The Heart of Our Off-Grid Kitchen | Campfire Cooking on Our Australian Homestead

Nearly every home has a kitchen — ours just happens to run on firewood. 🔥 In this video, we’re sharing the heart of our Australian homestead and a big part of our slow living, off-grid lifestyle — our outdoor fire pit. We’ll take you through the full build, how we’ve set it up for campfire cooking and wood fire cooking, and show you how to make a good fire that starts every time using our favourite and best firestarter — dried eucalyptus leaves. You’ll see the practical side of outdoor cooking and fire pit cooking on an off-grid kitchen, the challenges that come with fire bans and weather, and the ways we adapt when living simply on the land. We’ll also share how open-fire cooking makes sense for us on the homestead, with plenty of fallen eucalyptus hardwood on the property and plans for selective logging next year as part of our broader land and fire management approach. It’s all part of homesteading Australia and the rhythm of our life here at Wayback Estate — practical skills, resourcefulness, and connection to the land. 🪵 In this episode: • Building a fire pit for off-grid cooking • Campfire cooking techniques and safety tips • How to make a good fire (that starts every time) • Best firestarter for off-grid living — dried eucalyptus leaves • Cooking on cast iron and swing plates • Adapting to weather, rain, and fire bans • Simple, practical outdoor cooking setup for homesteaders This video contains music from Shutterstock, licensed by the Splice video editing app.
