Beef Stroganoff

I rehydrated the Beef Stroganoff as instructed. Since I had this meal snow camping, I put the pouch in a cozy, and waited 15 minutes instead 10 minutes. Opened the pouch and what a great aroma. First tasting was perfect. Then I bit into the beef cube and disappointment. It was still crunchy. I stirred the Stroganoff and sealed it for another 5 minutes. Tried again but the beef cubes were still crunchy. The flavors and noodles are great, but the beef cube format is not good. Maybe if it was thinner or in strips, it might have worked. I would not buy this again despite the great flavors.

I haven’t had a terrible peak meal they’ve all been great especially the stroganoff!!

Peak makes some of the best meals either my wife or I have ever had on the trail!! The Beefy Strogey is by far their best meal and SO filling. Its hard to find meals that pack a good amount of protein and carbs while still tasting good, and Peak nailed it with this meal!!!! The huge mushroom pieces are fantastic and the texture of the meat is oh so good. We make ours with a touch less water than they recommend but other than that, OUTSTANDING!!!!

2019 was the first year we used Peak for our Elk hunts and they were a game changer in terms of stamina. Peak meals enabled great recovery day to day over the competition due to the high protein content. Huge difference over a 10 day physically demanding hunt, and Peak meals taste awesome in comparison!!

Great meal, tasted great and good ingredients! Only issue it took a bit longer than instructions to get cooked through.

Nothing like a hot beef stroganoff after a long, wet day on the mountain!

I keep hearing that Peak Refuel is a little more expensive. If you look at the amount of protein you are getting, it’s a much better value. It feels you up and tastes so much better. I am a big fan.

Probably the best pack meal going right now. The flavor is unbelievable. High protein, low sodium, and uses very little water yet rehydrates perfectly. If you haven’t tried this one I highly suggest you do. Make it for your kids or spouse and I guarantee they won’t know that you didn’t make it from scratch. It’s restaurant quality.

I tried the Stroganoff while on the PCT this summer. It is better then the stroganoff I have had in restaurants. My hiking partners said I was to expensive until they tasted it. I can’t wait for it to be back in stock.

All of you at PEAK really are amazing, so far I've only tried the Beef Stroganoff and if that's any indication of the peak you've reached then I'm sure that the rest of your products will not disappoint. You've taken freeze-dried meals to a whole new level with this one, it literally tastes like you've just cooked a real stroganoff at home with fresh sour cream and mushrooms, a perfect choice of pasta and nice chunks of beef, the only thing I add is fresh ground black pepper. Your choice of pasta noodles ensures they will be cooked, the mushrooms taste fresh, the beef tender with just the right amount of salt. I know you made this for backpackers with water being crucial so the amount is just enough, I use just a bit more to increase the sauce. I use your product as a great quick home meal and highly recommend it for emergencies, but if you're out there backpacking and at the end of your day? This will replenish you and you will be glad you chose PEAK. Thank you for making such a great product!

Hey you can actually see the beef in this meal hahaha, seriously though its damn good I had to wait to get this meal cuz it sold out fast but man it was worth the wait.
