- Reinvent your camp cooking with a plow disc cooker. Good bye to the days of lukewarm camp food and hauling around heavy pots and pans. If you haven't heard of this diy camp grill it is referred to as a Skottle or a Discada, depending on what side of the world you are on. We like to call it our Cowboy Grill. Season the wok just like your cast iron skillet . And before you know it, you will become the center of attention as you whip up incredible meals that are served piping hot. Even when serving large groups, due to the center burner and warming side edges of this wok, food will always be served HOT! Clean up. No problem. Just heat up some water and wipe the extra residue off.

i made mine from a wok pan, used a old steel tri-pod welded the wok skillet to the tri pod and burner on the wok and a way you go.
Yes!!!! You rock. Thank you so much for sharing this. It’s good for folks to hear this can be done DIY.
That’s the exact thought I had use a wok pan
Welding the walk skillet exposed you too toxic metals in the food every time you cook with that surface
I imagine the higher sides of the wok being a big benefit. Currys and even deep frying.
That's what came to mind!
I've had one for eight or so years, here's my thoughts. Its a great in that it replaces a lot of much heavier, bulkier stuff...meaning pots, pans and cooking stoves and whatnot. Its also difficult to cook on. The center gets very hot, no matter the burner setting, so you have to keep things in the center moving or they will get burned quickly. Things on the outside are kept warm, but you can't slow cook there. There is a definite learning curve with this device, but I keep taking it car camping with me every time!
Rogue109, I understand your point and it may be an issue for a lot of people. I don't find it a problem because I cook a ton of my meals in a steel wok and wok cooking is medium high/high heat (for many things) and a wok has the same issues you described above - you have to keep things moving. I see it as more of a learning curve but I think your comment is valid as folks need to know the pros and cons of their gear.
thank you for sharing!
Have you tried using it with a pot for slow cooking?
Plough disc cooking goes back decades here in Aus, but we just put them over the hot coals, so yours is a refreshing update. Cheers and good luck.
Over the coals is how my dad used one to fry fish! He’s from Mexico, they also use em to cook taco meat. Greetings from California :)
@@boredandagitated Recently my wife made me turn ours into a bird bath, welded onto 50mm box tubing, looks good so does the new Weber grill. Cheers
My family is from Guanajuato Mexico and I’ve never even thought about how unusual this method of cooking might seem! My dad had a big one for frying tilapia that he welded a bit of fencing onto so the lard could drop off the freshly cooked fish and back onto the disco. The taqueros in my moms town (and recently some around LA even) use em for making tacos.
Using one for camping is such a great idea! I didn’t realize the disks came from plows 😅 my dad grew up on a ranch, he’d have been disappointed to hear that from me.
bummer a pro Trump add came on and ruined it for me. Sorry
These always caught my eye, I appreciate how you brought it to life! I've been investing in my cooking supplies (w/ whatever is left after gas budget) and will have to seriously consider this route. Thanks guys!
May is working the new cooking set up! Everything she cooks looks delicious and she looks like a pro!! Go girl! 💐
Thank you so much for the kind comment! I will make sure May sees this. She will love it!
I was thinking the same thing. Restaurant quality meals while camping.
I always love to see May.
Another alternative is a rectangular cast iron flat griddle over one burner: area for cooking over the burner and warming areas away from it.
They seem to be a bit smaller with the largest cooking area about the same as a 16" disk cooker. However, they are inexpensive at $13-$45. Still, the largest rectangular cast iron flat griddle at $45 is about the same price as an South West Disk 18" Madrid cooking disk with legs.
Both the disk and cast iron flat griddle still need a heat source like a camp stove, fire, or dedicated burner. .
The skottle is nice but I think that Mae can put together a gourmet meal with a half a chicken and some leftover veggies. She definitely has skills 👍🏼
She will really appreciate this comment David. I must admit she is an incredible cook. Never a dull meal camping with her!
I must say that the skottel braai is one of the best ways to make breakfast while camping, we grew up with it here in South Africa and still love cooking on it. Thanx for the nice videos got a lot of nice tips for my first build!
I can see how a Skottle would be useful for a large group but for me and like many others I find myself cooking for no more than 5 people I just use a $55 Coleman gas stove with a $13 ozark trail griddle and I feel like it would do just as good as job for 1/4th of the price. Also the ozark trail griddle has a grill on the opposite side.
