Deep in the Kalahari, the San people — known as the Bushmen — mastered a way of life centred around fire, warmth and survival. They carried their fire with them wherever they travelled.
This ancient knowledge inspired a modern marvel:
🔥 The Bushman Fire Potjie Cooker — a rugged, reliable, economical cooking system designed for the wild, the backyard, and everywhere in between.
🔥 A Cooker Built on Tradition & Toughness
Crafted from durable mild steel and lined with volcanic rock, the Bushman Fire isn’t your average outdoor cooking unit.
The volcanic-rock insulation traps heat like a natural oven, delivering stable cooking power for hours — without needing constant replenishment.
This clever design means:
✅ Up to 4–6 hours of cooking using just 500g of charcoal briquettes
✅ Complete heat insulation
✅ Lower fuel consumption (saving time and money)
It's a smarter, fuss-free way to cook outdoors.
