Description / Petromax Charcoal Maker for Open-Fire Cooking

When you’re cooking outdoors or planning for days off-grid, being able to make charcoal from wood gives you another option for the fire. The Petromax Charcoal Maker is a stainless steel canister that uses low-oxygen combustion to turn wood into charcoal for grilling.

Fill the canister with your chosen wood; birch and beech work particularly well. Place it in the fire and watch the smoke: the change from yellow to white signals that the charcoal is ready. The resulting hardwood charcoal has a long burning time and low smoke, and can be used for grilling on a barbecue or Petromax Atago.

Where it fits in your kit

  • Off-grid cooking setup: make charcoal from suitable wood for grilling.
  • Camp cooking area: use the charcoal for outdoor meals.
  • Home emergency box: keep a way to make cooking fuel as a backup for planned outages.
  • Woodstore or shed: store it with your outdoor cooking equipment.

Prep tips

  • Practise using the charcoal maker before relying on it during a disruption.
  • Keep a separate means of starting and tending the fire.
  • Use it outdoors in a suitable fire area, with safe clearance from nearby materials.
