I can't eat pork anymore, it's one of the foods that flares my eczema, so turkey sausages and turkey bacon have taken it's place. Can't complain though, it's healthier for me.

    • @Woodsman_wildcamper
      @Woodsman_wildcamper  4 роки тому

      @@BOOSTEDLASER hi buddy, the pan is great, the non stick coating works really well. The only issue I've had, was self induced, when I wasnt careful while cooking some pork sausages over the fire. The sausage fat caught fire and burnt the non stick coating at the front of the pan. So I only have about half of the pan that still retains the non stick coating. I can still cook on it, I just need to be careful while cooking eggs, and make sure they stay on the non stick portion of the pan. There is a bit of weight to it, so it's not a lightweight, backpacking option. But other than that it's a great pan. Hope this helps, thanks for watching, take care 👍

    Handy wee spot you found there. I had Scots pine tea the other day, I let it steep in boiled water for 5 minutes, didn't really have any taste to me, how did you find the spruce tea?

    • @Woodsman_wildcamper
      @Woodsman_wildcamper  4 роки тому +1

      Cheers buddy. Yeah some books say to steep the needles in water, but I don't find it produces much flavour that way, if at all. When i do it, I boil the needles in with the water, it gives more flavour. I haven't used pine all that often (spruce is more common in my area) - but i think it has a stronger flavour, again, when boiled in the water rather than steeped. Over all, it doesn't beat a lemon & ginger infusion teabag lol, but the spruce gives a nice freshness to a cup of hot water when it's cold. Thanks for watching mate, take care.

    Looks like you had that pan pretty far into a pretty hot fire. What's your take on the teflon over open camp fire flames? The description of this pan says to not use on camp fires, how's it holding it up? How many times have you used it similarly to how you did in this video? Notice any teflon breakdown? Thanks for any additional opinions, and for this great video.

    • @Woodsman_wildcamper
      @Woodsman_wildcamper  3 роки тому

      Hi mate, this pan is no longer with us. The wife threw it out after a camping trip as we'd left it in a bin liner bag and it got mixed up with the trash. But yeah, the Teflon worked fine over an open flame, you just need to be careful that any oil in the pan doesn't catch fire or it scorches off the Teflon coating. Its a chance I took. The scorching happened really early on, we'd used it multiple times after that incident, being careful to keep food away from the scorched area to prevent sticking. To be safe though, best to use it over a gas stove, its also quite heavy, its not a lightweight option. I haven't replaced it with another yet, still looking into alternatives. Thanks for watching, hope this helps.
