Hot cans

Thu Nov 22, 2007 2:46 pm

with the weather turning colder i'm just wondering did any one try these hot cans (http://www.hotcan.com). i've tried to get them in Ireland but it's trade only :x .wouldn't mind having a couple in the tackle box on a frosty night!!

There was some mention of them here but it's an example of one of our less informative discussions ;)

We have these on the Lifeboat in Courtmac.

Theyre lovely and all that but a word of warning - 15 pints and 10 vindaloos couldn't replicate the carnage that they cause within 15 minutes of being eaten! Eat in a WELL ventilated area

They were upstairs in Union Chandlery. That was a while back no sure if they are still there.

Some of the angling shops have them, especially if they stock Carp or Pike gear. The Hot cans were originally developed for these guys as they would be a full day on the bank in very cold conditions... Personally I just bring the stove and cook something up.... Anything thing that has a shelf live of 2 years and heats itself up, must have one or two chemicals in there :shock:

Get yourself one of these http://www.base-camp.co.uk/Optimus/Novaplus.htm The Dog whotits of stoves. Get the plus version, but what ever you do... buy from the states. With the Dollor down the toilet at the moment, you are looting at about €105 after postage.

i thinking of getting back into "engine cooking" where you wrap your sausages in tin foil and then clip it with wire beside the exhaust manifold in car or boat. The trick for this one is to get the RPM and cooking time just right, but possible with practice
