1002 Post on Rocket Stoves + A Giveaway!!!

I’m officially LEGIT!  I just received my 1st hate mail about what an idiot I was for writing the 1001 article on Rocket Stoves, but you can read more about what he wrote me on Facebook ;) I can’t help but to point out the fact that the Rocket Stove post has been pinned over 10,000 times, and gets viewed over 700 times A DAY since I posted it last week! Thanks everyone for showing it so much love!!! Anyways, I couldn’t resist, I had to write one more post, just for kicks!!! So let me present to you the 1002 post on Rocket Stoves! This one is even better (or more stupid, depending on who you ask), because this time we are doing a Rocket Stove Giveaway!!!

RocketStoveGiveaway

To receive entries, all you have to do is like us on Facebook and leave a comment below. For bonus points, you can come back every day for the next week and pin something from this blog! That’s it – click the picture above or the link below to enter!!!

CLICK HERE TO ENTER!!!

A few of you have noticed I’ve pimped out my stove, and you can too! By drilling a hole in each side and using a wire hanger you can make a handle. Also, to help the stove last longer and make it look tough, spray a coat or two of heat-resistant paint on it!

The work has already been done and it comes with all the upgrades. It’s a great gift idea for Father’s Day too, unless your Dad happens to be the one that wrote the comment to me expressing his inner hatred towards rocket stoves, in which case it might put him over the edge! Come to think of it… I’m more than happy to send him one for free ;)

If you still want to be macho or impress your man, here are the supplies you’ll need to make one:

  • #10 CAN W/ LID – $.90
  • 2 LARGE 28oz CANS – $3.15
  • INSULATION – $7.83

This is short video on how to cook with your rocket stove, so if you’re still a little hesitant or don’t fully understand how it works, take 2 minutes to watch! Plus his kids are super adorable (so don’t watch if  you’re a creep)!

 

Buy One HERE!

Everything decided to fall apart this week so I’m taking off for a mini break, but have lots of crazy posts in the works for when I get back. Hopefully, the cable guys will have fixed the internet connection, my computer will be working, my blog will have been switched to a decent host, and everything will be back up to speed. I really appreciate everyone’s comment & emails and promise I’m not ignoring you, I just don’t have internet right now. I’m also trying hard to not to throw my computer out the window! Hopefully things will get working before I get back, or else I’m leaving my computer and my rocket stove unattended with the kids while I cook a PopTart. That should be plenty of enough time for some serious damage to occur and the excuse I need to get a new computer:)

      Hello from Canada, I think the rocket stove is a wonderful idea. I found the little video helpful and after a few try’s, got a fire going and cooked my dinner. I am planning a road trip and the rocket stove will be coming along.

    I had a similar stove years ago, that my dad and I built while I was in Girl Scouts. I used it in college during my winter field ecology class. I’m now the YW president in our Ward and think these would be great for each of the girls to make.

    I really enjoyed the blog & I thinl your rocket stove is awesome. If I were to win one, the first thing I would make on it is bratwurst. I mentor teenagers & they love those brats. I would show that the with a great rocket stove they can still enjoy a great meal in the outdoors.

    The first thing I would make would be a nice steak! Those stoves get super hot and would make a great crust that would rival the fanciest steakhouse.
