hay box

[gamekeeper752]

many years ago used to use one alot for stews to have after a shoot or working in the woods
now thinking of making a new one for the samr but to save some money and also to see about cooking rice and pasta dishes in a grid out situation
I wonder if anyone else has done this

I have one although the hay has been replaced with polystyrene . It's a basta box used by food retailers and I lined it with more polystyrene cut around a casserole dish. It works but to be honest we don't tend to use it that much as my wife tends to find it a bit of a faff and it takes up a fair bit of room.
