IMHO the cabin is second best. Teepee is the best for building fires.

I have been using a Kelly kettle a lot lately, usually dump a bunch of wood shavings or dried leaves in the base and then sticks above that in the chimney.

Cabin method is better when you want to cook above the fire. The flames stay low, but on tee pee method, the flames go too high and scorch the food.

I don’t cook over open flames. Only coals.
Also this is just to start the fire. You build up a larger bed after your kindling gets going.
