Guns/supplies/tips for surviving SHTF or WROL?

Question by ♘ Vader: Guns/supplies/tips for surviving SHTF or WROL?
Please give web links or book titles for SHTF or WROL preparation.

We live in an affluent neighborhood 20-30 miles N-NE of downtown Dallas. Our daughters are living in campus housing in Austin (200 miles away) and Stanford (1,700 miles away).

For a middle-age couple and 2 daughters in college, what would be the minimum amount of canned/dry food, clean water, gasoline, medical supplies? How long should we plan for before help arrives (from the government?? -- They didn't do much during Katrina)
====
We have NO hunting skills or "wilderness survival" skills. The closest we get to hunting for food is deciding whether it's Outback or Red Lobster for dinner :-(

If we were starting from scratch, with exactly a 12-month time-frame, what stockpile would we need? How many handguns or rifles and what calibers would we need (assuming SHTF or WROL happened during school breaks).

If SHTF happens while school is in session, how does the kid from California get to us? We assume it will be a game-time decision whether we drive to Austin (and back) or the kid goes to us.


Note: We already have a 9mm Beretta 92FS and Taurus 1911 45 ACP (and about 1k rounds for each). And I reload both calibers for practice.

Thanks!!

Go and take some hunting classes while you can. There is plenty in Texas. Really it isn't that hard. Just take time out of your busy life style. Plenty of guides on how-to's.

Also if you don't have any .22 rifles. Get a few. Those would be handier than those pistols. The pistols are only ok for close encounters which you don't want to be having anyway. You can use the .22's for hunting small game.

Check it for any damages. Really check the rubber seal for cracks and replace if it has any. Hopefully, you can find one that has the instruction manual with it. Follow all the directions carefully.

Can you cook black beans or kidney beans in a rice cooker?

Question by : Can you cook black beans or kidney beans in a rice cooker?
I'm just looking for a more convenient way to cook dry beans.


Best answer:

Answer by The Unknown Chef
If you soak them and cook them in a rice cooker they will be fine, I have done mine in the one I have, in my crockpot and an electric pressure cooker too, a rice cooker works on the basis of the weight of the rice and water, as it evaporates the spring in the bottom is tripped when done the water has gone and the weight changes, cook them with no salt as this toughens the skins, add onions, bay leaves and other spices, just remember to give the bowl a good wash or you next rice is going to taste like beans, the aluminium does tend to absorb flavours.

what is best veg steamer to have ?

Question by Wolf: what is best veg steamer to have ?
what is best veg steamer ?

and can i add hot Dog steam with veg steam for dieting ?

or can i add also tunaa or chicken??


Best answer:

Answer by JQuick
There is no best steamer. Pick one with the features you like. It can be simple as the bamboo steamers, or an electric model with multiple layers.

Hot dogs aren't generally good for dieting regardless of how they're cooked. But the steam rising from hot dogs is fat and calorie free, and will only add some odor to other foods that may absorb it. You can steam most meats. You don't get the benefits of browning or the seasoning of cooking with liquids when steaming. If you put a container like a bowl of rice and water, you aren't really steaming. That's boiling with steam. People get confused about the kind of cooking method when they are mixed. Bowls of anything with liquid inside a steamer is boiling, not steaming.

A pressure cooker is better than a steamer in most cases. Putting a trivet into most any pot turns it into a steamer, but a pressure cooker traps the steam to increase the cooking temp inside to up to 250degF, while regular steamers are limited to 212deg.F at sea level or lower temps at higher altitudes. You can cook rice in 6 minutes in a pressure cooker, along with any vegetables or diced lean meats at the same time. You can't do that in a steamer. Plus you can first brown the meat, rice, and aromatic vegetables like onions, garlic, and shallots in the base of the pressure cooker with a little oil, drain the oil, add water, and be done in less than 10 minutes with better flavor, color and texture of the result. You can think of a pressure cooker as a more advanced steamer, while regular steamers are for newbies who don't know how to pressure cook.

Best Pressure Cooker?

Question by Envy: Best Pressure Cooker?
I am looking to buy a Pressure Cooker....what are some of the best pressure cookers (not electric) out there that are highly recommended that are under $ 150. I want one with a good strong whistle and a sturdy ring inside...any insight would be appreciated!


Best answer:

Answer by sweetroll
Unless you are talking about a pressure fryer, they can be a bit pricey. I have never had a pressure cooker 'whistle' so I don't what your talking about there. And the sturdy ring? It's a replaceable rubber gasket.
A basic 6 quart Mirro or Presto can cost $ 40 - $ 60 dollars.
I have a vintage Mirro canning cooker from the 50's. It works great and the gaskets are still made. I have a Presto smaller version that I bought a few years ago for about $ 35.

What are the advantages and disadvantages of stainless steel pressure cookers?

Question by Meemee: What are the advantages and disadvantages of stainless steel pressure cookers?

PS. Advantage as well as disadvantages of the Stainless Steel instead of aluminium


Best answer:

Answer by Paul in San Diego
The advantage of a pressure cooker is that it will cook things faster at a higher heat without burning. If you boil a pot of water, the water will never get hotter than the boiling point (212 F or 100 C). Before it can, it turns to steam and escapes. If you try to superheat the water (keep it on high heat after it's started boiling), it will just boil over until all the water is gone.

With a pressure cooker, the pressure prevents the water from boiling at the normal boiling point. So, the temperature can be increased beyond that point without the pot boiling over (it's sealed under pressure, hence the name). This allows things to cook faster without drying out or burning.

I don't know what a disadvantage would be, except that it's more expensive than a regular pot.

Water bill and electric bill have increased drastically - but no leaks.

No. A water meter uses the flow of the water to turn gears resulting in a reading. Mechanical not electrical driven.
