What a great demonstration. Please continue the off grid cooking. You are a great teacher and very enjoyable to watch and learn from
Dearest Pam, proof of concept has never been stated in any other UA-cam homesteading video. You are my hero.
Just saw this video. Not sure if anyone mentioned it, but regular metal binder clips will hold your blanket corners just fine.
Thanks - I just used my coleman oven on our rocket stove today for the first time after seeing your video. I made cornbread from a cheap mix - I don't like the mix but it was the cheapest I could find to do a test with - it worked great. I didn't use the blanket but I got one of those two to use on windy or colder days. I had no trouble getting the temp up - today I had to work on keeping the temp down some. I do have a pizza stone in the bottom of the oven and may try putting a baking rack between the oven and the rocket stove to keep the oven bottom flat
Your experimentation sounds nice. Jim
I just ordered the Coleman Camp Oven to use on my Rocket Stove, after watching your video. Thank you for helping me with my decision!
Stampcrafter1: Glad we could help! Jim
I literally busted out laughing when you said, "we're going to bake these biscuits today that I cannot stand" 🤣🤣🤣
I was going to buy that oven for my rocket stove but I thought it would smother the flame. Glad to see you got it working! Great idea with the welding blanket.
😁. thanks!
I thought that comment about the biscuits was hilarious.
Thanks! Nifty oven. I've got 2 rocket stoves for power outages that happen often. For baking I've been experimenting with dutch ovens/ camp stoves. I use briquettes because I can control them more accurately. For baking bread, the trick is to turn the top 1/4 turn in one direction and the bottom 1/4 turn in the opposite direction every 15 minutes. Twice as many briquettes on the top as the bottom, or twice as many coals. But, the Coleman stove is so much lighter and easier.... Good idea about the welding cloth!
Thanks for your comments.
Very intelligent lady! , i call you professor. The best teacher and tutorials!! I say this almost every video
Wow, thank you!
AWESOME
I really enjoy your tutorial videos, very inspiring. Thank you 👏
Yes I call her Professor Homestead when I recommend her
Brilliant! I always enjoy your channel.
Thank you very much! And thanks for watching.
Great video AGAIN! Brilliant ideas with both the baking stone & the welding blanket. You really think things through. Thank you!
Brilliant!!!! I love your make do attitude with what you have!!! Thank you for this proof of concept!!!!
You are so welcome!
I am right there with you Ladybug!
Thanks for sharing your experiences!
The Martha Stuart of the prepping world!
Fossil fuels are what have made us great!
Wonder woman, great ideas, thank you...looking good in a gale video next, LOL xxxx would love SAME demo on a bio mass stove where apparently it produces electricity to charge phones!!!!!
So benefits of this vid:
1. FREE heat from collectable material from the environment...
2. stove top cooking
3. TEA making as can boil water...should have been NO 1 ...sooo important. to my existence...
4. soups, stews
5.oven baking wooooow
WOOOZEr all my needs met without NO SPEND ON FUEL after initial purchases...
GOING TO CHECK OUT YOUR LINKS ...
Manuy thanks for such thoughtful helpful presentations to you BOTH.. xxx n

It's so funny each day the video I see has been addressing a question I've had
Thanks!
Brilliant use of the welding blanket! You did it again!
In order to go hotter, I would try either stitching the corners together to make it more glove-like, or maybe just clothespin them together making them instantly adjustable. Slots could be cut in the blanket to align with the vents and the thermostat. This could be done utilizing the entire uncut blanket for maximum coverage. The front could be unclipped and folded back to gain access to the interior. You might even sew yours back on, but just across the center/top to facilitate opening and closing the door. the ends could be clipped at whatever position you prefer.
Love, Love, LOVE your videos!!
Thank you for doing this for us.Muchly appreciated.
Very cool, good ideas ! Tyfs!
Awesome video. Pam, have you guys ever tried the Sun Oven. I think those are pretty cool and seems to work great. I would think living where you do they would work great. Thanks so much for your channel, it has such great content
Yes, we have a Sun Oven. The temperature does not get hot enough for this artisan bread, although I have baked other breads in it that don't require such a hot temp. Thanks for your comments!
You can also use a carbon fiber welding blanket from Amazon. Ive held a propane torch to it and it would not catch fire so I think it would work good.
My husband just bought me the oven for my birthday. I can't wait to try it! I'll be cooking something this weekend. I'm thinking an apple crisp!
