Off-grid Cooking Methods
Eight ways to cook off the grid without power!

How to cook off-grid without power.
When the power's down and you need to cook off grid it's good to
have a variety of methods. Off-grid cooking equipment is a
necessary survival item if you're a prepper!

Preppers always have a contingency plan for cooking with no
power including using a fire pit, solar oven, rocket stove,
kerosene, propane or butane gas stove. Below are the off-grid
cooking methods to cook your emergency foods when the power's
down...

Eight Off-grid Cooking Methods
When the power goes down, are you ready? Discover cooking with
no power using a biomass, dutch oven, solar oven, rocket stove,
propane and gas stoves. Be prepared to cook off grid!

Method #1: Wood biomass ovens and rocket stoves.
One of the basic ways to cook off grid is with wood and biomass.
With a few twigs you can fuel your cellphone, heat your meal,
purify water or warm up! With a rocket stove, you'll use wood,
biomass and charcoal with no gas or propane necessary. The
Volcano 3 Collapsible Grill stove, pictured right, has tri-fuel
capability which sets it apart from all other outdoor cooking
options because you can cook whatever you want, whenever you
want. Switch between propane, charcoal, or wood in just seconds!

Here are some of our favorte biomass ovens and stoves:

Fire pit with a dutch oven. At the most basic level of off-
grid cooking preppers can dig a shallow trench for a fire to
shelter the flames from wind. This is the pioneer method
with which to cook foods. Fuel sources in a fire pit can be
charcoal, wood or even dung!

Dutch Oven: Essential for this method of off-grid
cooking is a dutch oven (a cast iron pot with a lid
pictured left) to place on the fire pit. Use a dutch oven
to cook pie, bread, cobblers, casseroles, baked beans,
stew, cakes and more. Learn more about cast iron
cookware by Lodge.

Reflector Oven: With a campfire reflector oven, you can
bake using an open fire. Pictured in green right,
pioneers baked breads in a reflector oven. Scouts also
appreciate this classic cooking method. It bakes by
capturing radiant heat from an open fire and then
reflects the heat towards your food.

BioLite Wood Burning Camp stoves. Turn fire into electricity
with the Biolite! The BioLite wood burning camp stov e
powers most USB-chargeable devices including smartphones.
In about 20 minutes of charging with a strong fire they will
give you about 60 minutes talk time on most smartphones.
During a full burn, the CampStove can boil 1 liter of water in
as little as 4.5 minutes. Best of all, the CampStove weighs
about 2 pounds and is about the same size as a 2-liter
Nalgene water bottle An internal starter battery helps kick-
start the wood fire before the stove begins generating its
own power

BioLite's patented core technology captures waste heat from

the fire through a heat probe attached to the orange

powerpack. Heat converts into electricity by thermoelectric

generator. This powers a fan and sends electricity to a USB

charging port and stores exce

s power in the internal

battery. The interal fan injects air back into the burn

chamber to dramatically improve combusion and create a

cleaner more efficient burn.

EcoZoom Versa Rocket Stove. Eco Zoom Versa rocket stove,
pictured slightly lower right, offers the flexibility to cook with
wood, charcoal, or solid biomass fuel in a rugged and durable
design. A super-high efficiency portable cook stove, it has a
fully insulated vertical combustion chamber forces gases to
mix with flames when in use, decreasing harmful emissions
while boasting tremendous fuel efficiency. This means you
can use less fuel to increase cooking times and you won’t
get smoke in your face! The Versa doesn’t require a lot of
wood and charcoal to cook an entire meal, which makes it a
very eco-friendly outdoor cooking option. The EcoZoom Versa
is highly rated, extremely durable, long-lasting and energy
efficient. The Versa uses wood, charcoal or solid biomass as
fuel. Great for outdoor camping, hiking and even emergency
preparedness.

Grover Heavy Duty Rocket Stove. The ultimate prepper
rocket stove is the Grover heavy duty rocket stove. It solves
the problem of cooking when your propane runs out, and you
don't have large quantities of wood to devote to cooking. Of
course you need some alternate source of combustible
material. Wood works great but in conventional wood burning
stoves you will waste a great deal of wood in heat energy
that didn't go towards cooking the food. This Heavy Duty
Grover Rocket Stove eliminated that problem entirely by
allowing you to use small twigs, leaves, and pretty much any
dry plant matter will do, such as weeds, dry sage brush, etc.

