When I was young, we used to call them "BUNNY BURNERS. " And use a COFFEE TIN as the cooker.
No that's wrong to burn bunnies 😢

Thank you so much for this video! I’ve never heard of a buddy burner. I was a Campfire Kid, much more lame than Boy Scouts or Girl Scouts apparently. Our cats eat a disturbing amount of canned cat food in those shorty cans, and my mother in law is QVC’s best customer, so I’ll be snagging some cardboard when we visit this week! I learn so many cool things from your channel, even how to pressure can, and I really just can’t thank you enough!❤🇺🇸
Good one. Ya taught the old dog a new trick!🤙
Wow. I've never seen this done with cardboard . BIG FLAME to actually cook something for real. Thx!
What a great thing to know! I’m old and had never heard of this. Thanks, Jinne
I bet that would make a good little heater in a pinch, if you set a clay pot over top of it to capture the heat. You'd just have to put the clay pot on the rack to keep the air flowing. I've never seen this done before so I appreciate this video very much. Really cool, Jinne. About how long does one of these burn before they're pretty much spent?
I was in GS from Brownies to Senior Scouts. Camping was my favorite part. We made & used these buddy burners. We used them under a larger can (industrial sz Veggie can) & cooked right on that.❤
Those are such great memories! I remember it as well. It seems like just yesterday we went on a hike, stopped and lit our buddy-burners, put them under the bigger can, put a skillet on top, and cooked bacon and eggs for breakfast!
I'd forgotten about these. Thank you! Flat cat food cans will work too!❤
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS BRILLIANT SURVIVAL HACK, JINNE. I WAS A GIRL SCOUT FOR SEVERAL YEARS, BUT WE NEVER LEARNED TO MAKE ONE OF THESE (THAT MY OLD BRAIN CAN REMEMBER, ANYWAY. 🤔) AS YOU (MUCH TO MY FAMILY MEMBERS' FRUSTRATION) I SAVE EVERYTHING THAT I THINK WILL COME IN HANDY IN AN EMERGENCY SITUATION. AMONG OTHER THINGS IN MY STORAGE ROOM, I HAVE A BOX FULL OF ALL SIZES OF CANS, A BOX FULL OF VARIOUS SIZES OF GLASS JARS AND BOTTLES AND ANOTHER BOX FULL OF OLD CANDLE WAX. YA NEVER KNOW WHEN SOMETHING WE USUALLY TROW AWAY WILL COME IN HANDY. THANKS AGAIN. 🥰
Great video! I have so much leftover wax I need to do this, Jinne! Thanks so much!
I have some of these that I made as a kid in Girl Scouts along with quite a few new ones I made. I always save wax pieces, broken candles, etc. Besides tuna cans and cat food cans this size I also saved the smaller cat food cans. A friend and I pooled all of our wax pieces and made over 50 small candles with those. You can also save used birthday candles and use them as little wicks when making these or making smaller candles.
How long do they burn?
@@cgarcia4487 I haven't actually burned any of the stove type cans all the way through to give you a time. I have used them and then put the flames out by covering them to smother the flames. I have had the candles I've made from the small cans burn several hours but again, I've never burned any of them completely out. I have these things put away for emergencies and don't make a habit of burning them unless I really need to.
We use to make those in Girl Scouts! I’d forgotten how fun they were! Now I’m gonna be making them to set aside! Thank you!
I have sooooo many candles and votives that I can use for this. Cool idea! I will have to start saving tuna cans to make a good stock of these. Thanks Jinne! Great idea!
You can put candles in the freezer in the jar and the candle wax comes out very easy. That is a great little burner. No need to cook outside and draw attention
You are amazing !! I definitely will be making these !! Thank You for another wonderful tip ❤❤❤
I made myself one of these +/-4 years ago. Learned it in Girl Scouts. Used the coffee can as the “stove”!
I learn something every time I watch your videos. Thanks.
Your hair looks gorgeous!
I 💯 agree
Jinne, I've been saving up cans just for this purpose! The best part of girl scouts for me was camping! I just ate it up! Unfortunately, no one else did. My husband's idea of camping is going to the Holiday Inn Express and turning off all the lights!😂
Useing the large chicken cans makes a larger version that will boil faster then take a larger can and creat air holes with a punch can opener flip that large can over your burner and you have a surface to cook on. We used these to pack as a kid.
I just love your “Yankee ingenuity”! You bring back memories of my mom. She was from Worcester, Mass and I was born in CT. I miss my roots, but Florida is home now. My mom was thrifty and did simple things. I miss her so much but you fill my heart with thoughts of her. Thanks so much.❤️
Aawww, that's so sweet. I'm so glad the videos are helpful and spark beautiful memories! 💕🇺🇸
Wonderful, practical idea! I love the fact that you showed not only how to make them, but how to use them as well. (And, yeah, that shade of green is much more appealing than 'turd brown'! 😂💩)
I had forgotten about those Buddy burners!!
