Cooking
Cast iron, foil packets, and the one-pot rule.
One pot, many meals
The backcountry kitchen is a single cast-iron pan and a rule: if it needs two pots, it needs to be simpler.
What we make
breakfast oats + nuts + dried fruit lunch foil-packet fish, root veg, butter dinner one-pot stew over a bed of coals dessert bannock, cast iron, honey
Why coals beat flames
Flames scorch. Coals cook. Rake a bed to the side, set your pan in, and let the heat do the quiet work.