Kelly Kettle. If you are camping and want a convenient quick
way to heat up your water for hydrating food, a cup of coffee
or for personal use, the large Kelly Kettle (Base Camp) is an
ideal solution. It will deliver about 7 cups of ho water in just
a few minutes. Backpackers and hikers love the Kelly Kettle
for its light weight and natural fuel burning ability. Never
worry about carrying heavy fuel in your backpack again. An
essential element of any emergency preparedness plan is
being able to obtain pure water, which the Kelly Kettle does
brilliantly and effectively! Without access to other types of
fuel such as gas or propane, it may be difficult to get pure
water. Since the Kelly Kettle uses only natural fuels, in a
disaster you most likely will still have access to ample
natural fuel in order to boil and purify water for drinking,
cooking and personal hygiene.

Solo Stove. The Solo S tove uses twigs, leaves, pinecones and
wood as fuel, which eliminates the need to carry heavy,
polluting and expensive canister fuels. Plus it boils water in
as little as two minutes. Designed with a double wall, the
Solo Stove has unique airflow properties which makes it
extremely efficient. The air intake holes on the bottom of the
stove channel air to the bottom of the fire while at the same
time, channels warm air up between the walls of the stove.
This burst of preheated oxygen feeding back into the firebox
through the smaller holes at the top of the stove causes a
secondary combustion. This allows the fire to burn more
complete which is why there is very little smoke during full
burn. A more efficient burn also means you'll use much less
wood compared to an open camp fire. The solo stove is the
#1 wood-burning camping stove recommended by Backpacker
Magazine and serious survivalists including Discovery
Channel's Matt Graham.

Volcano Collapsible Cook Stove. An unbelievably cool cook
stove, the Volcano Collapsible Cook Stove takes either
propane, charcoal, or wood! How's that for versatility?
Designed in the USA, it's the tri-fuel capability which sets it
apart from all other outdoor cooking options. This portable
cook stove collapses to 5” and includes a storage bag. This
is a highly popular cookstove with preppers. The Volcano
Collapsible Cook Stove is hands down the most popular
camping stove of HappyPreppers.com readers judging by
sales.

VitalGrill Survival Stove. The VitalGrill Survival Stove picture
below is eco-friendly. Use any Solid Biological Material
Available as fuel: wood, paper, cardboard, twigs, straw,
natural fibers, animal dung, any combustible waste, and also
charcoal. Best of all, the VitaGrill Survival stove is designed
to deliver life-saving heat in extreme situations.

Method #2: Folding Stove / Hobo stove.
With a folding stove or hobo stove you have mixed fuel options
including charcoal, biomass, sterno, paraffin wax, Esbit fuel).
Some stoves offer a variety of fuel options. Below are stoves that
accept charcoal, a sterno or biomass as fuel sources:

Bushbox Outdoor Pocket stove. Pictured immediate right
the B ushbox Outdoor Pocket Stove, fits into any pocket multi-
fuel, can be used with wood, organic matter, Trangia and
fuel tablets. Use renewable resources like twigs, leaves, pine
cones, wood shavings, feathers, cotton pads, or other
organic matter; Wood pellets, charcoal, and dried animal
dung are also great, fast burning options. The Bushbox works
with almost any fuel including alcohol burners, gel cans,
standard Trangia burners, as well as Esbit and hexamine
tablets (use the special base plate position or turn the
Bushbox upside down)

Esbit folding stove. The Esbit folding stove with fuel tabs
pictured right is an awesome beginner stove. Each Esbit fuel
tab can burn about 12 minutes each, which is more than
enough to handle your cooking needs, like boiling water. The
beauty of this system is that it's a compact stove made of
durable galvanized steel that fits in your pocket. The stove
set, pictured right with the included fuel tabs is around
$10.99 and with available free shipping! Quick to Boil, the
Esbit 14 g solid fuel tablets are able to boil 500 ml of water
in about 8 minutes – the perfect amount for a freeze-dried
meal.

Tin can charcoal stove. You can configure a classic charcoal
tin can stove from a #10 can in your preps. Also, called a
hobo stove or a buddy burner, you'll need two sturdy wire
screens, a roll-type can opener, a punch type can opener and
wire for a handle, in addition to a #10 can. When you're
done, you'll need just 3 or 4 charcoal briquettes to operate.
Here's how to make a tin can charcoal stove.

Remove the top and bottom of the can.
Create circulation air holes with the punch type can
opener.
Make two holes on the top at either end, then tie a wire
handle.
Push one of the sturdy wire screens down the can to
make a grate to keep charcoal near the top for cooking
Place the other at the top to support pots.

Many preppers

have modified the

tin can stove

method:

Here's a t in can b uddy burner with paraffin wax
insertion. The paraffin wax insertion is a tuna can with
cardboard roll and melted wax. The same design also
works with a sterno insertion.

Here is a rocket tin can stove with biomass fuel.

