It would be put in sealed mylar bags with oxygen absorbers and silica gel packs. It seems to me that this would be something pretty useful/convenient to have in the long term storage bin. Any ideas?

I don't have box of Bisquick in front of me, but I would look at the ingredients. Then look at each ingredient separately in terms of storage life and go with the shortest shelf life for of the ingredients when stored in Mylar with oxygen absorbers. I'm sure flour is the main ingredient. I have read is good for ~5 years at 70 degrees, longer if keep cooler than 70 degrees.

Enriched flour, bleached wheat flour, niacin, iron, thiamine, mono-nitrate, riboflavin, folic acid, partially hydrogenated soybean and/or cottonseed oil.  Leavening (baking soda, sodium aluminum phosphate, monocalcium phosphate) dextrose, salt

The soybean and/or cottonseed oil would be the limiting factors for lengthy longterm storage due to the fat.

I would say properly held, 5 years good, 2 more years questionable, after that pushing it for nutritional value, like "canned flour" 10 yr max would be my assumption the other stuff in there is what may go TU..
