So big fat fresh new York strip = primitive?

Up at 3 in the morning... watching someone cook meat on a rock. This year looking bright already.

Wish I could smell this through the computer screen. Probably smelled like freedom and childhood combined.

kind of old comment but do you smell what the rock is cookin?

I was about to go to bed. Now time to watch this guy cook on a rock and all his other videos too

There is no better trip to take with a bunch of guys then to camp out in the middle of nowhere and make everything from scratch. Last year when I graduated high school me and 7 other friends drove 3 hours north of where I live to a really nice area next to a state park where there was a really nice river bend and we spent the week in a handmade camp. Best trip I ever went on. We caught and ate fish and one of my friends was an absolute expert in cooking rabbit and he caught 5 and they were fucking amazing. We literally planned out everything we were gonna do from just watching videos from people like Primitive Technology and stuff. It was fucking fun as hell. Please people you need to try it.

I've actually done this before. But it was kind of by accident. A few buddies and I went camping. We made a fire by the river. We found a very large rock that jutted out from the ground, and made a fire next to it. The fire got so hot that one side of the rock split and fell onto our fire, but still giving us plenty of room to add more wood. The hot slab of stone left a clean surface from the inside of the rock, so we didn't need to clean the rock. We cooked our steak on the rock and it was pretty awesome. While we were cooking the steak a curious beaver kept watching us, so we threw it some of the steak, and it seemed to enjoy it. (Beavers are scavengers and eat fish and other meat - just in case anyone wondered.) Anyhow, that's my story. :)

Primitive video quality too!

The man said "This is how I like my steak." If you like it differently do it different. The purpose of this video was to show the technique of cooking the meat. It's great information! Thank you!!

THIS is how you cook outdoors! 10/10!

not gonna lie this is awesome and made me hungry af

This is the way of life i m dreaming of.

"It's f****** raw!!" - Gordon Ramsey

Why the hate? Just a few guys enjoying the wilderness and eating nice food.I hate the internet sometimes.

Great outdoor cooking Mitch! Campfire with two stove plates, amazing ; ) Best to you, Sepp

This is what life is about....good food, good friends, good talks, good adventures

I've been seeing this video for years now and it always makes me hungry

Gordon ramsay: ITS FUCKING RAAAW!

Lol right when he blew the ash I was like damn on the other guys burgers and then his buddy said it lol

Its funny how everyone in the comments is instantly Gordon Ramsay.

salt is not just used for flavor, if you salt the meat first, it will help kill some surface bacteria, but more importantly it will pull moisture from the meat, and form a pellicle, which will tend to let more smoke adhere, which also helps to cure the meat. and tastes good too.

Mitch, that steak was done when you first pulled it off. Medium rare baby... the only way to eat meat!

It was done when he first took it off. Like if you agree

this is really satisfying to watch

Very nice job on video. The best thing is the fellowship and just getting away from the world. Thanks guys! Blessings

3.27 to 4.32 !! I see a face in the fire !! Ghengis Khan Spotted !!

That's the way to camp! A real meat feast

Loved the custom rock cooking. The fire building was amazing. Thanks for the knowledge.

Thanks man, I liked that, really great to see people doing things diferently

that steak was done dude! no need for a second time on the rock!!!! ahah

Man... You got my mouth watering....

I visited Angola in Africa for work. And had the best steak of my life cooked on a rock. They brought a raw steak assortment of seasonings and a rock on a wet piece of wood. It was awesome. This was at a very nice restaurant.

A buddy showed me a trick with stone grills. He's native and his grandpa taught him that they would set the edges of the stone up on large bits of wood. The ground absorbs the heat and the stone will get hotter if you rest it on wood. Then in the gap that is open underneath set small kindling-sized wood but don't light it directly, let the main fire catch on the kindling and burn toward the other end of the stone. Periodically add more small twigs and kindling to the cold side and shove them toward the fire with a poker leaving a little air. This is for cooler cooking like barbaque and find for thin cuts of meat. For thick meat like steak that you want to sear or something you need a very hot fire for you need to surround the stone on three sides. And for those fires he said use your poker to shove hot coals from the fire side to the cold side under the stone. Also the key is to do this slowly so the stone heats slow. Otherwise it will break or chip off.

This looks like the best time.

Luckily I just had supper before watching this.

There's something especially satisfying about eating meat you've cooked with an open fire in the woods

It looks so delicious. Geez. I'm 23 days into a yearlong Wolverine Challenge (Plain Fish, Yogurt, Water), and this stone-cooked steak makes my mouth water.

YEAH!! you will survive using your water for cleaning a rock! Genius

1:54 "I like to blow off the ash if I can." "Yeah right onto my burgers"

You guys are all out there camping, and not one of you are having a cold beer!!! Beer is a MUST HAVE on trips like that!!

when you blew the ash off of your rock i thought, "yep right onto the burgers" then your mate said exactly that! lol.. Interesting way to cook

Nearly 2am and I have to be up at 6 but for some reason I'm watching some caveman cook a steak on a rock, fml 😂

Seriously cool. I hunt and camp whenever I can--I'm in New Brunswick, it's what we do, haha I keep an eye out for survival tips being in the woods a fair amount. You've got my respect; thanks for the tips.

this is so relaxing to watch lmao

Looks really good. Nothing like hanging out in the wild and cooking delicious meats.

did anyone else get ASMR triggers from this video?

You should categorise the rocks for viewers, never use rocks from a river bed or rocks that hold moisture as it will explode when it reaches a certain temp. Campers should be aware before attempting to convert rocks into a frying pan, you might end up losing an eye!

