I really enjoyed watching this, thank you. I recently got an Austrian aluminium mess kit and I'm not looking forward to frying with it. I am used to seasoning cast iron pans, but apparently its a slightly different deal with aluminium. Apparently things just want to stick to it until you've developed a brown "film" of baked on oil on the surface. Impressed by your flint-and-steel skills btw. I have been practising with mine and I can reliably get a spark, but I've not yet managed to get from "spark" to "fire". Thank you for the honest no-BS video.
Сначала надо новую алюминиевую посуду хорошенько вымыть, после прокалить! Цель процедуры по подготовке к первому использованию - закупоривание пор и создание своеобразной защитной пленки. Дело в том, что алюминий имеет микропоры, поэтому и возникает пригорание. Прокаливание помогает их заполнить до появления момента прилипания готовящихся блюд ко дну. 1) Бабушкин метод с солью. Чистую, насухо вытертую сковороду поставьте на плиту и сделайте максимально слабый огонь. Дно засыпьте крупной поваренной солью слоем приблизительно 1 см. Подогревайте 20 минут, затем дайте полностью остыть. Освободите дно от соли и протрите мягкой тряпочкой, пропитанной рафинированным растительным маслом. Пользуйтесь через 2-3 дня. 2) Налейте растительное масло в таком количестве, чтобы дно было полностью покрыто. На медленном огне подогревайте его в среднем 20-25 минут. После остывания ополосните чистой водой без применения химических средств. Пользуйтесь посудой спустя время (1-2 дня). 3) Прокипятите воду в сковороде, затем слейте. Оставьте высыхать естественным путем, не вытирая. Нанесите равномерно на поверхность растительное масло и не пользуйтесь обработанной алюминиевой посудой несколько дней. Лучший способ надолго обезопасить алюминиевую сковороду от пригорания - повторить прокаливание несколько раз. Удачи! 🇰🇿
British army mess tins are crap for cooking this kind of normal food, everything sticks like sh*t to a blanket, they are too thin and completely the wrong shape, they are designed specifically to cook the issued ration packs, originally these were tinned food, you pierce the tins, stick them in water and boil. These days its boil in the bag rations, again stick it in the mess tin, add water and boil...usually with one mess tin acting as a lid over the other one ...then when the foods cooked you brew up with the water. used like this they are pretty good, for anything else they are crap. Using mess tins to cook normal food is like trying to eat soup with a fork instead of a spoon.... you can do it, but its very messy, it takes longer, your food gets cold and its pretty pointless.....just buy a cheap set of camping pans.
I like it, haven't had any problems with it yet, anything that sticks to it can easily be removed with a wire or chain mail pot scrubber but if you use cooking oil the sticking is greatly reduced
I saw a video from a professional chef who puts water in with the bacon. Seems counter intuitive, but it helps nicely brown it and crisps up. I do it all the time now at home. I’m thinking it would be perfect for mess tins.
I'm gonna be honest - That was painful to watch. But I feel the pain as I have been there done that, Spent more time tending the fire only to end up with undercooked burnt food and eggs that will just not part from the pan. I have now 'Seasoned' my larger mess tin specifically for cooking egg based food. Keep up the experimentation, I'm gonna watch your 'Take Two' now.
Top video mate, made my own cowboy coffee in the woods after watching this. Didnt work as well as I'd hoped but tasted nice still. Love watching your videos for ideas though.
In Finnland we drink coffee most in the world. This kind coffee we call 'soot pot coffee'you must make this way. Put (7 gr ) full tea spoon coffee per cup and put it boiling water. Take away when boil hard. Same thing do it three times. Then put litle cold water and let stay a moment. Salt is older habit from north.
Nice relaxed video 👍 made me hungry. Get yourself a collapsible fire bellows - cheap to buy and easy to carry and will make a world of difference for you.
Looks like a good meal! I might need a night snack now... How are the bugs over there? The midges were out in great numbes when we went camping this weekend, even with bug repellent they took biters where ever they could smell flesh. Nasty things they are. Kinda tempted to buy a thermacell but the refills are damn expensive. The spot we were in had lots of sheep, ponds, marsh and coves... great spot for the bugs to multiply. Think there still are a few down in my lungs after I got a mouthfull. Bugs makes me miss winter! I keep forgetting the cutlery, can't even find my spork now hehe! Had to do a quick carved spachular for the pancakes for breakfast. Take care!
Always best cooked outdoors! lol I never noticed any mosquitoes of ticks yet we had a few squitors a few weeks back when we had walmer weather but nothing since the temp drop. plenty of other bugs flying around, i swallowed a fair few aphids lol the bitey/stingy ones seem to have disappeared here. Next time i go to the wood al have to make a spatula, i need to make a new axe handle anyway lol
Its was very good! yea it was from etsy, think it was the last one the seller had, varusteleka the only others i have seen selling them but they are out of stock as well lol
Nice video! Was wondering what do you think about the aluminum causing Alzheimer’s thing? Do you think old aluminum mess kits and canteens are safe? I have both aluminum and stainless steel mess kits and for a while I stopped using aluminum because people were saying it’s not safe but now I don’t care.Too many cool old mess kits and canteens made of aluminum so fuck it.
Thanks, any ingested aluminum is filtered though the kidneys and passed out in urine so i don't see any problem with it as long as the kidneys are healthy, My grandmother lived to 90 and she never used stainless cookware

