Firebox Stove Grill Experiment with Trangia Burner / Homemade Beef Burgers with Bacon & Eggs

- Опубликовано: 6 авг 2024
- Hi all. I was supposed to do a camp but my wife is off so we are going out. I had in my mind to try a wee experiment with my grill and I have to say that I think that it worked rather well. The only thing that I would tweak at this point would be to perhaps lower the Trangia burner but other than that all good.
It was my first attempt using the cast iron with the alcohol burner, worked really well, I maybe could of used the diffuser to reduce the heat output a little but in general the food came out fine.
The idea is that I usually wouldn't take cast iron out with me on a walk so the compromise was to leave plates and cutlery at home and to try something different.
I used my firesticks to good effect and no bending occurred.
This is my own personal setup and not standard advice when using your stove.
Here's a link for this wonderful skillet and cast iron from Firebox stove

Nice one Chris. Watching this and eating my porridge and coffee. I love seeing quirky ways to set up the 5”. I have attached the small grill plate with two fire sticks through the bottom of the plate and right across the floor of the firebox to make a toaster. The sticks support the bread and keep it level with the bottom of the firebox and the grill plate keeps the bread up facing the heat. You have to keep an eye and keep turning the bread but it works. It seems you and I will be sharing the same weather front today and I’m doing an overnighter in the Sperrins. Wish me luck. 😂 Keep it going mate.
Wow Paul, that sounds like a great idea, I never thought to toast bread but now that you say it, it makes sense, I must give that a try.
I'm having coffee and porridge too! With a little honey😁😁.
Your camping trip sounds awesome, so good luck, hope you have a good time, all the best weather wise ha ha, cheers Chris
I love to see folks innovating! It's so much funner when you're you're testing your own ideas and it's working well!
Thanks Steve, I think it worked a treat, I have a tweak or two in my mind, but how well did the little Trangia burner do with the cast iron, amazing, I wasn't too sure what to expect but it exceeded expectations! I'm working on this system as to avoid bringing plates out etc the idea being minimal luxury cooking😁😁...and eating!
Chris has got to be the nicest, most pleasant gentleman on RUclips. I imagine him being the guy saying hi to complete strangers everywhere he goes. We need more like him 😊
Thank you for the kind words, my wife thinks otherwise ha ha, I live in Scotland, there are many friendly people, especially the older generation, I always have respect and time for them, thanks for watching my video, and for commenting cheers Chris
Wow, this grill pan is really sick!
Thank you
I Luv my FireBox Stoves. I have an original stainless steel & a pocket Titanium as well as a full size Ti-Folding version now! Great set-up you had there too.
Fantastic that you have all those, really you can't beat them, the amount of use mine gets is a lot and yet it's still going strong. Thanks for watching and commenting, Cheers Chris
Good job, brother! I love my Firebox and I feel you about the food control challenge. I usually try to keep a bandana or plate handy to transition the food around. It's not easy, especially with trying to do all of the camera work as well. You nailed it, though! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks very much, it just less dishes when we get home, the other parts of the firebox i could use to, as rests for food, all good fun, thanks for watching, cheers
Excellent video. 🙌
Thank you for saying that, Cheers Chris
Mmm nice. Love your chair.
So do I, very handy indeed, thanks for watching😁
You are living well. That sandwich had my mouth watering and that was even after having already finished my evening meal.
Knowing the meal that Connie would of served you that is very high praise indeed, we like to eat our dinner and watch your videos from time to time, cant comment because it's on the TV, our favourites are the cabin trips, thanks for watching this, cheers Chris
Like the cantilever warm plate.
Hi, thanks, it works really well, coming in very handy, thanks for watching, cheers Chris
Seeing your videos again makes me realise I need to get out in fresh air. Thanks.
Hi mate, thanks, it's always good to get out, of course when filming it seems to consume the time. I got out to some bird hides the other day and it was great not to film and just sit and watch nature, my favourite way to pass time. Hope you get that fresh air and have a good time, Cheers Chris
What fun! Looks yummy, and so pretty out there! :)
Thank you, it's a local woodland near me but is unlike any other here, so I feel very lucky to be able to spend time there and to cook, I really had great fun with this one, burgers were nice ha, thank you again.
That worked a treat didn't it, I do like using my Trangia alcohol stove and like you say when you cook everything you want without re filling its a bonus, feels like a little win 👍. Cracking video once again 👍
Thanks very much for watching another video, I was chuffed that the food was cooked and the flame literally died as I went to make the burger, perfect timing ha, doesn't always work like that😁 but I'll take it.
The setup was great, it really did work and I'll most definitely go forward with it. Thanks again, Cheers Chris
when I saw that egg yolk squirting out I was like oh no look what you are doing! lol love my runny egg yolks. Like that chair, nice when its horrible weather as well
Ha, I know, I flipped the egg too, then a little yolk hit my finger, it was only when I got home I saw the extent of my folly😅. The wee hide is great, nice and cosy, gets warm, but not waterproof at all, it's a weird material, soaks up the wet lol
@@northernembersoutdoors1045 wonder if a spray with fabseal would make it at least water resistant
Great 👍
Thank you! Cheers!
I don't know if you needed the hunting blind o see the bumble bee and beetle😁
Looked like a great experiment! You got delicious results😋
