Coffee can cooker

[DThewanderer]

Have you ever improvised when cooking on a fire? I once used an upside down coffee can as a cooker. Just poked some holes in the base, and sat it over the coals. Worked great.

No but that's not a bad idea! I like the stand a lone grills you can get at walmart but I'm in the process of making my own tube steel grill with extend able legs .

Cut the top out of an empty pop can to melt snow and boil water when stranded away from camp because of a blizzard.

I've used a cut up Arizona iced tea can to boil water and to cook wild mushrooms. It was a little irksome to get on and off of the fire, but I eventually worked out a good system with a stick.

I have the metal grate from an old, non-functional toaster oven for grilling, although I haven't needed to use it yet.

I have a metal great from an old fan that broke that I use for grilling over our stone ring fire. Works great and didn't cost me anything. Grandpa- do we get to see pics when it is done?
