Questions about tallow

Yes .yes, I know theres other options BUT

I use it mostly for camp cooking, the shelf life and how it solidifies makes it ideal for my criteria.

BUT im trying to not carry a seasoning mix....Im eyeballing my garlic cloves and such wanting to mix some other flavors into the tallow itself, for probably little change happening, but im torn. Because i dont know how adding stuff like fresh sautéed/roasted garlic + herbs will effect its shelf life.

Seeing as its not like I carry a fridge with me and I just keep a small container inside my cookwear/mess kit...just kinda looking for feedback/ideas of how to go about and kinda what I can expect.

My reaction when we have to move again

To start, I moved approx 50jumps (the only time i have couriered my ship) to corp hq, hung around for a while collected space gravel, Corp vibes where funny as they shifted to pvp. Found new group, moved 30-40jumps again, hung around collecting gravel for a couple weeks- pvp corp ransomed the moons...we moved again to a rally location pre-null....another 40jumps...a month passes in waiting time for the move order for joining an alliance.(which note worthy route is pretty much a travel choke point through siege tactic front line to reach NS) now it would appear its time to move again here shortly for another 20-30jumps....BUT my omega is gonna run out beforehand.....gotta say theres times I hate being an orca main.

/s Reaaaal fun content this last 2months. /s

Highlight, I have a navy dread on the market. So thats neat, but lets be honest, those are slow sells because any smart dread main rarely uses them so replacements aren't very sought after.

I love the game but hate it, upside im good at flying from Point A to B.

Under-rated and under discussed- cooking oils/greases. My go to...beef tallow->

Got a couple jars from Costco, then acquired a small jar that I fill with it and throw into my bag, oils run the risk of leaking and butter goes bad.

​

I do have a site that I frequent/regularly go back to(private access up in the sticks) and my lil stashed veggie oil was running low so I needed to replace/refill figured id try something different.

Seent a couple pack systems.

Its not UL, but its comfortable, secure, and I still have space to spare.

​

The frame isnt for everyone, someone is bound to mention ALICE frames but the molle frame was more accessible- and I wasn't about to pay 200 for the actual erblestock frame, the base assembly(frame, shoulder+waist, and side panels) was just under 130ish if i remember correctly after slowly collecting over time. 60 for the frame then the rest was all here and there purchases when I could justify them.

​

The side panels are just some molle panels that a company was selling to the Tacti-cool campers who want a molle panel on a wagon/chair/table that they sold. I used 3, either side then a 3rd functions as a meat shelf.

​

The exterior straps hold the assembly inplace and prevents weight shifting+additional compression paired with the Packs integrated compression straps which 'also' securely hold it directly to the frame. Ngl....I could probably remove a couple of my straps-but on initial assembly I didnt have the erblestock main pack and they held the other one in place and took to much effort for me to want to remove them.

​

Don't mind the knife in the bottle pouch, that is just storage for not in use.

​

The waist belt pouch holds a compass, small flashlight, range finder, and a couple small things like a lighter/flint+steel for ease of access.

​

the side pouch houses my map, hunting card, and other bits and bobs I would only need for a quick stop when I do have to drop pack and think something over or take a break.

​

First aid pouch is self explanatory.

​

In my top flap, I got my cordage, headlamp, spare hand light, some fire starting gear, drink mixes.

​

Main compartment is sleeping gear+etc(warming layers, hammock, blankets...)

​

My biggest complaint, when the shoulder assembly straps get loose, it squeaks when moving 🤣😂🤣. Aside from that...well worth the time i put into it getting it put together, I hated this frame with my pack when I was in, now that im a nasty civvie again-i realized that I just didnt have my issued one fit correctly...so many hikes I look back on in regret of not taking the time to figure it out.

Bushcraft is 90% finding a solution for small issues in a silly way

Not really bushcrafting, but I needed a spot for my hat and im already in my hammock, like hell I was gonna get out and back in.

Megathron navy

Aside from being bait and l4 security...is there really any uses for a brawler set up for it?

I run 2 accounts one is skilled into ewar(mostly) that I recently pushed to fly the huginn.

Im naught much more than a humble miner, orca and a working alt, who loves the megathron(on paper) ive lost a few of the base ships, mined enough rocks to trade up for the navy issue mega.

While I have close to decades of game experience, im not one for pvp, I dabble. And always keep a BS for QRF...but as I watch the dust gather on my bs(because its never in any pvp doctrine)

I want to fly it, I want to get kill marks for it but have yet to actually find a chance...how should I start using this fancy space paper weight?
