The Boil Buddy – Handmade in Pennsylvania
Ever tried holding a piping-hot bag of rehydrated trail food with your bare hands? Yeah… not fun. That’s where the ultralight Boil Buddy steps in.
Designed and sewn right here in Pennsylvania, the Boil Buddy is an ultralight insulated pouch that cradles your hot meal like a cozy sleeping bag. It protects your hands from burning while helping your food stay warmer, longer—because no one likes lukewarm mac and cheese halfway through dinner.
At just 0.8 ounces, it's a no-brainer addition to your hiking gear kit. It measures about 10.5" wide and 6" tall, making it just the right size for most standard freeze-dried meal bags.
Most other insulated pouches the market are 3-5 times heavier. We got rid of the parts most of us don't need and made it as light as humanly possible while still being fully functional.
