THE inspiration and fascination of wood fire cooking 

-Handcrafted Videos-

About

Howdy,

 

​After a six-year hiatus from making wood fire cooking related videos, I decided to take another crack at making content.  In the fall of 2025, I dove back into making low-quality dad jokes, all while sharing tutorials to help folks gain knowledge within primitive-style cooking.  However, I've noticed the space is now pretty crowded with cooking philosophies and techniques from when I first began posting, which is great!  So anyone should be able to navigate the Internet now to find exactly what you're looking for.  So what's next? 

 

My obsession and fascination for cooking with fire is as intense as ever, but after reflecting the last six months of 2025, I began plotting a new content path.  

​​

You'll see the Quetorials Youtube channel content has changed to be more of a behind the scenes look at what goes on within the Wood Fire Cookery campus. We launched a vlog/show called "Chasing Fire" which gives the viewer a close look at our day to day. 

 

I do still plan on making helpful tutorial videos specifically related to the cooking tools.  That content can be found on their respective channels at Workhorse Pits, El Bandido Grills and Primitive Pits.​

​

I hope you find "Chasing Fire" interesting.​

I greatly appreciate your support!

JD
