Campfire Cooking - Cornish Pasties Baked in a Reflector Oven.
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 8 сен 2024
- In this video, I am down in Cornwall to visit my buddy Ginge. Whilst there, it seemed appropriate to have a go at making some Cornish pasties - the original self contained beef and vegetable pastry snack.
It would certainly be easier to make them at home in the kitchen with all the convenient utensils and appliances, but its much more fun to make them in camp and cook them next to the camp fire in a reflector oven.
I hope you enjoy the video,
Thanks for watching.

Hi Simon. Just want to say that the little variations in your on-screen tag line ("Simon, a bloke in Kernow" and so forth) are still fun and amusing. All these years later, I still appreciate that you do them.
I completely agree! I love those as well.
Simon should have 500+ subscribers.
He should have 1 million!!@@JasonMcCann841
I agree yay Simon is back camping or walking or breathing doing whatever cooking glad to see Simon. We love Simon here in Northern California.🙏💯🇺🇸🇬🇧
ABSOLUTELY, Simon is the best. Cooking Cornish pasties in Cornwall is cool. When Simon first started, his meals were more modest. Now, WHEWWW, he’s turned into a real chef! Good on him! Thanks for sharing…from US, east Tennessee.
And Michigan
And Georgia, US
And Pennsylvania US
And Melbourne Australia 👏
You and Andy should join together to write a cookbook. It would be great!
Simon really is a good cook.
Welcome back Simon. Missed my weekly viewing. More please.
Good morning Simon - thanks for visiting Ginge. I haven't heard how he was doing since he left Instagram and I also left Instagram shortly after him. Hi, Ginge IF you are reading this. Just lovely!
Also Simon after all these years of watching, I think I figured out why I"'m addicted to your channel - outside of the obvious - your videos just have that "I'm home for a visit and most things are the same giving it that "comfortable feeling of catching up with friends and family, yet there is that touch of "newness/difference" that makes each video something I don't want to miss out on." Don't know if that makes sense or not, but the videos are like comfort food for the mind and soul. Thanks again for sharing parts of "real life" with us.
Yep
Far too long between videos! You got us hooked on weekly programs. More MREs. More canoe camps, more instructional videos, more tours of historical sites. Just more Simon, please.
Thank you mate! 🙏🏻
Well said, Kenbur. He has something special and I think you described it perfectly.
Yay! Simon is back!
I haven't lived in the UK for 35 years, but last week I had a sudden urge to make & eat a Cornish pasty! And now I know how. Thank you so much, you have made my day.
If you’re in the US, a trip to the Upper Peninsula of Michigan can fulfill that pastie urge.
@@deannaerwin6419 I found that out on a recent motorcycle trip. Delish.
@@deannaerwin6419curious to know; did that area have a lot of Cornish settlers then?
@@eps0m1066 Cornish miners were encouraged to settle in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula. Mostly iron ore and copper mines. We also had waves of Finnish immigrants- very similar climate. I think there is still a Finnish language radio station here.
Very good to see you again, Simon! Thanks.
What a treat to see you making what I grew up on in Michigan’s (USA) Upper Peninsula. The history…
When you think of the Upper Peninsula’s favorite food, what’s the first thing that comes to mind? Pasties, right? The “pot pie without a pot”, pasties have become a northern Michigan staple. Not only are they a flavorful handheld pastry but are also rich in Michigan history.
The pasty came to the United States when Cornish miners immigrated here in the 1840s. The dish can be dated all the way back to 1150 in England. The pasty gained popularity with miners because it was easy to bring into the mines, kept them full throughout the long work days and could stay warm up to 10 hours.
A fine dish and deservedly so!
There are tons of pasty stores in the UP too. It's always the first stop when I'm up there!
Thank you for the history. I'm making some tomorrow night ... I'm super excited
Pasties stores can also be found in Northern Minnesota! Guess what I'm going to be making!
That’s awesome the pasty has travelled so far.
They also had half with meat inside. The other half with jam ( jello) in it.
Pleased to see you back on tour, Simon! Especially with such a delicious art of cooking! Thank you Simon!
Another lovely relaxed video for the viewers, regardless of your concerns about how the pasties were cooking.
Simon, this was a treat. Don't worry about the comments/calls for more regular videos. March to your own drum and roll along at whatever pace keeps your life in balance. That way, we'll all keep enjoying your videos while you keep enjoying making them.
Yes, finally a new video 👍. It's always so uplifting and fun to watch you. Cornish pasties are so delicious 😋. Stay safe Simon 🙏
Great to see Ginge again. Have a lovely summer Simon. All the best from the Suffolk coast 👊🙏❤️
finally, I've missed your films Simon, so good to see you again :)
As my husband comes from Cornwall he’s ask me to say what a fabulous job you are doing one little thing you missed out the pudding in one end what the miners use to take down the pits but so glad your back you kept us saine all through out lockdown along with Andy keep up the fabulous job you are doing and thank you
As in black pudding I assume ??.... sorry I'm American lol.... just curious
@rockkhound943 no, they used to have a sweet section for afters. Or so I've heard.
