In this video, I demonstrate how to use a Keyhole Fire together with a Pathfinder Carbon Steel Skillet to create a lightweight Dutch oven system capable of baking excellent Brown Sugar Bannock in camp.
We’ll discuss:
* How a Keyhole Fire works
* Managing coals for top and bottom heat
* Why carbon steel is an outstanding choice for camp cooking
* How to turn a skillet into an effective Dutch oven
* Baking sweet bannock over live coals
* Fire management and temperature control
* Tips for successful camp baking every time
This is an excellent technique for bushcraft, camping, overlanding, canoe camping, and anyone wanting to bake without carrying heavy cast iron.
Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced outdoorsman, this traditional method can dramatically expand your camp cooking options while keeping your kit lightweight and versatile.
