That was the Northern Highlands American Legion State Forest in WI.

A decent chain of lakes with campsites along the lakes chain. It's where I go between real trips.

I was hoping that's where you were! It's easily accessible for me, and close to my N. WI cottage. Where did you put in? I have maps.

There are captions below each picture.

My dough was some bisquick, flour, a pinch of baking soda and a heaping Tbs of dry milk. I never really measure it out. I just carefully and slowly add water to make a thick pliable dough.

The veggies (potatoes, which help thicken, peas, corn etc.)were dehydrated in a ziplock with some powdered chicken stock. I add water and let hydrate a few hours before cooking.
The chicken was from a pouch and added right before cooking.

50/50 heat ratio top and bottom, but I did it gently. It took 40 minutes.

it IS as good as it looks. Enjoy.

how much bisquick to how much flour?

where did you find powdered chix stock or did you use bouillon?

thanks

2/3 bisquick to 1/3 flour is what I use. I found the powdered chicken stock (powdered boullion) in the local grocery store. I knew that brand and it wasn't as salty as the traditional cubes. I add about a Tbs of the powder to the bag of dehydrated veggies.

Every pot pie I've made comes out looking like that one. I thought it was just time that I took pics. As long as you go slow and easy cooking it, it comes out good. 40 minutes is really not a long time to cook something on na layover day or even a regular one night evening at camp.

This looks great. What does the 50/50 heat ratio mean. Did you use a backpacking oven to cook this or just a pan with a lid?
