Emergency Cooking

Part of emergency preparedness includes planning ahead for how you will prepare meals with items in your food storage. In the event of a prolonged power outage, and disrupted gas lines, it’s a good idea to add a few more items to your preparedness kit. Here are a few suggestions:

• Mechanical can opener
• Bottle opener
• Tin foil for cooking on campfire or grill
• BBQ grill or camp stove and extra fuel (propane, charcoal, wood, etc.)
• Set of old pots and pans to use on grill
• Cast iron skillet
• Dutch oven
• Mortar and pestle, grater or potato masher to make baby food
