Me and my friends have always been the outdoor type. There’s a group of us, we’re in our twenties now, there’s me – I’m John – and my best buddies Kent, David and Nigel, and we grew up together in Austin. We all live in the same area now, and occasionally we meet up for a few beers and to watch a game. It’s great having old friends that are still around, it makes things much more fun. When we were kids we used to go camping in the woods near our street, and it was a formative time of our lives.
That’s how our new idea came about – last time we all met Nigel suggested we should take a weekend away somewhere, relive our childhood fun. We all thought it a great idea and set about organising a fun weekend. We picked a spot in the hills where we used to hang out, and decided that it would be best of we all sorted out a specific part of the equipment. I got detailed to find the cooking equipment, so set about searching for the best camping stove on the internet.
It didn’t take long to find what I was looking for, but there was so much to choose from! With a choice of everything from a Coleman camping stove to the really cool Coleman camp oven to choose from I was pretty much spoilt for choice, and yet we didn’t need the oven – just something to cook in saucepans. I liked the idea of the Coleman portable grill – a really versatile idea that would be useful – but eventually settled on a model from Camp Chef stoves, a really good deal at just over 0 with dual burners and plenty of power, and a cool way of folding flat for carrying. It’s the best camping stove for us, without a doubt.
We used to have some great times when we were kids. I remember Kent’s mom would always make us some sandwiches and I would bring biscuits. We had pop and crisps, and torches to shine in the dark. We would sit there scared stiff when we heard an owl in the night, telling each other ghost stories and eventually drifting off to sleep. They were innocent times, and good ones, too. That’s what friendship is all about, and why true friends stay together.

wood camping stoves question by Lauren: How many lbs of charcoal should I bring for cooking 3 meals (Hot dogs & tinfoil packets) for 4-5 people?
We’ll be camping in Juniper Springs, FL this weekend and using their on-site fire pits and not the upright grills. Our 3 evening meals will be hot dogs and tinfoil packets filled with potatoes, carrots and either beef or chicken.
I’ve always cooked on wood fire and gas camping stoves so I’ve got no clue how many pounds of charcoal to bring. Any estimates or ideas would be great! Thank you!

Answer by t c
You would be fine with two of the smaller bags. Because they do have a 50 lb bag but you won’t need that much, so the two smaller bags should suffice







Fun Appliance, But Not Hot,
This is a fun addition to our RV. Many campgounds and RV parks do not allow open wood burning. Always a dissipointment for us as we love to sit around a natual camfire. It’s always fun to roast hotdogs and marshmellows. That’s when we break out this little firepit in a can. The unit is small with some artificial, but fairly natural looking logs; much like a gas fireplace in your home. All you do is unlatch three latches, udjust the logs; although we did find that the logs didn’t match up well with the holes and pegs that were on them; however it made little difference how you stcked those logs on the bottom ones. You then unwind the gas hose which is wound around the stand,under the pit and attache it by hand to a Propane tank which you can put up to eight feet away. The unit is mostly for the atmosphere. It puts out a litte heat, but it’s not going to keep you warm on a cold night. And we miss the crackling of the wood. (you can hook up your I-pod and play fire sounds) The unit overall works great. You can adjust the flame from low to high but the higher you go, the louder the hiss of the propane. We found that a medium flame was good. We bought a small bag of Rockwool and put some small pieces below the logs for the extra look of burning embers. You may be able to cook a hotdog over it, but we choose not to because it appears the grease would make a mess of the logs and they don’t look easy to clean. All in all, I think it’s a great idea and it works well. Do keep in mind that you will have to haul an extra propane tank as, even with an adapter, I don’t think it would run long on small tanks.

|Campfire,
This product is not perfect. One of the fake logs was broken in shipment and could not be replaced as the vendor buys it from China, no extra logs included. However, it provides a cheerful area where people can gather. It takes a lot of propane. The tank connection hardware that is included should fit all 2 to 20 gal. propane tanks. We had to buy a special adapter to make it fit the small camping canister that lasts for an evening on low flame, or about 2 hours if we wanted it to really look like a campfire. It seems well made and should be durable.

|Grandkids Love It!!!,
We travel in our Komfort trailer to many places and some RV parks do not allow firewood burning. So we thought this would be a great alternative for those locations. Although it is small, we liked the fact it would not take up much room while traveling. We tested it our with our grandkids at this one RV park so they could roast hot dogs and make Smores! Well they loved it and grandma liked it as well…so this grandpa made a few brownie points!!! It does put out ample heat…but most importantly still nice to be outside and enjoying the evening air…and yes of course “ghost stories”!

|The fire pits require much more charcoal than the upright grills to cook a meal. The grill sits higher (farther from the coals) than on the upright. I carry one 10 pound bag for each meal, or, go to a picnic area in the park and use the upright grills for cooking.
find something else to use………charcoal bricketts contain rubber dust to keep them burning………
If your going to have a wood fire anyway forget the charcoal it just adds weight to your camping supplies and wood fires will more then supply all the cooking needs you have. one bundle a night should suffice.
if you can’t have a wood fire then three small bags should do the job.
