Solar Thanksgiving Grid Free Cooking

[Junior48210]

Totally ecological I loved guys and buy the way where I can buy a mirror like you have thanks !

[bucketrobbert]

try a rocket stove and use old scrap Wood that fall of the trees to cook with :) grate Video like always check the stove out that i made from hold cooking oil cans

[Copperfoilhat]

Seldom do you see a woman with assets up top and bottom. Usually one or the other is flat.

[bannaoner13x]

Denise is FREAKIN' HOT!!! She needs to have her own channel! It would totally "out do" this one. Not that this channel isn't great. ;)

[tonysshadow]

Ive always figured your solar cooking wood be great for slow cooking meats, chili, soups, gumbo etc. All those many thing you can cook in a crock pot. Your turkey pretty much proved my thoughts. All that time your turkey was slow cooking did you just drop it in and forget it? As long as it hovers around 300-350 degrees without having to worry about the lens..thats just about perfect for camping. Just set it up mid-morning...ready for supper early evening.

[Zippy1one]

Denise looks hot!!!!!

[RonAlmeida]

If you like your turkey like that you should always overcook it.

[jmmurdy]

Very cool

[36ironworkers]

watch ironworkers solar project 2011

[TheEndoftheworldguy]

wating pationtly for the world to go to shit and we need old teck like this

[BooGooNFlowoo4Evoo]

could you show how to make biodiesel with the peanut oil? Or would the turkey juice in it just make that too foul (no pun intended!)

[thatbastardson]

might as well have just boiled it in water.

[veganath]

Those planes wouldn't fly over your place if they knew you had death rays...lol

[Zaphod23]

I really wish you guys would wear sunglasses, I think you're too comfortable around the sun.

[BigHeadFarm]

shipping containers - awesome!

[barumman]

You seem to get more than your fair share of sunshine, If I cooked my food with Solar Energy I would starve !!!! :) Best wishes from the UK, Cyril

[luc59457]

What do your neighbours think about solar nuking a Turkey?

[luc59457]

Nice video, good that no forests, city blocks or even cities for that matter were burnt down in the making of this video, that's a lot of mirrors!

[luc59457]

IF everyone would only cook their Turkeys this way (ones who can and only on good conditions) We'd save millions of dollars total every year ! That means millions of more dollars into other things.. Like Parabolic mirrors ;)

[cwes41]

Love your videos and out takes too.... You are a cute couple with fun "Mr. Wizard" type projects.

[dufusrunescape]

why did dan put his hand in hot oil? hmmmm, beautiful women ALWAYS have the ability to ALWAYS turn off a mans "common sense" part of the his brain. mr. "safety first" got distracted by his own wife. this is why i dont like to work with my wife anymore. i don,t care how mature a man is. when the time comes, he will still act like a dumb teenager in the presents of an attractive woman.

[TheKlink]

That looked so fun, like it'd be a great family activity.

[BONJM59]

Had to watch it twice to see what you were doing there then i was able to get my eyes of those breasticles and pay attention to the video.

[FearTurtles]

Outstanding job guys.

[dlock2k]

And she can cook? You're a lucky man, Dan.

[ponyryan]

555555537.7777778 celsius. Thanks for another great video Dan/Denise (especially Denise ;)

[Hiwaytahhell]

WIFE MAKE ME A SAMMICH! ....toasted? YES! Kay... /walks outside.

[XpunchedintheassX14]

mmmm...cancer

[formyfriends01]

good job 

[blahk04]

I'm moving to your house in the event of a zombie apocalypse.

[TheBetterGame]

Congrats Dan, this video was listed in the youtube blog! Unfortunately it was just a text link at the bottom, but hey! Your getting noticed!

[bccooleycompany]

Tracking the sun? Didn't you have to keep moving the mirrors. That would have been good to see.

[garyayers]

Great job, great video. Happy Thanksgiving.

[khaosrulzusa]

Great video guys.Happy Thanksgiving!!!

[c33r0k33]

Absolutely the best video on solar cooking bar none. Five stars!!! Did you offer your mom any dinner?  I started to say Dan looks as though he lifts weights, but hot oil doesn't care how strong you are. ...how about a pivoting arm to swing the food into focus? Wish you a great recovery from doing the solar thanksgiving. Also huge thanks for showing people CAN do full elegant meals with solar power.

[redgreenjr]

Funny! You guys are great! That made my day.

I hope you don't mind, I embedded this on our facebook page ~ /solrwind

Happy Thanksgiving to all!

[alemapretsof]

Uh, I just wanted to know the vendor and style for personal use! I don't need 2 cup sizes, but it appears to "support the girls", which is a problem with larger breasts. Ya'll can do whatever vids you want! rofl

[PuciferSam]

"It was 295 when I stuck my hand in it." ouch (Dan the human cooking thermometer) ... lol

Great video 5 stars and thumb up. Happy Turkey Day!

