Oooh, that's awesome. I'm salivating seeing you cooking on coals, that sauce looks absolutely amazing. I'm really excited to get our coal-fired oven going- we bought a house a couple years ago that had a fireplace in the kitchen, and we've just had it reconditioned prior to putting some black iron doors on it and turning it into a wood fired oven, and I can't wait to actually start using it! Here's the fireplace in it's current state: https://imgur.com/PPRxBgp

Reply to comment by fubar6 in Guys, ROTHY’S! They don’t have a lifetime guarantee, but I’ve had this pair 6 years and look at them! These were an absolute muddy mess before I threw them in the washer. Bonus, they are even comfortable. by mrsmeesiecks
I wish I could say, I only bought the bigger size. I also bought them used (don’t judge) so I may have never had issues because someone else broke them in for me

That really sucks! I have my grandma’s big, wide feet and they never caused me issue, although I did have to size up

There's something incredibly warming about continuing to use kitchen ware that's been in the family for decades...well done 😊

for this kind of cooking you don't really need high temperatures, you just need a pot with a tick bottom for spreading the heat around and time.
​
the sauce need to stay very close to the boiling point but doesn't need to boil.
​
when i cook on the fireplace i just use ember from buring Olive three wood, it's very hot and last for hours .

Reply to comment by JimJalinsky in Make my choice: which stainless steel food container should I get? Round, Rectangle or Square? Looking to get away from plastic containers for the kids but can't decide which one is more practical in long run by klaroline1
Not really, otherwise how would you cook pasta sauce even? Good stainless steel is ok

The Ikea 365+ ones. The lids are the same through the whole line (and they sell them separately), they are watertight and they don't scratch. I think they have both squared and rectangular ones in steel.

Reply to comment by BoilerButtSlut in I realize it can never really be BIFL, but does anyone have a good recommendation for a dishwasher? by chasonreddit
That wasn't my point at all. The point was; a person can buy an excellent, older, used appliance that was built to last, for a minimal investment.

I've never had much luck cooking on a fireplace, surprised OP was able to get the temperature high and sustained enough to cook that stew?
I find either the fire is too hot, or just goes through fuel far too quickly.

Yes their sizing is insane. I am a 9.5 wide so my first few pairs (including points) are a 10.5. I really should’ve bought 11s or 11.5 in the points. I have settled that in the future with the flats that the 11 does fit me better. I actually prefer the flat to the point tbh. I have one pair of 11 flats. I would sell my 10.5s but they haven’t re released what I want to replace the smaller ones with yet (red camo, copper, and Python fig) and probably won’t. Bummer.

Haha that’s the correct term you’re all good! Just kidding around because a lot of people also call weed “pot”.
