Building that fire was a work of art. All from a woodsman who has honed his craft.

Thanks Matt. Loved the video. You have a way of reminding me of: When I used to go to the woods. When I used to camp in the woods. When I used to cook in the woods. When I used to eat in the woods. OMG, WHEN did my life end?!

THANK YOU so much for your time and interest! I appreciate you tuning in. PLEASE SUBSCRIBE, LIKE and COMMENT if you will! If you are interested, I have links to my affiliate pages and all things "Black Hat Bushcraft" in the description box above. Take care!

I love watching people camp in the snow to see how they keep warm. Im from Australia but also preparing for a pole shift 😀 great to watch people from different geographical areas. What we are familiar with may not be the new normal.

Every time I get out in the beauty of creation I am compelled to give thanks to the Lord for the opportunity and strength to do so!

Hi Matt. I just finished dinner, but my mouth was still watering! Great video. I loved that you took time to give thanks. It sounds like you’re busier than ever. Please make sure your family is your top earthly priority. I’ll be here when you you get around to making another video.

Time is a precious commodity. We just don't get enough of it.

Always fun to watch you cook in the woods.

First I want to say all of you guys from Self-Reliance are AMAZING! I'm not in a position to attend any of y'all's survival classes and I want to say a big thank you for sharing your vast knowledge base with those of us that's broke for whatever reason. I have learned so much from watching videos from all of SRO's instructors that are here on KZfaq, including the legend himself, Face Canterbury! Thank you, from one North Carolinian to another

That's a beautiful area you are in today. I always enjoy your vids. They are informative and relaxing.

Thank you Matt Bacon and bush craft I’m speechless to your community love and respect from Boston

Nice looking chunk of rich lighter you found. Good luck with the time management with small kids . Crackling fire and sizzling bacon is a hard combination to beat . Enjoyed watching. Have a great evening

Matt, thanks for the great example of being thankful to the one that made the woods!

Looking forward to more of your videos. Stay safe.

Mmmmmmmmm bacon and coffee...those are truly the best things about any meal anywhere! Anothe great video and update for BHB!!!!

The Corporal sent me, Im from Brooklyn looking forward to your stuff. Peace and Blessings to you and your Family, I wish you Success and Joy.

Bacon and coffee. It gets no better than that!

I think your do a great job! The perfect knife is the one you have in hand

Thank you Matt! Enjoyed your video and the importance of time in the woods to recuperate & unwind…..with Bacon & Onions!

Super video Matt! Keep up the awesome work. Pete from Minnesota.

Thank you I really like the knife. I always look forward to seeing your videos.

A hot meal like that is always the highlight of any trip in the woods Matt. If we could ever get by without sleep, we'd have all kinds of time for videos brother. You are doing great sir!

Thank you brother. I enjoyed watching.

I really like that WC knife design, Kinda like a Kansbal but more of the forward taper going back on the blade further. Looks like a winner.

Great stuff!!!!!!! ABSOLUTELY love it

Great attitude, great presentation,stay in the woods n be alert!

Great demonstration of bush crafting skills Matt ! Proper hand ax usage, use of a twin tree to process firewood, the right way to get dry wood under cold wet conditions and possum mentality. I especially like that you save the knife blade till it's needed, and you covered your raw food while you prepped it. Wood ash, bird droppings and bugs are not good eats. Thanks for the vid, may you and yours be blessed this year. A little pray of thanks is always helpful.

Sitting here watching and enjoying another one of your cooking videos with a bowl of Turkey and sausage gumbo.

An instructive and mouth watering demonstration of winter cookery.

Went out today and played in the snow. My video didn't go well because of low temps but I did have fun. Got to at least take pics for Kal's Treks and Trails F.B page. Awesome video my friend

Grt video. I like the knife. WC are grts knives. Looking forward to more videos but definitely understand about family & time restraints. Ur videos are interesting & informative

You sir are very blessed to get out in the woods and to enjoy yourself and to eat good at that . Love your channel. Thanks very much for your hard work to get this good videos out to us.

Heading out to cook some venison, peppers, onions and some rice in the woods. Inspired by you!!

Very nice my friend 🤠

Thanks and you be safe as well, God bless 🙏😎

Great seeing you at Gathering!

good stuff! yes. bacon and coffee.

Love your choice of music.

Nice outing Matt. The bacon with onions looked really good, never made that combination before. I really like the design of your knife also! Take care. 👍🔥🥓🔪

very nice video very informative more power to your channel stay safe and god bless...from phillippines...

I too am a knife guy ive got several my last knife that I purchased us called a japa knife made in Japan and its called a dragon blade its scary sharp out of the box and its very tuff ive used to split small chunks of wood to burn in my fire it passed the test and I so enjoy your videos and I look forward to each one I thank you for the time ya put onto them I learn something new from each one so stay safe God bless and take care I also like how ya take time to say thanx to God before each meal I don't see people doing that any more 👍

Matt, another fun video! Wish you all the best in 2022 and very much look forward to what you bring us.

Mmm fatwood. I'm only halfway through the video and already I want a fire and pine needle tea. Oh and there is bacon... Dang now I want bacon too. Lol as usual excellent work. It is always a pleasure to sit by the fire with you.

I love your videos. Keep making them, I always learn something.

Old timers here would carry bacon in wet newspaper to keep it fresh in the hot weather

The black hat bush blade will be a great companion to my larger batoner. I await there arrival. :)

I love watching your videos!

