Packit Gourmet is a family-owned and operated business home-based in the
Hill Country of Austin, Texas.

A multi-generational passion for food, family and the outdoors is the foundation of Packit Gourmet

Drawing inspiration from family recipes and familiar flavors, our meals are a connection to home . . . no matter where you are.
“Our roots are in the deep South regions of the United States, but our travels have exposed us to flavors worldwide. That being said, most of the flavors you’ll find in our meal offerings are inspired by our own home-cooking experience and the comfort foods that we enjoy best ourselves.

For example, the Dottie of “Dottie’s Chicken and Dumplings” fame, is named after my mother — a world-class Chicken and Dumplings cook. So I have that “taste in my mouth” and in my memory when I am creating these meals; I keep tweaking until the flavors reach that expectation.”

Packit Gourmet's trail meals are hand-mixed in small batches and packed to order.
We lean on our own backcountry experience in both creating Packit Gourmet meals and in curating the grocery items we stock on our shelves. We taste-test each and every item offered to ensure that the flavor, texture, nutrition, and appearance of our trail meals are equal to what we eat at home.

We understand that size, weight, water, resource conservation, and packaging are important considerations, so we select items with that in mind. If we wouldn’t use, eat or carry it – we won’t sell it in our store.
