We just bought a cobb cooker the other week. Cooked a chook in it over the week-end. It would have to have been one of the tastiest we've ever had. My mouth is still watering! Must remember to buy the more expensive kind of heat beads not the cheapies that we had. Took longer to
cook than we expected because of the low grade beads. Worth the wait though!

I use some dry wood to make coals and
cook roasts, cakes, damperand much more in my
camp oven. Coals below and on top. No chemicals, additives or any of the many nasties to be avoided in heat beads. Don't remember how much the oven cost but it wasn't very much. Oh and Liz - the chook was tasty because of the quality of the chook not the heat source LOL. I'm a real four wheel driver - no gimmicky gadgets - just me and a campfire and my oven and beautifully cooked food.

I've been cooking with a
camp oven for many years, there's no better way to
cook a duck (and a lot of other stuff) that's for sure! What interests me about the Cobb is that you can do oven style cooking without a fire, or even inside a tent in the rain! Although I bet they'd produce a fair bit of carbon monoxide or something, so you'd want to keep the ventilation up.
Cheers
