O/T Camping kettle thingy

Recommended Posts

I'd always considered a Kelly Kettle to be a 'natural fuel' stove, twigs and sticks, possibly pre-prepared, and therefore a bit of a pain. What I've got from some comments in this thread is that I could consider the KK to be a diesel fuel stove, and the only preparation is a newspaper, diesel being my engine fuel of choice. Is 'a diesel fuelled stove' a reasonable description? Because that sounds more my style. What about soot?

Just to be more awkward, what's it like for doing cooking a little more complicated than burning water?

Cheers.

Mine is great for cooking pot noodles, instant mash and the like. :)

Once the kettle is boiled you get some nice hot embers in the bottom which will continue to burn like a BBQ for some while. This will allow you to cook something simple, frying bacon for example, or perhaps more if you added a few lumps of lumpwood charcoal to keep it running.
