Mountain House Beef Stroganoff - 2 Serving Entree

Beef Stroganoff - 2 Serving Entree

There's nothing like a little comfort food after a long day of hiking. Mountain House's Freeze Dried Beef Stroganoff meal for two is just like mom used to make only it's lighter, tastier, and well, you have to make it on your own. It comes in a foil package that stands up on its own for easy eating and cooking.

Bottom Line: Because you can't bring mom on every backpacking trip.

Talk shop with all the gear freaks out there: ask 'em questions, upload/browse photos, and give your 2¢.

I'm currently working overeas and our meal choices are limited at best. I have ordered several Mt. House meals and I have to say that this one is the best overall. It's about as close to a "real" meal as I've had in a while and completely fills me up without making me feel too full. Highly recommend this for any type of trip or environment. A++++!

The Best of Mountain House

By: Backcountry.com Sponsored Athlete
July 6, 2011

Of all the Mountain House meals I've had the privilege (or punishment) of eating, this is my favorite. It's tasty enough that you might actually forget you're eating freeze dried food. As with most freeze dried food, the serving size is deceiving. I mean 12g of protein and 310 calories, for dinner? On a hiking trip? There's no way that keeps you going. I usually eat one to myself, or bring some instant rice and beans to stretch the meal for two people.

There's some nutritional information on Mountain House's website: http://www.mountainhouse.com/nutr.cfm
The beef stroganoff is listed there as well.

Let it set a little longer than the package says. They are noodles you want them soft. Good flavor
Do "NOT" eat to often space them out;you will get gas.

Beef Stroganoff really tastes good..!!

By:
January 20, 2011

I tried lots of freeze dried food over the years and Mountain House beef stroganoff is one of my favorites. Mountain House meals are quick and easy to prepare, and if you add some extra water with some instant mashed potatos, well you have your self a serious meal..!!

When I carry Mountain House meals I repackage them to save a litle weight and ziplock bags pack neater than the original packaging does. With ziplock bags I can squeeze out all of the air, so they take up less space in my pack.

Marmot Approved

By:
March 20, 2008

The Romanov's might not have approved but when you're hungry, almost anything tastes good including this version of the classic 1861 dish. Even the marmots seemed to have enjoyed it. After gorging themselves on my backpack, they still had some room left for the MH Beef Stroganoff meal that I didn't finish. True story!

Out of all the Mountain House meals, this one seems to fill me the most. It's not my favorite for taste, but it's not bad. You can't go wrong with most of Mountain House meals.

By:

sometimes when I eat these I feel like I am at a restaurant but maybe because I just hiked 12 miles with a 38 pound pack. This one is my favorite. not quite 2 servings but I just bring along some instant potatoes or veggies or eat it myself.

Probably one of the better tasting meals that MH offers and maybe one of the most popular. I've consumed several different types of entrees from MH and this ranks right up there. Great texture and flavor for a freeze dried meal. Boil the water until it's almost rolling out and pour in package quickly and safely as possible. And based on conditions and altitude, make sure to let sit for a minute or two longer than the instructions call for. Enjoy!

Stroganoff is my favorite flavor. Consider repackaging to save weight. At the end of a long day treking, climbing, & clawling; your body is calling out for the calories. You'll swear the Stroganoff is the best thing you've ever tasted. I'm a big active guy and I eat two servings for dinner. One serving makes a pretty good breakfast too.

I am on search and rescue, and this is my favorite meal to bring with me. It uses quite a bit of water, but is worth it. Perfect after hours on the trail. Definately better than the other options!

This is among our favorite Mountain House meals. Very tasty. We like to take along little parmesan cheese packets and pepper to add too it. Let it rehydrate a bit longer than suggested though, or the meat may be crunchy.

Filling and tasty

By:
May 25, 2009

Obviously, this is not gourmet, but on the trail it certainly hits the spot. It is actually tastier than most other freeze-dried meals I have eaten, and is very filling. The 2 serving pack could be a big meal for one person, or a meal for two smaller or less-hungry people. I have found that 2 2-serving packs work well for 3 adults.

Hits the spot and easy to cook

By:

Makes a satisfying meal. Just boil water and dump it in the foil package. Wait a few minutes and serve. Noodles have nice bulk and the flavor is pretty good for freeze dried. The teen age boys in our group gave it a thumbs up. Only draw back is the carrying out the packaging.

The standard

By: Backcountry.com Employee
June 11, 2010

Good stuff, reliable for energy restoration. Not hard on the stomach. It is a 2 Serving size ...but we all know this is perfect for one hungry person after a long hard day on the trail. Lots of sodium but I needed it on my hike-thru backpacking trip in Zion Nat'l Park, the desert can take it out of ya. You might want to bring along a french bread baguette, break it up into bite size chunks and throw it in the bag a few minutes after you add the hot water. It really adds to the meal. Enjoy!

Mountain House food is the best tasting out there. The beef stroganoff is great. My wife and 2-year-old gobbled it up. It truly doesn't seem to anything but fresh made. You’ll like it.

I always bring beef stroganoff on my backpacking trips. If for some strange reason I don't eat the meal while out on a trip, it is always a thrill cooking it in the luxury of my apartment :)

Best freeze dry dinner you could ask for. It is nice and filling after a long day of hiking. It is really tasty too, it's my favorite of all these dinners. I like to put a little hot sauce and pepper in there and it makes for one wonderful mountain dinner
