Pots, Pans and Kettles. My Cook Kit for Bushcraft, Wild Camping and Canoe Trips.

- In this video, I will will be going through the pots, pans and kettles that I use for bushcraft, backpacking, wild camping and canoe camping. There are so many options when it comes to cookware, it can be difficult to know what is good and what is worth the money, it has taken me many years to select and whittle down the pots and pans I use and I feel they work well for my needs (although, knowing what I’m like, its bound to evolve further!)
I hope you enjoy the video and thanks for watching!

Firstly, thanks for stopping by! Secondly, I’d like to apologise for my blatant over-use of the word ‘um’ - I’ll try to mix it up a bit in future by using the word ‘err’ a bit more.
I hope you enjoy the video! Simon.
Simon, a bloke in the woods hahaha I thought that was the usual word filler that most YT uses 😄😉 no uh problem here err lol
LOL. Yes, a little variety please.
Didn't notice? We are own worse critics.
Um... I do the same 👍
Didn't notice. I just shook my head at what a bad kit junkie you are🤣🤣
There is a guy here in Ohio who is quite knowledgeable in hobo history. He makes a complete cook kit made of food cans.
All hail the Dutch Oven. Used them in scouting and still do.
There are a couple of Bushcrafters whose videos make me happy, and yours is one of them. Your spirit is so soothing.
Agree
Thank you Joyce! 😁😁
Simon, Another great Job.thank you. GARY from Ohio,U.S.A.
Firebox has a nice looking cook set, made from anodized aluminum. It's just a skillet and a dish, but you can opt for a non-stick skillet...
Nice look at your pants I really cheered when I saw the cast iron tortilla pan come out because I have one that's a bit smaller than that, that's good enough for doing two eggs on, but I carry around a little flour and make flour tortillas when I'm on the trail because they're real easy they come in a premix so all you got to do is add water stir let them rise for 15 minutes and you're ready to go.
Surely you’re a BBC presenter in the making Simon. A super clear video explaining all your gear in a concise and digestible way. This has saved me a ton of time looking gear up on various other websites. Sterling work sir. Top job!
Bbc 😩
Hi Simon, I asked you elsewhere where I could find this fajita pan. I knew I'd seen it somewhere before. Anyway, all I have to do now is find one close to this beauty. Thanks for all your diverse posts.
Great kit Mate! Thanks for sharing! Always good to hang out you!
Fantastic video but my god I was screaming at you to snap the stick in the shot that you kept hitting 😂.

Thanks Simon for the video's keep cool and PEACE
I think this is a very helpful video for alot of people especially those just purchasing and some of us that just love cooking at camp 👍👍I believe after all the years I've camped and backpacked I realized cooking may be my favorite thing wile out on the trail.
Me too! Well, one of them - it’s that nice time of the evening, all the chores and duties are done - camp set up, firewood collected and prepped, everything squared away - then sitting down to go through the ritual of cooking - very relaxing!
What a fantastic looking canoe, as usual a great video !
Simon, First of all, thank you for showing me all of my old haunts from my childhood (30 yrs ago), Your'e secret island was my playground! I'm a Dorset boy nowadays. Secondly, many thanks to Yourself, Hazey, Kent and Mike TA for inspiring to get back out and into the fresh air. Cheers from Dorset.
your'e only ''too old'' if you literally need a proper walking frame to get out into the woods :)
My pleasure mate! I love that island - my sanctuary from the mad world! Glad to have been an inspiration 😁
What a great video! I really enjoyed it and found it very useful. Thanks for all the good tips!
First time viewer; enjoyed your POST, Intelligent Thoughtful & Entertaining; a well Thought out presentation "Thumbs UP"!

Very nice. Thank you.
That's one of the coolest canoes I've ever seen.
Kudos! ☺
Thank you! 👍🛶
When the video started I thought to myself ''blimey, look how easily he drags that canoe around'. The surprise only lasted for 6 seconds and then the truth was revealed. :-) Nice.
Great informative and inspiring series, no waffle, straight forward advice and description, love it !
Good music,good video,I love it.
Very interesting. Great segment.

