Product testing – Woodlore style

When a new bit of kit comes in, who’s to let a light dusting of snow get in the way of trying it out? Ray Mears, Dan Hume and the team headed out mid-blizzard today, to try the new Folding Griddle for a spot of lunch:

About

Woodlore, School of Wilderness Buchcraft was founded in 1983, by the British Bushcraft and survival expert Ray Mears. Woodlore began as a relatively unknown company, offering a small selection of courses on bushcraft techniques. With Ray's ambition and perserverance, Woodlore has since grown into a world-renowned and highly respected school, offering in-depth courses on a wide range of bushcraft and survival subjects. In addition to training, Woodlore now also provides some of the finest outdoors equipment from around the world, carefully selected on the basis of our extensive experience.

    Me neither Bob, if your comment is in relation to the top photo, then i think you might be looking at tomatoes.
    I’m sure apricots would go with bacon though.

    The first bacon butty certainly did pass the bacon butty test. And so did the second one!

    No expensive lab, just the outdoors. The best place to test!

    Well done Dan… I think it looks very similar to the griddle that Caesar used to cook on when we were in Namibia, all but a little smaller…

    That looks like a simple yet awesome piece of kit. It reminds me of the one you got made for you by a back street metal shop in Africa one series.

    It’s was my birthday today so I’ll have to add it to my wish list for next year.
