FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

WHAT IS A FIRE COOK STAND?

The Ember Kitchen Cook Stand is a sturdy flat packing base for pans, griddles, dutch ovens, grills or any other fire safe cooking surface. Our stand sits directly in the fire, where you tend embers at the base to create a stable, heat regulated cooking area.

IS IT PORTABLE?

Yes! Use Ember Kitchen products anywhere you can build a fire (preferably outside); at the beach, in the backyard, at a campsite, on an island, in a cave.

ALWAYS check local fire regulations before starting an open fire outdoors. 

IS IT HEAVY?

We use heavy duty 3/16” plate steel for the three piece set in order to ensure you’ll be cooking with Ember for generations. The whole set including carry case and cutting board comes in at about 16 Lbs.

IS IT EASY TO USE?

We designed Ember Kitchen Cook Kit to be very easy to use. Once you have a fire going, just slip the two Fire cook stand legs together and place it in the fire place close to the heat. When you’re done cooking, remove the components from the coals and let them cool till they are easy to handle with your bare hands. This could be upon to half hour. When you’re ready to pack up, make sure your Cook Stand is cool to the touch before storing it in the carry case.

CAN I LEAVE IT OUTSIDE?

We recomend storing your Ember Kitchen Cook Kit in our carry case between uses. If left out in the elements overnight, the metal can rust between uses. Just as a good cast iron pan would.  But don’t worry - once you you get it back in the fire - the rust will easily scrape away with a wire grill brush.

HOW DO I CLEAN IT?

Just like any good cast iron pan, we recomend scrubbing off any food remnants between uses (once it has had time to cool) and giving the Grill and Cook Stand a light coating of neutral oil to prevent oxidation. Apply oil to a paper towel or rag, and rub it on.

HOW LONG DOES DELIVERY TAKE?
