AlpineAire Pepper Beef with Rice

The rice needed more time to cook than the 10-12 minutes suggested, but after re-sealing the bag for another 7-10 minutes approximately, the rice was no longer crunchy. Overall, a descent backpacking meal.

Just eat it.. you're in the mountains.

Disclaimer: all my food reviews will be after I've been out in the middle of nowhere for a few days, mostly eating bars, so anything hot is going to be the best meal of my life.
I'd recommend letting it sit with hot water for an extra 5 minutes at least to make sure everything gets cooked.

i thought this was a good fast meal i had no problem with the rice just don't use too much water or you will end up with soup.. will get again

This was my second AlpineAire meal and I wish it was better. The rice didn't fully cook and I had to finish this guy off in a pot with some water.

After supplemental cooking the food was alright. Not amazing, but I wolfed it down because I was hungry.

I like AlpineAire but will, be staying away from rice based meal because this didn't fully cook in the 10-12 minutes suggested.
