Comments about Mountain House Chili Mac With Beef - 2 Servings:
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.

Comments about Mountain House Chili Mac With Beef - 2 Servings:
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.

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 - 2 Servings:
One of my favorite back country meals! I usually get more than one per trip.
Very easy to prepare, but if you don't want chili soup, then cut back to about 1 1/2 or so cups of water.

Comments about Mountain House Chili Mac With Beef - 2 Servings:
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 - 2 Servings:
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

Comments about Mountain House Chili Mac With Beef - 2 Servings:
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...

Comments about Mountain House Chili Mac With Beef - 2 Servings:
I had this years ago when I first started backpacking and it remains my favorite. We recently had this on a long desert backpacking trip in Utah, and it was enough for the two of us after a long day of hiking (we're both light eaters). We added freeze-dried tomatoes and it made the meal even better. I have tried to eat this at home as a regular meal and it wasn't good, but for some reason it's always really good in the backcountry.

Comments about Mountain House Chili Mac With Beef - 2 Servings:
I cooked this guy up in about 1 minute with my Jetboil, and used the recommended amount of water while going on a local campout with my friend. Unfortunately I was kind and gave him the first few scoops. His serving was fine but mine was uncooked at the bottom. While I can accept that it was human error, you may consider adding a bit more water to these when you cook, and also make sure you stir, shake, or mix it thoroughly. All in all I would eat them again.

Comments about Mountain House Chili Mac With Beef - 2 Servings:
Perfect for two gerbils but not enough for two hikers. Saying that, add 1/2 cup less water, a touch tabasco and it's perfect! As I said, I just bought two more from REI for my next trip
