Back Country Cuisine Roast Chicken – Family is a large-serve freeze-dried main from one of the most established names in the Australian and New Zealand outdoor scene. Back Country Cuisine has been fuelling hikers and expedition groups for decades, earning a reputation for reliable meals that perform in demanding conditions.
This Family serve delivers classic roast chicken flavour in a hearty, savoury profile designed to feed multiple people or meet higher group energy needs. Simply add hot water directly to the pouch, stir thoroughly, seal and allow to stand until fully rehydrated. It settles into a substantial, spoonable meal suited to shared camp dinners on multi-day trips.
Lightweight for its portion size, shelf-stable and backed by a long track record on Australian and New Zealand trails, Back Country Cuisine Roast Chicken – Family is a dependable group option when familiarity and performance both matter.
