You might not know it yet, but you need one of these
If you like sitting around an actual fire instead of an ultralight backpacking stove, and if you like real food instead of freeze-dried stuff in pouches, then a reflector oven will bring joy to your life, and this is a nice one. It sits level - no need to prop the back up with a rock. The rear door means you don’t have to pick it up to check progress or rotate a pan. The double handles mean you can probably adjust its distance from the fire without dumping your biscuits in the dirt. Probably. It packs flat, but it's sturdy when assembled because the slots and tabs fit precisely, and the panels are reinforced with folded edges. It’s large enough to accommodate a quarter-sheet baking pan with enough space left over for air and heat circulation. It’s also large enough to send heat and light from the far side of your campfire back towards you, and to draw the smoke from the fire upwards over your head instead of into your face. A couple nested baking pans and a stack of parchment paper will slide into the nylon case along with the oven. I’ve only had mine for a few days, but so far it’s turned out cinnamon rolls, sourdough biscuits, sourdough pizza, blueberry muffins, roasted potatoes, and shepherd’s pie. The one problem I had was that the wire racks tended to slide out and fall down inadvertently. I think I solved that by bending the ends slightly. Other reflector ovens are less expensive, but the engineering, workmanship and size of this one make it a good value. In case you aren’t yet acquainted with reflector ovens, they are easier, faster, lighter, more versatile and more efficient than Dutch ovens and grills. They’ll bake, boil, fry, sauté and roast. They like flames rather than coals, so there’s no need to wait for a hardwood fire to burn down. No need to even use hardwood; squaw wood works fine. And you only need enough to produce flames the length and height of the oven. You can keep an eye on what you’re cooking instead of guessing when it’s done. If you put parchment paper on the baking sheets, clean-up is just throwing it in the fire. It’s not necessary to keep reflector ovens shiny, either. They really “trap” rather than “reflect” heat. Without boring you with the physics, tarnished old ones work just as well as bright new ones. I know this because I’m a thermal engineer specializing in infrared and visible electromagnetic radiant energy emitted by flames that converts to heat when it hits an object and is absorbed. Okay, I made that up. I’m really just a slob who doesn’t bother cleaning the soot off his ovens. But you can trust me on this.
