Baking Coconut Cake On The Beach In The NEW Firebox Ultra Cook Kit!

- Awesome Camp Oven System! Baking While Camping Just Became A Piece Of Cake!
I wanted to try baking a cake in the new Firebox Ultra Cook Kit using salt as thermal mass (between the layered pans) so I bought a yellow cake mix at the beginning of our Hawaii trip. After tasting some locally made coconut we realized how easy it would be to convert yellow cake mix Into a decadent rich coconut cake. I replaced the water with coconut milk and added a couple handfuls of shredded coconut. Tasted Great!
Adding the salt as thermal mass worked even better than I expected. It tempers the heat as well as regulating heat fluctuations. I was using charcoal, which provides an even low heat, but I think a small flame could also be used without high risk of burning the bottom of whatever it is that you're baking. I think this is the simplest and most foolproof baking methods I've tried. In this video I was using the eight inch Kit with the optional Shallow Camp Plate. The optional cutting board is also shown, but not used.

What I enjoy about this channel is that the videos are simple. I usually don't enjoy vlogs, but here it's like; minimalist, chill, innocent family time outdoors. No flashy music/editing, ultra lavish showboating, etc... Keep up the great work!
Edit: And you get to learn a few culinary things lol
I am glad you can appreciate what I am trying to accomplish. Thank you for the kind words, I am glad you enjoyed what you saw. Thanks for watching as well!
Good times Steve..never cease to amaze me bro..gorgeous back ground in Hawaii...almost at 100k subscribers...keep em coming
Finally broke past it over the weekend, SO awesome!! Thank you for watching and supporting Sean!
You my friend, would be able to survive an apocalypse! Hats off man! Love from 🇨🇦
I'm just not sure if I would want to. Sounds quite stressful. Thanks 😊
Especially with all that store bought food and bags of charcoal
Can wait I can wait I just ordered 3qt billy baking kit and and bag ....thank you for what you do!!! ...Happy Father's day
Thank you Mario Happy Father's Day to you! Hope you get a lot of opportunity to enjoy experimenting with your firebox baking set up 👍😎
You do a great job with your videos. Nice to know the fellow that designed, and came up with the firebox truly enjoys the Back Country and Wilderness.
Thank you for your comment Tom, it truly is appreciated!!
Hi Steve, wow! Love your salt trick. Perfectly done cake...you forgot the coffee..jk, lol. Blessings!
I am glad you enjoyed it!! It was there for sure, can't be out and about without a cup of coffee. Thanks for watching!
@@fireboxstove Glad to hear you had your coffee. The wife and I were starting to get worried! She firmly believes all cake is coffee cake!
@@Loki1620 Lol that is too funny, tell her she is correct!! I am glad you all look forward to my coffee moments, they are the best camping after all.
@@fireboxstove Can you tell me where you got your coffee maker from and or the exact name of the model you use? I've been meaning to ask you this. Thanks!
Looks delicious as usual, Steve. Glad to see it looks like the thermal mass experiments have yielded a leader. I hope you and the family are enjoying Hawaii.
Thank you! Yes, it works great!
I would easily eat that entire cake! YUM!
Thank you, it turned out delicious!!
What can I say the Man is a MASTER with those " FABULOUS FOON TONGS "
So relaxing to watch with the sound of the waves.
Thanks for the recipe ideas!
I agree, such a peaceful place. Thank you for watching and I hope you enjoy the recipes!!
Something about this channel is fricking addictive. 👍😋
I am glad you enjoyed watching, thank you for the comment!!
Thanks my brother thank you very much for sharing a video! From Japan 👏👏👏👍Like
Thank you for watching, I am glad you enjoyed it!!
You can,t beat the first peice of cake when its hot,and that looks gorgeous,well done.
I would have to agree there, so delicious!
Outstanding camp cake! Thanks for the video!
Thank you for watching!
I think you’re awesome Steve, I really enjoy your videos my friend
Thanks for the kind words Nathan!
Glorious cake on the beach ftw!
Yes it turned out incredible!!
Awesome!! I have to try this!
I think you would love it. Thanks!!
You are a really good camp cook.
Please upload longer videos. At Least more than 25 or 30 minutes. I love enjoying your videos.
I will have some new ones coming soon once it warms up here in Utah. Thanks for watching!
What if Tom Hanks had the Firebox box in Castaway 🤔
He would have loved it!!
Wilson wouldn't have left him...
William Thompson 🤘
He would put it over his wife’s head for getting with another man lol
He would have stayed.
Quick tip for next time if you don't plan to reuse the Ziploc bag cut a hole on one of the edges to get everything last bit out I love using my Firefox
Thank you Victor!
The water in the background sounds so relaxing.
One of the best sounds out there in my opinion. Thanks for watching!
Did you bring enough cake for everybody? You are so proficient with the firebox stove.
Thanks for the demos!
Thank you, I have been at it a while now so I am glad I have improved through time. Yes cake for everyone!! Cheers!
Thanks for sharing your video!
KEEP MAKING VIDEOS..U TEACH PEOPLE ALOT
Thanks 😊
Where's the coffee...hahaha! Looks delicious.
It was there for sure, can't be out and about without a cup of coffee. Thanks for watching!
Brother, you need to create a special lid for baking using top fire source heat. One that creates distance between top fire source (coals) and top lid. It should also not allow any ash to get into the food. Lastly, it will need a handle to remove. Great videos and good luck!
Thanks for the suggestion and for watching!
That looked perfect! And you were only a short drive away from me! Thanks for all the great videos.
Thanks for the comment, great state to be in for sure!! I am glad you enjoyed watching.
hawaii and firebox, great combo, thumbs up
Thank you, I am glad you enjoyed it.
Just tossing out a “have you tried it?”… but I wonder when it is set up, if you could not flip the pans over the main fire? It sure looked great!
You forgot the cream cheese icing 🔥
The salt was an interesting addition. I’ve tried lots of things as a heat brake, ceramic pie weights work but I think the easiest is just an air space. I sometimes use the top of a large can with the pot support crossbars for a Trangia Stove.
That sounds like a great idea, I will have to give it a try. The cream cheese frosting would have been INCREDIBLE with this cake.
Just recently found your channel but love your videos. Was having a rough night, but watching you and your family on awesome outdoor adventures completely put my mind at ease. Love seeing how well you all get along, and how great of a time you guys have. Hope to one day be much like you guys!
That is awesome, you can get out there and do the same thing. You would really enjoy it I bet. I am glad this helped ease your mind!! I appreciate you watching and the comment. Take care!
Add some chocolate frosting from a can and you could get an Almond Joy flavor. Love your videos!
That would be delicious!! Thanks for the suggestion.
I will be using that most excellent tip in a from-the-box cake mix, with coconut, of course. Great idea, cocacolafiesta! 👨🍳🍳👍
Hallo,
Du hast einen leckeren Kuchen gebacken. Das mit dem Salzboden in der unteren Pfanne ist genial.
Ich lerne sehr viel von dir. Ich habe auch schon über deinen Link in Deutschland eingekauft.
Grüße von Michael an dich und deine Familie. Grüße auch an deine Hunde und die super Ziegen. I love ist.😁🐐🐕🦺
Thank you Michael, I am so glad you have enjoyed watching. Thank you for watching from Germany! I hope you enjoy your products, I appreciate the support. Cheers my friend!

