Baking Bread on the Cobb Grill

[@gadgetg003]

I am one of the people who ordered a Cobb Grill after seeing your video introducing it.I am very much looking forward to your future videos using it. You are a very intelligent and industrious lady and I really enjoy watching your videos and learning from them. Thank you!

[@RoseRedHomestead]

Thanks you and we are planning on doing a number of the Cobb videos. Jim

[@redoakley3829]

I’m one of those people too! Bought a grill the same day and can’t wait to see more videos.

[@Tattiepoo1]

Just ordered mine. Question. What kind of starter do you use to start the briquettes.

[@Lydia1914]

​@@Tattiepoo1 cotton balls and a little vaseline. She said the Vaseline is a petroleum product however by the time she puts the food on it has been completely burned away. You can see her talk about that at 16:20.

[@arktisticallycreative4932]

I applaud your honesty & bravery to NOT just edit your "glitch" out. We are all human & need to learn from & help each other. Thank you for sharing this with us.

[@bella-bee]

It’s gratifying to see how rapidly the temperature climbs

[@reenyny9502]

I guess Mr. Cobb better add a Bread Blankie to his product list! ❤

[@WisconsinAdventures]

and he better name it that too! Lol

I am not surprised that the COBB people were delighted with you. I am! People of value, value, people of value and you are top notch. Congrats and thank you for bringing us valuable information. I know that your relationship with COBB - communicating but not sponsored - will benefit all of us. I wonder if they would consider a give-away that you could award to a viewer. Thanks for sharing.

I'm adding that little verse to my collection. Currently I only have this one. "Real eyes, realize, real lies"

[@administrativeaccounting3953]

I am a guilty one that purchased one the day I watched this video. Last night I cooked on it for the first time and grilled chicken and veggies and while it was still hot, I threw on some biscuits to bake. It did very well. Today I am cooking steak. I cant wait to try baking bread in it! We are in Florida and it's going to make a great Hurricane supply for us to use when power goes out.

[@janelord3483]

I love the Cobb, I found one at a garage sale about 5 years ago. I didn't no what it was but thought it was some type of cooking device. I really like using this and take it with me in the trunk of the car and use it on the beach or park with twigs and drift wood. Fantastic, and it only cost me $20

[@RoseRedHomestead]

Oh wow! Fantastic find! All the newer attachments should also fit it if you want to expand.

[@Jen-CelticWarrior]

Score!

[@MaryWehmeier]

Wow! I want one for our RV. You scored!

[@Tattiepoo1]

Can you use twigs in it or only charcoal

[@justjoanish]

That was a question I had about, could twigs and small branches be used instead of charcoal.

[@urbangalfarmroots]

Loved this episode. Great use of the welding blanket, which I also use as an emergency fire blanket and keep it by my woodburning stove!

[@barbarageorge7971]

My grandfather had honey bees for years and we always got honey from them. I finished my last bottle about ten years ago, it was around forty years old at the time. Thanks for the get videos. I learn so much each time.

[@StephanieMissouri]

Wow! 40 years! What a gift from your grandfather.

[@icecreamladydriver1606]

I have been baking bread for over 50 years and never knew until now that I was supposed to check the bread temperature. PS You look awesome in those sunglasses.

[@thehadster7043]

This was fascinating! One thing I learned from my Dad is the usefulness of a bed of ashes. We always keep a bed of ashes in our fireplace of at least 2 inches. When I asked him why, he told me that they hold the heat and keep the embers of the fire hotter for longer. I've seen this myself when I stir up the ashes the next morning and there are red hot embers under a layer of ashes so all I need to do to get the fire going is put on some nicely dried wood. What if you kept some ashes aside for use with your Cob oven. When you're making bread, you could put a layer of ashes under the fire starters and once the brickets got hot, they would have that insulating layer under them. My next thought was the use of a dutch oven. You wouldn't be able to use a rectangular loaf pan, but a round one could fit inside a dutch oven. Get the dutch oven nice and hot, and it would level out the temperature for you. You could more easily add brickets to the oven... I love figuring out things like this. Thank you so much for doing all of these experiments and for showing and/or telling us of your failures. That's how we learn! Anyway, enjoy your lovely fresh bread and your experiments!

