Comments about Mountain House Chili Mac With Beef For Two:
Had this on my most recent 2 day backpack trip. Very light weight, easy to make, tasty, and satisfying. Although there were more beans, beef, and sauce than noodles, it was still yummy and a product I would use again. I would make it with less than 2 cups of water, maybe 1 and 1/2 cups. A bit watery with the entire two cups.

After hiking all day, this is an easy and delicious meal. Probably not enough for 2 hungry people, but plenty for 1 starving hiker.
Next time I will leave it boil for another few minutes. I think the price is reasonable, if you can afford REI, you can afford Mountain House.
Hey, when you're out in the wild, spend some money and get the best. Happy Trails...

Another one of our favorites...really good flavor. As with the others we let it sit a little longer than it says to.

Comments about Mountain House Chili Mac With Beef For Two:
I've taken this meal on almost every backpacking trip it's hands down the best Mountain House offers. Great tasting pasta, chili meat and beans! Having chili mac on the trail will keep you full and satisfied. I'm an average sized guy and I can easily pound a whole meal myself. Feeding 2 off of this meal is possible, but once you cook it you'll want it all for yourself.

Bought this for a weekend at Perdenales State Park (btw, great place to go caching). I concur with not using the full 2 cups. However, it was cold when we went so the soupy-ness was just right.
if you are doing any type of hiking or physical activity do not expect this to satisfy two people. however, if its just for one...dinner is SERVED!
on another note...i liked this over the beef strog b/c it seemed to have more flavor.

Comments about Mountain House Chili Mac With Beef For Two:
I had this meal after a long 10 mile trip in Desolation Wilderness. I ate this meal by myself and it was just enough to feed my tired famished body. I can't imagine this is enough to feed two hungry adults after a long day of backpacking, but to each their own. This meal is delicious, just make sure you stir it well to get all the powder at the bottom. My 2 backbacking buddies who were both eating ramen were both shocked at how delicious it was. Satisfactory indeed and one of the best freeze dried meals I've eaten

Tried this for the first time while backpacking. Tastes just like chilli.. GOOD chilli. One of the better Mountain House meals (most are good, but this one is great).
Stains easily though, be careful what you get it on.

Comments about Mountain House Chili Mac With Beef For Two:
The single serve chile mac is my all time favorite. Yummy with a little spice to it. The strange thing is that this product, along with the mac and cheese (also very tasty} was nice and thick in the single/16 oz pouch that our fellow hiker ate but was watery in the 20 oz size. Followed the instructions exactly, so the next time we make the larger size would use less water. The flavor though is perfect.

This meal was delicious. I eat a lot of food, but the 2 person meal really was enough for two people. Very easy to prepare and it tasted good enough that I would eat it at home if it was cheaper.