I have 3 knives I use in the woods these days. I have a small one on my belt, a bigger one on my belt and a big knife which is my chopper. That one I carry in my hand for the backyard camp or if I take it on a long trip, I just have a belt over my shoulder to strap it to. My small knife is the Morakniv Companion. My 7" blade for my belt is a Schrade SCHF37. And my big one (10" blade) is a Schrade SCHF45. I don't usually carry both Schrade knives at the same time. Mostly my big one is for the backyard woods where I have my _at home_ camp. And for a trip I'd take the 7" blade instead of the 10" blade due to weight and carry comfort. It depends how far I'll be walking into the woods... the location. But I always bring my Mora Companion (backyard or deep woods trip).

I just got a WC blackbird in today. I'm beyond impressed. I might have to get your knife too. Pathfinder, WC , and Morakniv are my top knife makers.

Enjoyed this video🙂👍

I am a new subscriber thanks to Shout Out by Shawn Kelly. I appreciate your acknowledgement of God in your video.

YUM! I love your cooking videos!

Bacon Bacon Bacon.... Fatwood and bacon.. Channel should make a perfume.. Would drive us guys crazy...lol

Love watching your videos

Thanks Matt, good stuff as usual (I like that you carry a sidearm too 👍). Just secured my intermediate class for April, looking forward to it!

Oh, that looks so good, my mouth is watering. Thankyou

Good work Sir!

Corporaks corner sent me here!

God bless!

Looking forward.to. Seeing your WC knife, I have several of his knives already maybe yours will be next.

Good job Matt, God Bless

Another fantastic video!

Nice one fella, great little film and I'll be trying bacon n onions next time I'm out n about n definitely a coffee or two to wash it down All the best from England, Rick n Billydog 👍

Knife review in your creation.. looks good.. looking forward for a review.

Great video! As always, you are both interesting and informative. I am a knife guy too, and I really like the looks of that WC knife. Gotta agree with you on the bacon and coffee. 👍👍

Nice video and the bacon & onions look wonderful. I heard the other day that bacon is the "duct tape" of the food world. Anything you wrap in it turns out spectacular. I like the look of that wooden spoon.

Love all you do. and nice looking knife

Love these outdoor cooking vids. Have a great day Sir!

Your videos are always on point!

I really enjoy watching you and Kelley, it's fun informative and it makes me want to go out and do what I have been watching y'all do and enjoy it so much, thank you for putting your self out there and sharing, God bless my friend.

Great information and enlightening

Thank you Matt, great video! Keep ‘em coming!

Thanks bro!

Really looking forward to the knife. Sign me up for one.

Great video Matt. Congrats on the knife! It's a beauty!

Great video

Thanks Matt, it's always good to see your videos. Wishing you success this year and every year. Looking forward to your next video.

Another great video brother

The knife looks great bro

Love this! It truly is magical on a snowy morning in the woods! Just back from a week in Nevada, mountain peaks all covered with snow!

Hey Matt, great video 👌 I love to see you doing those things in the winter forest. There is always something to learn, but this time there were also some moments of chilling out in the woods 😀 Greetings from Germany 🌲👋🌳

Got yourself a new sub mate. Like the shows. Greetings from Australia.

Congratulations on the your new knife design! That's Awesome! Great video as usual Matt! We always enjoy your outdoor cooking series too!

I am a new subscriber. I have watched your cooking videos on the SRO channel and a few of your videos on your channel. I subscribe to Corporal's Corner, Ranger Fieldcraft and Survival and Dave's channels as well. You all put out good quality information and each of you bring your own twist to the subject matter. I like the bacon and onion combo. Never thought about that. Looking forward to catching up on your channel.

Just want you to know....the Corporal sent me over.

The corporal af recommended you, good video hope to see you again 👍

Nice Video, Matt. From the start to cooking, I thought to myself, the classic bushcraft approach. I like it. Thanks for sharing your goals for this year. Yet don't forget your priorities: faith, family, and close friends; everything else will work itself out. I am a subscriber to your channel and the cooking series you host. You're doing good.

Ought to try taters & onions & bacon!

I think this dish would make good Corporals Corner Bait. 😆 🤣

Bacon and coffee sure are staples in the Bushcraft community. Looked delicious. Congratulations on the knife Matt well done looks like a great one for sure!! Great tips in the video as always. Still waiting for the day when I can meet you in person and take classes but until then I'll keep tuning in and learning. Thank you brother for all you do. God bless you and yours

Just found ya and there you are eating my kind of meal. Wife doesn’t go for it very well though. Anyway, got you Sub’d now along with that kitchen one. Enjoyed this here one Thanks for the share

I love my WC Knives and am looking forward to yours as well. Any idea on when they will be available?

MATT enjoyed this video and the food, I add red potatoes cut small so there cook quicker, and I am a subscriber, so keep'em coming

I bet that snow just absorbs the sound. We don't get that here in Florida.

Forgot the cheese. Lol. I watch both channels and follow on FB.

👍🇺🇸great job Matt,heard about u through Dave Canterbury,your breakfast looks delicious, especially outside around a 🔥,great video Matt. I really like your coffee cup and spoon,did u make them.

Great job on the bacon is that a lodge skillet? Keep up the great videos very informative.

Meal? Not yet, but just made another pot of coffee, and that is a good thing. Was the Ruger I glimpsed a BH or SS? The grips sort of threw me, but I did have a larger set like that once upon a time on mid-sized BH. I too am looking forward to more on that Black Hat Bush Blade, it looks very interesting. I'm not going anywhere. I like the 'kinder gentler' bushcraft vibe over here; its sort of more relaxing until it ain't.

Always interesting. Appreciate your God Bless at the end of your videos. Watching other outdoors enthus, some seem to encourage weapons for personal protection yet I don’t remember you mentioning self protection when in the woods. Any suggestions?

Another great video. Curious as to what side arm you were carrying.
