I love those muffin mixes, so guess I just found a use for my second vintage Mirro Backpacker kit. Not that different, but considerably bigger since I'm a fatboy 😂 you just earned a new subscriber

Awesome!

Yes I just watched your video on making a one person oven and that a good idea but sure I have made one out of a two person mess kit making small pizza and small loaves of bread and small cakes and pies

This is exactly the same as my first mess tin cookset that I bought 47 years ago! Good to see that the design has stood the test of time. Great ideas to improve the versatility of the set, and your results looked absolutely delicious...

thats so cool! what a cool way to use a mess kit! thanks for the vid :)

nice idea i baught a coleman mess kit at my local wall mart last week. look like yours ,,,will try this

Thank you 😊

to reduce the risk of burning, place some water in the bottom of the big pot. This will aid in making the batter temp more even. You could also toss in a handful of gravel. Or even dirt (fire the dirt first to sterilize it) Just make sure you release the steam. Once steam is done leaking out, you know it will start baking and can adjust things accordingly.

A large mouth canning ring to raise it off the bottom and Parchment to line your pan is all you need to bake. It works great.

Quite clever, I have seen people get some height from the fire by a canning ring. Good use of things you probably have around the house.

If you dont care what they *look* like you can put the batter in a cooking bag and put it in (or above) boiling water.

“Idea” Add some tabs with holes in them so when turning over to dump pan that will hang down, but at same time if you want to attach bail for use of hanging pot over fire to warm soup or make a small stew you can. Thanks for sharing your video with us.

What kind of camp stove is that! It looks like a huge can.

Awesome

Use a 5 inch wide circle of carbon felt under you baking pan, will not scorch bottom and evens out heat better :)

I got the Jacob bromwell potato oven. Haven't gotten to try it out yet but, hopefully soon we will have an oven on trail.

a wood gas stove is a batch stove and it should be top lit not bottom lit. The idea is to have the load flames engulf the top of the load generating a low oxygen zone below where the wood gas is generated by the heat, the gas is drawn down to the bottom of the can and mixed with fresh air then pumped up to the secondary inlet holes and it is burned above the load flame below.

Reallybigmonkey1 lets it be 30 minutes to get it done. Just sayin.

Nice thinking!, Keep the handle on the frying pan and ditch the potholders, I think if you bent the tabs below the holes to a 180° you might be able to still use the pot bail.

Now I know what to do with that old Girl Scout mess kit! Brilliant trick

I find the Esbit cookset has too small a surface area on the bottom to transfer heat effectively. I use bigger diameter pot.

It might be helpful to have more space underneath the pan of food you're baking such as a mason jar lid or a small tuna can so that the pan is higher within the area of baking air. Also adding coals or wood sections of fire on the top of the pan will add heat on the top and shorten the baking time needed.

The timing on the package was for muffins, so it would be longer if you make a cake.☺

Sorry, but using your link to Amazon, says that the lowest priced one is $43. Couldn't we just order it from Walmart for less ?

Great idea! I love blueberry muffins too try two foil pie pan one for the mix and one for the top, no dishes LOL

I just picked up one of these, used. This video is a lifesaver. Thank you.

wow...good job.

I took the pot and set it on the stove as a spacer. Then put dough in mess kit. Put both halves together like you pack it up with the handle fastened with the bolt. No mods needed. The mess kit pans are an inch and a half off the flame. Baked in about 15 minutes when flipped half way through baking with pliers. Used Crisco on pans.

where can i buy this ?

Man I use to catch tons of fish out of those reclaimed lakes...Live near Okeechobee now still some great bass fishing but I still miss those little lakes.

I just watched another video with a mess kit similar to this one, and the woman made a "rack" by bending the edges of a grill topper she bought at the dollar store and cut into circles and it sits in her mess kit and round cake pans she has in her bag. She cooked kid-sized personal pizzas on them (she put 2 cake pans together and put the pizza on top of her homemade "rack" inside them and then baked the pizzas that way) and it worked!

Exelent.👍

That looks tasty

Just curious do you still have your D10T and did you ever stand up on it?

I have one of these hammocks and love it. I have 7 hammocks, including a Hennessy and this one is my favourite, go to, hammock. The newer models uses a thinner material. This model uses a stouter material. I installed a ridgeline in mine and it is even more comfortable. It really is massive inside. The only complaint is there is no storage inside at all. Have a look at my video on the ridgeline install. kzbin.info/www/bejne/aHWzpWCqm5emibs

I been looking at buying this from Walmart. Would be a perfect setup for my bugout bag or to keep in the jeep! I like my Amok Draumr 3.0 and Warbonnet Blackbird XLC but for the price it's hard to beat the Equip price tag. Great video bro.

Thank you for the video.

dude is funny. id fish with him

great tip. wow. what a difference! i just tested out my new design so your arse doesnt get soaked. maybe ill post a vid. basically cut out the bottom of a milk crate to fit under the seat, then cut to fit the lid of a big plastic storage tub. screw posts (allow some play in the scuppers for water flow) thru the lid that fall in to the scupper holes to hold it in place. POW!

liked this idea I'm looking for the pan set in the UK 😊

Rotate for even cooking.

Hey were you in mulenberg or Ohio county?

Hey, that was pretty awesome! Do you have a video to show how you make your cool little tin can brazier?

Awesome! Thanks for the vid!

I doubted it would ever work..Wow! Was i ever wrong! Can't wait to try it! Good job! Thank You

I would drill about four one-eighth inch holes around the sides of the lid to let the excess steam escape, which I think is your problem. That should reduce the cooking time.

I haven't read all the comments, so maybe someone already suggested this, but here's something to try. In a regular stove, the oven is hottest towards the top. So to brown the bottom of a pie, for instance, you'd put the pan on the lowest rack first. Folks do that to get a crisp bottom crust on pumpkin pies. So start your baking with the cover on the pan like in this video. You'll need to experiment with how long it takes to cook the muffin all through, but not dry it out by leaving it in too long. Then, after you know it is cooked through, so it will not fall when you handle the pan, remove the cover from the muffin pan, and put the pan back in for a few minutes. The lack of a cover may allow the hotter heat to brown the top of your muffin. :)

fantastic!!! I've been looking at different oven possibilities and am happy to see this one with a very low cost and ease to create. thank you much.

... bend the tabs in.

Where do you live at me and my fiance lives in Nelson Creek love to fish or camp with y'all
