(Video) Primitive Cooking on a Rock While Surviving in the Wild

cooking-bannock-on-stone

Connie's cooking adventure is inspiring, but you should pay attention to some key tips to make your cooking experience a little easier. For one thing, you need to find a large solid rock with a flat top.

It's also important to know that you can successfully cook your entire meal on a rock, you may also want to come up with a backup plan in case your chosen rock falls apart during the cooking session.

Unfortunately, there is no fool-proof method to find a rock that will last throughout the cooking session, it's just something you have to try.

Now onward to the video.

Cooking on a campfire has never looked more fun than this. Next time you're out camping with friends,  you should try cooking a meal on a stone griddle.

    Depends on where you live. Im michigian the types of rock there common, you can cook on.
    Learned the hard way moving to montana though. The nice flat rocks here. NEVER cook on.

    When choosing rocks, never take them out of a stream. There is good chance they will fracture and possibly explode. I have never cooked on a rock stove but I do heat rocks to put in the bottom of my sleeping bag.

    I always get my cookin rocks out of streams because they are smoother and flatter. But cant just throw em straight on or they will bust more than likely. But i put it close to fire and keep moving it closer for several hours or over night if im gonna be at a location for several days. Never had one bust doing it like that

    Rock work great for heat too…
    Used a tripod and put them in a kettle. Heat radiated all night, made for a cozy tent.
    My daughter thought it was amazing as ot was up in Stanley, Id and it was just below freezing even though it was in the summer (kind of normal night temp for that area)
