Precook and freeze your proteins. Can even do this with the eggs. Will take the necessary stove requirements down to almost nothing. I managed to eat gourmet meals in the woods for a week this way using just my camp stove. When I say camp stove, I mean a stove that fits into a small pan and runs on white gas. ie, here I am making some donuts in the woods for the family Heating up sous vide chicken tacos Making pancakes with wild picked berries 3 minute fry on sous vide breakfast sausage It was SUPER easy. Before the sous vide I did it all fresh. Now I sous vide and freeze our meals and just have to flash fry them. I do a lot with a pan in the fire as well. As for what you should do, again it needs to come down to exactly what you plan to make and then I can tell you what I'd do.

Overthinking it IMO. Locks keep honest people away, thieves have other ways of entry. Your back door is super private and ultra easy for someone to just blast through if they want. I'd get a Google or wireless lock and call it a day.

Thanks dude!! What sort of chile peppers are your jam? We have all sorts of Hungarian Paprika over here....but I'd like to know what you consider a pepper.

Do you own a sous vide?

And to be fare until I posted that they were $550....but when I looked I realized it wasn't $300 more.

The grass isn't greener where it seems to be always. Don't be rash, but start looking. Hard time to find work as covid fucked some shit up.

Priorities. $400 for a 3401, $250 for the G21. I realize it is only $150, but ...

I'd like to know what is in your goulash.

Really depends of course on what you are cooking. Share the menu and I can help make it easier.

I use an MSR multifuel stove and a frying pan in addition to the fire pit.

So my pad setup is all for a flex and the compounds and such I have. Bought it assuming one day I would buy a Flex, but since he has one I haven't.

My buddy has a flex. I just hate driving an hour each way to grab it. I should own one anyways....just don't think I need the flex. I'll hate it if the Griot's is way inferior though since I've used his.

My rotary is a Northern Tool...so probably the same Chicago Electric that HF sells for a similar $50 or so. I have cut my other boat with it a few times and am competent enough and have the right pads...but for the next 20 years I am going to use something a few times a year so it is time for a real tool. Not Flex quality though as I just won't do that for how it will be used.

By help, I mean I'd be your bitch for day.

If we were closer I'd pay you to do it, provide beer and help
