Good stuff Mike. Here's a tip from a Chef. Try dry brining your steak with an equal mix of Kosher Salt, Garlic Powder and fresh Cracked Black Pepper. Let it sit in the fridge for a day or two uncovered on a plate turning it every 12 hours. There won't be any odor at all and the steak will dry naturally. Then you can put it into a zip lock baggie and carry it out into the woods, grill it quickly over an open flame for a min to min and a half each side. Then let it rest for a few minutes and you'll have yourself a perfect Med rare to Med steak. Enjoy and Cheers to you and your Dad

As you say, there are a number of Swedish Fire Torch instructional videos out there: I have seen my share of them. Each 'take' on the torch adds its own twist or wrinkle: yours was the use of wire to hold the split sections together Other ideas split out a central core from each section to allow for more shavings and kindling to catch things and to provide more initial fire surface. I feel that this is a 'fuel efficient' set up: boil water and fry in the early going; simmer or use a Dutch Oven later.

Thanks for showing the proper way to use the fire torch. Due to the popularity of Bush craft sites, here in the southwest U. S., we have hardware and outdoor stores starting to sell a commercially made swedish torch. Unfortunately the manufacturer's assume the buyer will automatically know the best way to get them going. As a side note, any idea when clay will be available for daub?

I like a good Scotch Fillet Steak, cooked tomatoes cut in half where you slightly burn them, they taste really nice that way. Potato slices cooked on the frypan with a bit of butter, thin strips of carrot, fried onion, fresh green beans & sweet corn kernels. Just the simple types of veg & a nice steak to go with it washed down with a couple of cans of pre-mixed bourbon & cola drinks.

A heads up. For some reason I lose audio on your vids and am forced to reboot and go back to where I left off. This does NOT happen with other You tube vids I watch and I watch a lot of them, a lot. So, I have to assume this is originating from your side. Are you aware of this? Regards.

It is a Canadian torch and you forgot the wire you loosely wrap around the log so that you do not loose the pan and ten dollar steak to the fire We would split the log and cut the heart wood out of the center. Some how lost in Sweedish translation Scott from N. H. and Canada

Hey Mike. Following up from my earlier comment, I wish you could add a TA Outdoors sticker to your merch list. Love to have one on my camper, truck and tool chest in my shop. I already have your sweater/sweat shirt. Just a thought. Cheers mate

For the Swedish fire log: you can also use a chainsaw, if you have one. Don't make the cuts all the way to the bottom though and it will hold together by itself. Still burns wonderfully and transports easy with no chance of falling apart.

Hello. I'm Ege. I live in Turkey. I watch your videos and follow you closely. But I can't understand what you're talking about in the videos. If you add different language options to your videos, your videos will reach more people.
