The following site is geared toward the making of charcoal for use in blacksmithing, but from a self-sufficiency standpoint it caught my attention as a useful idea for creating a renewable fuel with which to cook. Purchase or build yourself a nice grill and this small-scale (one metal drum) process could keep you barbecuing from now till kingdom come. Enjoy!

All comments on this blog are moderated, meaning they don't appear until approved by me. So, when your comment doesn't appear immediately, *DO NOT* throw a hissy-fit and assume I'm refusing negative comments (yes, it really happened). I approve pretty much everything that isn't obvious SPAM, negative or not, and I promise you that will include your hissy-fit comments, accusing me of a grand conspiracy to squash dissenting ideas (also really happened). The result, of course, being that you will look like a fool, and the rest of us will laugh heartily at your stupidity.