I made mine and also made the legs adjustable, have been using this type for over thirty years. A time saver and also does everything I use when camping. I just need to find a bag for it lol. Great video.
First thing I thought of when I saw the bag was a rope bag (like rodeo ropers use to store their ropes
Bag looks a lot like xmas wreath storage bag . . .just saying
These two hit the nail on the head
How did you make your own, please? I am a disabled mom with two kids in a minivan, homeless in WA state trying to figure out how to cook for us on a very low income. Thank you in advance for any advice!
@@charcat1571 I Purchased a tractor disc, a one inch flat bar, pipe for the legs-two sizes so they slip inside one another for height adjustment. The burner is a commercial swap meet special. Welded and formed. I bet a local welder can help for cheap. You can get most of the supplies at a local metal shop. I buy DROP cuts and save about 30%.
I've been wanting one for years. I've seen people using them on trips to Mexico and some street vendors too, but its probably been 30 years since Ive seen one.
They often used the plowing disc to make them there and here in the States too.
I'll definitely order one.
You can probably even make a gourmet deep-dish pizza with that thing !
Have to add that to my list of, "needs" for the camping equipment. Thanks for sharing this with us.
Love the “needs” list. 😆
I am from South Africa now living in Canada and brought a similar skottle with me when I immigrated nearly 20 years ago I had to modify it slightly to work with a 20 pound gas tank here in Canada but do use it from time to time they have been using these in South Africa for years
Love the Channel and the content! You are a blessed man with a beautiful family!
Beautiful family, amazing camp cooking tool
Even though we had just finished eating dinner when we watched this, I got “Jonesing” a little bit for some steak, potatoes, and asparagus. I almost bought a Skottle. Like the idea. I little pricey. There are some other UA-cam videos out there where people have made one. Just like cast iron. Really cannot mess it up. Just take a little time and season it again and good as new (probably better).
Haha. That’s what May kept saying as she was looking over my shoulder during the edit. This summer we’d like to try the baking season method just to see if it’s any different. Seems like most guys in the Overland industry like to throw theirs in the oven when they are re-seasoning.
Great video! I do love the grill disc.That food looks delicious!
Truly is delicious. And yes! I will get you one for home. Just not a $395 version. Haha.
Hi 👋 how are you doing?
I think it’s a fascinating concept and better for many reasons, number one being the possibility to keep food hot!
I bought a disc with handles welded on at Lowe's after reading about "discada" in Backwoodsman.
Its made from a solid disc with no hole in middle and cost $40-60 I forget what exact cost is, but had to have it!
Awesome that others are discovering the wok
May is just so cute the way she does things.Seems like you have a wonderful family
Aww, thank you so much. I will let May know. Camping would definitely not be the same without her.
I really like this idea , it’s kind of like a shallow wok but way more versatile. Thanks Drew !
Shallow wok. That’s it exactly.
@@PlayingwithSticks shallow wok that you can't move over the flame.
@@bjnslc Yes. Right on.
This looks great. I might prefer a carbon steel wok that I could pick up from the legs, but I don't know of an off the shelf solution that's this compact and light. I'll have to think on being flat vs high sides.
Yeah, my 12volt fridge changed my camp eating for the better. My #1 best addition. No more soggy hot dogs and lunch meat. Much healthier great tasting meals.
This was something we never thought we would purchase. The first year we had the channel we got to know a handful of people from the community really well. And once we got to know what they took out with them camping all of them had the fridge in common. We thought, if they all have them there must be something there. Wow were they right!
@@PlayingwithSticks Yeah, it is an expensive item, that I resisted buying. I changed my mind after I was was out for almost a month, and I kept running out of ice making me doubt the quality of my soggy food. Meals became more and more canned and high salt. I started to feel bad.
The fridge allows me better quality and variety. Much tastier and healthier, and more fun actually cooking instead of another "on a stick" meal.
My wife and I were talking about these when we went camping this past weekend. Its been around for as long as we can remember and we are in our 40's what we werent sure about was if it was common anywhere outside of South Africa.
Great video! I think the skottle looks really cool, but I think can do everything this does in a cast iron Dutch Oven for a fraction of the cost. The skottle would be faster but when I'm camping I'd rather not be in hurry; besides, I can also put the Dutch Oven on the propane stove if I'm in a hurry.
I love the idea of the disc grill, and I would pay $85. to $100. that's what it looks like it should be worth. And I have to remember I am only cooking for two.
