You've answered your own question with the UL bit. It isn't about the weight of the stove, it's about extending fuel canisters. If through hiking long distance that will allow you to resupply less or carry fewer/smaller canisters. If doing weekend hikes it's unneeded since you aren't days from re-supply or have the time to make a fire but if you're actually serious about doing several high mileage days in a row that could easily save a couple meals worth of fuel.

The all time absolute best meal i've ever had while /out/ is when I was 12 going on a 3 day long canoeing trip with my father. We had not caught shit for the first day so we just ate bread, hot dogs, and drank some Sprite. On the second day we had a drought in a bounty of fish but didn't pack anything to cook in so we cut up the fish and cooked in butter inside the cut open sprite cans over a fire by the river as the sun set. Nothing has beat it since.

I used to wander around an old bog and eat the cranberries that ripened in the fall. I love that kind of biome. The Tamaracks, wintergreen...

And wtf? Once again anime posters are bringing some good shit to the board. Froggies need to catch the fuck up.

Not also about saving fuel, biggest thing is saving time. Not having to stop for X amount of time to cook it make food, then spend X of time eating it. Just plop your pack down and dig in and then get back to it.

We made a 'grill' with fresh hazelnut branches (wet it a bit), put trout on it, spiced with fresh herbs (thyme, wormwood), put all this over fireplace and covered with a lid, after a few minutes turned it around for a few more minutes. Best fish i've ever had.

Eating a tin of stew cooked in the tin on Scafell Pike. Around 8pm after doing about 25 miles. Group of five or six tents everybody dropping from hunger. Anything is goat-tier in that state. Still remmber it years later.

I have mixed memories of Scafell, smashed myself up there on the bad step last year, still limped to the summit but descent was not fun.

Had to quit hiking and running for a few months whilst knee healed and still have 2 scars from the cuts on my face today, could've been a whole lot worse though looking back on it.

Some gorgeous scenery up there though and even had some RAF Hawks doing low flybys.

Didn't get any nice pictures of the Hawks sadly as had a little too low warning.

Most satisfying meal I ever had and I remember it tasting so good too. I need to have that experience again.

few years back, camping with my pops.
we brought some steak and cut it into strips and roasted over a campfire. This was after he hurt his arm while clearing some logs away from our camp site.

the trip is mostly memorable because it's
a) the last time we went camping
b) he actually completely tore his bicep but refused to say anything so the trip wouldn't be spoiled -- and so he spent the rest of the trip in agony.

tough SOB.

Dry cure a pork belly at home, slice your bacon off of it as you go, it should keep for at least a week in your pack.

My Japanese buddy flew out to my province back in 2019, so I took him out camping in the mountains. It was raining for like 2 days straight prior, and off and on spitting rain all day so trying to get a fire started was a major pain, but once it was going I cooked some special marinated Elk steaks on a cast iron skillet. Not only was it the best meal I had while /out/ I think it was one of the best meals I've made period
