Breakfast in the boat/blind

[aunt betty]

I like to get out early, early. I mean midnight. Set up the boat/blind and sleep in it until shooting time. I'll hang a coleman lantern on a tree branch up high so everyone can see I'm out in the hole.
I set an alarm clock for about 30-45 minutes prior to LST.
It goes off and I start cooking breakfast. I get a thrill knowing everyone within smelling range is going God Damn that guy...cuz they're hungry and cold.

I take the same thing most times. Six eggs, 1/4 pound of bacon, two slices of american cheese and 4 pieces of bread.
I cook the bacon and then do scrambled eggs in the grease left from cooking. I dump most of the grease back into the jar.
To finish I tear up the cheese and melt it into the eggs.
Cheesy scrambled eggs n bacon between two slices of bread.
Can do it in the dark.

NOW I went and made myself hungry.

That sounds delicious AB. One of my favorite things about duck hunting is eating. We've done bacon and eggs, sausage gravy, sautéed shrimp, jumbaliya, and whatever we think would hit the spot out there. My buddy found an old collapsible oven that we cooked biscuits and cinnamon rolls in. Talking about food in the duck blind makes me wish duck season would get here even sooner.

Fresh picked oysters for me. Usually on evening hunts though, raw oysters might not be the best thing for me first thing in the morning.

On the few hunts on Long Island I had, my fried would dig up little necks. Fresh oysters is so cool. We dont do much eating on Lake Ontario because we're too busy watching the weather. Switches on a dime.

Breakfast in the blind huh? Weird

if I ever hunt Lake Ontario I'll be cooking the whole time as it will most likely be my last meal

He's probably right. The map of known wrecks is astounding.

GKR gave me a camp stove from one of his units. I am not sure it will work out, but am intrigued by the idea of coffee and something like AB described.

Luckily for me, I am able to sleep in my own bed for most of my hunts. I dont see me sleeping in the boat...

I get up early and meet a KKK member somewhere, and then we commence to calling/shooting. Often times we are sitting in the mud or weeds somewhere.

But a comfy blind and stove will change some of that.

MB, I would really like if if you would start a thread about the wrecks of the great lakes. You and the other GL fellas have to remember how far inland I really am. I am fascinated by what you all take for granted. I have seen MI and Erie but never been on them.

My entire knowledge of the great lakes is The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald.

Zipper bag omelets are all I've ever done in the blind

[jehler]

Next time spearing I'll take some pics if the wrecks, we have a lot more here then Lake Ontario

[jehler]

Zipper bag omelets

sounds like something you get from boot

I wouldnt mine hearing about the stories and the weather, too.

Ha! Except this just upsets your stomach

[assateague]

Mine consists of whatever is left of the bag of chocolate donuts and coffee. Too much fancy in this thread.

[Feelin' Fowl]

The guy with fresh eggs at the house says omelets are fancy?

[assateague]

At the house, no. In the blind, yes.

Anything that can be cooked in a frying pan is fair game in my boat blind. BBQ, sausage and biscuits, choclate chip cookies, grilled cheese, soup etc/

Biscuits and chocolate chip cookies in a frying pan? I might need more that nutter butter bars and pb&j's this year!

Zactly! Goose sausage fajitas are hard to beat.

^ this.

When I go hunting, I bring along hunting related things. When I'm in the kitchen, I work on foodstuffs.

Can't imagine hauling all that crap out there and dicking around with it. I guess if you have a massive boat or a big pit blind you can make it work.

In a way, it would kind of ruin things for me.

who's the unlucky fucker that has to haul the propane and two burner camp stove for all that shit?

never cooked in the blind, we're already close to sinking the boat with all the other shit.

[Feelin' Fowl]

I'm thinking a mess kit and sterno might be enough for me.

Get a bigger boat

you all amuse me.

The stove will live in the boat. I will walk out to the boat with my gun, throw in a cooler with supplies, and head to the dock.

AT, you can sit there and eat stale doughnuts while I eat real food and drink sissy coffee.

Jarbo is a hell of a cook. We aint going hungry

Interesting to read how the unwashed masses make do. We civilized waterfowlers eat a light breakfast at the lodge before going forth to slay our birds and then return to the lodge for a Cajun feast called "brunch". (Guide pay sucks, but we eat well. Beats pee out of my Northern memories of whittling on cold smoked bills with pocket knives while hoping some of their relatives will fly by. Well, maybe...)

The stuff we carry fits in a small backpack. Then we have a small cooler for food and drinks. It's really not that much stuff.
