I’ve been camping all my life so….which ones to I still have?

–An old model of Coleman: Green metal rectangle with 2 burners.  Colman fuel.

–Portable and kettle-type charcoal grills.  Both have lids.  Can burn wood instead of briquets.

–Portable bottled gas outdoor stove -small.  Not durable. [given to us]

–I always keep a #10 can or two.  When I was 8? years old, our Brownie troop made “Hobo Stoves” and I’ve never forgotten them.  Need what we used to call a “church key” to make triangular vent holes

How to Make a Hobo Stove

–Apparently I have the makings of a paint-can-rocket -stove …but it’s never been constructed.  …yeah, it’s now back on the TO DO list…

–I keep spare grill tops and such.  If I needed stealth, I’d probably make a Dakota hole to hide the flames, reduce the smoke, and increase draw of air.  IF we were not in wildfire danger…which we are too much of the time in these recent years.

–I have a ‘chafing dish’ which would warm things …not sure about cook??

–Triple wick candles can heat things…
