Especially in the colder weather splitting your wood a bit smaller will help to not bring the fire's core temperature down too much when adding more fuel 👍😎 Firebox fire management is just a little different than a ground fire. For your first Firebox cook-up you did a excellent job!👍😎
Well thank you Steve, I really appreciate that. Next time I will uses smaller pieces of wood, they were also a big tall I think but it’s a learning process with the Firebox. So much can be done with it & I’m watching your videos to learn, I love the engineering and how much thought has gone into it. I’ve used the Firebox nano on a few occasions and that is an also very good little stove 🔥👍
I know, I just wanted it to look nice plated up but I got distracted by some dog walkers coming over to ask me what I was doing and it nearly went cold while I was talking so I rushed it onto the plate 😬
Well thank you, it was rather nice wouldn’t have been the same without black pudding. Having it out in nature made it that bit better. Kinda making myself hungry now thinking about it 😋
Mushrooms last as they need the least to cook and like sponges being porous soak up all the fats and juices needed to cook the meats etc! Presentation was a bit iffy but as someone once said. even the most expensive most amazingly prepared and displayed food, all ends up going to make a Turd!!! :) great video though! cheers!
Yes I agree presentation was definitely a bit iffy, I had some dog walkers come over asking questions just as I was about to plate up. I then rushed it on the plate to quickly eat it before it went cold. Thanks for the advise on the mushrooms, I always put them on after the sausages as I like them well done but I will bear that in mind ;)
Hi- great video, you’ve earned a new subscriber ;) A question: I’m new to bushcraft in the UK and I’m wondering- have you ever gotten in trouble from landowners/forestry commission people for starting a campfire in the woods? Or do you find campfires are generally tolerated? Cheers
Thank you, really appreciate that 👍 Well I don’t actually have a campfire on the ground as I think without permission it would be frowned upon. I only use self contained stoves like the firebox or Kelly kettle and make sure I leave no trace. So far I’ve had no problems. Actually on this video, I had two lots of dog walkers come over to see what I was doing. I had a good chat with one and once she seen my set up she was quite impressed. I was just nice and friendly, we ended up chatting for some time about the great outdoors, my breakie nearly went cold though 😬

@@lifesahobby This is very true and they were very nice sausages 😋
Beautiful location! And what a tidy piece of kit! 👏
Yes it’s a nice little stove, I’m looking forward to using it more 👍
Looks like a lovely day spent in the woods with your trustee Firebox Stove 👍😎
Yes it was, stove was great thanks. I look forward to many more adventures with it. Got a nice steak ready for it 😋
Love the video mate. My firebox is only the nano but it works perfect for solo camps and my needs
Thanks mate, appreciate that. The nano is a great bit of kit, I have one also and like it that much I bought the bigger one 👍
Look like a nice location, the stove works perfectly!
Yes it’s was a nice place and the firebox was really good. I look forward to trying a steak on it 👍

Thank you, I’m glad you enjoyed it. It was nice getting out, I really needed some of the outdoors and yes the breakfast was delicious 😋
I’m not an expert on stoves but I am an expert on full englishes and that looks immense😅 glad you included the black pudding!
