(1 rating)
I love doing openhearth cooking and have done so for over 18 years now. My home has the original cooking fireplace with original crane and fireback and I have made many a meal in it. This is one of my favorites and can be adapted for camping or conventional cooking. I hope you will try it. Happy Cooking!
