Meat Tarp Shelter Combo? What do you use?

Hoping primary use is meat tarp, and shelter in a pinch.

Thanks!

I carried a couple pillow cases and a 5x7 nylon tarp. Put meat in pillow cases and used tarp to help warm me up after got soaked in the cold - sat there with tarp around me and small fire.

I use the hyperlite ground cloth, weighs under 4 oz

I prefer not to use my shelter as a meat tarp. It’s one more thing to clean and get back into my pack and it’s a critical piece of equipment. I prefer to use contractor garbage bags or painters plastic and just throw it away.
