Prepare meals with only small amounts of sticks, twigs, scrap lumber, pine cones, and other biomass material. The main fuel… STICKS! No need for propane, liquid fuels, jells, charcoal, electricity, or large stacks of firewood; just sticks and small pieces of wood. This concept is not new to mankind. Through the ages people have used sticks to cook food. This stove introduces an improved level of e
fficiency and performance that has been lacking in traditional camp fires and pits. It takes very few sticks to cook using the Deadwood Stove. The first impression many people have is “this thing is too small”. Don’t be fooled. The Deadwood Stove is fully capable of pan-frying and grilling steaks, hamburgers, pork chops, and any other main course. It will heat 1 quart of vegetable oil to fry fish and chicken wings & legs. You will also be able to steam vegetables, pop popcorn, fry eggs; the list goes on and on. It produces temperatures above 1000 degrees at the cooking surface (grill). You can cook on the Deadwood Stove the same way you cook on a household kitchen stove top. The stove is designed for the use of a frying pan, but griddles, kettles, woks, and coffee pots also work perfectly. Cast iron cookware is ideal because of its durability and heat retaining characteristics
You can also cook directly on the grill without a pan using very small amounts of fuel. Just build a fire in the stove and let it burn down to coals like you would any grill or campfire. Then feed small amounts of sticks to keep the heat going. Remember to use only hardwoods (oak, hickory, pecan, mesquite, fruit woods) to get that smoky flavor.
