Know before you buy
Fatwood is a resin-rich wood harvested from the stumps of pine trees. Because it is naturally saturated with resin, it ignites easily and burns hot, allowing you to start a fire without needing kindling or newspaper.
Yes. Because the crock is made from durable, food-safe American stoneware, it is oven, microwave, and dishwasher safe. You can easily repurpose it as a kitchen utensil holder or a serving piece once the fatwood is gone.
The crock comes with three pounds of fatwood, which is specifically measured to fit comfortably within the vessel. It provides a generous supply for multiple fires while keeping your hearth area tidy.
The stoneware is crafted for durability and is easy to clean. If it gets dusty or marked from hearth use, you can simply place it in the dishwasher to restore its finish.
No, the Laurel Fireside Crock is designed as an open-top vessel. This allows for easy access to the fatwood sticks when you are ready to build a fire.
