What is the best way to cook and what cooks best for you?
This would be while on camping trips in your boat, using your boat stove.
Stove ?
Pans ?
BBQ ?
Just a question from the crew of the Catch - 22.

Been usin them 2-burner propane camp stoves for ever! their good. Now I'm favorin' the Generator powered electric stove! less-sweaty cabin, less fumes, easy clean-up . Super-duper easy to stow away |

And if you want to take electric a bit further, get a Sunbeam microwave (Wallyworld $40) that even a Honda 1000 will power with ease, and throw in your favorite dish you pre-cooked at home, or buy them. I store the Sunbeam atop the water tank, along with a small charcoal lighter (stovepipe with handle kind) that I've fitted a wire mesh grill over (cooks a couple burgers with 4 charcoal briquets) |

I've heard that there is the protein equivalency of a pork chop in every beer...a couple of pork chops, throw in some potato chips and you have an easy to fix meal
M makes some gruell out of whatever veggies and mushrooms and peppers you want along with some ground beef. She wraps up in tin foil, thows it on the BBQr and out comes a complete meal _________________ Ken

We do have a one burner propane for fast coffee first thing out of the sack. Like on the Redfox propane makes to much sweat for cold weather. We need to look at more electric powered stoves or hot plates we do have the honda EU2000. Our wallace stove is just fine for most things and the BBQ works good on others.
Kens thoughts on protein, pork chops and chips sounds good too.
What type of cooking pans have folks had the best luck with?
What we use now is the nested type ( 4 pots one inside the other) which is great for storage but not the greatest to use.

Although I am new to C. dory (delivery maybe this week!!)..I have spent a lot of time in the last 25 years on Chesapeake in 32 to 40 ft. boats..two adults, two kids..With my new 22 it will be mostly 2 adults, sometimes our 12 year old...the oldest is away in college, and has "flown from the nest"...
So, I figure to just scale down from what we always did.
Just one frying pan, and three pots, large medium small..nesting.
five all purpose mugs, utensils.
coffee pot, six cup.
we unpack most containers into plastic bags to save space.
We use two smaller coolers. one rarely opened for frozen stuff, theother for in and out use. we use the new ultracold coolers from Coleman
We cook a lot of one dish meals..
We carry a very small fold up barbcue and cook on the dock sometimes...
we shop along the way for vegetables, seafood, etc.
we use leftovers for lunch
we use a ll bean folding bucket for dishwashing ...
we use lemonade concentrae and iced tea concentrate
sometimes we carry a one burner small propane stove for quick stuff.
it all fits in a box we use as a seat in the cockpit.
we hope to modify all this for the 22..we'll see.

Hi,
We use a Coleman 2 burner propane camp stove for cooking. Pots and pans are Revere Ware stainless steel pots and teflon coated pans, one large and one small. We use a Revere Ware steamer which stacks on the medium size pot for vegetables and shrimp/clams. _________________ Larry H

Well it's easy to see this is a topic of interest and "evolution" to me
Yes, ya gotta have at least a 2-k 'gen to run a two-element stove. I like that idea of the small nuke-oven with a 1-k 'gen also Many times I have thought of having that 1-k in place of the 2-k. (heavy)
I just made-up that pic ferya this mornin, now I'm off to go riddin again. But it's the 'evo-topic' currently in on my Baby right now cookin! (and I ain't even a cook ) |

I really like the 1K gen. I bought a camping kit (Ozark Trail) just to get the tall porcelain stock pot which feeds many. The whole kit was something like $14 and the pot alone was $11. Small frying pan, 4 cups, 4 plates, and the pot in the kit. Things that get used all the time are the plates and cups (make good soup cups). What hardly ever gets used is the frying pan -- to small for my likes.
The nuke machine really is handy for breakfast. I get a box of those little Rudy's Farm sausage biscuits (2 to a package -- 20 packages in a box) put the 4 cup Mr. Coffee on (1K gen runs it like a champ) zap the sausage biscuit for 40 seconds and breakfast is a done deal. No more spattering grease with the nuker aboard . . . |

Quote: | I really like the 1K gen | Me too! Here's why; 10 amp/2 Bank Battery Charger, Microwave Oven, Drip 10 Cup Coffeemaker, George Foreman Grill for steaks, burgers, fajitas, reubens, etc., Belgian Waffle Maker, Crepe Maker, 1875 Watt Hair Dryer(full air/half heat). Any household appliance under 850-900 watts will work. The genny lets me keep the Wallas focused on heating the cabin while I cook with the electricals. Real important when it's 30 degrees outside. She sits on the starboard lazarrette in use and stores in the vee-berth. Easily refueled from portable tank using an OMC coupler. Check out the photos in Adeline's album to C how it all works. http://www.c-brats.com/modules.php?set_albumName=album104&op=modload&name=gallery&file=index&include=view_album.php _________________ Pete

I forgot the GF grill . . . an absolute MUST HAVE!
I set mine in the motor well, if you take a 2x4 and a 2x8, set the 2x4 against the transon and the 2x8 over that, it makes a flat surface perfect for the generator and the exhaust jets straight back.
I store mine under the bunk in the V with the hassock. As for fuel, they use so little of it a tank lasts for many hours. Great little devices. |

You guys can run that stuff with that little Yamaha? I'm thinking one of those set up in the transom could be the bees knees |

Ken: it's easier to talk about what you can't run than what you can, and in that regard:
has anyone found a version of the only two things I can't find that the 1000 will handle: a small fry-daddy, and a toaster-oven. If I can find those two items I'll be one happy c-dawg-e. |