That was a green tiger beetle, a feisty wee thing, best to hide from it😅😅. I filmed it two years ago, the micro world is fascinating. Cheers Chris
@@northernembersoutdoors1045 the micro world is indeed fascinating and I enjoy seeing it😁
Outstanding Brother, It was awesome to see that, amount of food cooked, with one Burn 🔥 I can't wait for all of the Awesome equipment, coming from Firebox, Especially after watching those amazing Burgers. That you Cooked, again Great Job, 👍 Sincerely your freind from Mo Rick. God Bless you and your Wife.
Thank you very much, it worked so well and to get that amount of food from so little was great, glad to hear you are getting the equipment, i think you will really enjoy it, happy cooking when it comes, cheers Chris
Picked a nice spot Chris 😎🏕️🦌🏔️.
Thanks Billy, a local woodland, soon to be in leaf! 🌿🌿 Cheers bud, Chris
A wonderful little stove...all a person really needs! A great way to get out and enjoy a good cook up! Looks lovely indeed!!
Hi there, thanks, indeed it is all you really need out there, I haven't really played with it much, always used it in a conventional way but I soon realise there's a lot of possibilities. Do you have a twig stove yourself?
@@northernembersoutdoors1045 Yes I do! It is quite small, but fun to use.
Wow, what a beautiful scene with the trees and the moss underneath! The stump in the foreground looks like it has some good fatwood in it. Great cooking, I like this food arrangement too. When should I come over? ;-)
Hi, thanks a lot, I will go back and see if there's fatwood as I'm after some. That woodland is near me, on the map it's described as ancient woodland, I really like it there, very weird moss formations, welcome anytime as long as you bring steaks😎. Thanks for a great comment, Cheers Chris
Exactly the video I was searching for!
That's great to hear, thanks for taking time out of your day to watch, cheers.
Fantastic demonstration of the new firebox product!
Thank you, the new skillet and the firebox stove have created a complete cooking system, I cant describe how great it all is, thank you for watching. Cheers Chris
.Nice and contained, no smoke and of course, the second burger. Nice one Chris cheers.
Thanks Gregor, one for the woods and one for the road only it never leaves the woods 😎👍, good point on the smoke too, good for a stealth cook.
So cool Chris!
Looking forward to getting that email from firebox saying my cast iron is on its way.
Sound great, I think very soon now, lots of people are excited about this for good reason, I hope you have fun and enjoy it when it arrives, cheers Chris
Excellent vid once again thanks. I'm seriously wishing for the cast iron set more each time I watch you use it!!! Cheers. J.
Thank you for the kind words, I think it's four videos in a row of using it but I know a lot of people are getting theirs soon so I'm just trying different things out, I bet you cant wait and I really hope you have as much fun as I'm having, thanks for watching my video and your great comment, cheers Chris
That was a clever setup! I usually use a Trangia on my Firebox Nano and the gas burner on the 5". I like that the Trangia got the cast iron hot enough to cook everything for you.
Hi there, thanks for watching. I honestly thought I might struggle for heat as I've never used the trangia with cast iron before. As it stands it got too hot! It got a bit frantic as I was messing about with the camera and it cooked really quick. Saying that it was good fun. I'm yet to try gas,I don't have the right setup.
I don't have the nano but everyone that has it seems to enjoy it.
Thanks again, Cheers Chris
nice! I liked that. thanks for the idea my friend.
Thank you, always good to try different things and this really worked very well for me and my style of cooking, thanks for watching the video and the comment, cheers Chris
Make sure you get the tomaato sauce on it!
Firebox Steve sent me here
Thanks for coming to watch, I know Steve shared my videos and it transformed the channel quite a bit, always grateful, cheers Chris
Fantastic video! I will be copying you with my similar kit. Sure wish that I could find bacon like that here in the US!
Hi there, thank you very much, this worked so well that it's going to be the way forward for me. I got lucky with the bacon, found it in a shop I had never been to before, it was thicker and nicer than usual. thank you so much for watching, cheers.
Very good show have you tried baking breads in the firebox 5 way cast iron pan yet . Thanks
Thanks Willis, yes I did some bread inside, in my fireplace, but I will do a better loaf outside someday, thanks for watching, Chris
Nice setup - I have several Firebox stoves too but am really intrigued by the chair - have you got a link to it pls ? Thx
Hi there, it's called a nitehawk pop up hunting chair or hide. I got it from Amazon.
I love it, the only thing is it's not waterproof but I could probably spray it and sort that out. Glad to hear you've got the stoves, thanks for watching, Cheers Chris
This was cool. Could you please post a link to your cast iron skillet/grill plate?
Hi, thanks, it's from Firebox stove, to be available for sale very shortly. I'll put a link below. Many thanks.

That is a nice jacket. Mind sharing who makes it?
Hi it's from a company called Jack Murphy, Irish I think. That jacket was called Christopher, not sure if they still do it, Cheers Chris
Good idea, also what chair and canopy is that, would be good for my photography thanks
Hi there, it's called a nitehawk popup hide.
Below is a link to a video I did on it. It's not waterproof, but other than that it's great. Many thanks

@@northernembersoutdoors1045 perfect thanks very much
oh btw which is heavier the fajita plate or the grill plate
This is bigger, thicker and more solid so is a bit heavier, not too much. Not even sure where I put that fajita plate. Handy wee thing.
Why is that Trangia sport burning so orange?
Not to sure, could be my camera picked it up differently or the fuel type perhaps, it is Methylated Spirits. Maybe my Trangia needs a clean, cheers for watching
