I clicked on this video because of an interest in solar ovens. Much to my surprise I found the most colorful meatloaf recipe ever. It looks delicious! Thank you.

Hope you enjoy! Many thanks for watching.

So much care has gone into the design and production of these beautiful, sustainable SunOK solar ovens.

Thank you so much for sharing the whole experience of unboxing this awesome solar oven and an awesome prepared meal!

Great production quality on: audio levels, lighting, camera angles and content. Thumbs up. Unfortunately SunTaste is keeping it a big secret on how to purchase a unit.

I think if you just go to the website you will see a contact info link...just send them an email asking about how to purchase.

This Solar Unit is indeed beautiful in design, but more importantly is supreme! My boyfriend purchased several of these units! Out of love, we are making sure our loved ones have these on hand. These units, if ordered directly through SunOK and Nuno, ship from Lisbon Portugal. Nuno has done a phenomenal job with this unit in which 5 Stars is underrated! Our family members truly LOVE the performance of this unit and the ease of use. A Sunny day, out in the open with good sun circumference is all that is required. Our family is so pleased with this, they are making a journal of temperature outside and cooking times! Everything they have made has turned out so well and so very good! In essence, YOU WILL NOT BE DISSAPOINTED WITH THIS PURCHASE! COOK IT, EAT IT, LOVE IT, AND ENJOY... ❤❤❤

Hi, are you located in the US? How is the solar oven working for you so far? Would like to ask few questions about the oven.

I've been so happy with mine as well. I am going to put out an update video here very soon as it's been well over two years and going strong!

This is incredible, but it seems it isn't widely available here in the states. That is a shame because this design is much better than many on the market.

You have bought your self a great cooker thanks for the demo. Looks delicious 😋

Yum, I think I'd love to try something like this. Especially in the summer when heating the house is not fun. Everything looks delicious and amazing.

That meatloaf looks amazing. I like your recipe. Good review of the oven too. I'm adding it to the top of my wish list.

Everything about this video is really cool, insightful & uplifting. I love the details & enjoyment. Best video hands down... I mean up! Thank you for the work.

Great off the grid solution. I'm gonna get one. Can't wait to try out my new toy!

Thank you! I really like the oven. Your dog is precious! Leslye

Your meat loaf recipe is amazing ! Thanks for sharing .

By the end of your video, I was drooling! Great job! Subscribed.

Thanks for making this video. I've also contemplated designing a solar oven, and didn't know about this one. Have a heavier GoSun grill now.I do miss the roomier, box cooker shape though. thanks again.

Nice video, no obnoxious music and great information. Thank you

He walks, he talks, he cooks! He has a cute dog! Great video and nice sound track. With these 100 degree days coming up I'm looking to cook solar. Only to find that its not really the temperature that does it but the UV. So could have been doing this all along all year round LOL.

Researching a sun oven so this was helpful. Thanks for the post.

It's definitely a nice design, and has a nice look ascetically as well. Me, I'm obsessed with ultimate efficiency. I'm working on designing a light weight, vacuum insulated cooler that will double as a Solar oven, passive night time refrigeration unit (by radiating IR up into space), and also a day time active, no electricity refrigeration unit with an add on evaporative/phase change and adsorptive closed loop cooling system that is regenerated by the heat of the Sun. Switching from one function to the other will be super fast and easy--in most cases just switching out a different top/lid. Everything will be based on the core of the cooler, but with different tops for the different functions (and in the case of the daytime fridge, two containers connected by two hoses). I'm trying to make it out of the most sustainable materials possible for most of it. The majority of it will be wood and two forms of unusual, lightweight glass. The main driving force behind it's efficiency is the vacuum insulation. I've figured out a way to make vacuum insulation panels that are light weight, strong, durable, and moderately easy to make. Basically by using a composites approach, except that the main adherent will not be epoxy nor polyester resin as neither of these can hold a vacuum long term and nor do they deal with high temps well. To put it into some perspective, Cork has an R value at best of R4 per inch, which is good for a natural material--it's kind of natures equivalent to foam. A hard vacuum insulation has an R value of R60 per inch. Mine probably won't be a super hard vacuum like that but more of a medium vacuum. So let's estimate R40/inch. To put it another way, it would take 10" thick cork to achieve similar insulation capacity of my 1" vacuum panel. That means it will get up to cooking temperature much faster, reach much higher temps, and retain temps far longer than any Solar cookers minus the evacuated tube ones which also insulate via vacuum. But these don't hold much volume of food and are not easy to work with in relation to larger, bulkier items. You would be able to cook a whole turkey in my design. It would work in winter well unless you're at such a far north or south latitude you receive barely any sun. I'm not sure on pricing yet, but I plan to offer a package deal for the 4 in 1 system of somewhere around 350 to 400. The main cooler itself will be around 200 or so. I believe Yeti is the only brand that in the US sells a vacuum insulated cooler and their's retails for 800. If these sell decently, I also plan on making a smaller cooler for use in vehicles that works on TEC's and Solar panel+battery (with also an option to plug into the car). Also vacuum insulated (though, in this case except for the top) and can double as a night time radiative refrigerator (if you happen to run out of battery juice).

Great video! I've had an interest in solar cooking but have never bought one. I might have to look into this one for sure!