[@RoseRedHomestead]

When we use the Cobb, the time-lapse between use is not going to make a difference. If we use the Cobb once a week, the ashes will be cold and we will have to start all over again. I have found when the fire place is hot and there are embers, that may work. But if the fire place is cold and has not been used for several days, I have to sweep away the cold ashes ad start from scratch. Jim

[@inkmetal1]

Start with 10 briquets, when they ash over add 2 fresh briquets, preheat, then add bread. That way you don't have to open the lid to add coal.

[@RoseRedHomestead]

Yes, we are looking a alternatives like that. Jim

[@jamesvoigt7275]

I am just learning, so thanks for your protocol.

Well, I'm getting my Cobb delivered today. I'm very excited. Your excitement today is contiguous. Nice video

[@gloriaclark3317]

How do I get in touch with the people about the Cobb grill

[@cindybroadus3277]

Years ago I had to cook all our families meals on a charcoal grill. I got the idea to speed up the coals by holding my hair dryer on the coals. Maybe it would speed up the waiting process to achieve gray coals

[@crystald3655]

A battery operated air pump works for that too. So does a manual billow.

[@Geoffhoy]

Hello from South Africa! During Covid when we had horrific lock down regulations, I tried baking bread on the Cobb, with a lot less success than you 😊. I found that the bottom of the bread was burnt. So I escalated to a small Dutch oven in the Cobb but that too burnt and eventually I abandoned my attempts. I was using briquettes (heat beads) or cobblestones. I did not have the extender which might have made the difference. It’s not that I don’t have experience baking bread as I have baked for 25 years, but mostly not your regular loaf breads. I think I’ll give it another go now, thanks for the inspiration. BTW I am an early Cobb adopter back when the Cobb had a “unbreakable” plastic cover 😂 and it is wonderful to see what they have done with the original ideal and how adaptable it has been but especially to see informative and fun channels on KZbin like yours - I love it!! Go Granny (no insult intended I’m 71) !!!

[@jannellemerrett8781]

Hi Pam , great job . Try a heat diffuser plate on the fenced roasting rack as well as the grill plate you had on the bottom . This will allow you to use more heat beads to get the correct temperature needed and stop the bottom from burning . The diffuser plate will also hold heat allowing the temperature to be more consistant . You could also raise the bread pan off the diffuser by using 4 big stainless steal nuts to get it off the direct heat source allowing for all round air circulation similar to a conventional oven . The heat diffuser plates are available from Amazon . BTW, I was very happy to hear you read my comment out about the Cobb thank you . I will be looking forward to your next video . Cheers from Jannelle down under 😊

[@alicekramden8640]

There are several types of diffusers on Amazon. Would you be good enough to be more specific with the brand, etc. thank you.

[@jannellemerrett8781]

@@alicekramden8640 Hi any one that you can afford will work . I purchased mine from a kitchen store here in Australia . They are metal plates that help even out the heat preventing hot spots , you can also raise the bread tin off the diffuser by using some large stainless steel nuts .

[@Dulcy-Doll2736]

Pam, I love your channel, but take it easy on the dough! 😉You don't need to de-gas the dough by flattening it into a pancake. All you need to do is "gently" de-gas and roll the dough out on the counter without smashing and flattening it. You will get a much better result by treating the dough gently.

[@RoseRedHomestead]

Ok thanks!

[@carolyns99]

Agreed. For the first rise I form it into a ball, tucking it under and smoothing it into shape so that it has structure for the rise then I just put it back into its bowl and cover. Then I knock down the dough quickly, cut it in half, reshape into two big balls and put them in the tin side by side for the second rise. This gives you a high twin loaf that you can just pull in half with your hands. If you are used to that method, flattening it and rolling it out does seem a bit brutal. On the other hand, that still seems to work. I don't think I ever get a crumb that firm, it's usually fairly light and fluffy. I might have to experiment and see what I can do with a light knock down and then a roll out. Of course, I have to admit that I am a white bread girl and my dough is never that dense and a lot more springy, so that probably changes the handling somewhat. Our new Cobb arrives next week, so I shall be doing my own experimentation. I do need to get one of those thermometers though, and the welding blanket is a great idea! Thanks to Pam and Jim for all your hard work and for sharing your knowledge so generously with us all.

[@ctbrodie]

I agree. I've also found that it usually isn't necessary to firmly push into corners. If the yeast and kneading have done their work, as it rises, it will gently fill the corners. That being said, you probably make magnificent bread even with whacking it within an inch of its life. 😊

I am a beginner self reliance preparer and one of my biggest concerns is cooking as I live in a neighborhood and totally reliant on public utilities which makes me very uneasy.