To me that sounds like the right pricing as well. It also seems like there’s room in the market for someone to come in and undercut all these prices. Thanks for sharing Mark.
$395 is pretty pricey. A Blackstone is $140.
@@hershlawfirmpc A 17” Blackstone is good for two. The Blackstone doesn’t get as compact as the Skottle.
@@garretlewis4103 that’s true about the size and weight. I can cook for 4 on my 17” Blackstone. Even the 22” Blackstone is substantially cheaper than the skottle but the 22” is a monster in size
Good comparison. And a Blackstone is quality.
This is right out of every Mexicanos backyard. Been around for ages and perfect for tripas and such.
I’ve cooked onmine for at least 35 years, in Mexico. I made it from a plow disc, we call it a disco.
This grill and the food looks awesome!
Been camping a long long time. This is ingenious
lololol that "OK" after he said $395, like you're trying not to choke. Looks awesome, but yeah, that is pretty steep.
Oh man my brain gears were turning. I actually didn’t know what to say. What do I say next? I think I said $395 sounds like a lot to me? But… haha. It’s funny you caught that.
@@PlayingwithSticks Haha. By the way, you'll be happy to know that I just spent a day organizing our small homemade squaredrop based on many of your suggestions. We live in Utah, and have two boys ages 3 and 1, and I really relate to your channel. Thanks for your content!
Love the part where you can bake on it. Looking for a cowboy wok to sit on my single butane burner.
👍👍 Thanks!!!
Good day to you!
I am a senior rider on HONDA Cross Cub from Japan.
I am enjoying camping ,touring and upload video.
This is so nice cooking video!
Awesome!
Have a nice day my friend!
Check out our video titled something like how to build a bike camper. Can’t remember the exact title. I think there’s some glimpses of my supercub in that video. I actually built that trailer in the video to be towed by both my E bike and the super cub. Huge super cub fan. Mine is the Thai version though.
Similarly, we use a 2' diameter steel wok with free standing burner that we take with us when the family comes along and have easily fed about 20 people with it. They are very convenient and efficient. I believe the cost of my set up was half of the cost at Bass Pro Shop but was many years ago.
Love my mine! Worth every penny!
I have a RecTeq Matador grill that is similar and awesome!!! I have cooked burgers, dogs, then beef stew for over 75 people. Works so well.
75 people! That is awesome. Thanks for sharing this brand.
Nice! It sure would replace my entire outdoor cooking setup and fit into one of my storage bins. Thanks.
That is what we found. This summer we were able to reduce everything down to basically two pots. One thing I didn't note in the video. Is that the Kovea burner on this grill works very good as a standalone stove. So no need to haul an additional stove as well if you wanted to use it for boiling water.
I LOVE THIS WOK LIKE GRILL
Love these videos!
Thank you so much. This is always nice to hear.
I love this. For two people it is perfect.
And some of the discadas out there are quite a bit larger than this version.
This seems familiar to me I think my grandparents used to use one. If they did odds are it worked. Thank you Playing with Sticks!!
That is so cool! I am a sucker for any camping gear my grandparents used. One I trust them. Two I love the nostalgia factor!
“ Chorizo ??? ” ¡Ay, caramba !!! 😋
My grandpa used to make those and give them as gifts. He would make them from old plow discs from the farm.
How cool is that!
I have an Iceco 75 Ltr fridgezzer duo. Love the thing.
I made one of these several years ago. Works beautifully! I use a turkey fryer unit as the heat source. The flame is totally adjustable and the stand is the perfect height for me.
That is so cool to hear. I can’t even picture that turkey fryer has the heat source. I’m gonna have to Google that.
@@PlayingwithSticks the turkey fryer is simply a large propane burner mounted inside a steel framework. Just like a large camp stove burner. My disc is not as deeply dished as yours. They come in different sizes, but I used what I had, which works perfectly.
Yup same thing I do. I have welded many disks and end up loosing them to other camp cooks (hate to see grown men cry and beg)!!!
@@davidallen4552 fortunately used discs are readily available and usually free. I find that lard is absolutely the best thing to season the discs with.
Good product 👍. If I get back to camping I will look in to that.
Cheers
If you get back out there check out SouthwestDisc. Much more affordable and people in the comments really seem to love them.
Gotta get me one of these for cooking outside the camper… I think a Spanish portable paella grill would be similar and available here in the UK, but that South African cowboy griddle looks more sturdy.
Australia had something very similar in the 70's called a "Superchef Barbeque" which ran on propane, wood or sawdust.
