When I got chosen to host a Sterno S'mores party through Tryazon, I was super excited. Like I said, there's so much about s'mores that I love, but often the only times you eat them are camping and around a fire. I love the element that you can enjoy them more times of the year besides just camping time!
I tried it out during our playgroup with moms and kids and it was a hit! But I knew it would be.
Pros:
It's easy to set up. The pieces fit together easily.
There's a section for assembling your s'more.
Grate covers the heat source for extra safety.
Light weight
SUPER easy to clean!
No smoke smell
Didn't burn down my house
Cons:
Only comes with 2 roasting sticks (I improvised with others I had) BECAUSE the most effective place to roast is directly above the heat source. Makes for slower use with big groups.
The replacement heat sources vary in price. I've seen it 2 for $15, but it's currently 2 for $7. That's much better for me since the unit costs $35 to start.
Tryazon and Sterno gave me an extra unit to give to someone who came. I decided rather than me deciding who would get it, I would put it up for a vote. Since s'mores used to be eaten around campfires only, I had people share some of their best and worst camping stories. We ranged from someone was a hottie right as he walked by their tent/embarrassing stories to saying prayers that the chili wouldn't give everyone gas, to the genius husband who thought taking his 5 kids camping, by himself, in cold, March, Utah would be a good idea. This last story was voted as best. (Poor husband was warned it would be cold. He forfeited all his warm clothes and sleeping bag, and the kids were still cold, he packed it all up at 2 a.m. and headed back home.) It was fun to share our experiences together.
Overall, the kids loved it, the adults loved it. We should do it again!
