.

Make up a batch of instant mashed potatoes, dump it in the middle of a plate, dump the can of stew on top, and heat in the microwave. Super good in a hurry! Also love those tins of Argentine Corned Beef in the tapered can.

If you spend a lot of time in the bush you have eaten your share of canned food.Not near as good as home made but convenient enough when running and gunning.
Canned sardines are my staple.Handy when you can eat your bait in a pinch.

I've eaten gallons of Dinty Moore. I would prop it against the turbo in my log truck. Throw a glove over the lid, and used the p 38 to open it. I did blow up a case or two, when I was loaded and forgot. Whoops!

I remember back as a kid they would tout it on tv as the official stew of the Green Bay Packers training camp.
One year, 1969 or so Boyd Dowler came and spoke at our high school football banquet and when questioned about it he said
that he remember seeing a can of it on the shelf at one time. lol

Dinty Moore at camp after hunting in the cold all day tasted pretty good to me in the 60's.

words of wisdom
I like to cook and I kinda like to eat my own cooking, but cooking takes time and prep for stew takes more time, living on your own or roughing it, often that is time you don't have. Sardines, corned beef, cured sausages and canned vegetates cut out all the prep time and get you a hot meal fast. Save those shore dinners and pot roasts and cobblers for the down time at home. Dinty Moore isn't the best stew though try other brands, there are a couple better brands and a few worse. I never seen a crock pot that worked in the woods.

Sardines in mustard don't make the best bait, rule of thumb with canned food is the best quality is packed in water and the stronger the sauce flavor the worse the quality. Sardines, in descending order of good- water, olive oil, soy oil, mustard, La hot sauce.
Good eating sardines come from Poland or Norway (cold water) and bait sardines come from Portugal and Vietnam (warm water). I'd rather use my food for bait than eat my bait as a rule. Canned meat and sardines stay in my vehicle year round.

I don't know where you guys get your sardines but these are the best.Golden smoked or kippered right from the east coast of Canada. [Linked Image]

These don't get used as bait,I use the cheap euro ones for bait.

For several years I used to help out an old guy on his trapline.I helped him get his beaver quota cut wood for his camp etc.He skinned some of my catch and did some great camp cooking. [Linked Image]

True, when I targeted coon decades ago we would carry sardines in oil for coon bait and sardines in mustard sauce for snack!
