Oven for baking on top of the PHybrid ??

[scotsman]

Anybody found anything that will work? Camping stoves for gas-fired stoves don't hold enough heat. Needs a temp gauge, too!

Terry, my wife does a lot of cooking on the Fireview. We use the little boot and glove driers that Woodstock sells and place the pots and pans on top of those rather than direct on the stove. We have not yet tried an oven. I had thought about one of the Coleman ovens but so far have not tried it. It seems like a Dutch Oven should work fine though.

Dennis--Ron said he had tried a camping-type stove, but that it had too many holes in it for the heat to build up like it should, so I've eliminated that from the list of possibles. I'm still looking. Will let you know if I find a workable one.

So far we've cooked scratch whole wheat biscuits and a roast. I've got two pieces of 3/4" soapstone 8" square that I've put on top of our stove. I put the roast on the top to get it going and then moved it to one of the 8" pieces for the long term cooking. Temp drop between the control point (centerline halfway between the emblem and the center of the top) and on top of the 8" piece centered on one half of the top, is 125 degrees. I try to keep the control thermo right over the rectangular hole in the metal shield beneath the top stone to get a "true" reading. I wonder how close it is.
