We were out of power for over a week and the folks had just put half a cow in the freezer. Sadly, the bbq was destroyed. But we had metal dishes that we used to cook in the fireplace. That was my first lesson in cooking meat. It was delicious.
Also where I discovered how great Heinz 57 sauce is.

We've had some days in the 70s recently; but, it's latex based and if it rains it'll just wash off.
Yup, every week we've had rain (El Nino year) and we're slated for another storm Tuesday through at least Saturday.

There's an old boy scout trick to avoid it. Rub the outside surface of the cookware with dish detergent (ideally Dawn) while it's still cold. Later when you're done cooking and the item has cooled down, the layer of soot will come off much easier.

My folks old farmhouse was built in the 1700s. It had a massive chimney that the house was built around and most of the rooms had a fireplace in them. The room that was originally used as the kitchen had a full cooking fireplace including a small beehive oven.
The chimney was so big that in the basement there was a a walkway built through the middle of it so you could get to the other side. We didn't do it all the time but holidays like Christmas we built a fire in every fireplace and boy howdy did it heat the house.

Wood is very warming. You get warmed when you haul it, stack it, split it and burn it.

They make a waterproofing type roll on as well.
The elastomeric type is recommended for limiting heat gain; but, the last house had it and you could tell it did just fine protecting the foam. We applied it every 10 years.
I'm sure it would protect your shingles as well.

Many moons ago, we had a nice cabin in the Kisatchie National Forest. My maternal grandfather provided a wood stove similar to this one (link goes to home depot) https://is.gd/wzJuog. Casting date was somewhere in the 40s if I remember correctly. Pa had me line the fire box with red clay maybe two inches thick, and then he built a fire on the outside of the damned thing to bake in the clay. Cooled it off, then brought it inside.
Gran and Mom made stews and soups on that danned thing as long as I can remember. In the winter, it would always have a cast iron kettle steaming away to humidity the cabin.
We weren't without a gas stove in the kitchen, Gran preferred the way the wood stove made soups and stews. Mom just pussed out and didn't fight her. Gran & Pa were depression era pre-teens. He dropped out of school when he was 7 to be the primary provider for his family. Hard headed Southern Baptists, with some serious opinions and survival skills.

There are six golf courses in my development and while each of them has it's own maintenance facility, they also have one facility where common tasks take place - like machinery maintenance, for example. All trees that are taken down at any of the courses are bucked and dropped off at this place - the wood is free for the taking. There is always way more available than takers. Nice!

I have 4 fireplaces, but only one set up for an open fire. One is inoperable withe the chimney removed, one has a woodstove to heat the house and one is an old fashioned very shallow Rumsford type. I sprang for pouring a liner for its chimney, but it tends to be smokey.
I have an offset grate that we can cook on on the open fire, but generally use the woodstove.

When the power goes out, as it does 2,3,4x a year, mostly in the fall or winter, it is warming and comforting. I use my camping stove to cook on.
At our family cabin on Vashon, my grandpa had a cast iron insert that really pumped out the heat. And you could cook on it. He'd scavenge logs that broke free from the timber mill booms and be warm all winter.

And I have a first world problem. I was at the lake and ready to leave. Car gave me the check oil levels light so I turned it off and popped the hood. I couldn't get the oil cap off! It would turn but wouldn't come off. A nice guy out with his daughter stopped to see if I needed help. He had to unscrew the feeder tube before he could get the cap off. He put a little oil on the threads so hope it works better next time.

Here's the money quote: I did, however, enthusiastically vote for Trump in 2020—and I’ll vote enthusiastically for whomever the Republican nominee is. Loyalty is an admirable quality, but loyalty to our nation should trump loyalty to a political figure. I’d be thrilled if Trump wins in 2024. If Ron DeSantis runs and wins the GOP primary, I’d be thrilled to see DeSantis take the oath of office as well.
Look at the damage Joe Biden has done in just over two years. If you’re willing to subject our nation to a full eight years of that just to make a point, you’re doing the work of the Democrats.
These are points I've been making for awhile.

I was looking at a parilla, but also at a Brazilian estufa de lenha which usually also has an oven attached, and researching it I discovered there are about five major styles of wood burning stoves and grills in South America. They including the Andean one where the pots hand down inside the firebox and it tends to be made of adobe bricks, the Colombian one that looks like a cast iron range made out of brick, and the Mexican Estufa Patsari, which uses a metal or clay comal inset on top to fry things.
A co worker (the one who had a problem with garden gnomes) grew up in Northern Mexico with the patsari style stoves and thought the other stoves had huge fireboxes, and I had to explain that most of South America had real trees.