Looks very yummy. I love coconutcake.😋🤗
Thanks for watching, it turned out very delicious!!
I would kill to have your patience. Idk how you do it but keep on rocking!
Thank you, I appreciate the kind words. Cheers!!
Nice!!!
It has to be said that Steve in an absolute expert at using the cook kit.anyone buying his stuff should not be put off if their attempts do not come off as good as Steve’s at first.when Dutch oven style cooking like Steve is in this video you need to get a bit of experience so you know when to manage the heat.he makes it look easy and at first it is not 😂as I found out.I’m 36 now and 13 years ago I’d of binned my kit because I would not have had the patience to master it.
Lol thank you? Thanks for watching, we hope you are getting better and better at using your kit.
Mmmmmmmmm. Cake!
Thanks 😊
Your videos are so satisfying to watch! 🤤
I am so glad, thank you for the kind words!
That looks really good. You do an outstanding job.
Thanks so much, I appreciate the comment!
WOW THAT IS AMAZING. LOOKS GOOD. SWAMP HUGS FROM LOUISIANA
Thank you Cathy, I appreciate it.
one of the best cook ,amazing!
Thank you for watching, I am glad that you enjoyed it.
Awesome thanks for the recipe
You must become one with the Firebox, it must be a living breathing extension of Yourself!! :) Awsome as always Brother, I Love Mine..
Lol yes that is the truth, glad you have this figured out Robert. Thanks for the comment!!
Wow outdoor cooking has sure come a long way!
It really has, it is so great. Thank you for watching!
Plan on making this in my stove!
Let us know how it turns out. Thanks for watching Kathleen!
Oh wow! This looks gorgeous 😍 I have a weakness for coconut cake let me tell you
Then I guess this video was just for you! Thanks 😊
Firebox Stove Haha I guess so! Thank YOU! 😁
Look like yummy color ~ huh !
Oh yum! I will have to try this one. I have baked pineapple upside down cake and cinnamon streusel cake on the Firebox with great success. I love the salt idea. I will try this cake next. (My wife gets really excited when I bring out the Firebox!)
That is awesome, you will have to let me know how it goes. Pineapple upside down cake is so delicious!! I am glad you guys are enjoying your Firebox stove and I hope you get to make lots of delicious desserts!! Thanks for the support and comment!
Good job Steve!
Thanks Mark!
Congratulations 100k
Thanks 😊
Hey man you’re about to hit 100k😀😀 just found your channel a few days ago and love the content , keep doing more long wilderness camping vids, Cngrats again
Thank you, I am now past it and it's pretty cool!! Thanks for the kind words and for watching!!
Yummy, a little crunched pineapple mixed with powdered sugar... I'm all in. Lol
Sounds like a good addition Tim! I'll have to remember that when I do this again for my family when we're camping! Thanks 😊
I hope you got more footage of Hawaii!
Please Double Up on the Coconut --Cake looks Delicious...
Thank you, I am glad you enjoyed it.
When you started pouring the salt in I remembered the Grandpa Kitchen video where he used it for baking a goat (whole) in a pan. I tried the bisquits in my pans on my last camping trip and made charcoal. Definately going to try the salt trick.
You will get it with time. The key is low heat on the bottom and more heat on top! A whole goal huh? Interesting!! Thanks for watching!
Yum
Thanks 😊
I really like the use of salt idea. I'll have to try that out if it ever stops snowing here in the Wisconsin Northwoods. The subbing the coconut milk was a great idea. The flavored coffee creamers make for some very yummy flavored cakes also. Canning jar lid rings may work as a nice spacer also, but it may be too tall for your pan set up.
That is a great idea, thanks for sharing!! I am glad you enjoyed watching! It has been cold here in Utah as well. The break in Hawaii was super nice. I hope you can get out soon as well. Thanks for the comment, Cheers my friend!
Awesome, subscribed.
Thank you Mark!

