I've decided to put together a cooking kit for events; that area seems to be the one I'm always having to make compromises (including hiding modern items under something, which I strongly dislike doing). I'm not trying to acquire a full kitchen, just the items really needed for good cooking on an open fire.I have:
firestryker, flint, char and tow (of course)
forged tripod, chain and hooks
bellied iron pot
dutch oven (although I'm not convinced this is a proper piece)
cutting board (just a plain smooth board)
forged iron ladle and fire shovel I need:
containers for liquids, grease, spices, flour
more pots and a frypan
more utensils, including forged flesh hook
bellows or similar tool
What would you add to the list? Any sources for these needed items you'd share?

Trivets and grilles.A trivet would be more portable than the coat-rack shaped pot suspender system mentioned above. Though that system is far more adjustable than moving the fire closer or farther from your pot on the trivet. The grille can be used to melt cheese on bread, act as another trivet, etc. Perhaps a bucket for water incase the fire spreads. A bucket for slops and kitchen cuttings. Wash tub for dishes. Peruvian towels for drying dishes. Fire fork for turning logs (a modern poker is not seen in the 14-15thc. But you can see fire forks used in the illustrations of the heretics being burnt during the Alberginesian (sp?) crusade as well as the Templar burnings, Lutteral Psalter, burning of the Jews during the Great Dying, etc.) -------------------- Woodcrafter
