Camp stove cooking

I've been using the same, single burner, Coleman stove for six years - paid $39. Still works.

Thinking about getting one of these. Amyone use this?

This thing is awesome, I’ve used it at work cooking for my staff and when camping. I cooked just about everything on it. The con is that it’s a little bulky and takes someone space. I would say this is good if you are good cooking for a group or family.

Some friends of mine have that one plus the big one they use at home in place of a traditional grille. It cooks nicely but dang it takes up a lot of space in the back of their JKU.

I’ve used a similar griddle style stoves. Over the years I’ve preferred pans over a burner but the griddle style or skottle has grown on me.
If it’s not to expensive it’s worth a shot.

Hello, my first camping cookbook was "The easy camp cookbook". Easy to read, perhaps 100 recipes. Wishing you good cooking.

That would be really neat if incorporated in a trailer kitchen slide out.

I have my simple Coleman 2 burner on a slide out and lazy susan that I built for my 80 Land Cruiser. It's been awesome for years. A tip for those that use the Coleman. You can take off the burner control knobs and regrease the rubber grommets inside to get perfect low burner control.

Stumbled upon this thread at just the right time. I’m looking at purchasing our first portable stove.. as much as I looove a good old fashioned camp fire, waiting 30 minutes for a cup of coffee is rough going.
I started with looking at Blackstone cuz I have some of their stuff at home and it’s got great build quality, but thanks to a previous post here it confirmed my concerns that it’s too bulky. That and it seems that a griddle is not as versatile as regular stove.. maybe?
So I was looking at the Camp Chef Everest or Rainier.. and then I came across the GSI Pinnacle Pro. I think I may just hold off until it’s available :)

I have owned many stoves, back packing and car units,while gas, canisters. Green bottles, lots. For car camping we started with a Colman, converted it to propane. My wife gave to a primes for Christmas and used o]it for 20 years before it passed. Went with a Camp Chef Everest it had a critical fail on the 5th trip. The tube from 1 burner broke at the 2nd burner. It broke driving to the first camp. The trip was a week. I capped it and had a brazed so I could use it. Camp Chef told me to pound sand. I picked up a Camp Partner. It is the best stove I have ever owned hands down. The nobs are protected, solid aluminum body. They don’t get reviewed because they are sold direct.

@MMc - Thanks for that info. Just took a look at a vid and those things look like tanks. And the recessed knobs.. nice touch.

Among the stove designs mentioned above, the Pinnacle Pro Stove looks the most innovative. No price yet though - it's due out in 2021.

There's a brief video. Here is the link: GSI Pinnacle Pro Stove

When I was using a two burner I was using a Camp Chef Everest. I was sold on the very high BTU output compared to other similar stoves.

Same. I'm all for a stove with high BTU.

 

[MMc]

High BTU’s are fine to boil water, the camp chef left a lot to be desired when it came to flame adjustment. I’ll cook anything or the road that I’ll at home therefor I want a fine flame control. I’ll gladly take a minute or to for my coffee to be able to make a hollandaise a tempered egg dish or simmering without burning dinner.

You can always enlarge the jet on any stove. I have a buddy that his stove is nick named the “Thiokol jet stove” I have seen it melt aluminum heat exchangers.
