- James "Mike" Thomas demonstrates traditional charcoal making the Grenadian way. On Grenada, many still cook with charcoal made from hardwood, often buying or making charcoal as they clear land for farming. Charcoal pits are created and wood is buried, then burned slowly until converted to coals, which are then quenched and stored for cooking. Charcoal is sometimes called "biochar." Whatever you call it, it's good for cooking oildown!
Great job james !
Thats the way we use to do it also over here !!
Caribbean style 🙌
Pure knowledge. Hope it’s passed on
Enjoyed looking at this, it brought back so much memories ❤
Thanks very much for sharing.
You did great😊
nice job man..!!
This is so amazing. This shows that there's no age limit in any talent.
This is not something for young people. It takes years of practice. The older the person doing it is the more talented they are.
@locall_herbs yeah no one under age 80 could ever light a fire and cover it with dirt
No age limit to any talent huh? You see alot of elderly gymnasts? How about 90 year old mountain climbers, basketball players, track stars or skiers?
Can we used wet wood?
One has to be gifted to have the ability, to make charcoal.
Thank you Sir for your service to Humanity.⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Wouldn't be surprised to learn David the Good filmed all of this. Where did the camera man and editor of this channel go?
I used to make them when I was younger, I grow up in the village. Now I move to the USA it is different.
I like this vidio..its originel cultur
I wonder if the longer process makes the wood stronger, this burning longer?
This King Is very inspirational keeping the knowledge of his tradition up. How much profit does all that charcoal bring in?
Put it this way the harder the wood the longer-term it will last there's special wood for that and u know when it's
hard because of the sparks
it gives out of
(kupairsh ) 👍🏿
Just like Cuba!
Interesting way of making charcoal.. I feel like this was an incredible amount of work and took a long time though... there are a lot of ways to make it pretty simply, including covering a pile of wood in mud and let it burn for a few hours before plugging up the air holes. That only takes like 6 hours. This took several days. It’s always interesting seeing it done if different ways though.
this is a whole lot more charcoal though
More wood more time it takes.
And the longer it takes the better d quality of the charcoal,it last longer for kitchen purpose.🤗
What's banana stems for?
Can we used wet wood?
Couldn’t u use steel sheet metal with holes punched into it to line between the soil and wood. Seems like it’d cut the work in half.
I feel bad for him. That's so much work for him. For charcoal.
It’s a whole lotta charcoal
Who watching this in 2021
crude and laborious
Someone needs to tell them to use it in the soil.
What will this do?
Ummm, unfortunately, I can't really catch most of what he is saying. :(
The newer ways might be quicker, but this way burns very thick wood
There are older ways that are faster and waste less wood too.
@@Moosterytell me more😅
Curtir.
He's a tough ole bird! There may have been an easier way, maybe not. Anything easy holds little value. The lamb was his little buddy
I can't think of a more wasteful, time, and effort consuming way to make charcoal. What a lot of work and wood for such little charcoal.
What method do you like?
You must be white

He may have lost a lot of coal for cooking, but if that area he used as a pit will be used for gardening, he will be surprised why his yield is so abundant!😊
You think while he's stacking the wood he saying I hate President Reagan?
Lots of wastage....
Not sure this is a very good way of making charcoal...
Better way?
Destroying there own country
