Prep for this creamy, savory, Southern-style comfort food is as easy as it gets: Boil water, add to bag, stir and let sit for 10 minutes. Testers loved the well defined jalapeno and corn flavors, fluffy texture and mild tang provided by a blend of cheddar jack cheeses. Eat these grits as a breakfast cereal or, as one tester suggested, "as filling for a jerky-stuffed burrito."

frequently asked questions

Why is a Cook–in–Cozy™ recommended?
 

We recommend that all of our hot meals spend time "steep-cooking" while snuggled in a Cook-in-Cozy. We find this method promotes a more consistent temperature and steady cook time for Cook-in-Bag preparation; and results in a better serving temperature for your meal. When not in use, our Cook-in-Cozy folds away nicely in your pack for storage and weighs in at only 1.4oz.

    This is damn good. I normally skip breakfast when backpacking, but I always manage to make room for this on at least one day.

    This meal was my introduction to PackIt, and it was while we were camped next to them at an expo event. We had shrimp and grits on our menu already, so I decided to try their much more elevated grits for our dinner. I was astonished by the quality and taste of their version, and have loved every meal of theirs since then.

    Really like this one for breakfast; hearty, warming and satisfying. Kinda wished there was more. Suppose I could add a few oz of summer sausage to give it some more calories and size.

    This worked quite well. Filling and spicy it was also light and compact making it easy to pack and carry. It was about on par both in terms of bulk and how much it filled me up as two packs of oatmeal with fruit. Nice to have to keep from getting tired of the same breakfast everyday.

    Love this one. Perfect for a quick hot breakfast and ready in 5 mins. Bit more creamy than the true southern style grits I grew up on but I love the kick of spic and the perfect amount of cheese. I actually keep these on hand at home for a quick breakfast - they aren't just for the trail.

      This meal was my introduction to PackIt, and it was while we were camped next to them at an expo event. We had shrimp and grits on our menu already, so I decided to try their much more elevated grits for our dinner. I was astonished by the quality and taste of their version, and have loved every meal of theirs since then.

      Really like this one for breakfast; hearty, warming and satisfying. Kinda wished there was more. Suppose I could add a few oz of summer sausage to give it some more calories and size.

      This worked quite well. Filling and spicy it was also light and compact making it easy to pack and carry. It was about on par both in terms of bulk and how much it filled me up as two packs of oatmeal with fruit. Nice to have to keep from getting tired of the same breakfast everyday.

      Love this one. Perfect for a quick hot breakfast and ready in 5 mins. Bit more creamy than the true southern style grits I grew up on but I love the kick of spic and the perfect amount of cheese. I actually keep these on hand at home for a quick breakfast - they aren't just for the trail.

    Prep for this creamy, savory, Southern-style comfort food is as easy as it gets: Boil water, add to bag, stir and let sit for 10 minutes. Testers loved the well defined jalapeno and corn flavors, fluffy texture and mild tang provided by a blend of cheddar jack cheeses. Eat these grits as a breakfast cereal or, as one tester suggested, "as filling for a jerky-stuffed burrito."

    frequently asked questions

    Why is a Cook–in–Cozy™ recommended?
     

    We recommend that all of our hot meals spend time "steep-cooking" while snuggled in a Cook-in-Cozy. We find this method promotes a more consistent temperature and steady cook time for Cook-in-Bag preparation; and results in a better serving temperature for your meal. When not in use, our Cook-in-Cozy folds away nicely in your pack for storage and weighs in at only 1.4oz.

      This is damn good. I normally skip breakfast when backpacking, but I always manage to make room for this on at least one day.

      Even as someone who doesn't normally eat breakfast, enjoy these. Taken on many backcountry trips.
