I have had 2 tries at cooking jacket potatoes in my woodburning stove. First time I left them in too long, which would have been OK in the oven but resulted in lumps of charcoal in the stove!
Second go I had them starting to go black on one side and not properly cooked the other.
I don't intend to have another go unless there is a power cut when I will make sure the potatoes go in the middle of the hot ashes/burning wood.
Yesterday I put a small pan of water on top of the stove. It took a while but it did boil. That means I can make soup, etc, if needed.
There are lots of adverts for woodburning stoves in magazines such as Country Living, but none for accessories. Aren't there enough of us? I was wanting a trivet for the top of the stove, though it seems I don't need one, so the lack has saved me money!