Thanks for all you do for us.

[@jamesvoigt7275]

My favorite way of preparing bread is to steam it. All you need is a pot of water with a good lid and a rack inside. Also bake in a round pan or make buns, my most favorite. The Chinese do it, Africans, British, and early Americans. You can learn about it on KZbin.

[@nancyj.8203]

Hi Pam and Jim, I am in NH and we had a spring snowstorm, with high winds and heavy wet snow, half the state lost power, some are still out, telephone poles came down, as well as trees. Off grid! but here we have well water and lose our ability to bath and flush, we prepare by keeping a tote of water for bucket flushing, usually fill a couple of thermos with boiling water and have rechargeable lights. Sometimes our food goes outside in totes filled with snow, on the deck. Thanks to you, I have some lights and propane burner for cooking, if I must. I don't much care for candles. We get really cold, so keeping the autos full of gasoline is a source of heat and way to charge the phone, as well as bluetti ❤️🍞

LOL! You sent me down a rabbit hole with this one. Here is what I found. Kingsford charcoal has about 9700 BTUs per pound of charcoal--verified by an independent lab. There are about 20-25 briquettes per pound, so if there are 25, then each briquette has 388 BTUs! What I can't find is the relationship between BTUs and temperature, so I don't know what t388 BTUs equivalent temperature is, if there is one. A fun 10 minutes for me! Thanks.

Let us know how it turns out and what you cook on the Cobb. Jim

[@tagladyify]

Looks like a high quality product. A couple of thoughts: If you have to use specialty items, like the cobblestones, it’s not really going to be something useable in grid down or if the company doesn’t make the long term. For those who do not have the money to buy The Cobb Grill many of the very same things can be done on an old fashioned cheap charcoal grill. I have actually done just that. I had forgotten about it until just recently, but it isn’t hard at all.

[@lorenefleming226]

Suggestion for maintaining heat-just before you put food in oven add 1 or 2 unlit briquettes to edge of hot briquettes, not on top. By the time they are fully lit the others will be dying down some.

I love trying alternative ways of cooking bread. If my latest experiment doesn't work out, sometimes I can retrieve the loaf by putting in my kitchen oven to finish baking. This would be a last resort in order to make it edible. But if not edible, it would be good food for the chickens or birds.

Well done, glitch and all, you’re right, they’re educational. May I say I did notice the extension ring wasn’t seated properly at the back, although I think maybe you levelled it out when you added the blanket, but if not, might that have been the means of heat loss?

[@chrisduplessis1913]

Good day from South Africa. I loved watching this video and I've tried baking bread a few times myself. I must agree with the gentleman from Cobb that the Cobblestone will do a better job. In my experience they get a lot hotter and you have heat for much longer. It may even be possible to do two loafs with the same Cobblestone or bake your bread and a few pieces of chicken or so afterwards. I do not make fire in my Cobb to save it from burning through in the long run but make the charcoal separately in something similar to the chimney you used. It does however require more brickets especially for topping up halfway through baking which is not great as per your experience also. Thanks for the tip on the welding blanket. I've used old T-shits but it is a bit of a nuisance. I agree 100% with the person who suggested that Cobb should make us a Bread Blankie. I saw some time ago the Cobbers in the UK also have problems getting enough heat from their Cobbs when using it outside during winter. Finally I saw that placing baking paper in the pan could prevent the bread from burning or getting too dark at the bottom. Enjoy your Cobb and I'm looking forward to more videos from you.

I am not good at choosing gadgets like this and would like to buy the exact ones you are using. Please answer my need by replying with the names of the gadgets and/or putting them in your store, and letting me know they are there and how to access the Cobb unit you have and the two thermometers you used. I have the welding blanket already for my Coleman oven, and will use the excess as you did. I have made firestarters, too, by melting candles I get from our D.I. and dipping the cotton balls in wax so they will burn longer. I really appreciate all you do, your honesty and the care and concern for your viewers. I'll be awaiting the info, please, as I would like to get these things ordered ASAP. Thanks.

At about the 18:05 mark, as you are putting on the extender, it LOOKS like something got a bit skewed. It seems the front is lower, and the back is higher. Is it possible that the heat loss happened at that point? Just a thought. Can't wait to see how you go forward with the Cobb, and it's so cool that George is willing to help and guide you!

I noticed that too when I was editing the video--good catch! Thanks.

This product looks great. Could you line the inside of the lids with some kind of aluminum insulation for more of an even heat ?