Buddy Burner (noun). Also called a "Vagabond Burner," a
buddy burner is a home made fuel source for cooking. A
popular buddy burner is made with Paraffin wax that's melted
and poured into a tuna can that's filled with rolled cardboard.
The device is then placed underneath a ventilated coffee
can, which serves as a stove to the buddy burner.

Learn how to make a buddy burner and a stove from tin
cans!

Method # 3 Sterno (alcohol) Stoves.
Sterno is a great beginning camper tool. It is best at heating
things up, or boiling water to make soup, and hot drinks like tea
and coffee. Sterno is a brand name. It has low heating power, so
you'll need more Sterno to cook a meal than with other times of
fuel. Even so, Sterno is a great way to get started in prepping.
Sterno is safer than liquid fuels and you'll find they are easy to
store and inexpensive,and fun! Sterno brand cooking fuel is non-
toxic, biodegradable and water soluble.

Can you use a sterno in an apartment in the event of an
emergency power outage? Yes! Sterno is a similar fuel used in
chafing dishes to keep casseroles warm in buffets and keeps the
fondue pot filled with melty cheese. Sterno Smores! Pictured left,
Left you'll see how you can roast marshmallows, in the best
Smores party idea ever!

Sterno Cooking Kit. Sterno brand cooking fuel is non-toxic,
biodegradable and water soluble. The Sterno Kit is a good
entry level option for cooking outdoors when the power is
out or for taking your first outdoor camping adventure.

Coghlan's Folding Stove (sterno, paraffin wax). Coghlan's
Folding Stove, pictured right, is convenient and easy to use.
It burns Coghlan's Camp Heat or any other type of canned
fuel, such as a home-made paraffin wax fuel made from a
tuna can. Try also fuel tablets! It folds nicely and is an ideal
emergency cooking option.

Method # 4: Alcohol Stove (liquid).
With an alcohol stove, unlike the petroleum fuel options, you can
easily put out a fire with water! Alcohol stoves also have the
benefit of being lightweight. Unfortunately, fuels aren't as easy
to find as other fuels.

The Esbit Alcohol Stove & Trekking Cookset. Pictured
immediate right, the Esbit Alcohol Stove and Trekking
Cookset, pictured right is made of extremely light, hard-
anodized aluminum. While aluminum has its dangers, the
lightweight and compact nature of this set makes it hard to
pass. It will be a great addition to a bugout bag. You can't
beat the deal. The set of cookware and stove is just $40!

Method #5: Charcoal Stove or Box Oven.
Cooking with charcoal briquettes is the classic backyard or park
cooking option. Another cooking method for charcoal is with box
oven. A box oven combined with charcoal can help you bake
cookies, cakes and pizza.

Basic Cardboard Box Oven:

Wrap foil on inside of open box.
Cut a view opening (box bottom).
Place coals in the fire pit.
Position four cans and a rack.
Light the coals.
Place your dish on the rack.
Monitor cooking through window.

Coleman Box oven. Borrowing on the idea of the classic
cardboard box oven is the Coleman box oven, pictured
immediate left. Place the Coleman box oven, on top of a
Coleman two- or three-burner stove, which provides all the
heat you need to bake your favorite dishes. This oven would
work also on a heat source such as charcoal, though it will
get soot from the charcoal. The Coleman box oven looks like
a mini safe, but it's actually a mini oven. Made of aluminized
steel, you can bake batches of muffins, biscuits or rolls to
enhance your outdoor cooking experience.

Envirofit Charcoal Stove. Envirofit makes the worlds most
fuel efficient charcoal stove! Pictured right, the Envirofit
Charcoal Stove has a 63% reduction in fuel consumption over
traditional charcoal stoves. That's an important distinction
for preppers. What's more, this stove is "carbon" friendly. It
has the highest CO2 reduction of any stove on the market.

Lodge Charcoal Grill: The Lodge Coal Grill, pictured right is
a rugged, charcoal Hibachi-style grill has two adjustable
heights. A draft door regulates the heat. Ideal for anywhere
you need a self contained cooking source. Coals are
accessible behind a flip down door. It's seasoned and ready
to use.

Method #6: Gas (Propane, Butane or mixed gas).
When it comes to gas stoves, you need to consider the fuel:

Propane is a dependable fuel at high altitudes and freezing
temperatures; however, propane tanks are thick walled, so they
are too heavy to carry in a backpack. Leave this kind of stove in
your backyard or take it car camping.

Butane does not do well in below freezing temperatures. Like
propane, butane stoves also come in pressurized tanks, but
butane cartridges generally can't be refilled. And when the tank is
low, it looses it's efficiency. Unfortunately, butane canisters are
not always easy to find.

Coleman Two-Burner Propane Stove (propane stove).
Pictured in green is the Coleman Two-Burner Propane Stove.
Coleman's PerfectFlow appliances regulate the pressure of
the propane to provide a consistent cooking performance
without flaring or flickering. The stove also provides
windblock side panels. It runs on Coleman Liquid Fuel
(propane) or even unleaded gasoline.

