My first off-the grid meal!

My fiance made the coolest little stoves! They're called Penny Coke Can stoves. They run off of grain alcohol (everclear) and are super portable (we love camping, so it is important that we are willing and able to use alternative methods once in a while!)

So, my meal was a very humble can of chili beans. I almost forgot to take the paper off my chili can. Good thing I did, or it would have caught fire! Anyway, I opened the top of my can all the way except for a little bit to make a flap for venting and stirring. I only stirred it twice. By the time I had run out of alcohol (now I'm wishing I would have timed it) the beans were the perfect temperature.
