Back in the fall I bought two packages of Alpineaire Black Bart Chili from Amazon Prime. Today I decided to try one for lunch.
To prepared it, pour two cups of boiling water into the bag, mix, and then let sit for 10 - 12 minutes. Then mix it again before eating.
I let it sit for at least 12 minutes, mixed it up, and it looked like this:
It came out a bit soupier than I'd like. The texture was typical for reconstituted freeze dried meals. It was fairly spicy.
Because it was so soupy, after I ate half I tried adding some parched corn flour to it to thicken it a bit. Not recommended. I didn't care for the resulting texture.
Overall, I'd recommend it and will probably buy some more for my camping/emergency prep food stash.

Try adding a couple spoons of mashed potato flakes to desired thickness-much better consistency, less gritty.