One of friends had a homemade one of these the she used for SCA camping. It was awesome.
I love hearing comments like this!
how interesting! thank you for sharing!
You are most welcome!
This is so cool!
Good ol South African ingenuity! 🇿🇦
It’s so fun to know that people are watching this from all over the world
I first saw a "discada" cooker in South Texas in the mid 80s. The Hispanic culture has been using them for a long time. Just an old plow disk with the hole welded up over a wood fire or on a stand with a propane burner. Horseshoes for handles. I have one that I have been cooking and camping with for 20 years. They certainly have their purpose and I can see where it could be your sole source for cooking if you needed to keep it simple or because of less room. I think of it as just one of my tools for camp cooking. Flat griddles, dutch ovens and grilles are all handy to have for variety of methods and keep your food less one dimensional.
I like the idea of horseshoes for handles. Thanks for sharing your thoughts on this.
Great for emergency preparation ! Sure could have used that during the days of power outage after the ice-storm.
The price about made me swallow my tongue. I never imagined it would be THAT much.
You and I both! I wish you could’ve seen my face in the video where he tells me the price. Haha.
There are some people who have built/made these. Do a UA-cam search. The price got me too. Like the concept though.
Here in Santa Fe, they are called Discos and you can buy them in all sizes on every corner for an affordable price.
Do you have a video for your dish cleanup system? I saw some spray bottles and stuff... would love to see some details on that!
I have a 16 inch and a 26 inch skillet for camp and it's used the same, to cook the things in the center or one side and keep the other stuff warm. It only took 15 years of camp cooking for six months a year to learn to change up the ten inch skillets to the bigger variety.
Yeah. All my "little" stuff went into my camp cookware to "cut down size and weight," so I had a lot of cooking stuff to cover all their limitations. And as you found, it really is more about efficient function outside in the wilds, which is something your huge pans, cooking disks, and griddles are highlighting.
Yeah, 15 years to obtain the epitome of camping pan knowledge sounds pretty good to me.
Great suggestion here!
Haha. Yep, that is us as well. The only reason we got lucky and stumbled across this is because we see all the overland guys doing it.
You took me back in time with this video! My grandmother used to cook on one of these that was DIY made on the farm. How does this one do with wind?
Love your new channel icon! It grabs the eye. In terms of wind I’m not sure. The entire summer we never had to use the windscreen. I don’t know if that’s the placement of the burner in combination with a Kovea burner. Great little burner by the way. Or that we were just in really protected areas. I have a feeling it’s the protected areas part. My guess would be with a large service area of heat distribution in combination with the Wingard probably would you much better than most of the stoves I use. In terms of finished product. Put in terms of a speedy cooking process I could see the wind probably really increased that cooking time. I’ll be interested to hear what other people say to this comment.
@@PlayingwithSticks It looks like a pretty smooth setup. Grandma's was certainly a product of the farm with a tin foil wind screen. It was pragmatic!
The good ol’ days
I am from Texas, we use a disk from farm equipment trailer, for tilling, you can find them anywhere, we make tripas and fajitas on them been doing it since I was 4 or 5 and I am 60 now lmao
Off topic question; Have you reviewed/seen/demoed the Hero Camper Trailer? I'm interested in it's off road capability.
Brilliant!!
Agreed! Can’t believe we survived so long without it. 😂 Jokes aside side though, it really is a game changer in our opinion.
Good review!
Thank you for the positive words. Greatly appreciated.
A few beers in ya and all that food falling into the fire .. no rim on it!
That's an excellent video
Something similar to this is a paella burner. You can buy it just as a stand/ burner set, or you can buy it with the pan included. Not saying it's any better or worse than the skottle, just another thing to consider
Great video!
Thank you!
All I kept thinking is how lucky those kids are. Masterclass in parenting 👍
Bayou classic has the same kind of griddle for a third of the price. Add a Coleman bottle top propane stove and you’re set
Yay! This is the type of information we were hoping people would share.
Good information! 👍. Link to a website?
with a fold out table and this skottle you could ALMOST eliminate the need for a galley in the teardrop. i always wanted to build one without a galley.
Very true. Even though we had our dream galley this summer. We were surprised to find how much time we cooked outside of it. But, we’re also conditioned for this because our teardrop drop has no kitchen in it
.. kinda liking this ,, resembles a large Wok ... I imagine it could be used with a hose kit and a larger tank ...
looks cool
Awesome
Damn, blast from the past, we have been using these since the 70's in South Africa. Skottel is an Afrikaans or Dutch word. We used the original made by Cadac.
