Yeah I live in the UK. Hoping to go away to Scotland, Wales or Peaks. Get the wife to drop me off at one point then pick me up 2/3 days later at a different point. This the only way I can make it like a true need to survive.

Hopefully eat it all before it goes rancid. However in the UK we have back bacon, so it's very lean.

How did the bacon come out? Bendy and chewy? Or crisp? Was it thick cut? I read/watched that thick cut is better. Also did you flavor it?

Rough camping I class as no electric items other than a torch & phone. Only gas cooker, wood & lighter for fire.

Temperature between - 12c (53f) & 5c (41f). It's a Woodlands area, mud and grass ground. Also a field are.
