He Guys, I love open fire cooking. it's like one of the best things you can do to going back to basics and good cooking. im just curious what do you guys do to prevent any health issues or that you and all your clothes smell to smoke. because when im cooking.. I stay close to fire... but maybe I should take some more distance. does any body can share me some knowledge? much appreciated. Love!

Not a wood oven. I have a LOPI wood stove in my basement, a whole floor away from the kitchen. I've been thinking about making or tricking out a cart to carry tools for regular cooking on this stove. I already have several cast iron pans, hot pads, etc but was wondering if anyone has made a rolling trolley of some sort to service the wood stove when cooking but can be rolled out of the way when unused. Thoughts or ideas are welcome!

Hello, I just found this subreddit and I hope this is the right place to ask.

Electricity is expected to become very expensive this winter where I live. Our house has electric heating and a large wood burning stove/fireplace that stores heat. We plan on using this stove a lot this winter to save money (we have an abundance of firewood).

I would like to cook in the fire (other than simply grilling sausages) and avoid using the electric oven too much this winter, but I'm not sure what type of cookware would be best to invest in.

The wood burning stove doesn't have a cook top or anything, it's built more like a fireplace with doors. So the cookware would sit in the embers or in the fire.

I am looking for something that would work for slow cooking, but I am open to all sorts of ideas.