Susan: That sounds great! Let know what you cooked and how it turned out. JIm
Another great video! In a grid down situation, this would be great…thank you!
Glad you liked it! I am working on other grid down ways to bake bread as well. Thanks.
You are a genius....from the UK xx
Thank you! 😊
I just finish filling a 70 gal barrel with small
Wood pieces cut to fit in a rocket stove. That was quite a job. All from pruning my apple and peach trees. So safe wood to use with food. I think that should last for some time don't you think? They seem to be very efficient.
Well, I debated about making this comment, because it has nothing to do with the subject (for which I thank you), but what woman doesn’t appreciate a compliment, especially from another woman? Pam, you look positively radiant in the natural sunlight! 🌞
Tfs! Please stay safe you two! 🤗🙏💜
This lady is awesome! So prim and proper and smart, yet hardcore. lol
I would have been a straight A student if you had been my teacher. You make learning FUN.
That is a lovely compliment, thank you!
Very interesting and fun. I just got an Ecozoom Versa rocket stove. I haven't even used it yet. Already I'm interested in duplicating your experiment. I'd hate to think what would happen if that oven falls off of the stove, though. If I could cut a round hole in a flat surface and stick the rocket stove underneath it, I'd be able to set the oven on the flat surface without worry of it sliding off. I could repurpose a 3-tier metal cart to build an outdoor stovetop with a couple of these rocket stoves. Suddenly I'm interested in learning some metalwork skills. 🤔
You're awesome 👍
Just a thought about off grid: [this video may not be the best place to post but here goes]…if we all really do face what they expect is coming, and i believe we will, dont forget another source of liquid. The liquid in canned veggies can be used in emergencies to drink or cook with. So what if your oatmeal tastes like corn juice or carrot water! This crazy world is really making me use my brain. All liquid that is from canned veggies can be very helpful.
Just found your channel. Thanks for the great informative & concise videos
You are welcome. So glad you found us....welcome!
If you decide to try the oven liner made of foil, it's available at grocery stores. If you make a clip at the corners diagonally, set your oven on top of the foil liner. Lift sides slightly and it creates a tray and protective screen against the smoke. I hope you try it sometime when you are not busy with flood issues.
Have you ever considered a sun oven? I can see lots of sunshine in your videos, for baking bread. They seem to be very versatile.
thank you ! i have been waiting on the results of your experiment, i will be going off grid soon . very valuable info for the information thank you again
Glad it was helpful! And best of luck on your new adventure! Thanks for your comment and for watching.
I have that oven. Glad to see you review it
What a great idea to use a welding blanket and a baking stone to keep even heat - will certainly try that next time we pull our camp oven out. Looking forward to how it works with your artisan bread. Love being able to cook traditional foods in non-traditional ways.
I agree about the sense of satisfaction you get from finding not-traditional ways to cook traditional foods. I have high hopes for the artisan bread video...keeping my fingers crossed. Thanks for your comments!
HI,
Good video! I imagine the welding blanket could be used in thermos type cooking. I also use a Camp Chef Oven Dome. I use the idea of insulated cooking indoors to cut down fuel costs and to keep things warm at a even temperature until served. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
Thanks for the tips!
Love your table!
Thank you! 😊
Mrs Rose Red
I bought this pizza oven that fits on top of our 2 and 3 burner camp stove. We normally snowbird in AZ 6 months a year. My husband didn’t want to bring the camp stove and the camp chef stove oven . This pizza oven works great, admittedly you do need to turn buns about every 15 min butttt loook.
Row: Thanks for sharing! Jim
At first glance I thought that coleman was a safe! Now I'm wondering if I could just fashion my old unused safe into an oven! 😂
Magnificent!
I was so interested in watching what you were doing. When you said were going to bake these biscuits which I can't stand... I burst out Lol😊 I don't like them either!! I love your channel. Looking forward to making the artisan bread video
LOL--that was unplanned...it just came out. But it is true! I am so excited to do the artisan bread video after we proved the concept in this one. Look for it soon. Thanks for your comments, and for watching!
I laughed to! Shes adorable :)
I was just going to write RoseRed you are my hero and I see that the last post from Sharon she says that too ( :
Trendle: Thanks! Jim
I love your videos. Thank you for going to so much trouble for us.
You are so welcome! It is our pleasure to present ideas that are helpful to others. Thank for your comments and for watching.
👍👍
Good stuff! Thanks for sharing.
