Ice Fishing Meals

[prov1900]

Is it too early to kick out new/old ideas for meals on ice? Lets hear them. My fishing gear is ready, now I need to get the cookware prepped.

I've done full breakfasts, chili dogs, steaks, burgers, and clam chowder.

I picked up a weber Q100 this years so play to do brats, venison steaks/burgers etc. Always have to make chili and bean soup.

Taco's in a bag, sloppy joes and spaghetti all pre-made stored in containers and warmed up in the house are some of our favorites.

T.O.W.,

Tell me more about the tacos in a bag. How do you make them, store them, and heat them. That sounds like a great meal on the ice.

Hot sandwiches in a vacume bag, then heat on the heater in a pot of water, yum.

I also do "camp breakfast" the same way. Heating stuff in the vac bag makes for a nice, good, hot meal.

Gotta love porty fishing . Use what you've got.

ive always made tacos in a bag like this...

~snack sized bag of your favorite taco chip (i.e. dorritos, regular corn chips, fritos..ect)

~taco meat

~regular taco fixins (lettuce, tomoato, cheese, salsa)

crush up the chips in the bag, add meat and fixins, shake, eat

Hmm, food in a bag...that would definately save some space and make me more mobile, my goal this year. I imagine the sky is the limit on what you could do in those bags. Make up a bunch now, freeze them, and take them out the night before you go fishing.

We make a lot of venison roasts, baked fish, frozen pizza's, and hotdish in the house.

I made a bracket for my Big Buddy heater and heat up any canned goods (soups, chili, dinty, etc.). I carry a boy-scout combo kit for utinsels. Someday, I really otta clean em.

Last year on Christmas I made giant pot roast and all the fixings on lake of the woods in a rental shack. The last few years my friends and I have started to like the hot buttered rum mix when we're out on the ice. Sure warms the belly.

But you would lose that extra special flavor

I like to keep the bother and mess down on the the ice. I've made breakfast sandwiches that the guys really like with little cleanup. First I fry up onions, peppers, mushrooms,etc. that can be added to sandwiches, and put them on a paper plate. Then, I put a #3 cast iron pan on the campstove(#3 is the smallest size). A spray of Pam cooking oil, break two eggs into the pan and break their yolks, and add any of the precooked additions to it. Cover. As soon as the eggs firm up, flip them over. Then put on a good slab of ham, and top that with a slice of cheddar or provalone(sp) cheese. Melt. Slide the finished product into a large steak bun or sliced hard roll. Top with whatever condiment you like and serve on a paper plate or paper towel. Each guy decides what he wants on his and the only cleanup is one small fry pan to wipe out.

was at my sister in Milwaukee this weekend and this is what we did for brunch yesterday. Took 2 or 3 eggs and cracked them into double zipper, zip lock bags. mixed them up a little in the bag, then added omlet fixinings (ham onions, cheese, etc) then zipped them up and let them boil in a big pot of water for 20 minutes. Eggs are finished, and on the ice you could just give the people a plastic fork and let them eat out of the bag. I think with a big propane burner and a big pot, you could feed a lot of guys......

We do this as well just make sure the bags are the frezzer ones.

They are thicker and hold up better when you are boiling them.
