Thanks Ernie, I really liked the look of the grill plate. Just keep doing what you do, i love the way you do your videos. ATB. J.M. from England.

[@DerOpa.]

I have it, and use it with my Optimus 8R. yeah, that´s not light weight but the big steak, i´m having with me, isn´t either. You´re out on an adventure, it was a great day, the sun is going down, you get out your stove, the plate and a steak , formaly meant to feed a lion. You give this steak a really big kiss of this plate, little salt and a peace of butter. A sip of your beer, the steak, the sinking sun,...... Ooouuu, that´s great.

[@awatt]

Man after my own heart.

[@mbarr1029]

Alot of the seasoning on the pan is the user. If you leave the protein on long enough it will release. Thus, you feel the pan works. And if it does not release, then you tried to turn your food/protein to early. It will stick. Classic move i have made= lay the steak down and decide I want it over here, Well it will stick in the first few minutes.

Grilling filets on a fishing trip. Or fishing as a supplement on a week long hike perhaps.

[@asmith7876]

Even in hot weather you can bring steak. Freeze it and it will be fine as it thaws slowly in your pack. Eat it the first night or for breakfast the next day. That grill is a nice glamping accessory.

[@terrym1065]

The Japanese tend to eat their food as they cook it, not wait until all the food is cooked. I have the Goababu Carry-bo alcohol stove/windshield combo...excellent piece of gear. This grill plate would come in handy for sure. Thanks.

[@philipnelson4692]

Now he's saying it's cast iron. Ernie I've been a loyal fan for years and trust your opion to buy my stoves. You did say aluminum on your video. Watched it twice, so Will be ordering soon THANKS, YOUR FRIEND. ...... PHILIP

[@richardzak2140]

Hello Ernie. What a nice looking cooktop. Ingenious underside. They were really thinking this one out. Great find. Great video. I prefer when you actually cook something as opposed to just boiling water.

[@ItsMePaulyC]

I'd actually get this! Thanks for the video, Earnie!

[@BrosephRussell]

These cast grills are awesome I been wanting one forever they are a little pricy, but it is awesome, so I'll probably end up getting one . Great video review of the grill plate

[@uncle_trapper]

stealth campers will love this

[@sonofagun9856]

looks like a really good grill plate, really well made, not too heavy and works with a few stove types and i don't think it's too pricey either so yeah this is a good'en

[@jamesharvey44]

Great idea, just purchased the rounded edged one and the DZRVZD mestin/lunchbox cook set kit that the grill nests with, should work well on the Nano or the Esbit.

[@jerseydevil7895]

Fire Box stoves has new cast iron, rectangular ( 6"x8") skillets that are similar, but much deeper, higher grill bars and comes with removable pan lifter for similar price. Also have a companion deep pan, that can be used as a casserole or dutch oven.

[@carmenmartinez2882]

Love everything Firebox puts out, such good quality unfortunately I have osteoarthritis and I can’t lift cast iron but Temu has something very similar to this grill, is very light weight nonstick with Maifan (like granite ware) minus the bottom grooves for the different stoves and is only $12, I got it plus the separate griddle =$24, about the same size as this, I have cooked plenty on both including eggs on the griddle and nothing sticks. I’m happy with them.

[@bugoutxj2001]

I bet that will fit on the Firebox Nano pretty good!

[@-S_P-]

Lovely first impression. I eat alot of meat but I prefer my stanley frying pan, does the same thing except that it's not coated and I need to add some fat to cook on. It is an intresting option for sure. Some people will prefer it over a pan. Curious to see how it holds up, that's the other thing about stanley, the stainless steel is heavy but though. Really looking forward to find out how it performed. Cheers 💖💖💖

[@mulreid]

Great video. I think I might just pick one of these up!

[@flxseatosky1984]

I bought the fire maple style, and I think that design is better.

[@nickprague1481]

Looks like a nice product. The slots on the bottom are well thought out.

[@jeffreyking3807]

I like it. I own the flat titanium with the slotted bottom always have to use foil if I'm over a stove. This solved that. Nothing cheap these days. I think 42 bucks is in line with the times. Thanks from a loyal sub.

[@ewengillies9826]

You get what you pay for it. Quality will always win. Thanks Ernie. Bushyboy Oz.

[@SpaceExplorer31]

Nice piece of gear!!!

[@Toomuchgearguy]

I have the Fire Maple Sunflower version and this one. The bottom of the fire maple isn’t slotted like this one. It’s made specifically for the Sunflower camp stove / heater. This one is way more adaptable for different stoves. I believe Winnerwell makes one for their new oil lantern stove as well. So far I’ve cooked spam on a isobutane stove and steak on the oil lantern. It has done well on both.

[@terrywhite9017]

That looks like a good piece. 👍 Thank you for your videos.

[@gulag_inmate69]

Listing says fluorine based coating so its not really a seasoning just a chemical coating similar to non stick pans.

[@Gilagain54]

Ernie, great vids. Will this work with the Firebox stoves? Thank you.

