What is freeze-drying and how is it different from dehydrating?
Freeze-drying removes moisture at very low temperatures, preserving more flavor, nutrition, and texture than dehydrating. This means our meals taste better and rehydrate faster for your backcountry needs.
How long do Backcountry Bistro meals last?
Our meals have a shelf life of 12–18 months when stored in a cool, dry place, making them perfect for long trips and emergency preparedness.
Are your meals gluten-free or allergen-friendly?
We are actively developing gluten-free and allergen-aware options based on tester feedback. Every product includes clear allergen labeling for your safety.
How do I prepare the meals?
Preparation is simple: add hot water to the pouch, stir, seal, and wait 8–10 minutes. For detailed instructions, scan the QR code on your package or visit our Recipes & Preparation page.