I am going to dig mine out now and make some breakfast.
Love it!
Interesting fact: Skottle is actually SEKETLOLO in a SESOTHO language(1/12 Native Language) , I got a big smile when I heard SouthAfrica being mentioned 🥺🫶🏾🫶🏾🫶🏾🫶🏾🫶🏾🫶🏾🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦PLEASE VISIT OUR HOME! It’s really amazing, the culture is unmeasurable, welcoming and friendly.
Thank YOU 💚😁
How would you drain the grease if cooking ground beef or bacon?
If like to know what plates snd bowls you eat with and how well your dishes hold up to knives, thanks!
In Mexico that’s how street vendors sell food. It used to be heated with wood but now of course propane.
FWIW, I bring my cast iron set with me in my teardrop.....Works on the stove or campfire. That said, once stuff is cooked it holds the heat til you're ready to serve. The only "extra" to bring is oven mitts. Clean-up is water and steel scrubbies (only)... no soap allowed. They can work just like a flat-top griddle, but put away in a small space. Plus, they're indestructible.
While a great idea for some, the reality is, you will often still need a 2nd or even 3ed burner for different jobs. For example, would you use this for making your morning coffee or tea? Or would you use that 1 pound cylinder and a small burner with a single cup?
There are many modles of this on the market, the Oris, colman offers a 4 in 1 system, eastman outdoors has a wok system.
In reality though you can buy just a ploughdisk wok or cowboy wok and cook with that either directly over the fire, over a colman stove, or such.
Though even then this won't be for everyone, you need to think of your cook style, and camp style. something about a big heavy cast iron pot, slow cooking chilly for hours on end over a low fire in the wood burning stove... while letting the bread cook in the dutch oven. slicing the bread in half and scooping out some of the insides, then filling the loaf with the chilli, covering with cheese then putting it in the wood stove for the last bit to get the cheese golden brown before serving.
Yes, there is more clean up to do, but sometimes the cleanup is worth it. Especially if you are making soups, stews, and such.
Remember, people talk about cooking different outdoors. And while in many cases thats true... they also forget that outdoors people can burn a lot more callories... especially with chores like chopping wood, collecting water, chasing the sun for solar panels.
One pan cooking outdoors. Cool 👍.
What are your opinions about canvas tents particularly ones by Eureka. My family and I were thinking of getting one, and we live in hot weather
i've had issues with it rusting. every time i cook...then clean (using a bamboo scraper & water), i think more and more of the seasoning gets scraped off until very little is left. unless i season it frequently...it rusts so easily. how to keep it from not rusting? e.g., what do you do w/ your skottle at night? do you take it apart and store it inside a camper/car/house? or do you put a bag over it? i'm finding that even nightime air causes it to rust (I live in Oregon)
Hi! There is a link to the making of this plywood table?
How many watts of power do y’all need ? I’d like to car camp with a similar set up but I’m not sure if I’m under or over estimating on my watts.
instant bubble level for your plow disc cooker, drop a 1/4 teaspoon of water in the depression of the cooker. Tada!
Haha. Someone else mentioned the same thing. I’m a bit embarrassed I didn’t think of that.
id for sure use my stand alone propane vs bottles with that but very cool
Have one as well, I prefer the BlackStone 22” with stand. Easier to store in the camper.💪🏽 Uses less fuel.
Good points there.
With the curved shape running toward the center, how does the it do with making eggs over-easy or scrambled?
Great content as always. We significantly enhanced our outdoor experience these past few years thanks to your videos. The skottle and the Joolca were on the acquisition list for this summer. Unfortunately/Fortunately, we have to move to Japan for the next three years and are limited in how much we can bring. Not sure if want to pay to store the TD and gear while we’re gone or sell it all and get new stuff when we return. What are your thoughts? How did ya’ll decide what to do in your similar situation? Thanks!
