Volcano Cook Stove with Handy Handle, Wind Guard, Dutch Oven and Handy Ring Accessories.

Volcano Senior (with grill), accommodates 8, 10, 12, 14, and 16 inch Dutch Ovens. You can safely stack up to 8 ovens. Volcano Junior is discontinued.

Volcano Sr. on table--heat forced up, not to sides or bottom, cool surface; stable tripod base; and low center of gravity for stability.

The Volcano Stove is the most efficient outdoor stove we've ever tested. Its double-wall construction keeps it cool to the touch (even the bottom) and chimney effect channels heat directly to the food instead of the surrounding air. This results in a stove that can cook twice a day for an entire year using only 15 twenty lb. bags of charcoal (300 lbs), a feat impossible for most other cookers. (One 25 lb. bag of charcoal can provide 2 meals a day for 10 people during prolonged power outages caused by hurricanes, tornadoes, blizzards, earthquakes, floods or other emergencies and disasters.) Made from 20 gauge steel with magnesium powder coating to prevent rust, scuffs & scratches, it comes with a 1 year warranty. Minimal heat loss allows use on table tops (even with a tablecloth), boat decks, and wooden surfaces. The exterior of the stove portion will never feel hot to the touch.  Low center of gravity provides outstanding stability against tip-over. Efficiency is maintained by the chimney effect engineering, directing the heat toward the food tower. Accommodates pans, skillets, griddles, woks, grills & best of all Dutch Ovens! Stacking Dutch Ovens allows you to cook for large crowds with minimal fuel usage. Pellets, wood and charcoal are the recommended fuels. The manufacturer recommends Kingsford Charcoal for best results. You get it all with the Volcano!