Perfect project to do with the grandchildren!!!
The last time the grandchildren were here we made fire starters using toilet paper rolls, dryer lint, old birthday candles and cotton from medicine bottles. The kids had a great time making them and using them to start the fire pit. (They used more than was necessary but….they had a great time 😂)
Thanks for the useful reminder!!!😄
What a great idea. Recycle and reuse.
Great video! This is definitely something I am going to make for my Emergency Stockpile!!
In the 80's I had a teacher who taught Home Ec. Cooking class taught us how to make one with tuna cans. We each got to make one to take home. Found out later that that was not part of the school curriculum but for some reason she taught it anyways and now it is 2023 and I still have that one tuna can to this day.
Never heard of them before. How easy to make such a great survival cooking tool. Thank you for all you do for this community!
Good video to explain how to make and use these little can-candles. I find them to be a great little 'back up' for in-home cooking, if needed. I have made them, and I use a #10 can lid to extinguish the flames from my tin-can candles. Crimp the lid's sharp edges so they're safe and can't cut your fingers. Then add a layer or two of duck tape strips along the edge of the lid. (Cut the duck tape to thin strips) The #10 can lid is large enough to completely cover the tin-can candles and not burn the duck taped edges. The fire will go out quickly using a lid like this.
That is so cool I knew there had to be something we burn lots of candles in Texas just sit it out in the sun no pots needed lol 😅
I combine it with an upside down number 10 can, that I cut a flap in the bottom to slide the waxed cardboard tin through., instead of the rack. It raises the pan higher and the pan doesn't turn black. I still put it on the stove like you did with with a cookie sheet or something like that to hold it safe on the stove.
What a great idea!
You can put a grate from a stove also, I put mine under a #10 vith a vent hole top and bottom and cook hot dogs or hamburgers right on top of thr can,,no pot needed!!!
This is a great idea! I have been saving cans for a while because I figured there would be a use for them. Are these one-time use or can you extinguish them and reuse until it's used up?
Great for camping, too! Thank you.
I am going to make a couple for the car and one for each bug out bag! Thanks!!
This is genius. I love all things survival/emergency, and I had no idea about this. I’ve been reusing my wax in my scent warmer to keep the scent going, but now I’m doing this!
Thanks for another great one, Jinne!

Wow, this is great!! I'm going to get busy making these. Thank you so much!
Jinne, you have 2 million matches and you're using a lighter? 😂 Love you, girl! ❤
😂😂
I was thinking the same thing. LOL😂😂😂
The buddy burner is easy to make and can be very useful. Awesome. Thank you. God bless.
Greetings and blessings from southeast Louisiana.. Hope you and your family fared well during the recent hurricane.
In case we do get winter this year I'm looking forward to trying this out. Also, I like having a pot of water boiling allowing the steam to add moisture and heat into the air when it isn't chilly enough to turn on the furnace or the fireplace only provides heat in the living room. The idea of using saved cardboard, wax and tuna cans inside the house is fascinating; using saved larger chicken and turkey tins, too...I have a rocket stove, propane, etc. but this is another backup for my backups. Still have the a/c on, probably 'til November or December (?) but will give this a try shortly. I have canned meats, etc. so as not to need extended cooking/prep time. Hubby says this has been around for a long time but this is a" first" for me.
Thanks and hugs, Jinni
These are perfect to make out of a mint tins and toss in your bags or car and rubber band a lighter to it. When I made mine, I took used birthday candles to use for the wick.
Hi Jinne, I'm so impressed by this! What a great idea on how to use these items, giving them a new life. I'm definitely filing this one away.
WOW!! That's great!! Thank you!!
Wow! I never heard of Buddy Burners! Thank you for sharing!! I'm def going to make some.
I personally don’t like to add scented candles scraps as I feel like it messes up the flavor of the food. Definitely wouldn’t use stinky crayons unless I had no other option.That’s just me though.
I'm impressed, Jinne! Thanks so much for sharing this. It will come in very handy. I love that we can make these ahead and store them for future use. You rock!
Awesome video! Thank you! Now I know what to do with my wax melts when the scent is gone.
Putting the pot with the wax in another pot, just like you do it with chocolate, also has another important advantage: It prevents the wax from catching fire as it only gets as hot as the boiling water.
I've seen this done as a "campfire in a can" using an empty paint can.
Sacramento, California USA 🇺🇸
Thank you Jinne for sharing this wonderful idea. I have them all set to add the wax, and I really need to do that. Thanks for the reminder. A wonderful and safe cooking mode when things are on the fritz! 😊👍
Thanks for the video. Storm season on the way so definitely need to make a few of these. Ten minutes is a good time to warm or cook something.
Fabulous idea.
This is the coolest! I was a Girl Scout but don't recall making Buddy Burners. Thank you for sharing this awesome option for indoor cooking, can't wait to try it out!
Turd Brown. Lol. 💩
Bet your Home smells Loverly. 🤗
These are great, & handy things to put in a Ziplock bag in the House, but also in your Car, if you ever get stuck in the Cold, they'd keep you a bit warm.