Steaks, Baked Potatoes, English Muffin Cheeseburgers, Even do fish like that. Simple yet creative, and I would not have thought of this until now to tell you the truth.

I cant wait till summer to go camping and do this! looks delicious

haha omg people talking about how "clean" he cooks bro it says Primitive that happens and you will survive it like we did it thousands of years ago..thank you for this video!

YOU OVER COOKED THE DAME STEAK!

If you ever get a chance and find a slab of Himalayan pink salt replace the rock with it then try this out. You'll love it.

I saw the same method in the Boy Scout handbook when I was a kid and I also wondered why not put the rock vertical over the fire. But this informative video shows how well it works and, well, millions of Boy Scout handbooks can't be wrong. Bravo, gentlemen.

3:43 its a face in the fire

Awesome video but one tip I found the hard way is not to use a rock that’s been in a river or submerged in water it will explode

so simple and at the same time useful way to cook!

Wow, I didn't know you could cook so much with so little while camping. This wasn't just survival cooking, this was cooking for flavor and looks yummy.

Didn't like how you handled the meat, but I love the rock idea. I'll have to remember that :)

Havent watched a single one of your videos but came here because of Joe Robinet talking about you. Instant subscribed

That steak looked awesome! Looked good to go when you sliced it to me!

I love videos like this👌

It's so primitive that it's not even HD :P

3:27 CREEPY FACE IN FIRE STARING STRAIGHT AT YOU !!!

You guys had a blast!!! Good fun man plus good friends! Thanks.

I need to try this as soon as possible. Looks like really good fun. Thanks for the video buddy.

Do you smell what the rock is cooking?

I would have eaten the steak as it was at the time you cut it. Looks about medium, maybe medium rare... which is how i like it. With hot red meat in the middle but I assume you cooked it longer to ensure you wouldn't get sick since you're camping- out in the woods. Thumbs up!

Cool vid. Helpful Pro Tip: always let a steak sit for at least 5 mins before you cut into it. All the juices will run right out when you cut into it immediately after pulling it out.

My stomach growled 5 times while watching this video

im too bored so i watched this

8 years ago 😭 I remember watching this when it came out and saying to myself I'd leave this stinkhole London and get back to where I belong...

you sir just gave me a steak idea, cooking on flatrock GENIUS, I'm gonna try my steak like that except I'm gonna rub salt on the flatrock that way the steak cooks while seasoning at the same time

Need some weed and cold beer to go with those steaks. Good video. Thanks for sharing these skills.

3:51 creepy face in the fire

Nice Video, u make me hungry

Well done ( watching from Brazil )

Luxury survival Technics in the wild. Thanks for showing

Goran Ramsey ITS FUCKING RAW

These guys are eatin' better than my and I'm in my own house.

Nice. Quality time spent.

Looks like a good time.

"and once you've overcooked the sh*t out of your survival steak, cut it up into small pieces and cook it into jerky"

anyone else see the face in the fire @ 3:30? lmao

that is a beautiful fire--relaxing just to look at it.

Cool I never knew you could cook food from a rock next time I go hunting or camping I'll try it

People saying it's overcooked, well I don't think you can cook any better than them on a rock.

that steak was done when you sliced it up buddy

Scott and Kenny your gonna put somebodies eye out with that thing. Gees you can't turn your back on those boys for a minute. Informative video. thx

Oh man this made me hungry. this looks great.

theres a reason people only lived til like 26 back then

IT'S RAWWWWWW

I like the meat, it's well done. I don't know why people are being haters just on this video but, I really liked it. You didn't waste my time at all, thanks :D!

Awesome bro👍🏻👍🏻 looks good

this is why we would never,lose a race war.

Hey if you look close in the fire you can see a baby face in the center of the logs @ 4:19

The best heat efficient Stones to get are Volcanic Stone's we find these in our rivers in Aotearoa (New Zealand ) our country sits on a fault line with Volcanoes scattered across the Central and Northern part of Te-Ika--A-Maui ( The North Island ) my Tupuna (Ancestors) would gather these stones for cooking Purposes only they would use native wood Manuka, Kanuka these types of wood burn slower to retain the heat for the stones which are place through and beneath the the wood it is then set alight the fire will burn for at least 2 to 3 hours what's left are white hot rocks with intense heat they are then separated from the ashes and placed in a Hangi Pit (Earth oven) about 2 feet or more deep meat- pork, beef, mutton Chicken are place in a basket and then with the help of others is positioned carefully onto the stones, on top of the basket of meat is placed another basket containing potatoes, pumpkin, kumara, stuffing and steam puddings YUM then a damp wet large sheets are used to cover the entire pit, then large potatoe sacks are placed on top making sure no heat escapes dirt is then used to cover the top of the potatoe sacks and stamped down so steam doesn't escapes, this is left to cook for 2 to 3 hours once cooked dirt, sheets are carefully removed baskets taken out and taken to the whare Kai (dining hall) to be prepared for the Manu-hiri (guests, visitors ) then a Karakia is spoken (prayer ) the guest and host sit and enjoy a hot steamed Hangi Ka pai A Hangi can feed to 100 to 300 plus

Very good video! I would have placed the rock on the coals and cooked , but man this was great !!!

I like to blow away the ash if I can.....yeah right onto my burgers! 😂😂😂😂😂

got super high and watcked this lol

This is one of the BEST survival cookout videos I've seen on KZfaq in 3 years. Good job. I subbed.
