Gourmet Freeze-Dried Meals Built for the Wild
Veteran-Owned. American-Made. World-Inspired.
Welcome to Backcountry Bistro, where we craft small-batch, gourmet freeze-dried meals designed specifically for hunters, hikers, and outdoor adventurers who demand real flavor and functional nutrition.
Founded by U.S. Army veteran Don Goode, our recipes are inspired by global flavors and tested by real outdoorsmen. Every pouch is packed with nutrient-dense, high-quality ingredients sourced mainly from trusted suppliers like Kroger.
Featured Meals & Snacks
- Beef Rotini alla Vodka — A hearty Italian-inspired classic for the trail.
- Biscuits & Gravy (Classic & Maple) — Down-home comfort made portable.
- Red Beans & Rice — Southern flavor packed with protein.
- Frizzys Freeze-Dried Fruits & Treats — Healthy snacks to fuel your adventure.
Our Story
Backcountry Bistro was born out of a simple question: “Why does backcountry food have to be bland and uninspired?” As a veteran and outdoor enthusiast, Don Goode set out to create meals that truly earn their place in your pack — meals that taste great, rehydrate easily, and fuel your adventures.
