The Dakota Fire Hole (How to make one and why I love it)

The Dakota Indians were genius in inventing this technique

In this video Dave from Davidspassage.com demonstrates how to make Dakota Fire Hole as well as going through and talk about the pros and cons of this technique.

Dave also talk about when this technique is handy and when it is not so handy. Finally, he shows you just how effective this technique is by boiling 2 cups of water in just over 5 minutes. .

In terms of cooking, this is a “go-to” fire technique as these fires burn hotter, require less wood for sufficient cooking, are quasi-stealthy, and are quick to extinguish among other things.