your video was not didactic because you edited it and removed all the parts where something unforeseen occurred in the process and/or adjusted some accident.
I don't keep the camera on all the time and only record what's worth showing at the time. Every youtuber does this unless they are live streaming it's not realistic or practical to upload straight videos as the video would be hours long and upload time would also be hours. No accidents or anything unforseen occurred so not sure what you are on about.

Excellent a guy who shows it real,not a perfect fire on the 1st try thats reality,ty great job.
... now I understand the meaning of `mess kit`...
my grandfather always said "no one ever learned anything by doing it right" lol!!
Fantastic video. Cheers on the fire start, from Georgia USA.

For using damp materials to start that fire you did quite an excellent job to get that roaring fire going!

How to ruin your breakfast, fair play for posting it

I’m watching this video From India at midnight 12:06. Now I’m starving need something to eat. Going to kitchen 😅
Instead of a pocket billow, they have those telescopic metal tubes that you can blow through.
You didn’t cheat. You managed the situation and was prepared. Nice video.
what a mad guy, full english even in the woods class
Britania rule the WO0d!!!
He's missing the other items especially the black pudding
Top video mate, made my own cowboy coffee in the woods after watching this. Didnt work as well as I'd hoped but tasted nice still. Love watching your videos for ideas though.
Great cooking in a survival situation i would try it. eating something is better than not eating anything know matter how it look.
Wet and damp sounds like new England 😜

Thanks for the tips i will try this next time.
So you have it really weak.
@@Chris66able ...but we drink coffee lot, several cups, not like espresso. I boil two liters a day.
@@erkkikarvinen1783 So do most people Mate..2 litres is not a lot.
Only me sometimes more, sometimes less...
Those are great cooking tins, i have a set and that are amazing for frying stuff and boiling water for a cuppa
Little trick with coffee is to pour a little cold water on top of the coffee in the cup. You will be amazed how smooth it tastes
Cowboy coffee, but you didn't put the egg shell in.
Nice meal.
I like the cup. Glad to see its not chipped or flawed. I may order one soon.
I like it, the handle gets hot but it cools down after 5-10 mins. It feel like i could drive a tank over it without damaging it lol
@@JohnGoesWalkabout
Ordered on right after watching
@@JohnGoesWalkabout you could wrap some thin paracord around it
You can use tent pegs on the stove to act like a grill camping tip
Great video mate. Keep 'em coming 👍
Thanks mate, will do!
Definitely a British breakfast if you eat beans.
Bacon does it for me
Thanks mate
Nice relaxed video 👍 made me hungry.
Get yourself a collapsible fire bellows - cheap to buy and easy to carry and will make a world of difference for you.
Why are adding big size sticks in to that small wood stove
When do you drink the beer?
Tremendously entertaining,
Excellent video mate
I'd of pit the eggs and bacon in with the beans to keep them hot food vid tho

Hope you enjoyed it, how was the coffee? Really like the cup, sure you said that was from etsy?
Its was very good! yea it was from etsy, think it was the last one the seller had, varusteleka the only others i have seen selling them but they are out of stock as well lol
@@JohnGoesWalkaboutThat's good, your have to get a grinder. Will defo try to get myself one
J'ose espérer que le gars pratique la marche de manière sportive vu les calories engendrées....
Why don’t you use a camping gas stove? it saves messing about with twigs.
Personal preference.
Why not just put the beans on the fire in the tin
Good friend...
Try sliverbirch bark and wood to make ya fire.
How do you clean them?
Steel pot scrubber
Hi. What kettle are you using there?
Its Eagle products 0.7 kettle

I bet all the teflon coating, or even worse all the food additives we stuff ours selves with everyday aint no better.

This mess kit is no cover ?
no, the other half is ment to be used as a lid if one part is only being used
Great videos mate, new sub from me!! 👍🏼🛶🔥
Only good
Le bois est humide.....classique.. Mauvaise idée...!!
