Summer evenings full of atmosphere and elegance

A balmy summer evening in your own garden is the epitome of quality of life. When the last rays of sun disappear, the air remains pleasantly mild and nature comes to rest, a moment is created that you want to consciously enjoy. This is exactly where a stainless steel fire bowl unfolds its full fascination: it combines warmth, aesthetics and functionality in a unique way and becomes the focal point of encounters, culinary experiences and atmospheric evenings.

A fire bowl is much more than just a fireplace - it is a symbol of conviviality, culture and joie de vivre. The play of flames attracts attention, the glow of the fire gives every evening a special atmosphere and the crackling of the wood is reminiscent of archaic traditions that are still with us today.

So that you can use your fire bowl in a variety of ways in summer, we have put together the ten best ideas for you. Each of these ideas is designed to make your evenings not only cozier, but also more stylish and memorable.

1. stick bread and marshmallows - a pleasure full of childhood memories

Many of us associate stick bread and marshmallows with childhood memories. But this experience takes on a whole new quality in the stylish setting of a stainless steel fire bowl: with elegant stainless steel campfire skewers , dough or marshmallows can be roasted hygienically and safely over the flames - without the disadvantages of simple wooden sticks.

Preparing food together creates closeness, ease and joy. Especially when several generations are present, it creates an experience that brings everyone together - from grandfathers to the youngest grandchildren. While the younger ones have fun roasting, adults enjoy the aroma and the relaxed atmosphere around the fire.

Tip: Use a homemade yeast dough with herbs or garlic to turn the classic stick bread into a culinary specialty. It goes well with a glass of refreshing summer wine.

Our manufactory offers 2 types of skewers - the 10x campfire skewers and the individual marshmallow skewers. The campfire skewers are shorter and can also be used as barbecue skewers. The marshmallow skewers are longer and therefore offer a little more distance from the fire - this would be more recommended for smaller children for safety reasons.

2. culinary variety at the grill ring

A fire bowl with a grill ring opens up completely new dimensions in grilling and cooking. Unlike a conventional barbecue, it enables culinary diversity - because anything from steaks to juicy burgers can be made on the grill ring.

Whether tender fillet steak, Mediterranean vegetables or fresh pancakes with berries - the grill ring offers space for many creations. While the fire blazes in the middle, the food roasts on the hot stainless steel rim. This not only creates delicious aromas, but also an incomparable atmosphere.

This type of cooking is an experience for gourmets in particular: the combination of an open fire, fine ingredients and cooking together quickly becomes the highlight of the evening.

Tip: For good air circulation when barbecuing, you should definitely purchase the 4x spacers as well - this way you have an ideal air supply at all times, which always keeps the fire going, even on windless days. With the stainless steel inner grid, you can also use the inner surface of the grill ring - for example for pans and more.

3. enjoy summer cocktails by the fire

A stylish summer evening calls for elegant drinks. Cocktails and refreshing mocktails are particularly enjoyable around the fire bowl - the play of the flames provides the perfect backdrop.

With high-quality stainless steel jugs, drinks stay fresh and at the right temperature for a long time. A classic gin and tonic, a fruity Aperol Spritz or a non-alcoholic lavender mocktail are perfect for balmy summer nights. You can also use the jugs to prepare hot drinks over an open fire - whether Greek coffee, traditional tea or classic mulled wine.

A tip for hosts: set up a small outdoor bar. This allows guests to mix their own cocktails and experience the fire bowl as the focal point. The interplay of fire, drinks and conversation makes for an evening full of lightness and enjoyment.

4. cooking over an open fire

The interplay between fire and cooking has always had a special magic. Because outdoor cooking is the most original form of cooking - celebrated for centuries to millennia, it reminds us of the origins of humanity and revives a special connection to nature. This makes the fire bowl a place not only for cooking, but also for living, enjoying and sharing - an investment in experiences that extend far beyond everyday life.

The Stahlkunst fire bowl opens up a wealth of possibilities for outdoor cooking - with the cooking rack you can place pans & kettles directly on the fire bowl, with the stainless steel wok you can prepare delicious pan-fried dishes over the open fire or with the stainless steel tripod and kettle you can also prepare larger dishes for many people.

5. a romantic dinner for two

The fire bowl is not only suitable for social gatherings, but also for intimate, romantic evenings. With a stainless steel lid, the bowl transforms into a stylish lounge table during the day. In the evening, it becomes a fireplace that radiates warmth and romance - in a particularly stylish ambience.

A dinner for two by the fire is an unforgettable experience: a light summer wine, fresh antipasti and the soft lighting of lanterns or candles - that's all it takes to create special moments.

Especially for couples who value aesthetics and tranquillity, the fire bowl offers the perfect stage for a dinner in your own garden.

6. a private open-air cinema

Why not turn your own home into an open-air movie theater? With a screen, a projector and comfortable seating, you can create an ambience in the garden that is every bit as good as a small movie theater.

The fire bowl provides cozy warmth and atmospheric lighting, making the film screening a special experience. Classics such as "Casablanca" or "La Dolce Vita" have twice the impact in the open air.

An additional advantage: snacks such as popcorn or marshmallows can be prepared directly by the fire. This turns a movie night into a wonderful event with a charm all of its own.

7. pizza from the fire bowl - Italian lifestyle

A special pizza attachment transforms the fire bowl into an authentic stone oven. The result: crispy dough, golden brown cheese and aromas reminiscent of balmy evenings in Italy.

The preparation is not only appealing, but also an experience for your guests. Everyone can top their pizza as they wish and bake it directly over the fire. It goes well with a strong red wine or a glass of Prosecco.

Baking pizza on the fire bowl is ideal for family celebrations and sociable evenings - a slice of Italian joie de vivre in your own garden. With our pizza oven and pizza shovel, you have the perfect set for preparing great pizzas on the Stahlkunst fire bowl.

8. enjoy flamed salmon like in Scandinavia

Few dishes combine fire, nature and culinary delights as impressively as flamed salmon, a specialty from Scandinavia. The salmon fillet is placed diagonally against the flames of the fire bowl and gently cooked over a long period of time. The open fire not only gives the fish a delicate smoky note, but also ensures an incomparably succulent texture.

The sight alone is an experience: the play of flames is reflected on the golden surface of the salmon, while a fine aroma of wood, spices and fresh fish spreads. Refined with an aromatic marinade of honey, mustard or dill, the result is a taste experience that is rarely found even in upmarket restaurants.

Served with crusty bread, fresh summer salads or simply on its own, flamed salmon by the fire is a culinary highlight of any garden party. Guests not only experience an extraordinary dish, but also a piece of Nordic tradition - right in their own garden.

Our Stahlkunst Manufaktur offers 2 types of flamed salmon boards - one made of wood and one made of stainless steel. The wooden flaming salmon boards impart a natural flavor to the flaming salmon and are preferred by nature lovers. However, they are not as durable and are more time-consuming to clean and maintain. The stainless steel flammable salmon boards last for many years and can simply be put in the dishwasher after preparation - much less maintenance and cheaper in the long term than the wooden flammable salmon boards.

9. consciously experience the starry sky

A summer evening in the open air is the perfect opportunity to consciously contemplate the starry sky. With a fire bowl, you can enjoy the warmth and atmosphere, while the view of the vastness of the sky provides peace and serenity.

With modern constellation apps, constellations can be discovered and explored together with family or guests. For many, this opens up a whole new perspective on nature and its beauty.

A glass of champagne rounds off the moment in style.
