Abstract: The invention relates to a portable stove and provides for the use of a horizontal platform on which a vertically oriented cylindrical housing is positioned. A plurality of burners are secured adjacent a lower portion of the housing, the burners being connected through a fuel transmitting conduit to a fuel source outside of the housing. A pair of support plates are secured within the housing above the burners with one of the plates being connected to a bar which rotates the plate, to a limited degree, about its central axis in a horizontal plane, so as to cover notches formed in the second plate by its solid surface. The second plate is also provided with a plurality of equidistantly spaced notches, which, when aligned with notches of the first plate, allow heat to directly escape through the notches to an upper portion of the housing. The stove can be used for boiling, frying and/or grilling, when desired.