[mbaharvard]

Wow, Dan, can I come over for Thanksgiving?

This kinda stuff might even take my mind off football ( a rare feat)! :)

[ericstrattendgtmy]

"Why did you do that?"

I love that one!

[alemapretsof]

Hey,1991araaron, what do you mean "OLD" people? These are exactly the type of things I love to do with my grandchildren. (Please know that I am just carrying on.) Some of us old fogey's love Science!!

[joemh123]

do the mirrors have to be sepcial mirros?

[purplemutantas]

@joemh123 For the oven they were using regular household mirrors. First surface mirrors work better, but plain old household mirrors work. They have a video where they burn stuff with regular household mirrors.

[stevenloganmusic]

Great vids by a great couple! Thanks for posting.

[Winnman05]

You guys rock pretty hard, you make science fun!

[CraftFamilyMO]

Happy Thanksgiving!

[tabhorian]

Wait, you guys have shipping containers in your back yard? How cool is that? No zoning? Love it.

[GREENPOWERSCIENCE]

@tabhorian Rural/Agriculture + trees:-) Our neighbor has 42 parted cars.LOL

[fridgeways]

Very cool, not much use in England however! Any ideas for cooking with rain?

[alemapretsof]

@fridgeways , You could always get an easy bake oven, which has similar effects, but you will need to use electricity. (I just KNOW you will appreciate the tongue in cheek humor!)

[fridgeways]

@alemapretsof

Easy bake oven? whats that then light bulb oven?. suppose you could have all the gutters diverting to one downpipe and driving a tiny generator, that way you could power a bulb and at least you could see your uncooked food



[alemapretsof]

@fridgeways Yes, the Easy Bake Oven utilized reflective surfaces and a 100 watt lightbulb. Do they still make those? Anyway, great idea about the generator. This year we had a record amount of rain (since they first began keeping records). Ah, Northeast Ohio and the Lake Effect! ROFL

[eyesonlyfd]

good video! You even made me hungry!

[1991araaron]

Lol love you guys, thanks for doing what you do. This gave me valuable information and this video tells me to keep my focus on building on and enhancing wind and solar. Old people, lazy people and etc.. just wouldnt go through the trouble.

Thought you guys might wanna check out and (or) support this "wind sail receptor" super efficient, ultra quiet, It looks like the real deal and the future of windmills.

Later friends

[opcn18]

Honestly you've made this all look like a giant hassle.

[AngelLestat2]

Nice cook dan and denise, and is fall around there dont you?

Hey dan, please make a video telling about the Pros/Cons and uses of all different kinds of mirrows and lens like parabolic, fresnel or other kind of solar collectors.

[Zadikastube]

is it a truck? is it a plain? its both AND a bird! xD

[madogblue]

Totally cool, please keep the great video's coming!

[kyle170g]

Love how you are measuring the temp and then you get distracted by the passing car :P

[popnstart]

A walk thru your backyard could result in 3rd degree burns.

[theanimalmuppet]

You guys are great. Thanks for all the great vids.

[DiyEcoProjects]

haha ... well done you two. Happy turkey day!. You've got such a playground of stuff there, id love to visit and see all of it. It keep someone busy for a week. Pitty i live in the uk. lov to you two, regards k

[RoboTekno]

SO HOT!!! =D The food looked nice to ;D

[whotoinfinity]

Happy Thanksgiving Team Rojas!

Another year for me when I'm greatful for your work on YouTube.

You two crack me up, and inspire me too. (i'm starting my 1 trillion degree oven even as I type) BTW... my quick calculation would make that 378 billion degrees C.

Peace

Gill

[IrKrash]

That looks delicious! The food looks great also! One day everyone will join in and hold hands one in one then understand. But first we must accept it.

[kallkrish]

Dream Wife!!! 

[firerescue712]

Thank you for hearing your ideas and knowledge with the world. I have learned a lot! It is great to see someone that thinks outside the box. Loved the vidoe on using the black drain pipe for heating. I tried it....TERRIFIC.

[galegregory97comcast]

WHEN YOU COOK OUT YOU GO ALL THE WAY LOL

[ToadsWarts]

I think it is so nice Denise was so concerned about you burning your "Thing"

[47f0]

Looks inspiring. I usually smoke my turkeys, but it's getting hard to find rolling papers that big.

[electrodacus]

Dan I think cast iron non enamel one will work best for boiling since it will not reflect the heat as aluminium or stainless steel.

[DavidRojoCancun]

Hey Dan! You may want to invest in a directional microphone :D You may be happy with the results, not being disturbed by surrounding noises.

Can you share the turkey's recipe? :D Greetings from Cancún, México

[JEFF9K]

My choice, grid-free!