Our pleasure! Thanks for watchig.
So creative!
Thank you! 😊 Thanks for watching.
I love how you are so thorough in your "investigation" into using things for emergency purposes. I've watched a few of your videos and I've now subscribed.
Question, what do you think of canning water in glass jars to keep for emergencies? Do you think, if kept in a dark, cool place, that it will stay good? I know some prep companies sell canned water now.
Thanks for the complements. As far as the water for emergency purposes, we just wash them with hot soapy water, rinse, and fill them with fresh water, put lids and rings on them, and store them in the garage. If you have what you consider to be good water, why buy the water? And yes, some places, tap water is not suitable for drinking or storing and the other alternative is to buy bottles water and store it. On the other hand, if you store bottled water, make sure the water is bottles are safe for storage. Thanks for watching our channel.
I'm binge watching your videos...
Where did you find the baking stone you put in oven n size plz? Ty stay safe n Blessed
Sheila: You could do a Google: Pizza Baking Stones or just Baking Stones. Jim
The piece of blanket you cut off could be put on top of the stove, over or under the bigger piece, to conserve heat since heat rises.
I was thinking it could be used as a trivet. Also, on top of the stove may be good if its winter, just as extra heat retaining barrier. But Prof RoseRed looks like she mastered this.
I know this is an older video so this may have already been addressed, but while doing some research on alternative off-grid ovens, Coleman indicates that this oven should not be used over a wood fire. Do you continue to use this oven? Is it to your liking?
Thanks for the info! Jim
Have you ever tried a HERC oven? They cook using tea lights. They are safe to cook indoors and are larger.
Excellent. So you can't use cast iron bread pans or small Dutch oven s because they are too heavy i bet
Yes, you are right, Jim
Would stoneware work in the oven instead of the metal pans? Stoneware retains heat well, and, cleans much easier than metal pans.
It should work as long as it is oven proof. Thanks for watching.
"I don't like to use fossil fuels ... but hand me that Vaseline to start this fire, will you?" haha!!
I know, I know. Others have pointed this out as well. Silly me.
@@RoseRedHomestead I like your attitude! carry on!
I caught that too!
I was going to ask you maybe a pizza oven .Or a solar oven , but their not cheap .
What do you think of the Omnia Swedish stove top oven? Have you tried it?
Just got an Ecozoom. What are you setting yours on? Thanks so much for the off grid cooking information!
Pam or Jim, do you think a porcelain tile would be a substitute for the baking stone?
I have an ecozoom and wanted to keep the soot out of the stove. I bought a steel plate, but it took so long to heat and didnt let the heat transfer very well....then I put heavy duty foil, 3 thicknesses on the bottom, flaring out the sides. Everything was doing well until the first thickness started to burn through...still trying to problem solve.
Please let me know if you have.
Ps. My chocolate chip cookie test was phenominal!
ES: W had not thought of foil as solution to the soot. I am not sure we can do anything about it. The major problem we have is keeping the fire stoked and even heat, and sometimes the smoke. Jim
So through all of my testing I have found out that the steel plate is the answer to not having the soot/smoke go straight up into the Bottom chamber of the oven... But then the smoke started to follow the square bottom of the steel plate. Yesterday I found my answer. I now use a foil of oven liner on the bottom bottom between the steel plate and the oven. The steel plate evens out and maintains the temperature... And the oven liner foil blocks the smoke/soot away from the oven. There is no smoke residue inside the oven. (I have a baking stone on the inside of the oven)
@@esmiller4926 Could you post a photo of the steel plate with the foil oven liner? TIA
I love your videos! When you stock your food do you do it just for you and husband or whole family? Thank you
Our goal is to have a year's supply for the two of us, but we know if things get really bad, some of our children will find there way here, so we do stock up on extra.
Cool
Thanks.
Try a bit of olive oil and some dried leaves rather than Vaseline and cotton balls. You don't like fossil fuels, so Vaseline (petroleum jelly) is 98% fossil fuel...more fossil fuel than a mixed propane gas, actually. I like your vids.
Oh--you are right! I totally missed that one! I will take your advice next time. Thanks for watching.
I use lint from our dryer, paper egg cartons and a striking flint. The lint catches quickly and the egg carton gives it fuel. It is very light weight and can be packed in a go-back or back pack camping.
