Peterson Elizabethan Mixture for me. It dries quickly and is a no-fuss pack-and-go tobacco.
Not my favorite by any means, but no fuss- go to, scoop it straight out of the container with whatever pipe I’m using would be Granger. I find myself reaching for it more and more when I don’t want to take the time with drying a flake or cutting off a piece of plug. Plus, it’s readily available and don’t have to spend the time hunting it down like some of my more preferred blends.
GLP Westminster. Smokes great every time for me.
C&D Mountain Camp, Country Squire Northwest Trek and Cowboy Coffee are my quick load 'em and go selections.
Pretty much any ready rubbed non-aromatic burley in a pouch... that's as easy, no fuss & go to as I get. Missouri Meershaum's Missouri Pride comes to mind.
Not my "go to" blend, but that's about as easy as it gets for me. I've got at least three opened pouches of it currently laying around; in my tractor, my truck, and in my garage.

This one is one of my favorites but has been fussy for me lately more than usual. Probably user error on my part than the tobacco itself. It seems like if I pack it slightly too tight, doesn't burn. Pack it slightly too loose, doesn't taste like anything. Any tips?
Kramer's Father Dempsey or Balkan Sasieni. I've never had a problem with either in any pipe and they always hit the spot.
How are you regulating moisture content?
Perhaps it needs to be drier, then load neither too tight nor too loose!
Haunted Bookshop and Chenet’s cake for me. Also Louisiana Red.
PS Cube Cut... just pour a little into the bowl, do not compress it down, light and go. It does have a casing flavor, but it reminds me of one of the better codger blends. I label jars of this as "Socks with Sandals" in my cellar. I really like it best when I am feeling senior citizen-y.
As fine as they are fresh, English Chocolate really rounds out after 2 years or so. It can be a bit sharp early on but really becomes wonderful (to me) after a bit of time.
For me it's OGS or Granger. Always good, always easy, always available.
Pegasus is what I smoke when I don't know what I want to smoke and don't feel like thinking about it. Smokes pretty well in just about anything I put it in.
Like others have mentioned, LLRR, Granger, and Half & Half are guarantees.
