Sandwiches up to 70 degrees

[guitarpreston]

Last year I made some bagel sandwiches with salami and cheese, vacuum sealed them, and froze them. The day I left, I tossed them in my cooler full of ice and would grab one when I headed out from the truck in the morning. This year, I am contemplating spiking out and won't have the cooler. Temp range was/is supposed to be mid-30s to 70. How long would you take something that's perishable like that for?

Multiple days. Just bring the mayo in seperate mayo packs. I have done this for a few years.

Ew, honey mustard all the way.

Need Help With Alternatives to Dehydrated Meals (Looking at Smoked Cheese & Hard Salami)

After a few years now I've come to the conclusion that dehydrated meals don't sit well with my gut. I've been looking at alternatives and am open to any suggestions but have some questions about smoked cheese and salami bagels specifically. First off, not having any experience with these items...

rokslide.com

I started asking the same question last summer. That is a link to those conversations.

Bagel may dry out, but not if vacuum sealed, gtg
Salami, cured, gtg
Cheese, may get a bit melted/slimy, but overall gtg
Honey/mustard also gtg

Are you putting Mayo on sandwiches?? Not advised.

That’s just life advice

Your sandwiches will be fine.

I found a bagel/bacon/honey/peanut butter sandwich in my pack like two weeks after a week+ trip. I was hungry, the bagel was pretty smashed, but it was alright.

The bagel is fine. 7-10 days they may get a little mold depending on the brand.

Salami is good to go- I never worry.

Hard cheese keeps just fine for me in conjunction with the salami.

Spicy mustard and pickles are the garnish that bring it all together.

How do you do the pickles? Pack them separate? Vacuum seal them with everything?

 

[feanor]

Yeah just double bag or triple bag them. Their pickled in vinegar- I don’t worry about them at all.

Yeah I was just thinking about transport and not having juice soaking into sandwich (as I have vacuum sealed bagel sandwiches all together).

 

[feanor]

Yeah to clarify- picked in separate bag from everything. Soggy sandwich is a hunt killer.

As long as the meat is cured( pepperoni, salami, capicola, and prosciutto) it’s gtg , just keep any condiments separate from the bread and meat
We where in Alaska for 14 days and took pepperoni, salami, capicola, and prosciutto + Libby lunchables ( canned ham , turkey & chicken salad)
Cheese last a long time out of the sun
Individual packets of mayo & mustard indefinitely

Packaged separately a bagel in a vac pack bag, sliced spam individual slices, hard cheese of some type, and mustard packs or flat bread like a pita separate packs of peanut butter and jelly perhaps throw in a banana to slice up also you can make up your chosen sandwich take a light break perhaps do some glassing.

I did this with Kings Hawaiian rolls instead of bagels this summer backpacking in Yosemite. I used Cabot individual packed cheddar slices. From the day I left the east coast to the last day on trail was 6 days. The rolls/sandwiches got super flat in the vacuum sealer. I was sick of salami by day 2 and even still doesn’t sound appetizing, but they held up great and didn’t seem to spoil at all.