[carr869]

Happy Thanksgiving. I guess I'll go and eat my tofu taco now. It looked like you guys had fun making the dinner and video. Thanks for sharing a day in your life with us.

[confiscator]

I'm sure I'm not the first to think of this, but would there be a way to use electrochromic glass as a kind of dimmer switch to regulate the temperature of the beam? I could see it maybe blocking too much UV right at the start. Maybe it'd have to be a custom thing. Maybe it already exists? Anyone?

[confiscator]

Plastic cups? I mean, there's the green issue, but more importantly...plastic cups on Thanksgiving??

[earthicastar]

u guys are adorable

[lostburro]

The Julia Child and Graham Kerr of Solar Cooking!

(I do miss Denise's leopard print bikini though!)

[pumpbreaks]

i really enjoyed that video thanks for making it :D

[yadayadayyada2006]

Very entertaining video. You two are nuts, and sweet.

[PoirierMike]

Awesome!

[TheVampirella]

Happy Thanksgiving @GreenPowerScience! Loved the video.

After reading some of the other comments I figured a bisexual should speak up and say that you both have nice bodies ;)

[tectalabyss]

Loved the Video... And the Bloopers... : ) Thanks for sharing...Added to My Favorites & Playlists....Tec

[crashjdh]

Denise is hott.

[MrEroshan]

you two are the best.

[TrueGreatness73]

your wife has a very nice body. :)

[TheRbearden]

You need to get a smaller kitchen. Can you pipe all of that solar energy into your house w a big optic fiber? Put a sun tracker on your death ray dishes and concentrate them all to one optic fiber.

[Response166]

Lovley video.

[FenderGibsonWashburn]

I bet your neighbors are well entertained. "Honey come look the're out playing with their mirrors again." LOL You two look like you have so much fun together.

[kymopar]

thanks for sharing!..how much for the dune buggy?

[gilbet]

Awesome video! You two are so great at coming up with ideas and making them happen!

[iamsnake21]

i allways enjoy your video,s keep them comming, i bet dinner was great,have a blessed day!!!!!!

[zebnat]

what if a cloud stops the sun light? your food would be fucked :(

[TheLonelyImmortal]

This music is bizarre!

So many people comment that Denice is physically attractive, well Dan has big muscles! It's just one attractive couple :)

[Nicnak7]

You guys are adorable //.^

[oyabun2k1]

Great idea I loved it all. Just a thought tho try using a cast iron dutch oven for your biscuits. Not as much room to heat up. :)

[Lihaschu]

"double kill" xD

[mrhulot101]

I worry about you guys always experimenting with those mirrors and lenses you will end up hurting your eyes, glad to see you wearing some protection.

[charlie31mikee]

wow your great dan i seen you in here in tokyo good job dan,, your great......

[MOBJOTSZ15]

VERY CREATIVE, IT GOT ME HUNGRY, AND NICELY DONE 5/5 AD THUMBS UP

[social3ngin33rin]

I didn't know the Rojas clan has thanksgiving early :O~~~~~

[social3ngin33rin]

one of the few instances where people would need welding equipment to cook, damn why do you guys post this. Making me very hungry!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[aeroscope]

Dude I want her to do the bikini cooking again!!

[thestonemaster81]

You could make alot of money offering a calander of Denise. Yes she is beautiful. But you have a video about solar cooking and 90% of the comments are about Denise.. Take 12 hot Classy photos put it in a calander. Buy a solar geothermal house paid for. The New year is coming real fast. Denise is not getting any younger. she could freeze her beauty in time.

[markallen200]

You two are Hi-larious!! Love the Bloopers. You guys look rather ragged after the cook-a-thon but it looks like the concept is really achievable. I bet you will be better prepared next time and that will make all the difference. Did you preheat the oven with the biscuits???

[GREENPOWERSCIENCE]

@markallen200 Thank you for the nice comment. We did the biscuits backwards:-) They were good but did not get as fluffy as an normal preheated oven.

[metalfist616]

just awesome! have good meal :)

next year you do somethig vegetarian :P

[marthale7]

I love the screen idea you have to put the pot on great idea.

[floydster100]

I love the way you live.

[stopcraponutube]

Has Denise had a boob job? don't remember them being THAT big!

[GREENPOWERSCIENCE]

@stopcraponutube All natural + a new boosting workout bra. BTW, she approved this message:-)

[alemapretsof]

@GREENPOWERSCIENCE Hey, would your wife please share the brand and model name of the boosting workout bra that you referenced? That would be very helpful!! Thanks~

[GREENPOWERSCIENCE]

@alemapretsof Victoria's Secret "Miraculous" 2-cup size boost bra. Thumbs up if she should do a video on it:-)LOL

[TheBetterGame]

@GREENPOWERSCIENCE RE: The bra video. Honestly, your wife should consider doing a channel of her own. She's an amazing woman. I'm sure she could crush your subscriber count in no time :)

[robot797]

what did you neughbors think when you did this?

