whats in your cooking kit

Typical sods law!! I know they're in the pantry somewhere but be damned if I can find them!!

Peaks, they're exactly like that set there! All I did was get them and add a camping pan handle and they work a treat!

Taken pics of my billy can set though - amazing what you can get in it really!!







One Billy holds a hobo fire, a smaller Billy and lid made from a sugar canister, a pan handle, a tin of fat wood, a tin of kapok, a pot of cotton wool and Vaseline, a tin of char cloth, a bic lighter and a fire steel!

What I take depends on what I'm doing.
For just a simple brew kit then I use a titanium pot/mug - it fits snugly under a nalgene bottle and you can use it to boil the water and drink from (just like the old crusader mug).
A cooking option is the crusader mess tin.
You can boil up in the main tin, then use it for cooking in, and use the lid as a frying pan. I use it with all the usual kinds of stove - gas, meths, wood stove. I even rigged up a bit of chain so it could be suspended over a fire. Not sure how much the crusader mess tin is (£20?) but its money well spent. The size and shape is perfect for one person and because it's flatter than a zebra billy it's easier to pack and find a space for. And being stainless steel means it's tough.