Man your like a chef with the firebox kit lol i think i might just buy one some day just to do some bbq 😂😂 maybe my cooking would become alot better
Thank you for the kind words, I am glad you enjoyed it.
Great Video Steve,,,
Could you please give a explanation for the layer of “Salt” in your bottom pan,, while baking,,,
Great looking cake,,!!!! Joshua
Thank your Joshua. The salt was to even out the heat so the cake wouldn't burn.
Got yourself a sub from Singapore 🇸🇬
Thank you for the sub, I appreciate that. Glad you enjoyed my channel. Cheers!
Hot coconut cake gives a shake to my bowels LOL. Good times

Wow!!!! think I said that about 5 times during the clip....
Thanks for letting me know! Left feedback!
Amazing vid👌🏽
Thank you!!
It wouldn't take a whole lot to turn that into a pineapple-coconut upsidedown cake. 👍
Good point I'll have to try that 👍😎
Hear pineapple upside down cake was pretty good cooked on a campfire as well
Sounds delicious!!
Where's the butter? I read below you had the coffee off set. That sure looked good, nice job.
Thank you for watching, I am glad you enjoyed it.
Almost at 100k subs!
Thank you! I finally passed it, it's pretty awesome!!
Looks great! Thanks for sharing. I’m trying this on my FireBox set up this weekend but I think I may try the cowboy plate on top to give the cake a bit more top space ? Thanks again for your recipe. 👍🏻
Thank you, I am glad you enjoyed it. You will have to let me know how it goes for you, I bet it is incredible! Glad you are enjoying your stove!!
100k!!!
Thanks 😊
Always wondered why you never seem to bring along bread to your fishing trips? It seems like a practical choice. It’s filling, light and lasts awhile. Is it personal choice or is there another reason you don’t bring bread?
Sometimes I do bring bread, just depends on the trip and how much I am packing. Thanks!
Wouldn't you waste less if you sealed the bag and slit a bottom corner, being able to easily squeeze all of it out cleaner?
I did have a look but not all 175 comments so may have been asked. On the salt thermal mass why not use sand or dirt its all around so don't need to carry something extra
I'm sure that would be a possibility but for me I would rather opt for the salt since I know what's in it and that it's food safe being that I'm putting it in my trusty fry pan. Otherwise I would want to be careful to wash my pan well after the project was finished. Thanks 😊
How about digging up some clams and ousters? Now that is one I would like to see.
If I was anywhere near the ocean I would do that in a heartbeat.
@@fireboxstove Future family roadtrip/video? Maybe you can take a trip to the West Coast and hit up Seattle, Oregon, or California coastline? That would be a nice video and good family trip. Not sure where you are from but you seem like you have that California or West Coast vibe to you.
It seems that the plate was too shallow and touched the top of the cake. Perhaps two pie tins and the pizza stone on the fry pan under the lower tin?
I know we didn't see it here, but can you please let me know the name or model, etc of the coffee press or set-up you use? New subscriber and I'd greatly appreciate it. My new addiction is your videos! Keep up the great work.
Here's a link:. www.fireboxstove.com/index.php?route=product/search&search=Coffee Thanks!
Hey awesome vidz dude! I've been wanting to get one of these and use it at the beach. Are these allowed on public beaches day and night or only in secluded areas?
Wonder if you could reuse the salt again? 😊
I think so. It didn't seem different. I think it is possible to burn the salt but it didn't seem burnt.
Looks like spanish flan dessert.
I WANT COCONUT CAKE
Very delicious!!
