    I made mine from fire brick just to be on the safe side a few years ago. Placed it on the edge of my paver patio and like you mentioned I got a gas stove grate for the top. I’m in the Deep South, so when the temps cool off I cook on it., soups, stews and cobblers. Even made some Dutch oven bread. It’s fun to use and I clean up my yard for “fuel”. I have made morning coffee and breakfast during power outages from hurricanes. Heat is intense hence the name. Really glad I have it, cause you just never know. Thanks for what you do.

    Gotta admit...You ROCK, LADY!!!
    At the start, my inner engineer said, "she's gonna need some kinda mortar (or mud, at least!).
    But no, works well enough.
    Best of all...like some others,
    I GOT BRICKS!!
    Finally, something I can have a go at.

      It's pretty cool. Pair it with a haybox and it's perfect. Twigs and sticks need to be constantly fed into it which isn't a huge problem, but I love getting it up to temp, tucking it into an insulated box and forgetting about it until dinner.

      @christines2787 Před 2 lety +1

      @@nancytabor8302 - Absolutely. A haybox is like an off grid slow cooker. Its a great method for stews, soups, and rice. Once the heat goes off, you don't have to do anything but stick it in the box. No.stiring. No peeking. Those would let heat eacape.
      My haybox is a Styrofoam cooler. I have a pad filled with sand on the bottom. I glue mylar blankets that reflect heat on the sides. Bring your food up to a good cooking temp using as small a pan as possescape. I like cast iron. No further energy is required at this point. The goal is to keep all that heat and put it to use.
      When I put the pot in my cooler. I tuck sand filled socks around it and another sand filled pad on top before I close the cooler. The sand, reflective mylar and the cooler itself all help with heat retention. It will cool over time, but slowly. Always use a thermometer to make sure the food hasnt dropped into the danger zone for bacteria.

    I think I watched about every rocket stove video there is. I came up with all kinds of ideas for the first one but after trying a few, the type you show is the best. This is definitely one of those KISS projects. What really is amazing is how easy they are to make and how efficient they really are.

    Now, I see why your fans LOVE you. You share so much useful info and cheap alternatives. I never seen anyone else do this. I will be making this. I have tons of leftover bricks from my house, but they are the ones with holes in them. I do have the bottom slab pieces. I hate cooking in my house because things pop. I will definitely do this to fry burgers on and other things that need high temps. You are amazing. I am pretty new to your channel, about a couple of months in.

    I have watched a number of videos recently like this, all from somewhere in Asia. This is the first time I've seen one like this without mortar and just using some concrete and regular bricks just stacked up. This is exactly like I've been thinking of recently. I watch those videos and I think of how I would do it and have been thinking along these lines. Especially when you're first doing it, building it this way without mortar would be good because if it doesn't come out the way you want, all you have to do is take it apart and start over. I think I would build maybe two or three like this side by side so you have multiple "burners," but you only need to light as many as you need at a time. I've also been thinking of how to create an oven, what I could use for a metal box to surround with bricks to do with this also.

    I have some bricks too, but not enough for a rocket stove, however, I have a fireplace and I saved the oven racks from old kitchen stove. So, 4-6 bricks on either side, set a rack on top, build small fire underneath and heat water or cook.

    I've had one of these for years that I use on my deck to make chili in the winter and breakfast frequently. I have one more layer of brick on my chimney as it seems to draw better, and I use an old Square gas stove grate on the top of it. If I ever have to bug out I can load it in the back of my pickup one brick at a time and always have a way to cook and heat.

    After doing A LOT of canning last season (Doing big jars of tomato sauce that needed to go for 45 minutes) in a BIG water bath canner that took like an hour just to get to boiling itself(!) it occurred to me that I was probably wasting a lot of $$$ in cooking gas. Also having that much water boiling indoors adds a lot of heat&humidity to a house and I live in a humid region... I can see this being super beneficial for stuff that requires long cooking times because you can burn basically whatever junk wood laying around in your yard and so its basically free to run. It would be perfect for running a water bath canner or making homemade bone broth that needs to boil for 8-10 hours but you dont want to blow up your gas bill...
    Anyway this is my longwinded way of saying this still has uses even when society is running smoothly.

    I have other means to cook but as a backup I have built one like this and took apart and stored in my outside building. I obtained 5 or 6 FREE pallets and took apart and cut the pieces in about 15 to 16 inch pieces and stored in my building so I can take a hatchet and split into small pieces as needed. I got the bricks and pallets free amd now have a backup to cook. I estimate what I have would last me a couple months as I find more fuel to use around my area I live. Great video.

I have a ton of bricks and am going to set up one as a just in case so its ready, I have 1/3 acre lot with almost all of it backyard, so I can pick an out of the way place. Thank you so much for the video and I loved how you showed not just described the how to aspect.
