I currently have a Mr.  Heater Portable Buddy and would like to use it to maybe heat up some food out on the ice.   Any ideas?

There are several mods people have used. Just google "cooking with a portable buddy" and you'll find information there including a couple videos.

Yep as Retired says there are a lot of mods that work... Most a home made grate that fit over the front making a ledge to put  your food/coffee pot on.  Using a grate from either a paint roller or cooking pan, bending and attaching to top and front with wire or metal clamps.   Most cook in a aluminum loaf pan so not to have droppings or flair up on the Buddy heater.   Here is a link to a bunch of them...http://www.iceshanty.com/ice_fishing/index.php?topic=132730.0

Well,  I did a lot of surfing today researching to find something to heat up food on my Buddy heater.   I found something that might be just what I'm looking for.   I don't know how to post pics here yet but there is a website to buy it at buddyburners.com.   Anyone have one of these?   If so,  how do you like it?   Thanks!