I swear to you I'm not making fun you or being mean, BUT, I really do find it ironic and hilarious you said you don't like using Fossil Fuels and only seconds later say you used Petroleum Jelly to light it 🤣
Yes, you are correct. We will have to be more thoughtful in the future so we do not contradict ourselves or confuse others. Jim
@@RoseRedHomestead Again, I want to reiterate that I'm not even being mean, it was honestly just that hilarious to me.
Just curious, are you in administration or teaching?
I was a professor of science education until two years ago when I was moved up to be the associate provost over curriculum. My passion is and always has been teaching! Thanks for your question.
I must say, you are such a delight. Your patient, calm, direct teaching/tutorials makes me think “I can do that!” Thank you Prof RoseRed. You’re a blessing and an inspiration as well as a CALM in this weird world we live in!! LOVE your channel. Thank you for all you do for us ‘learners’
Where do you purchase the wonderbag from please? Love your channel and you!
Stacy: Do a Google for Wonderbag slow cooker. Jim
Can you give us a link for that baking stone, so we can purchase one too? Thanks!
Here's the link, but it looks as if it is unavailable, but at least you can see the size and other info. Thanks for watching.
www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00HWD73QW/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_image?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I found one here: www.cookwarenmore.com/7-x10-toaster-oven-baking-stone/
I wonder if you could also use fire bricks if you dont have a baking stone. When our power went off for extended periods of time i use to put them in the bottom of the bbq and bake cookies or bread in it. The fire bricks worked the same way as the stone.
Pampered Chef has a small bar pan - a stone with a lip for say brownies - that's roughly 8x9. For this purpose you could even find a used one on eBay
You don't like using fossil fuel? What do you think happens when you turn on your electric stove?
Hi Pam. Where can one find that Coleman oven? Not on Amazon. Thank you. Love you and your channel!
Stacy: Do a Google for Colemen outdoor ovens. Jim
I just bought mine on Amazon about 2 weeks ago…after watching Prof RoseRed! LOVE this channel. I’m looking for a pizza stone now. I’m gearing up to make bread.
I can't find that baking stone that works. Would you please reference where we can find one!!! Thank you
Scharlene: You can look on Amazon for one. Pam will be putting on the Amazon Store in a couple of weeks. Jim
@@RoseRedHomestead thanks so much for your reply! Thanks for teaching us safe and wonderful ways to care for our families. I look forward to every learning experience!!!!
I have used charcoal briquettes as the fuel source and control the heat by adjusting the door on the stove. Perfect loaves of bread. Don’t trust the temperature gauge.
I have read reviews that state the same thing about the temp gauge. I have an infrared thermometer that I use instead and so far, mine is fairly accurate. Thanks for your comments and for watching.
@@RoseRedHomestead Hi, Are infrared thermometers calibrated to be accurate? I have a variety of thermometers in my home for multiple purposes and they all register different temperatures. Irritating...lol
@@thrumylens1 When they leave the factory they have been calibrated for accuracy. In my experience, they stay pretty accurate as well.
What size dutch oven did you use? 2 quarts?
Dottey: We have 6-inch and 10-inch Dutch ovens. Jim
Do you have a link for the baking stone?
Thank you,
This is the link, but it has been unavailable for a couple of years. www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00HWD73QW/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1
What size dutch oven did you use?
I love you. When can we come camping with you?
Haha! Thank you! Right now we are camping at Bryce Canyon in our trailer with all the conveniences, so I don't always "rough it"!
Where did you get the pizza stone?
I got that on Amazon.
What is the size of your cooking stone?
I think it is 7"x10" if I remember correctly.
What size is the baking stone?
Clint: I do not remember exactly: big enough to hold a 16-18 inch pizza. Jim
@@RoseRedHomestead ok thank you
To
Doesn't use fossil fuels, OK with eating soot.
I bet you’d like the sun oven. It’s solar. A little pricey, but well worth it. Check it out. Sunoven.com
I do like the SunOven! I have one. I believe in redundency preparation, so I have several ways for cooking/baking off grid.
@@RoseRedHomestead I so appreciate you mentioning you have a back-up to your back-up in other videos! It is currently snowing where I live and I think you've mentioned it snows where you live too. If we rely on only a solar oven, we're in trouble! I was extremely happy to see you try this out! I was wondering just the other day if this oven would work on a rocket stove! Thanks so much for sharing! I see you did this video almost a couple years ago, but I just now saw it. Thanks again! 😊
Oh, and another thing.... why on earth does this video only have 500 something like when it's been watched over 8K times! Shame on everyone! 😆
