Excellent Mark! My wife can't wait for me to make it! Just to clarify, in video I think you said 2 eggs but your recipe says 4. I'm sure either way will be great!
All I can say "wow"! My mouth is watering my friend. Truly amazing what you can make with a little knowledge of how to bake without an oven. Cheers Mark.
That was some great camera work over those hot coals. Wow that was a lot of meat. It didn't seem like that much in the container. That was such a great idea. What a lovely scenery. lol on Getting fancy with a bandana.
So I tried this today ... a smaller version just to test. My omelet consisted of a single egg, 1-1.5 tbl ground beef prepared for tacos, a finely diced greeen onion and a slice of colby-jack cheese. And a low-carb tortilla. My "oven" was the Firebox Box Pot with the cooking stone. My stove was the Bushcraft-Essentials Bushbox Outdoor Pocket Stove. Fuel was one Esbit tablet, placed inside an aluminum cup from a tea candle, in order to reduce the surface area and extend the burn time. Rather than parchment paper, I used a "Giant" paper muffin cup that I first flattened. This test was conducted indoors without any wind. The omelet ingredients were assembled in a stainless steel bowl I picked up at the thrift store, 3.75 inches in diameter and with a total volume of 1.25 cups. It was placed in the Box Pot on a metal ring about .25 inches tall cut from a tomato-paste can to prevent burning on the bottom. This gave me about .25 inches of clearance between the bowl and the sides of the Box Pot to allow the heat to circulate. The Esbit tablet burned 17 minutes. During the burn, the exterior temperature of the sides of the Box Pot reached 400F degrees near the bottom and 200+F near the top. Ten minutes after the last flame went out, the side of the Box Post still registered temperatures approaching 200F, due to the large amount of heat absorbed by the cooking stone and its slow release. That stored heat was used to complete the cooking. Thirty minutes after the last flame, the omelet was 100F when it was removed. The omelet tasted great. It was still a bit soft and creamy, which I liked, but the tortilla did not crisp up. Given the smaller bowl, the tortilla may have added too much mass, especially since I was trying to pull it off with a single Esbit tablet. I made a second omelet with a few more ingredients and omitted the tortilla, cooking the mixture in a "Giant" paper muffin cup placed in the small stainless steel bowl. It was another winner and, as expected, more fully cooked. I also did not need to depend on the stored heat from the cooking stone to complete the cooking. This would be a great Keto or high-protein trail meal if it could be shown to work with dry ingredients, e.g. freeze-dried eggs, bacon bits, dehydrated veggies, hard cheese, etc. Thanks for the idea, Mark.
Your quiche looks great. I like to add a little gruyere to mine and a little more on top. With my camp dutch oven I put 20 briquets on top and 10 under. Most often I make a frittata or crustless quiche.
Good thing I had something to eat before watching this, Mark, because you’re killing me…….😬🤤 The tortilla definitely can be used for differing recipes that require a crust. As I was watching, I was thinking about the possibility of using a combination Trangia with a simmer ring and a few coals if you only have a small wood stove. ✌️🇺🇸🇨🇦✌️
@@MarkYoungBushcraft Now I’m hooked lol… will be watching your content… I really found the one on the Kelly Kettle so informative… you explained everything in great detail… take care.

Yum Yum Great Demo On This Shared Thanks Mark ! ATB T God Bless
Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for commenting Terry
Don’t know why you don’t get more views. Looks amazing.
I appreciate that. I don't do anything to promote my channel like Instagram. For me, thi is a hobby, not a job. Thanks for commenting
Wow, Mark, you out did yourself with this one! I will definitely be making quiche in the woods. Thanks.❤
Hope you enjoy. Thanks for commenting
Looks really good. That quiche, or omelet turned out really well. It was like a miniature Dutch oven. Cheers, Mark! 👍🏻👍🏻✌️🇨🇦
It was great meal for sure. Thanks for commenting
Wow...I started drooling! That looks soooo good! I'm gonna try this for sure!! Thx for sharing Mark!
Hope you enjoy. Thanks for commenting
The excitement was palpable 😀
The wrap as a base is a great idea. Love a quiche with bacon I will have to give this a try.
Worth while making this for sure. Thanks for commenting
Very nice, going camping next week. I might give this a go for one meal.
Hope you enjoy. Thanks for commenting
That did look quite tasty. If a recipe has eggs bacon and cheese . . . it just about has to be good.
For sure. Bacon and eggs plus cheese. Can't go wrong. Thanks for commenting Lonnie
Lonnie, I miss your knowledge, and wisdom. Hope you are doing well.
@@radagast6682 We are indeed doing well. Hope the same for you and your loved ones
Excellent Mark! My wife can't wait for me to make it! Just to clarify, in video I think you said 2 eggs but your recipe says 4. I'm sure either way will be great!
Right on. I made a half size of the recipe in the description. Thanks for commenting
No worries on too much protein and carb as we'll work all that off and then some with tasks and walking about the woods. Great recipe!
Oh yes, I am sure I burnt more calories getting there and making this than the meal had in it. Thanks for commenting
That’s a winner for sure. Thanks Mark
I will be doing this again. Thanks for commenting
Perhaps a quiche with foraged ingredients ... Bushcraft Keto.
That would be cool. Got me thinking now. Thanks for commenting
@@MarkYoungBushcraft Would that work with freeze-dried eggs? If so, that quiche would be a keeper for multi-day hikes.
@@JonJaeden I haven't tried that but I am inspired by your question to try it. If it works out, I will make a video on it.
That looks delicious, Mark
So good. Thanks for commenting
Oh my goodness Mark that looked amazing. Great Job!
It was Steve, it was. Thanks for commenting

Topped with some salsa, hot sauce or guacamole would be perfect. Thanks Mark.
Yes, perfect toppings. Thanks for commenting

Sounds like you had fun trying it out. I may try it with dehydrated ingredients as well. Thanks for commenting
Yum!!!
Thanks for commenting
I like your idea of using the low carb tortlla! I cicle low carb/ keto and carnivore, so I will try your recipe, thanks
Hope you enjoy. Thanks for commenting
Going to try this one. Thank you.
Let me know what you think. Thanks for commenting

Interesting idea. Only challenge I can see would be getting the timing right. Thanks for commenting
I've found low-carb tortillas at Sam's Club, here in the States. Don't know if they operate in Canada...big ones, various flavors...
Unfortunately, no Sams Club in Nova Scotia. Thanks for commenting
Loved this video… looks so good.
What brand of wood stove are you using ? Am looking to but one that size…
Glad you enjoyed the video. I am using the Bushcraft Essentials Bushbox XL. I have a review if interested. Thanks for commenting

Now to show my ignorance. What is bad with the eggshell . Just asking for a friend.
Leave no trace, shouldn’t leave anything behind including egg shell.
