Go-To Hunting Snacks

Vienna sausages, Capitans Wafers cheese crakers, jerky

If you’re packing it in, you obviously want light weight and nutrient dense.

Even when I’ve been on low carb diet, I make sure I fuel my hikes with some carbs (I learned that the hard way.) I’m probably going a little healthier this year, but some of my favorite mountain snacks in the past have been dried bananas/Golden Graham cereal and gummy bears/smarties. I would keep them in my hip pouch and eat them to fuel a big hike.

I just finished freeze drying a first batch of Heather snacks (some will mix in with meals) to take to Utah next week.


(Avocado, bananas, sweet potatoes, apples, mushrooms, beets)

I’ll be prepping some meals and a few additional snacks this week.

Peanut butter crackers, venison summer sausage and crackers or Vienna sausages and crackers. Trail mix, candy that doesn't...

Trader Joe's was made for good hunting snacks ... dried fruits, cashews, and I always take a pack of Norwegian crispbread on trips when I'm gone for 2 or more days living out of a pack.
And bite-sized Snickers go with me every time.

I like the protein type bars, different flavors and individually wrapped looking at some nature valley ones right now on shelf. FYI I carry baby wipes in zip locks not TP, wipes and cleans.....

I have one blind that is very large, sometimes I'll spend all day/night in it. It sets up on a big "shelf" on the side of a hill, so you can drive right up close behind it, and the critters can't see the truck, making it easy to drop off a small cooler with food. I keep a little propane stove, and a small skillet in there. When my son was little we would make grilled cheese sandwiches to pass the time, and snack on. A couple times though, we made "Triple Doubles"! A triple double is basically a grilled cheese with 2 slices of cheese, 2 slices of fried ham, and 2 fried eggs. It requires an ice cold red diamond sweet tea, or Dr Pepper, to wash down, and generally quickly followed by a nap.

Water while on the stand.

That’s actually a pretty good idea. Toilet paper just deteriorates over time, I’ve noticed.

Just water in the tree stand

Bagel with peanut butter mixed with butter and honey with a couple pieces of bacon. Vac seal them. Plenty of carbs and calories.
