Chuckwagon Stove?
« on: September 13, 2022, 05:58:39 am »
Im in love with this.  it drafts like a champ and is just so well built.  Its all rivited design and its 20lbs and the size of a milkcrate.

It has five flathead rounded bolts in the fire chamber.  The drawer handles seem to even be ornate and carved.   This will be perfect for parties.


BUT

I think its over 100 years old but no clue   any ideas??  Seems blued rather than painted too.   I love this oven.   Please any info let me know.


i hope to restore it to cooking order.  I think the oven with a weak fire held about 300f.

I was thinking of a wash and a rust remover than citric then bluing to restore to cooking order?   I want it food safe.

Thank You.  Im burning wet mesquite wood and it drafts perfect.  This was made to cook on.  Ill share some meals once i know its safe to cook with.

I work and run restaurants.  Each burner here is a diff temp.  There is an oven and a coal tray.

I see lamb roasting sauce cooking bread in foil in the coal tray and rice or coffee on a back burner   a beach day would be great.  Its minimal how much solid coal fuel you need.  its gonna be my chill spot in the backyard all day.

Cheers. [ Guests cannot view attachments ]
