I've been looking for an energy saving replacement to my propane grill.  This Lorena rockety cooktop looks like it just might work.  Replacing propane with small bits of wood to run the rocket stove would save me money because I can burn the branches trimmed off my trees.  Plus, this has a couple different types of cooking surfaces, a double boiler and a cooktop.

Cool rocket!

If grilling meats, I think it'll be a bit more hands-on than a propane grill. Keeping a consistent temperature will be challenging -- you might have some "burnt offerings" while you get the routine sorted out. The flavour will be great, though.

Lol...thank you for the advice!  I'm already adept at "burnt offerings".  I've had to train myself to not walk away while cooking!
 
It is an experimental device that will make my mind that most powerful force on earth! More powerful than this tiny ad!