[welshray1]

Did you Have alcohol b4 filming this ? i think you did .....

[sanantoniospurs9]

its so hard to concentrate on the green science when you put your wife in the vids. no disrespect buts it like trying to learn from that smoking hot teacher in school. She's way better looking than most my friends in their mid twenties. If i could grow up again i wanna be like you Dan

[eyebinker]

Seeing this makes me think I should try making solar powered beer.

[onmyown12]

Dan, how could you find such woman willing to do such things? I guess most of them prefer a luxury kitchen...

[vention4wh]

@onmyown12

And that's if they even know how to cook.

[onmyown12]

You're doing a great example of how we can survive even without burning wood or fossil fuels.

[spam1712]

Holy shit boobs

[jerseystitch]

"Careful you don't burn your thing".

hehehe

Denise is a total knockout.

[599891]

Denise, it's time you got back in to modeling, you look great.

[MarshallrN]

Great video! Loving the off grid cooking! Wish I could afford some sweet lens or mirrors like this. Did you grow the potatoes too??? For a ultimate sun creation!

[hyperkid86]

A hint of cleavage

A dash of hot ass

and 2 cups of double D's

[muddymuddymuddmann]

GREAT VIDEO DAN,

MY WIFE AND I HAD A BALL WATCHING AND LISTENING TO YA'LL. AND THE FOOD MADE US VERY HUNGY.

NICE COOKING DENICE.

MUDDy AND MELISSA

[hawaiiislandlife]

I've almost got my solar cooker finished. Sadly, there wasn't any sun today in Hawai'i of all places. Great show.

[Imakeplanesboom]

You know how to be even MORE green? Don't eat meat!

[ramsessilent]

oh looks soooooo good now i'm hungry lol .. beautiful pit bull my the way . and dan tell your mob her hair was not that bad :OP.

p.s. going to have to try the peanut oil i have always used olive or walnut oil.

[IllumTheMessage]

Happy Thanksgiving! Luv u guys.

[RCvolunteer1978]

you are a very lucky person to have a loved one to work along side of you

[shartne]

Looks very fun and cool now Im hungry ! There is a time coming where this may be one of the only ways to cook.

[700]

Happy Thanksgiving! Next year, new challenge, bar up - try to cook something in the evening (on methane, collected wind or solar energy...)

[norxcontacts]

I know this is off topic, but your wife is gorgeous.

[joshcryer]

Haha, this video had everything, such a wonderful couple. :)

[88roro11]

hahaha i m glad you did this happy thanksgiving.. tis kinda proves we don't need to be Dependant on dirty energies to be happy BRAVO

[cloudsifter11]

Frennel Frennel Frennel it's FRESNEL.....  :P

[Robonza]

@cloudsifter11 Sorry, you are dead wrong. the "s" in fresnel is silent. Look it up. I have been working in the optics field for 10 years now.

[Pegasusthebeyblade]

I love your videos I want to watch everyone!

[stuzapusa]

3 Wagners too. The littlest one is great for 1 egg. Tore apart an old Zenith Large Screen TV and Kept the frame and mirror thin material. Should work great for a stove. I should have kept the lense too... Good Work....

[101AOK]

$3K in parts?....maybe not. NIce show regardless. Just NOT sold on the idea and I live in desert area So Cal.

[stuzapusa]

All Skillet. A Kitchens Best Friend. I've got the same lodge skillet. Great.!

[cdltpx]

Dan you still have that huge oven you built from freezer doors? I was thinking of taking that and cooking a sack of taters and bread each day you can and selling the taters $1 each call them solar baked taters. You can sell them to passing motorists that are wanting to eat a baked tater? You could have an outdoor tater store? Something tells me the health department would have a cow doing things this way but hey You get a HL group to scrub the taters then sell them.

[HARMANHOUSE1]

That bird has got some serious breasts and so does the turkey!!

[ZoneTelevision]

God Bless You both Dan and Denise Happy Thanksgiving and Merry Christmas !!!!!

[MARTIALLAWLESS]

you guys rock....have happy holidays this year!

[AnimalCrossingCool4]

The only problem I see is when it starts getting cloudy...

[cdltpx]

Kind of quiet today not jets or motorcycle gangs? I just ate a tater I baked in the MWO use a new green scrub pad scour the exterior of your tater get a fork poke it all around toss in the MWO 7 min or so then wrap with foil after taken out of MWO. Add cheese butter bacon bits sourcream broccoli and you got a yummy meal. If you want you can add chicken strips etc if you scrub well enough you can eat the skin taste great.

[cgillyard]

Cool video!

[mdgnys]

This was funny and enjoyable! The music was fun too!

[GREENPOWERSCIENCE]

@mdgnys Thank you for the nice comment.
