"NOLS" Fry-Bake Pan

[Salmon_Run]

I know it's too heavy for backpack trips but wonder of anyone uses the fry-bank pan ?

Any thoughts appreciated before I throw down 100.00....

If weights not an issue, I would go with a cast iron dutch oven. Been around for a long long time and still very versatile. Even a Lodge is less then $100.

 

I'm not sure of your intended purpose, but something like this can be used to bake in:

The lid secures inside and if you put it on it's side and add a small ss sheet to fit inside it acts like a mini oven.

That right there is pretty darn cool !!

It would be for canoe tripping so weight isn't a game stopper, but not looking to carry cast iron around as I do portages also. Looking for cookware for more "home made" meals and some light baking on 0 days at a camp site.

Thanks for the info as it's greatly appreciated..

That billy pot should work fine. You can get a small bread pan that can fit inside as well, that or the sheet of SS would be ideal. You just have to remember to cook over hot coals and not flame, and check it often- corn bread burns fast with this method of baking. If you choose not to add the small pan just fold up some heavy duty foil to make the pan and your all set.
