I thought as much when I saw all the fumes and smoke being given off.

I think I'll be sticking with my gas fired BBQ

As long as you still can get gas cartridges or gas bottles.



For prepping, I recommend to have one burner for every kind of fuel possible. The rocket ovens burn biomass, and this model burns also charcoal and brickets. I have, for doomsday party, a stove for gas cartridges, gasoline, tupintine etc as well.


If it burns, I can safely use it without attracting unwanted attention.



Thats often overlooked - in such scenarios, you do not want to attract attention, but avoid attention getting. Thats why it even kight be better to leave the oven cold and not make any sorts of fire (smell).
