Black Dog Posted May 13, 2008 Author Share Posted May 13, 2008 Aye Dutch - saw that one. I have some books with all sorts of stuff on the topic. Most of the printed material I have gives detail on what they had after our period but ask this question - how much did food prep and preservation change over the next 20 - 30 years after the GAOP. Not much. They added iron stoves - may have been about it. As to the rack for the barrel - an iron rack to hold the wood/ fire off the bottom of the barrel - reduces the contact of fire to dropped coals and ashes. The hottest part of the fire stays off any other surface. Essentially an iron box within the barrel. I old legged frying pan may work well for this - trying to remember if we have one in the chest.