Nice cook kit department there brother. Appreciate the input on them and the sensible way of how to haul. Awesome tips and suggestions as always mate. Thank you. 👍🏼👊🏼🤙🏼
Thanks mate!
That crate is great for canoe trips (those without portages!!) the crate doubles as a really useful table, bench, seat plus it’s waterproof, so can stay out in the rain. Glad you enjoyed it buddy! 👍
Great video!
Simon:
I can't help but smile while watching your videos.
You are a well rounded man with skills!
I still have my boy scout mess kit and a couple army kits as well.
Don't do any backpacking anymore, but I still like to car camp and my little svea stove is still my go to for a fast pot of boiling water first thing in the morning.
Keep on with these videos, gives me encouragement to keep outdoors.
Cheers Rod! Great stoves, those Sveas - been after one for a while. 👍
Thanks Simon.
I wanted to reach out a snap that twig for you, LOL Another great video Simon, thanks for showing us your Pots, kettles and Pan collection. It sure gives us a visual on what's being used in the field.
Good gear. I like the small Dutch oven. Your canoë is very nice. Thanks
Thank you buddy! 😁
one of the best kit videos ive ever watched very very professional like 🌲🇨🇦🌲
Thank you Richard! Really glad you liked it buddy 😁
Great video and I love Maggie she always puts a smile on my face. Ed snature🍁🇨🇦🙏
Very useful thank you.
Your canoe is nothing short of amazing. What a great skill you have
Thank you! 🛶
Simon, great video. Thought I had enough pans, but after seeing your video I just bought a couple more!
This video is great.I am trying to shoot a video as good as you. I always cheer you on.
Nice one Simon
Great video 😊🌲
Super job and good ideas I broke my back in two places but determined to get out there so will be going truck camping. Ed 🇨🇦👍🍺🔥⛺️🏕
Simon, thank you for this video. Great info. Also good to see that I'm not the only one that collects various cooking pots, billy cans and kettles!
It’s a condition with no known cure!! 😂👍
Always happy to see Maggie.
I'm one that uses cast iron, i use an 8" dutch oven with a lid that can be used as a skillet even when hiking, but im usually out with 2 or more people and most of the time I am the one cooking. It's bad when you get used to cooking with one and switch to another. By the way like the videos. And i take my 4 legged with us, (Daisy 14yrs) she loves getting out as much as we do.. makes everyone happy.
Very helpfull. Thanks
Hello :) thx for sharing :)
A wow canoe and dog is obviously enjoying the camp life lol :)
Video puts the whole pots and pans lot into perspective :)
Thank you! Yes, she loves it - a good (if soggy) camp companion 😁
Great video of your pots and pans and kettles Cook kit , I'm going out camping with my cook kit to my camp site
Thanks Andrew! Enjoy your camp!
Thanks Simon
Brilliant stuff Simon. Really enjoyed the review and learned a couple things. Also good to see Maggie. She is a star. Thanks for the terrific content. Always look forward to your work. Cheers
Thanks Carl!
Love your dog
This is the best channel I’ve found on here in ten plus years of viewing. You’re a talented individual.
Thank you Ryan - appreciated!! 👍
Great video! I really enjoyed the canoe shots. Also it's really cool to see what kind of gear other people use. I really appreciate all of the great info on each item. Thank you so much for sharing this. :-)
Thanks Sarah! Glad it was helpful. 😁
Great Video and nice collection of cookware, I believe its an evolution that we all go through where we start at one place and move through the lightweight, cast iron, non stick, open fire, spirit stove, gas stove, but we always seems to go back to those few favorites. keep the great content coming.
Thanks mate, I know - If I only had two of those items - the12cm zebra and my skillet, id be quite content!! 😁
Just love the opening scenes!!! The rest isn't bad either!!! "Thanks Mags", lol ;-)
😁👍
The Petromax is so cute!
Hi Simon..another great video..like you I too have an array of pots pans zebbza pots trangia stove etc..all really useful as you point out.. depending on what I'm doing..and what I'm cooking..I think that you have inspired people who are new to the bushcraft side of the outdoors a great review of the usefulness of the items they may need..
Love the vid... keep them coming !!
Thanks Philip! 😁
Beautiful dog - The most beautiful wooden canoe I've ever seen and thanks for all the links . I gotta get one of those big British Army mess kits . Nice and square for a back pack and whoever designed it knew what they were doing . Thanks Simon and please give that lovely dog a hug for me . Lefty
Will do mate! 😁 I should use that tin more - it’s a good size!
Great video, very informative. I’m currently on the lookout for a Falkirk 3 cast iron pot on three legs, but the ones I’ve found are quite expensive, but I’ll get one eventually ☺️😉👍
Pretty cool cook pots you got there !....lol
great video mate! love the end clip with your dog in the canoe haha
Cheers! She’s the star of the show, Maggie is! 😁
Enjoyed that, thank you! Very useful.
Looking forward to using my recently bought vintage US 1942 WWII mess tin!
Diana you should film that and post it.
Nice! Love vintage gear - so much more enjoyable to use and built to last! Enjoy it! 😁