You can maybe cut the card at a slightly taller angle at the start, then it would be easier to light.
TFS HC, take care & keep really busy everyone. ❤🙂🐶
What an ingenious idea! I have a small, fold-up stove for sterno cups. You just saved me a fortune cause they ain't cheap!!!! Thank you!!
We used to call that Boy Scout Sterno when I was a Scout. DANG... that makes me feel old...lol
That is awesome , great info to know , Thank you Jinne
Thanks so much Jinne! UGH!! I gave away a ton of crayons! I will be making some of these!!
For real, i watched 9 vids, plus shorts since early this morning, on making these little stoves. And then your video came up in my notifications.
I had forgotten this trick. Thanks for the reminder.😊
Great one Jinny! You can add a wick if you want.
Excellent video. This is one thing I never learned in girl scouts about a hundred years ago! Thanks for sharing. I'm going to make some of these!
Thank you Jinne!
Thank you so much. I've never heard of a bubby burner or ever saw one. I will be making some for sure. Hurricane Lee just ripped our power lines apart here in Nova Scotia. We went 36 hours without power, it was a eye opener for sure. We haven't ever seen wind like that and hope never again. It stripped every leaf off of my crab apple tree!
Be great for a rainy night
Great video. I have never heard of these but you can bet I’m gonna be making some! Thanks
Just found your channel a couple weeks ago and I'm hooked! Real solutions for real people with a nice doss of humor. What else could you ask for? Today you were reading my mind. Lost power over the weekend and got out my Ecoflow. I used it for simple things and 4 teapots of water. Then it went dead. So, each pot cost me $250. 😢 So, I thought, time to find a way to make tea without using fuel because I'm not giving up my tea. AND THERE YOU WERE WITH MY ANSWER! I almost fell over. Going to dollar tree to load up on cheap candles and will make a few thousand of these. I'll need to dumpster dive for cans, but it's a small price to pay. Next I'm going to let you teach me to can!!!
Great idea thanks for the video!❤😊
Thank you. Love this type of videos. God Bless and stay safe.
Great video! I wasn’t a girl scout - so this was very helpful!
WONDERFUL!!! THANK YOU🤗
Great idea...thank you Jinnie.
Wow that is awesome! I've bought a ton of these types of burners and could have been making them myself all along. Thank you very much.
Thank you!!! This is very helpful information.
Good video, thanks for sharing, God bless !
Brilliant idea
Thanks for this reminder! We both forgot all about these! Love your channel. You’ve taught me so much already.
Thanks for sharing this video. I'm going to be making a few batches of these. 👍
You did an exceptional teaching video on a buddy burner. I am new at prepping, I was checking out Amazon on different types of camping stoves. Do you think having a butane camp stove is good to use inside of the house. I do have a wood burning fireplace I use for heat in the winter if it ever gets cold enough. I live in Phoenix AZ and it doesn't get too cold at my location, however with the Monsoon storms have caused blackouts for a few hours on end and I have only an electric stove for cooking.
I would appreciate your thoughts or direction. I enjoy your Dollar Tree and Walmart food hauls for the pantry.
Great tutorial
I line a cast iron skillet with tin foil then add tea lights lite them lay a cooling rack on top then can cook chicken or what ever coffee important lol did this for 2 weeks since ice took power lines down have been using it since
Great idea! Thanks
Very awesome tutorial!!
Thinking of all the cardboard I have tossed !
This is a great idea!! I bet you could use wax from wax warmers too!!
Yes, as long at its wax, it will work! 💕🇺🇸
I recently made some Buddy Burners from slightly larger cans. The largest can I used was a Dinty Moore beef stew can. (I think the height to width ratio is the most important factor, you want the can to be no taller than the width of the can) I also used the extra large tuna & chicken cans. Another thing I do is stuff a match down in the center of the Buddy Burner. I found some 'Made in Mexico' matches that are made from some kind of twisted waxed paper instead of wood or plain paper. They make perfect wicks for the Buddy Burners, making them easier to light.
Edit: Don't forget to save the lid from each can you use to make Buddy Burners... Dropping the original lid on it makes it safer & easier to extinguish the flame when you're done using it.
Finally a use for the wax left in my tart burner after the scent is gone!
This is a great use for that old wax!
Old school but really great idea!
Thank you, this was really a good idea.
Thank you so much for sharing this. Very cool & easy looking idea. I shared it on my channel. ❤
Cool idea 😊 thank you
Thank you very much great idea Blessings
Thx for this information never saw this before ❤️
That's great 👍
I love this, thank you!
Good to.know. I'm wondering how you.put the flame out when your done cooking.
Thanks! Another awesome video!
YES MADE 5
This is a great idea!
Awesome! Thank you💗
Wow, thank you, so much, for this great video. God bless you.
🙏👍❤️✨🌟🌻🍂🍁🧡✝️