That’s such a tough one. Three years ago I would’ve said save your storage fee money and sell that thing. But then now with these two year minimum wait times and a 40% increase in price across the entire industry. It makes the decision a bit tougher. It was a really tough decision for us and we’re still not sure if we made the right move. We gifted our a little Teardrop to a young lady in Anchorage. Purchased a cargo trailer to store all our camping gear. This allows us to use the cargo trailer as a camper in a pinch, but also have a safe and fairly weatherproof place to store things over time. We do have it with family though, so no fees. The only thing I brought with me over to Thailand was my bio lite base lantern and the projector. Other than that I’m pretty much starting over here. But it’s super awesome. The camping year coming out of Asia is so fun! The Japanese and Taiwanese camping style right now is really influencing some great products. I wish I could give you some good advice, but again still not even sure we made the right move. But, if it was me this is probably the best price you’ll ever get for your teardrop. I assume at some point this bubble will burst and cost will come down. And I think more and more larger companies will be entering the market which in turn will cause the cost to go down as well.
@@PlayingwithSticks Tough decision indeed. We did get our TD for a good deal compared to the current market so could it balance out in the end. Either way, we’re excited for Japanese camping experience as well. We’ll likely bring a ground tent/sleep gear with us at a minimum. Look forward to your camping in Thailand content ;). Thanks for the feedback!
I am in a similar situation, but still in the US. I have paid $1,400 dollars in storage fees so far. I could have bought new everything in there. Except there are personnel things I can never throw away like old photos etc. So if I pay to store the items I will always keep, the remaining room in storage is free to store replaceable stuff.
Some of the things now have a slight mold smell - it would have been better just giving those susceptible things away.
@@PlayingwithSticks Great news: We found family to care for our teardrop while we're in Japan for 3 years so no fees for us too! In terms of documentation/insurance/registration, how did you protect the cargo trailer investment while you're gone? I trust my cousin but I want to protect both of us in case something happens. I appreciate your feedback, Drew and May.
@@ronc5093 So glad to hear that! And great idea by the way. It sounds like a win-win for them and you. I took the risk on the cargo trailer this go around. Like you I have someone I trust with the trailer. And I am a bit fortunate in that if the entire thing was taken I probably could replace that gear pretty easily and make a good video out of it. But, reading your post does have me feel like I probably should look into the insurance situation. Beings we are only gone for 9 months at a time I continue to keep the plates and registration up to date. Besides the insurance though I think best practices would be removing a wheel, following all our lock guidance plus lock up those chains, and my newest thought is once a year having the trailer babysitter throw a tracking device on it like an airtag or one of the devices with the monthly plan. As for the gear inside that is always tougher. Yes, there are some better locks, but I think the best route is probably to make it look non-enticing to a thief. Keep it under cover with old ugly tarps. Basically make it look old, unused, and empty. I wonder if there is some form of like a "renters insurance" that you could get for the trailer? So you would be insuring not only the trailer, but the contents inside.
I really like that discado, similar in price to the Firedisc. Like the fact that it is US made as Firedisc sources overseas for parts, no mention on the source of Skottle parts.
Good point on the source of parts. I should have asked.
Being from Sweden I've seen and used a similar muurikka product. A bit different as it doesn't have the legs directly attached to the cookplate, which looks and feels a bit odd. Been around for ages.
This has been in use for ages across Southern Africa. Farmers reusing their plough discs.
Great video. Many people focus on price, not what the price buys them. Packing, setup and actual ease of use are factors. Speaking for myself, if something takes longer that 20 minutes to deploy, it seldom gets used and typically stays home. As you well know not every camping day is weather perfect.
>$500 for the setup in the demo is pretty wack. I think if the price was closer to $200, that’s more reasonable, but that ain’t gonna put this guy’s kid through college
Yes, it almost forces most people into going the DIY option. I will say we have got our money out of ours, but we camp a lot! I was pretty sure this purchase was going to be a loss for me. I was pleasantly to surprised to find I really liked it. But would I do it again. Nope, I build one myself.
I knew folks would ask that so I made sure to put no link to the item in the description. Basically letting people make their own, buy this one, or find a different discadas. So no, no kickbacks here.
I'm curious about the spray bottles at the beginning. Is that just water? The cinnamon rolls were GENIUS!! I am definitely going to copy that idea. Mine is homemade and has a cast iron cook surface, so I'm a little worried about boiling water on it, but I'm still going to try it out.
I was going to ask the same thing! What's up with Mei just spritzing stuff and wiping it off? Need a future vid on it.
I just got a FireDisc this winter, same concept. Honestly I think mine is a bit overkill, but it was on sale...LOL
Pans of this style are very popular in the Nordic countries, and they really are great. They make the absolute best crepes!
Yum! We are going to have to try that.
How do you season it and how long do you have to do it?
