Juice Carton for Hot Dogs
 



Purpose

To cook food that does not require much cooking, with not much extra to carry, and very little waste remaining at the end.


Description

This is a juice or milk carton - preferably 2 litre, filled with newspaper, and lit.


Materials

A two litre juice or milk carton
Newspaper
Aluminium foil

Method


The food, for example two hot dogs, are wrapped in aluminium foil.

Remove any plastic opener from the carton. Stuff some scrunched-up newspaper is into the bottom of the carton. Now put the wrapped food into the carton, and put more scrunched-up newspaper around it. Do not stuff too much paper in the carton, as this will stop it from burning properly.


Use

Just light the newspaper and wait for the newspaper and carton to have burnt away. The hot dog will be just right.
