Cooking Pouch

[Benjblt]

I have a Jetboil micro mo. I bought some Ramen and I'm going to put together some dry broth, spices, and oil to add to it and cook it in the back country. I'm not sure I can cook it in my Micro Mo, nor do I want to. What would I use for a pouch to pour the boiling water into to cook it? I'd rather not bring another pot. I'd like a flexible pouch or something. I don't think plastic gallon baggies would be the best option. I know Aaron Snyder repacks his Peak Refuel meals and just cooks them in that but that just doesn't seem like the best option. Thoughts?

Just buy some zip lock style vacuum seal bags. Throw everything in them, seal and go. When ready, open, dump in hot water, zip lock them closed and throw in your insulated pouch or sleeping bag to "cook", open and eat. Easy peasy.

Why couldn't you cook it in your Micro-Mo? A friend uses a simple Alu pot and Pocket Rocket.

Put it in a quart ziplock, add hot water and put that into a Hyperlite Repack pouch or tape one together using bubble insulation from Home Depot or Lowe's.

If you get a thick enough ziploc it will be fine....not a storge bag. Use reflectix to make an insulating pouch. Try some YT searches for this. The hiking specific community has put out a lot of videos on this tupe of thing.

I use vac sealer bags. Then put the meal in the cozy below and let it rehydrate.

The Ultimate meal rehydration cozy available anywhere.

The Dinner Bivy is the original cozy to use premium Climashield APEX insulation. It retains more warmth and packs smaller than any other meal cozy on the market. Keep your Backpacking dinner warm.

So you think the vac seal bags will hold up to the boiling water huh?

You can get 100 Mylar bags that are meal sized on eBay for around 25 bucks.

One end has a ziplock feature that’s already sealed. The other end is left open. Stuff your food in from bottom and seal with your wife’s hair straightener. You can vacseal using a metal straw and your vacuum sealers attachment. There’s a ton of videos on YouTube showing how it’s done.

Come time to eat, open from ziplock end. Add boiling water. Reseal. Let it cook.