Yummmmm!!! Definitely ordering this will work great in Quartzite Az this coming year. ☺️👍🌵

Unbelievable! Good one! Thank you for posting.

Good cooker, delicious looking food and a good background music, there is almost nothing that's missing in this video for a viewer 👍 Thanks for sharing.

I’m glad I found your channel. I’ll definitely buy one. Thank you!

The dish is beautiful! Very healthy

Nice review! I can’t wait to try your meatloaf recipe! Thank you.

Great video! I’m going to go check it out. Meatloaf recipe looks yummy too. Thanks for great video and easy explanation!

This is a nice design. There's been advances in coatings that can be applied to glass that allow heat to permeate in but not leave (one way heat transfer). Looks good for a picnic

Man I don't know why the hell you don't have any comments??? I found your video fantastic and actually a bit therapeutic very well done! Your meatloaf looks absolutely awesome :-)

Great video, Thanks for sharing. Good looking cooking!

Thanks for sharing this experience with us Alan. The solar cooker is a very functional design. We don't have cork here in Zimbabwe but I want to try to make one out of wood. I like the way it opens from the back and uses real mirror reflectors.

Yummy! Wish you were my own personal cook! You got it going on.

Well done video. I liked the unboxing and meal preparation. You should make more cooking videos.

I came here for the solar pan design...But man, I am loving the meatloaf addition..definitely going to try that recipe..😋

It's the best I've tried, hands down. Its a bit exotic for meatloaf but for some reason it just tastes better done in a solar oven. I have no idea why, but it surely does.

That was a nice video and Solar oven.Now I'm hungry!

Nice, free cooking, love your fur baby

Thank you for your unboxing video. I cannot afford such a luxury item. But I have the skills in wood working and engineering. I will build one and post up. Thank you again

JUST WONDERFUL!!!!!

This is amazing!

Great design. I think it might perform a little better if you had side reflectors as well.

Damn, that food looks so good 👍 .. I think I'm gonna try to make one of this solar panels too

Very cool, Man!

Thanks for the great video!...

Wow, great staff

Nice video thank you for sharing this important information listening from Brownwood Texas

Wow cool solar cooker

Thanks for the recipe and video.

Love it. It looks like all the good things from my Solavore but maybe even better. Just a tip though, if the heat plate at the bottom is coated with black paint, the oven thermometer can scratch the coating. I put an edging of sugru around mine, which is supposed to be heat safe. Thanks for the video

Thanks for sharing this video

That was great- thanks.

Looks like the solar cooker works well AND I love meatloaf!

VERY GOOOOOD

great vid Brother

i like it definantely something for me after trying the airfryer. maybee also a good tool for roasting dendelion roots for making coffie and boil water to get the roasted dendelion roots cooked after roasting.No energy use. this is good for survival without aver risking forrest fires or overcooking.it also may fry fries but only with a grill between the botton of the dutch oven also leaving the lit off with fry them dry. Just perfect , i get one of these

Meat loaf is the best if it is do n e right. Thanks for the recipe and the oven tip.

Yum. Thanks

Amazing!!!

Very cool.

I bet the guys over at CHAZ would love to get their hands on this😂

No comments? Quality video, man

It works well! Maybe I'll build it!

Thanks Alan for the in depth unboxing and review. And featuring meatloaf. My kinda meal. Thanks also for sharing you recipe for the meatloaf. Looks very tasty. I have to say Meatloaf is one of my favorite meals. This looks like a great solar cooker. Will work well here in Texas. I find it hard to believe that it's now June 17, 2020 and this is the first comment with over 87 thousand views and almost 9k subs. I'm gonna search it out myself. A real bonus it comes with 2 cooking vessels. Thanks again! How's it holding up for you?

So far so good after more than two years of service. Honestly, it's done so well I am thinknig about getting another one for the lake house so I don't have to pack it up and unpack it so often, and I wont leave it by accident lol.

Fabuloso !!!

Get some flexible cutting boards. You cut roll aim invert. Saves a lot of time , handy for bagging too.

that looks yum

Looove meatloaf!

Nice job

Aaaah, how can you resist little Thea? She's so cute! Thanks for showing this oven, I hope I can find it online since you forgot a link, stinker:-( I also hope you're getting a commission on them, since you sold me, at least, dude!

Very interesting...

Very good! Didn't see a cost on their website. Sent them an email. Hope it's not too expensive. Thanks!

Nice,awaysom.

Wish you had a thermometer we could see the temp. Great presentation!

You have an iggy! We have one named DIno. She is abdorbs. We had never seen a solar oven thanks for introduction.

Good!!!

I think I was getting somewhere between 225F and 250F on this particular day. I don't have a set time but you can usually tell how long based on the browning on top. I usually let it go for at least two hours though. The grease cleaned up super easy with just a paper towel.

This is the nicest looking solar cooker I’ve seen! I really want one. I’m in New Mexico and it’s such as shame to let all this sunshine go to waste! Thanks for the wonderful video. Assuming you’re in the USA? How much did it cost with shipping?

Oh if you're in NM you have prime solar cooking areas. I think at the time, it was about $350 USD. With supply chain issues and staff shortages from Covid, I have no idea now though.

Nice video, I am planning to buy one, but was wonder it will work in cold western European climate

I don't know how you haven't got any comments? Absolutely great video loved it what kind of temperatures does the inside of the cork oven get up to?
