Besides the camper I do have a favourite piece of kit. Let’s talk cooking here.
We started with this the heximan and probably all we could do was instant mash, sausages and beans in a tin and packet meals where you add water! It was just so basic. We could boil water on it so tea was a possibility too!
We then moved on to a single burner followed very quickly by a double burner where our meals started to become a little more ambitious. We moved up to tinned potatoes and the odd chilli and spag Bolognese as we could cook two things at once. Sometimes this was used in conjunction with the BBQ.
We also had a BBQ and eventually found this little rotisserie whilst on holiday in France. We became very ambitious cooking chickens and beef joints! We would often lace a chicken with lemon & thyme or garlic & butter put it on the BBQ rotisserie and they play Scrabble. The smells of chicken would go all over the campsite and people would often walk by and remark on how good it smelt and looked.
The Cobb came next and this little beauty gave us even more scope for our cooking. It was easy to use and we could make anything from the usual curry, chilli etc to a full roast dinner. We have made paella from time to time too!
And finally this is our chosen cooking utensil which is by far my favourite piece of kit “the instant pot and airfryer#. To be honest we have one of these at home and we use it on a daily basis, our oven is almost obsolete these days! When our pot at home broke they sent us a new one, and we were told to get rid of the old one. At this point I let Tim have a look at and he got it working so now we have two! Our cooking has gone up a few notches we can now pressure cook, air fry, saute, steam slow cook etc! So we can do everything we used to and yet so much more. We make our porridge in it, soups, all sorts of dinners, chips, and jacket potatoes all in record time!
Of course we do need electric hook up (EHU) so not something for the wild camping but if it’s Michelin star cooking you want this is the dogs!!!
