The larger carbon footprint saving would result from not eating chicken. While chicken is better than lamb and beef, it's more than 3 times worse than vegetarian foods.

I have built enough this year and so am looking for a pre-made solar cooker that will hopefully cook chicken and bake.  Any experience out there with any of the pre-mades?

Thanks!
