Davyo Posted January 27, 2014 Report Share Posted January 27, 2014 What do you do for grub,I used to take sarnies,crisps,biscuits and a flask and eat as I go.I have lately been nocking of for lunch as I have stocked the 4x4 out with a stove and a load of cooking utensils.I have a little box with rape seed oil, herbs garlic ect.I like nothing better than taking a couple of fresh shot birds and flash frying the breasts in rape seed oil,garlic and soya sauce.Throw this into a fresh baguette with baby leaf lettuce.Or I sometimes do a little stir fry with woodpigeon and noodles, peppers and mushrooms.Also keep a healthy stock of beans,soups & pot noodles in the 4x4. Even made a little drop down bench to cook on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ego272 Posted January 27, 2014 Report Share Posted January 27, 2014 Goodness me pal, what else could one ask for , on wintery day and fresh shot pigeon on the stir fry. Good work and I am going to follow...)) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woodfordpigeon Posted January 27, 2014 Report Share Posted January 27, 2014 That's quite good and I have taken the bbq on the odd occasion but only if several are going on the same day. I find that its too much trouble stocking up and cleaning up the mess.If we are on an all day shoot the pigeon stop flying around mid day. So we head for mac Ds or a local restaurant. If the pigeon keep coming I don't stop to eat. But if your going to cook come shooting with me anytime. woodfordpigeon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davyo Posted January 27, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2014 (edited) I am quite organised,I usually buy stuff the day before if im taking mushrooms,peppers or anything thats fresh ext.But there is always a good stock of tins, pot noodles porridge and stuff.The 4x4 only a shooting bus so everthing is always left in it, stove pots & pans ext.I always boil another kettle an wash up after eating so nothing to do later, if I have someone shooting with me they always offer to wash up. It just makes the day a little better especially in the winter when we ferret.The lads will do a warren before lunch and I will pop back to the 4x4 and start putting lunch on ready for them comming back.Its become a part of the day the lads look forward to.Plus I get them to work better after a good meal.

TIGHTCHOKE Posted January 28, 2014 Report Share Posted January 28, 2014 In winter I will take a stove and cook but if there are lots of pigeons to shoot (which does happen occasionally) I keep to the shooting and eat later! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GRamsay Posted January 30, 2014 Report Share Posted January 30, 2014 I Cant eat a freshly shot bird, I,ve tried before, thought it sounded like a good idea at the time, but has the texture of a bit rubber and disnae taste much better either I find i have to hang all my birds and anything else i get to get a much better flavour.

fenboy Posted January 30, 2014 Report Share Posted January 30, 2014 I rarely take any food when shooting , just a flask of black tea or cold drink in summer . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thelongwayup Posted January 30, 2014 Report Share Posted January 30, 2014 (edited) I take a trangia, few bits of food, Tea bags, snack pot/pot noodle style things and plenty cup a soups. Can't beat a fresh hot drink on a cold day. Packs up to hardly anything too does a trangia in the bottom of the rucksack. Cup a soups weigh nothing same as pot noodles/pot pasta stuff. Normally two of us in the hide and for years my mate always seems to 'forget' his stuff and ends up eating half of what I take.....

Fatcatsplat Posted February 4, 2014 Report Share Posted February 4, 2014 3 sarnies (one for the dog) and a couple of bottles of water - The less gear i have to cart around the better. Rarely take a flask these days as they always seem to taint the contents. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