@@Tom_Bee_ no the pudding was in the end of the pasty also had spoon of clotted cream in as well
I’ve heard that the Cornish miners in Northern Michigan had something like sweetened apples at one end .
No savoury one side , sweet on the other
Always love it when a "Simon, a bloke in the woods" notification pops up in RUclips! Your Cornish Pasties remind me of my fried apple pies that I made a couple of times for our camping group. There's hardly any of our group left now. We miss those wonderful times. It think that's why I enjoy your videos so much. They take me back to those days. Thank you for sharing this experience with us. It looked to me that you did a wonderful job! And it was so good to see your old friend Ginge and his puppers. Take care and be safe and I will be looking forward to your next adventure! 😊👍❤
Thank you! I like the sound of fried apple pies! 😋
Good to see you back Simon.. As usual, Loved it
Finding a beer mixed in with firewood, picking it up, looking at it, and saying, BONUS , is priceless!!!!
You ROCK!!!!
Simon, always good to see a new video from you! Thanks for taking us along on your adventures!
Great to have you back!!!
Banging Cornish pasty’s Simon. You’ve big time overtakin Andy’s cookin LOL 😂 👍
As a Cornish person myself, nothing beats a pasty and you certainly did them proud! Well done 😊
Hi Simon…..I hope all is well in your world. I have really been missing seeing your smiling face and hearing your laugh. I hope you will post again soon. All the best from me in 🇨🇦
I have never looked forward to a video as I do with yours!!! Thank you !!!!
I saw the kettle and thought “is he with Ginge??….please let it be Ginge….he’s in Kernow?? It must be Ginge…..it is Ginge !!!!” ❤️❤️ loved seeing your (almost) Cornish mate again, plus you of course!!! A much needed slice of normality and wholesomeness !! I notice the tarp and hammock setups in back of shot, so hoping there’s a pt2 😁 you’ve enthused me to get the tarp up in the back garden for a bit of impromptu (not so wild) camping tonight, so thank you and keep ‘em coming!!! 😊
Thank you Stephen! We had a great few days - I only filmed this video while I was there I’m afraid - needed a bit of woods time without the camera if that makes sense 😁
In Canada, it’s called a turnip. Your Cornish pasties look absolutely delicious! It’s really good to see you back on RUclips. You were missed. 🏕️🔥
Same in Australia.
Nice of Michael Eavis to pop by for a pasty. They looked great.
😂😂😂
We missed you, Simon !.. greetings from Massachusetts
Hi Simon. Great video!! When you dumped out the firewood and the beer fell out … BONUS!! Absolutely hilarious!! I loved it!!! Great job on the pasties! Makes me want to try it!! Thank you for bringing us along!!😊😊😊
Thanks for filming this. I enjoyed your past paddles with Ginge and was wondering how he and the dogs were doing. So lovely to see them again. Nice ending, feeding Dram and Tor; they gobbled it down, so the pasties must have been top-drawer.
They look delicious! Thank you for the idea. That will be my next campout dinner. I live in Seattle, Washington. Enjoyed your videos very much. Thank you
Hi Simon, great to see you back out on the woods. Well I’m now sat here craving a pastie. Thanks for that. 😎🇬🇧
Great to see you back 😊
Good to see you back out camping
The only thing that compares to a Simon video, is a Simon video with Ginge! I love Ginge and I love to watch you cook, Simon. Those pasties look wonderful. So good to see you guys and for the new recipe! Cheers!
Welcome back Simon thank you for sharing this amazing video that corniche pasties you made absolutely looks mouth watering 😋 thank you Simon 😊
Yes!!! So glad you're back Simon. I've been watching other videos and was just thinking, where is Simon? So good to see you again. Your Cornish Pastie looks delicious! We grew up with those in my family here in Canada...my grandmother, mom and aunt made them, pork pies and meat pies at least once a week.....ahhhh...the memories. You've got me going now, I will be making those as Autumn nears. Thank you!
Yeayyy it's Simon!! Always a surprise and a joy when a new video pops up. ❤
They looked so good! I'm glad you gave the puppies some, too. Enjoyed your video, as always! Take care and see you next time.
Some people won't try to make pastry at home because it is too difficult and fussy for them. Props to you Simon. You made pastry and then baked it on an open fire, amazing!
Simon, that was the best campfire baking I've seen so far. It looked absolutely delicious.
an upload by Simon always makes my day better. Thank You for the recipe def gonna try these. my bf and i just returned from a camping trip.it rained all night second night but we have gone through thunder and lightning storms before. Cheers to another great camp
Beer falls out the backpack, "didn't know that was there". lol. Cheers.🍻
Hi Simon, you dont quite seem yourself.. hope all is well.. remember to take care of yourself first so that you can then take care of others 👍
Another lovely video Simon. Love KK ! My daughter had her first proper wild camp down there in the spring, what a beautiful woodland it is, and what a great camp setup Ginge has.
Hi Simon
Good to see you out again Mate, I’m only 10 mins into the video and I love it already, made my night Simon after a long day working in this heat!! All the very best to you. 👍😎
My favourite portion of your vlog. The cooking show 😁. Looks so delicious 😋
Well done! I grew up near Helston in the south of Cornwall and those looked like great pasties - proper job! 🙂👍
Cornish Pasties were a staple in my household growing up ❤ .