Coleman PerfectFlow InstaStart Grill Stove (propane
stove), pictured in red, is a top seller. InstaStart technology
means it's matchless - This stove packs 10,000 BTUs of
cooking power! Coleman's PerfectFlow appliance regulates
the pressure of the propane to provide a consistent cooking
performance without flaring or flickering. It takes propane
bottles. This steel grill offers two cooking surfaces to get
that meal in those hungry stomachs in no time

Camp Chef Outdoor Camp Oven (propane stove and
oven). Pictured right, the Camp Chef Outdoor Camp Oven
cooks for up to 5 hours on high heat with one 1-pound can of
propane. Imagine baking fresh bread and cookies, pizza,
lasagna and so much more. Certainly, this will be a morale
booster in uncertain times, and you can enjoy it today
camping!

Solaire Portable Infrared Propane Gas Grill (propane
grill). The Solaire portable Infrared Propane Gas Grill, uses 1
pound propane cylinders (larger tank with optional adapter).
This is luxury grill for your bugout location or backyard. The
shipping weight is 27 pounds and it includes a carrying case,
so technically it is a portable grill.

NOTE: Proper storage of propane cylinders is important.

Don't

store a cylinder in a closed storage compartment.

GasOne GS-3000 Portable Gas Stove. Unlike gas stoves
from other manufacturers, GS-3000 is CSA approved for
safety and uses quality materials to meet higher standards.
This stove uses standard 8oz butane canisters and features
a piezo type electric starter with safety shut off system, so
it does not require matches or lighters! Best of all, the
GasOne stove, pictured immediate right, is around $28 with
free available shipping.

Etekcity Collapsible Butane Stove: Designed with travel in
mind, the Portable Windproof Butane Outdoor Stove by
Etekcity butane stove, pictured in red, is constructed of
water-resistant materials and intended to be used outdoors
on camping trips or other outdoor activities. It was built to
take a beating and to travel everywhere you do. Safe and
easy to connect to a butane canister, the outdoor stove has
a built-in electric spark ignition system and includes flame
control. Flame control allows operators to change between a
powerful flame and a lower intensity flame for ultimate
control.

Kerosene stoves (liquid paraffin).

On the positive side, fuel for a kerosene stove costs just a

few

cents an hour to burn and this fuel does not evaporate

quickly.

The bad part is that it smells, and because it doesn't

evaporate

quickly, you'll have a residue if you spill. It also

may not be

available. The Kerosene Cook and Canning Stove.

Pictured in red,

immediate right, is no longer available.

#7: Flameless stoves and cookers.
Borrowing on the principal of MREs (Meals Ready to Eat) you can
cook your own meals in ~ either cooking entirely from scratch or
in heating up freeze dried meals or canned foods using flameless
stoves and cookers.

No pot, not stove, no fire, no problem!

Yabul Flameless heater. With the Yabul flameless heater
you just add water to activate the disposable heater pack
anytime anywhere. Heat and steam from the pack reactivate
with water and will heat any MREs or ready made meals. No
need for a campfire pan or a gas stove, and there's no need
to worry the wind blowing. It's completely flameless, fast
and completely safe way to cook backpacking food and
emergency food. It gives you the flexibilty to make your own
MRE meals. You can even bring frozen food on an outing and
have warm food ready quickly when you get back to the car.

Flameless Cooker Pot. The flameless cooker, right, is a
large pot so you can cook hearty meals for a family or larger
group.

Magic cook: the M agic cook flamess cooker, as seen on
Shark Tank, is the most versatile lunch box container cooker
ever. Magic Cook container was designed for cooking &

made of Quick Lime, Non-Toxic flameless heat generated by
water activation. Once cooking is completed, magic pack will
absorbed all water and simply just trash as household
waste. Magic Cook is perfect for the use of all outdoor,
camping, survival kits.

Method #8: Solar ovens.
A solar oven (also sometimes called solar cooker) is made with
aluminum reflectors to bake foods using the sun's energy. Used
to either heat food or sterilize water, this outdoor cooking
method concentrates sunlight thereby converting light to heat,
and trapping heat. Solar cooking has been around for centuries,
but up to now, not many people have had the opportunity to try
cooking with the sun.

All American Sun Oven. Harness the power of the sun with
the All American Sun Oven. One source of power that never
fails is the light of the sun. Whether you’re dealing with a
power outage or conserving energy, it lets you harness the
power of the sun to cook without fuel. 20% larger than prior
model SUN OVENS to cook a greater volume of food and
accommodate many standard size baking pans. The new
