What you'll need:

• ½ to 1 gallon of kindling and tinder wood
• 6 cut wood logs
• 1 lighter

1. Place two logs running parallel with each other about a foot apart from one another in a fire-safe place.
2. Next, Stack two logs lying crosswise over the two logs about a foot apart. Like building a log house.
3. Place all of the kindling in the center between the logs and light it using a flint starter or a lighter.
4. Once it’s lit place a few small pieces onto the small fire to get it going.
5. Immediately place 2 more logs a foot apart from each other crosswise on the other logs to protect the young fire from going out, especially if it’s windy.
6. Add 1 log at a time to keep it going as long as you’d like.

Chef Notes:

Make-Ahead: Making a fire takes about 10-15 minutes from making kindling wood to getting it started and keeping it so give yourself enough time if you plan on cooking it.

This fire using 6 total logs will last approximately 45 minutes.

Be sure to feed the fire with 1 fresh log 1 at a time for as long as you would like to keep it going.

When making kindling make sure the wood is on a flat stable surface and is standing up vertically.

Put out your fire by smothering it in the sand.

While fire needs air to breathe and grow, it also needs protection from the wind so that it does not go out which is why you will place on the 2 logs at the end.
