Unless you cant help it, always use glass, especially when using a microwave.If you cook/ warm food in plastic containers, from the heat, particles from the plastick fly and stick on your food.With years it starts to add up in the body. If cooking in a frying pan, make sure its stainless steel and not aluminium due to the same reason as plastics.

In an area where it gets up to 103 to 111 degrees during the hottest part of the day, this oven should cook a hot dog in no time flat. I have built Solar Ovens as a kid and in Southern Arizona, they DO work and surprisingly well. The first one I built was for a Science Fair project. It was built from an old Barbecue Grill lined with aluminum foil. Got an A on the project.

Finally, a new use for the empty cans from these hideous, fake, and unhealthy chips. A few of these cans reside on my shelves to store the used cotton rounds that Beautiful Bride and Beautiful Daughter gift me after a manicure. They get soaked in recycled candle wax and become an easy fire extender. I have wanted to motivate the youngest members of our family to try solar cooking. With rainy / typhoon season upon us, this is certainly not the best time of the year for solar ovens here in the Philippines. Your project will be perfect.

Just an idea for finding the center of the metal end, take the lid and put it on that end, then poke your hole through. Then remove the lid and put it where it belongs. While this looks interesting, I don't see me trying it for a couple of reasons. I don't eat Pringles and it's rare for me to buy soda. So, I don't have the supplies for making it. Many years ago, I went on vacation with my grandmother and her second husband. One night, they cooked hotdogs in the room in what was called a hotdogger. I got so sick. I had a hard time eating hot dogs unless I cooked it or it for was at a BBQ. Finally got to where I can eat them if I'm out and need a quick meal. But I think I'd have to trouble with this.

Great concept, but, I'm not a fan of using heated plastic, either. I was thinking I could easily poke a hole in the jar lid, and with wire, make a little stand for the other end of the skewer to rest and roll on. Put reflective foil on the outside like from the pringles can. Easy peazy... can be washed and reused, too. I'd bet the jar with a closed lid heats a lot faster, as well. I usually eat 2 hot dogs, so I'm thinking I want a jar big enough for a double skewer! I love hot dogs... and thinking what else it could be used for. 🤔

Maybe calling it a “cooker” is problematic. It warmed a pre-cooked food. It wouldn’t collect enough solar energy to cook something raw. As well, a hotdog is only safe to eat for 2 hours when kept at room temperature. When above 90 degrees F and the internal hotdog temperature is below 140 degrees F, this time is reduced to 1 hour. This is probably the range this device will keep the hotdog, which give bacteria the best growing conditions. If you can get the internal temperature of the hotdog up to 165 degrees F, only then do the most common harmful bacteria start to die off. Nothing wrong with sticking a dog in this contraption straight from the fridge or icy cooler to warm it up for a few minutes to make it more palatable, but don’t leave it in there for a long time thinking it just needs a few more minuets to be “cooked.” You might regret it in the coming days…

A little follow-up on this project. We are patiently waiting for the "out-laws" to empty a few chip cans and bring them when they come to visit. We took a side path one morning when the sky cleared to try a different version. We have a stack of aluminum loaf pans with clear plastic lids. One long bamboo skewer. a dog from the local Sari Sari store and our young troops were good to go. The sealed-up loaf pan was tilted toward the sun and we allowed some extra time due to clouds appearing and shading the project a few times. I am happy to report that a warm dog was the end product! I am guessing our "cheat" does not work as well as the solar cooker that you crafted and we will soon find that out but at least we did a positive result.

Great ideas. It makes me wonder how it would work if you left the can intact but painted the outside of it a flat black. It might keep some of the heat in and let it cook faster. It seems with your method there are loose spots where the heat gets out.

That’s such a great idea! I wonder how that might be configured to heat a bit of water for coffee or tea…

As metal coat hangers get harder to find, any box hardware store has brass, stainless, etc brazing/welding rods in the welding section 😉

Standard steel hangers are not a problem as long as they have the paint removed!!! Hardly any different than cooking in cast iron!!!