Greetings from DeerPark Washington state, USA.
Watching from the sunny Cornwall in Canada and loved this. Being a retired chef I gotta love a man that can cook (respect to Mrs Bloke) Well done Simon xo
I was very lucky, my husband and I had a joint interest once our children had grown. We bought a Harley and joined a small club. Travelled all over. America and Ireland were the best. We love camping and your channel
I used to live in Cornwall so I've had a few pasties in my time and those looked awesome. Proper job! 🤤👍
Simon I'm stuck in a hospital for now and cant get out for any adventures so your wee video has cheered me right up no end thank you so much ♥️ 😊
I Agree🎉Great to see you Simon ❤what a treat think i will try that this weekend❤cant wait for the next adventure🎉
Im a 5th generation miner of Cornish decent. I was taught to put a few cubes of butter on top with salt and pepper before we crimped the two halves together. Then a few fork pokes on the top crust.
That looks so yummy awesome job Simon thank you for the Adventure now I'm waiting for the next one God bless my friend stay safe
I can't say I have a single recipe calling for rutabaga...until today. Cheers Simon.
Nice one Simon. It's always good to see you enjoying the southwest. Proper Like.
Best greetings from Germany, nice to see you back Simon.
Love your videos. I'm slowly watching everyone. You are so relaxing to watch
Edit: Tx, USA
Amazing job. They looked great, better than many people could do in a fully fitted kitchen.
Cozy little camp with some delicious grub!
Fantastic, thanks Simon. I thoroughly enjoyed that. Looking forward to giving it a try myself with my boys. Now I know how! Cheers, Martin
Yep just good old fashioned wholesome veiwimg thanks simon😊
Nice job as always simon! We gotta see a collab friendly cookoff with Andy! You guys are the best camping cooks ever.
Simom those pasties came out fantastic. Good to see you again. Take care.
I love cornish pastries...perfect Work food. Nice Video
Glad you’re back Simon, keep the videos coming we need our weekly diet of outdoor woodland life. 😊
Thanks for sharing your adventure and glad to see you again enjoying the outdoors
My parents are from the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, where miners from Cornwall emigrated to work in the copper mines. So pasties have been a favorite of our family for years. And we do call Swedes, Rutabagas, and they are essential for a Cornish Pasty! Thanks for the fun video.
I always love these videos. I even have a playlist of some of my favorite that I enjoy binge watching
I'm watching this just after breakfast and now I want one too! :D They look wonderful. Simon! You bake, you make, you hike, canoe, camp, bike, build -- there's so little you haven't done over the years. I am in awe. Hello to Ginge too. Good to see you out together. By the way, the shot on the mossy log with the clean newish board and the food prep - gorgeous! Your photography is lovely.
I like these covered in brown gravy!
Spot on them Simon 👍👍🍻
As a Cornishman I'd say they look proper .
Great seeing u back......
Hmmmmm......pasties......can't beat em!
Awesome and outstanding as always.Thanks for sharing and taking us along
Cornish Pasties are fabulous; thanks for the quick recipe!!
Brilliant video, always a pleasure to watch, plus Cornish pasties in Cornwall, what's not to like. We could almost smell them!😋
Love the Cornish Pasty! Perfect hand held snack!
I'm from the US, Michigan. Pasties are a staple in our upper peninsula. They were popular with the copper miners.
Glad to see you back. Very nice trip out there. Your buddy has a nice place there.
Hope to see more on a regular basis again. Really hope y'all enjoyed your vacation.
Gid bless and stay safe on your travels.
Glad to see you back Simon ❤
More videos. More often. More reviews of MREs. More historical places. More hiking, biking and canoe camping. More canoe sailing. More Ginge. More instructional videos. More Simon!
17:40 - I think that expression is a “needs more pepper” face. Great effort and outcome there. What a great little outdoor space to do the bushcraft too!
What a lovely place.🌄
God Simon!!!! why do you have to make me so hungry all the time!????!!!!! LOL, Fabulous job my friend! See you soon!
Amazing that you cooked such a yummy food in the outdoor setting! Great job!!😊
Looks delicious! I've got a Cornish pasty for dinner this evening, can't wait. Yum!
In upstate NY, USA near Rochester, we call it a rutabaga. Some folks call it a waxed turnip. Delicious cooked and mashed with some potato. 🤤
Cornwall won't hate you; these are 'travelling meals' and impressive to see you make them in camp. Cornwall may hate me, however, as I make them from left over barbequed lamb shoulders instead of beef.
Well done, Simon! Bravo!
Those looked so tasty. Now I am hungry. Thanks for sharing.
Oh my gosh, I have missed your videos. Glad to see you back. Have fun!
You are stressing to watch , slow down and relax , enjoy your time making videos !
Excellent , the
Cornish pasties look brilliant .
Simon those pasties looked amazing , could sink my teeth in to one right now. Good job 👍🏻
Great job Simon, pasties looked amazing! Made my mouth water
Congrats, Simon! I’m pretty sure that they will let you return to Cornwall!
I didn't think this was possible. Well done!
