    We have been living offgrid for 8 years and these options work well for us. For everyday uses in the summer we have a natural gas full size stove with oven changed over to propane.We also just got a char griller acorn that is an excellent cooking option. It's the best grill we have ever owned. And for winter a traditional wood cook stove. We have 17 acres so we have an endless supply of wood and can also make charcoal

    Homemade alcohol stove (made from 2 soda cans, a nail, and rock-wool).
    Alcohol is easily made (and therefore renewable), clean burning (no Carbon Monoxide).
    The stove itself can be designed to deliver a constant and safe amount of heat, though I would advise using a floor tile to protect kitchen worktops 😁😁😁.
    Like using a Thermos flask as well.
    Have used it myself to cook pasta and rice, and would think it would be perfect to cook freeze-dried food for a hot meal.
    Loving the channel, even more.
    Peace and Blessings to all

    Made a 'hay box' a few years back to save fuel and used expanded polystyrene as insulation. BAD idea. The heat from the pot started to melt it slightly and released gasses that permeated all of my food, which had to be thrown away. It was foul smelling (and I did try tasting it, yuck!)

    Thank you so much! Y'all are amazing! Having lived through the recent Texas snow-mageddon, with no power for 4 days in -2 degree weather, we are researching safe options for cooking and heating. Thanks so much, you're clear, concise and practical! And y'all have a great sense of humor!

    A very excellent and informative video. Thank you for this useful information.

    An experiment that I contemplate but have not performed yet involves outdoor charcoal cooking. I do not have a camp dutch oven but do have two stove top cast iron dutch ovens. One is 4 quart capacity and one is 7 quart capacity. They seem to nest reasonably one within the other. What I plan to do is line the larger pot with aluminum foil, light 8-10 charcoal briquets and distribute them around the bottom and attempt to cook a stew in the smaller pot. It may be necessary to prop the smaller pot on metal chopsticks to increase ventilation a bit. I think this may be a fairly economical way to use charcoal but will find out when the outdoors is a bit cooler than now.
