We're about to go back to the bare basics of living and show you how to cook in the wilderness using nothing more a fire and rock. Sometimes the most ingenious ways of living come from simple science and a little creative thinking. If you're a survivalist or adventure camper that likes to really rough it out in the great outdoors, the following video will show you how.
In the following video, Connie from Far North Bushcraft & Survival fills shows us her clever campfire setup, how to cook bacon, collect grease, and fry up onions in grease. The real highlight of the video is when she shows us how to cook up stuffed bannock, a variety of quick bread that is similar to tortillas.
Although she doesn't share the details on how she made the dough, she does demonstrate flattening it out before covering it with bacon, onion, mushrooms, olives, and cheese. She then sprinkles a little bit of water over the edges of the bread, adds another flat piece of dough to cover it up, and presses the edges together. Her version of stuffed bannock reminds us of empanadas and actually makes us hungry!
You can view the entire video of her culinary adventure on the next page.

Until the rock explodes due too moister trapped inside it.
Ive had it happen, goes off like a grenade with shrapenal.
Depends on where you live. Im michigian the types of rock there common, you can cook on.
Learned the hard way moving to montana though. The nice flat rocks here. NEVER cook on.
When choosing rocks, never take them out of a stream. There is good chance they will fracture and possibly explode. I have never cooked on a rock stove but I do heat rocks to put in the bottom of my sleeping bag.
They can explode to and hurt you

Yes !!!!
I always get my cookin rocks out of streams because they are smoother and flatter. But cant just throw em straight on or they will bust more than likely. But i put it close to fire and keep moving it closer for several hours or over night if im gonna be at a location for several days. Never had one bust doing it like that
Rock work great for heat too…
Used a tripod and put them in a kettle. Heat radiated all night, made for a cozy tent.
My daughter thought it was amazing as ot was up in Stanley, Id and it was just below freezing even though it was in the summer (kind of normal night temp for that area)
