Hey Guest, Early bird pricing on the Summer Moot (29th July - 10th August) available until April 6th, we'd love you to come. PLEASE CLICK HERE to early bird price and get more information.
The best results I have had were in my Dutch Oven - see the review - second best on a cast iron bake stone - inherited....
Stick it on a flat bit of wood propped up at an angle near the fire. Then you dont need to hump a lump of cast iron on your back.
Hi Steve,
I use a 12" GSI hard anodized aluminium dutch oven. Been using for a number of years now. Can roast, bake, fry and generally just cook the hell out of stuff. Use it at home and at camp. Weighs in at 6lbs 2 oz, a lot lighter than cast iron ones completely non stick and has a very high "camp cooking envy factor" (CCEF) only rivaled by my Cobb oven.
Will take enough stew to feed around 10 folk... we have to make it hearty though LOL. I will say that I rarely take it for one person day jaunts... use my ancient MSR "backpackers oven" kit for that, ( not been available for a number of years though I think I have a couple spare if you want one... message me if you do).
Also when baking there's a knack as to how much in the way of coals to put above and below, again ask as I think I've a PDF guideline on it I can forward.
You can tell that my mate and I were called the "chuck wagons" in the 4x4 club I was in cant you!
You can see the GSI "Dutchy" here http://www.gsioutdoors.com/detail.aspx?c=9&sc2=60&p=50412&lu=%2flist.aspx%3fc%3d9%26sc2%3d60&
It cost me around £40 when I bought it though I think prices may have gone up since.
Never trust a thin cook.

Non stick trangia pan. Whatever pan you use slow is the best way, and a domed lid on top will make it rise more. Or forget it and make/take some Staffordshire oakcakes, loads nicer! IMHO.
Gotta agree with Steve48 on this - just picked one up from ikea today. amazing for the price. not for the back-pack tho'

They are nice cakes you can cook in a dry pan, no need for an oven and are very tasty; on there own, with jam, with a little butter or a drizzle of honey, well worth trying out as they are an easy camp food to make.
