Peak Refuel Homestyle Chicken & Rice Freeze-Dried Meal

Peak Refuel Homestyle Chicken & Rice is a freeze-dried camp meal built around real white chicken, long-grain rice, carrots, and a creamy mushroom-cheddar sauce: 40 grams of protein per pouch, ready in 10 minutes with one cup of boiling water. The sealed pouch carries a 10-year shelf life, making it a practical choice for both trip planning and long-term emergency food storage. Sold as a single two-serving pouch weighing 5.15 oz net.

Real Ingredients, Not Fillers

Peak Refuel Homestyle Chicken & Rice uses cooked diced seasoned chicken white meat rather than textured vegetable protein or artificial meat substitutes. Freeze-drying locks in the shape, texture, and nutritional value of each ingredient, so the chicken and vegetables rehydrate into a recognizable meal rather than a uniform paste. For a buyer who has eaten their way through flavorless backcountry food before, that distinction matters at the end of a long day.

Minimal Prep, Minimal Gear

Preparation requires only 8 oz of boiling water and 10 minutes of stand time. No pot to wash, no separate bowl needed. Boiling a smaller volume of water means less fuel burned and less time waiting at camp or on the trail. The resealable zip pouch doubles as the cooking vessel, so the only cleanup is folding and packing out the empty bag.

Shelf Life That Matches Long-Range Planning

The sealed Homestyle Chicken & Rice pouch carries a certified 10-year shelf life. That span makes it practical to stock in a vehicle kit, a go-bag, or a pantry alongside other emergency supplies without rotating it out every season. Made and packaged in the USA.

Who This Is For and Isn't

Common Questions

How much water does this meal require, and does it need to be boiling?

Peak Refuel Homestyle Chicken & Rice requires exactly 8 oz (1 cup) of boiling water added directly to the pouch. The pouch is then sealed and left to stand for 10 minutes before eating. Cold or warm water will not rehydrate the freeze-dried ingredients properly.

How many people does one pouch feed?

Each Homestyle Chicken & Rice pouch contains two servings, with a half-pouch counted as one serving. For a single hungry hiker or overlander after a full day out, one pouch is typically a complete meal.

Does this meal contain real chicken or a meat substitute?

Homestyle Chicken & Rice uses cooked diced seasoned chicken white meat. The ingredient list does not include textured vegetable protein or other meat substitutes.

What allergens are present in this pouch?

Homestyle Chicken & Rice contains milk and wheat. Buyers with sensitivities or allergies to either ingredient should not purchase this product.

How long does the sealed pouch stay shelf-stable?
