Ever go camping with a hankering for a strong, freshly brewed cup of coffee? The folks at Stumptown, the renowned coffee roasters with the location in Seattle, New York and Portland, and Poler, the outdoor gear people, have made it easy with the Stumptown x Poler Camp Coffee Brew Kit. All you have to do is be lucky enough to get your hands on one of these babies and you’ll be all set to brew a cup of coffee. In the kit you’ll find two enamel custom mugs, a custom nylon travel bag, a Porlex burr hand grinder, a bag of Holler Mountain Blend, a brew guide, instructions and an Aeropress brewer, filters and accessories, you’ll be all set.

Why did they decide to do this? According to Poler and Stumptown the collaboration came as “an effort to bring together all of our favorite Stumptown-approved, tried and true camp coffee brewing equipment, combined with Poler’s cool and affordable outdoor gear–all durable and portable enough to toss in a pack or the trunk of your car and gear you up to hit the dirt.”

All you have to do is boil a pot of water on the campfire, grind up those beans of Holler Mountain Blend, then place the grinds into the Aeropress brewer and pour the coffee into the mugs — and there you have it! Two freshly brewed cups of coffee in the great outdoors. We bet you’ll feel like you’re ready to conquer the world! Or well at least the camp trails. Or, if you’re stuck at home, you can use the Stumptown X Poler Camp Coffee Brew Kit to pretend you’re out on the mountains inside a tent.

Big Green Egg brings back a fan-favorite item for a limited time
However spend your evenings outdoors, the Big Green Egg Chiminea is there to help keep things warm
The Big Green Egg Chiminea.

Love good times by the fire on a chilly night? Want to enjoy a few drinks in a toasty spot after a long day at work? Of course, we all do. But throwing some logs in a pit in the ground doesn't quite do it. If you want a cozy evening, Big Green Egg brings the wow with the release of a special Chiminea to celebrate 50 years in business, and it will take your gathering around the fire to a whole new level.
The Big Green Egg update

Big Green Egg has been the go-to for outdoor grillers and smokers looking for an outdoor cooker for decades. But if you want to hang out in the fresh air without cooking, the Chiminea is what you need. Freestanding fireplaces aren't new, and Big Green Egg isn't trying to reinvent them. The vintage version from 1999 is the starting point, with upgrades worthy of a 50th anniversary.
What's cracking with this egg
If it's not broken, don't fix it, right? But even the littlest changes will make something feel fresh. For those who aren't the best at starting a fire and keeping it going, the Chiminea comes with Lava Rocks to keep the flames roaring more evenly and for longer. Made from NASA-grade ceramic, the quality isn't something to worry about, either. And, yes, it's still in that gorgeous, signature deep green color.

Beneath the fine agave spirits and beach-friendly lagers, there’s quality wine on Mexico’s Pacific coast.

This is how to sharpen a serrated knife the right way
This fearsome blade needs a little extra love
Knife blades closeup

In every good set of kitchen knives, there is one particular blade that most people both love and hate. We love it for its ability to flawlessly slice through foods like crusty baguettes and plump, ripened tomatoes. Its jagged edge gives us smooth cuts through otherwise tricky-to-slice ingredients, all while appearing rather fierce in the process. But this knife can be desperately infuriating in its trickiness to sharpen. This is the serrated knife - a fiercely toothy blade with a saw-like edge.

Serrated knives come in all sizes for a variety of kitchen tasks. Their toothy edge is perfect for many culinary uses, allowing for crisp, clean cuts without tearing or squashing the ingredient's often tender interior.