[@tonylastname6468]

The Firebox pans are pretty light. Multi use. Nonstick. And the host has your patch on his cook kit bag.

[@jplamb77]

Excellent review Ernie,,,, I’ve picked up several of this type of plate from Amazon Japan 🇯🇵,,,, Each one is unique and worth having. But Ernie,,,, I surely thought by now You would have had a Review on Steve’s (Firebox 🔥) new cast iron cookware. I did buy a complete set,,, but when iam outdoors cooking for myself,,, I only bring the shallow pan,,, either side works,,👍👍👍. Will You be doing a review on the New Firebox Cast Iron Cookware,,??? Joshua

[@michaelhernandez410]

Will it fit a Svea 123R, or MSR pocket rocket?

[@skylerphoenix8880]

I’d like to see this used with a steak on an Esbit.

[@marcomcdowell8861]

Japan has a lot of gadgets for camping. Everytime I go to the Homec, I seem to leave with some new gear along with the screws I need.I'm going to guess they use this for yakiniku, fish or a shabu shabu. I rarely see any locals slap a whole steak on a grill.

[@AtomicBleach]

I assume with it not being anodized aluminum you would want to keep this away from a wood fire, or if you do use it, you really want to make sure the fire is died down to coals

[@danieljones2183]

I have a one shot "classic" espresso pot I tried to use on an alcohol stove but it was too hot and boiled too fast. I found a cookie size cast iron skillet that I use between the flame and the pot, which seems to work better. This plates might be a lighter weight alternative.

[@SMafam5]

Unrelated to this video but why are all heat exchanger cook pots not in stainless steel? I am not a fan of aluminum. I would be ok with added weight.

[@skylerphoenix8880]

Hi Earnie - Why would you use this instead of your pan like on the Trangia?

[@Colorado_Kkid]

Thanks for the review ... I'm going to have to give it a try ...

[@ericrodriguez9295]

Nice. Will it fit on the firebox nano

[@SonyaBayham]

Looks really good. Will it clean easily?

[@gilbd]

Glitch in the Matrix at 5:22 ...:)

[@theoriginalrabbithole]

If you get a chance, maybe take a look at the Snow Peak - Pack & Carry(in your vehicle.) portable fire pits? They come in 4 sizes with the Large being the best seller and they're VERY popular with camping enthusiast throughout the world.

[@stevebonavitarealtor]

Firemaple Sunflower Grill is similar and half the price. Take a look when you have a chance.

[@Toomuchgearguy]

I have this one. The bottom of it isn’t slotted like this one. It’s made specifically for the Sunflower camp stove / heater. I also have this one and prefer the slots making it more versatile.

[@neist]

HA! I've had this on my Amazon watchlist for years. Appreciate the video. It just seems so expensive for what it is. 😂

[@carmenmartinez2882]

Temu has similar one for $12, also a separate griddle.

[@markthilenius5533]

Will the x pattern fit the firebox nano

[@robertosantinni9656]

Could you use Lodge cast iron seasoning spray to help with the nonstick?

[@MichaelR58]

Good review, thanks for sharing YAH bless !

[@user-rn2tp6do3v]

Can you check to see if it fits the Firebox G2?

[@tracker5849]

I'm going to have to hire a team of Marines or a pair of oxen...I have the Saturn stove and 2 cast iron pans..plus the rest of the "stuff" does it fit firebox nano or regular?

[@tracker5849]

Grilled salmon would be good!!

[@MeMe-cd1wy]

Would love to have this griddle if it did not have that coating. It becomes toxic if over heated and gives off toxic fumes. That griddle looks fantastic otherwise. I would prefer to have coated it myself. You can cure aluminum just like you cure cast iron.

[@stuartstuart866]

Limited use, can’t fry an egg for instance.

[@Thegypsy8244]

Is that coating toxic like teflon and other non stick coatings?

[@gulag_inmate69]

The webpage says fluorine based coating so I would look into it

[@gulag_inmate69]

Ya so it's a Teflon pan they say fluorine based I'm sure because Teflon is a brand name

[@AaronVets]

@@gulag_inmate69I just watched the film, Dark Waters last night. Based on true events surrounding DuPont and Teflon. Highly recommend watching it!

[@philipnelson4692]

Aluminum?

[@awatt]

Cast iron

[@AaronVets]

@@awattDid you even watch the video? lol

[@philipnelson4692]

He said it was aluminum!

[@awatt]

@@philipnelson4692 Shush. Don't tell him.

[@paradyne1T101]

It will definitely work with a Firebox Nano

[@awatt]

Typical Japanese design. Simple esthetic, functional and well made. Well worth the money but i don't have a need for it.

[@rsa420]

utter bollocks

[@rsa420]

that's your priority when back packing?

[@jasonmonks3136]

No need to be rude, either it's something you're interested in, or it's not. Ernie uses his own time to find things that may be of interest to some people. Not everyone appreciates that it's his own time spent doing this.

[@awatt]

​@@rsa420 Show me on this puppet where the grill touched you. 😅
