8.26.10 Solar Bratwurst

Today my dad gave me a stainless steel mess kit. He painted it black on both sides and then we put a little water in it with some brats, closed the lid(not locked) and within two minutes we could hear bubbling and within five we had the lid popping up and shooting steam out of the side. We let them cook for another couple of minutes just to be safe and then had boiling hot bratwurst for lunch.