I can't offer studies / data to support this, but I believe that if you let the moldy wood burn for a while before placing the meat over it, there should be no issue. Frankly, I suspect the risk is next to nothing, provided everything gets hot enough. Burning mold wouldn't really worry me at all, but mold spores can pose some risks.
Posted by: Matthew Kant Cipher at February 19, 2023 03:34 PM (QyWX+)
The kindling burns fairly quickly, falls and creates a bed of hot coals in the center, which gets the large logs going in short order. Works very, very well in an indoor setting.

The "new" part of our house is maybe eighty years. The old part of the house is a hundred-plus.
The old part's original kitchen sink had a nice-looking faucet, vertical mount, chrome, hot & cold handles, but the valves were getting worn and the cross-part had a leak from when it was allowed to freeze long ago. I got tired of changing the washers and trying to plug the leak. Found a nearly-identical retro faucet set online. Our plumber friend installed it. Only then did I realize that the new faucet had some kind of flow restrictors, apparently, because it takes over a minute to fill a gallon jug. I've looked at the doc to see if there's an obvious thing to remove (like the shower heads that say, oh, don't remove this thing or the flow won't be restricted wink wink). I'll see if our plumber can see something I didn't.
Looks nice, anyway. Doesn't leak. 😕

The problem with moldy wood is that it is wet and takes almost as much heat to boil off the moisture as it gives out when it is burning. Also. rotted wood is punky and it doesn't give out much heat, though it will preserve a coal overnight

Yeah, that's what I thought but the spores would be incinerated. I assume there would be no biologically active organisms there. The only question is 'are there toxic* chemicals released in the process'?
* actual toxic, not woo-woo bullshit from vegan-tards

Since you're asking bluebell I will guess it has something to do with either the Red Sox or a shiv.

I knew I was forgetting something: Valley Fever is the result of mold in the lungs.

Agreed, good point. My comment was made thinking the moldy timber would be burnt directly, not used as chips. But I didn't clarify.

my family in Italy did up until they got gas stoves in the 1960s. Old habits die hard, and they continued this practice when they got established here and built themselves homes with fireplaces. (il focolare)
lately my uncle has been grilling lamb chops and steaks on the hearth and it's very tough maintaining a meatless diet. That fire-cooked steak is awakening my inner carnivore.

And I have a first world problem. I was at the lake and ready to leave. Car gave me the check oil levels light so I turned it off and popped the hood.

That 'check oil level' light means it's high time you go to the car dealer and purchase a longer dipstick.

Sac will outlaw selling or collecting wood.
You wouldn't want to take wood from the forest and prevent its use in the next years fire storms!

It sucks planning a camping trip and having to make sure there are no bans. partly why I camp in Wyoming these days.

they're great for establishing a cozy mood and they look good in Christmas pictures, but as CBD mentioned, they're not much for heating a room. You have to be up close to them to feel the warmth.
But if you're going to use them to cook food,well that opens up another world of possibilities.

Right. No, it's 100% stone-dry wood but has old, dry mold on in it.

Oh I know they are not meant to heat a room, my brother has one and you have to be next to it to feel it.
It will purely be for atmosphere. On a cold, rainy day, sitting in a comfortable chair reading a book while the fire crackles is what I am looking for.

We were out of power for over a week and the folks had just put half a cow in the freezer. Sadly, the bbq was destroyed. But we had metal dishes that we used to cook in the fireplace. That was my first lesson in cooking meat. It was delicious.
Also where I discovered how great Heinz 57 sauce is.

===================
Early in his career, Hubby was almost plowed over by a female employee speed-walking around a corridor "corner" on the wrong side ... Hubby saw her a split second beforehand and, as a defensive measure, was able to raise both arms up and stretch them out in front of himself, thereby making solid contact with the female's breasts unavoidable ... Hubby remained motionless for a second or two while stabilizing from the crash, during which time the female employee said, "You can move your hands now" ... So that's exactly what hubby did -- briefly, of course, before disengaging (and apologizing) ... Fortunately, the female employee realized the crash had been her fault, she had a sense of humor, allowing both of them to chuckle and move on.
