Survival cooking can involve something as simple as a campfire, a homemade and portable system, or its commercial equivalent. A fire source is needed when camping or during a disaster not just to heat food, but to purify water and provide heat to prevent hypothermia and frostbite as well.
Want to give survival cooking a try? Try these methods:
1. The Crisis Cooker allows users to make hot meals when living off the grid or during a disaster. The lightweight cooking system is designed to function with charcoal, wood or propane as fuel to grill, bake, boil or fry food – hence all the complimentary versatility reviews. Some folks have even cooked an entire Thanksgiving dinner with just 12 charcoal briquettes. It is not uncommon for a typical meal to be cooked with about six briquettes on the Crisis Cooker. Once the charcoal (or basically any other type of fuel uses) is lit, the cooking system is ready to heat your meal in about 10 minutes. A chicken dinner will go from the Crisis Cooker to you plate in just under an hour. The cooking system weighs about 25 pounds and is capable of making two meals per day for about three weeks from a 25 pound bag of charcoal.
