Thread: Camp Oven

The spun steel ones are called Bedourie ovens. The reason for their being is spun steel is not brittle like cast and lighter. The Drover’s and old bush truckers like the Bedourie for these reasons. Cast ovens will crack if not packed well in a “box” or milk crate when your heading bush. Mostly it’s the lid that breaks if you allow it to vibrate and bang on the pot, (bashing along corrugated roads. so wrap the lid in a bag or old shirt and or pack separately.

Got myself an oval camp oven from Complete Outdoors
First attempt on the barbecue turned out really good ... no complaints

That looks good! Did you grab a trivet for it also? if not certainly worthwhile.

Being the practical type, I cut up an old concrete saw blade found on the building site, works a treat
