Indoor cooking

[Oaklevel]

We do a lot of both. We cook just as much indoors as we do outside.

I suppose for the same reason some never put in and carry water in their fresh tanks or crap in their toilets. For some, an R/V is just a place to sleep or get out of the rain.

Like you, we treat ours the same as our home (I know, yours is your home) and do ALL the things in it we'd do there.

I will say- food cooked over a fire just TASTES BETTER!

I don't know what an adversion is, but we cook in both locations.

We heat things indoors. Chili, pot of corn, soup, and so on. But for the main course, it's almost all done outside. Bacon, sausage, grilled meats (burgers, chicken, etc.), and other aromatic foods are cooked outside.

I like smells, grease, and heat to be outside. And, I like to be outside.

Not a fan of outside kitchens, as the RV-grade appliances aren't my thing (small and low BTU), they are too close to the side of the RV, they sit too high (especially if on the high-side of the trailer, and they eat up too much storage space. I prefer a Camp Chef stove that ties into my RV's quick connect propane fitting.

That's a fact. Especially if it's eaten with your fingers.

However, if you camp year around it's sometimes too cold,windy,rainy, to cook outside so unless you want to starve, inside cooking is necessary.

I've just learned to use both fans, over range and fantastic fan, to clear any smoke. For stove top grilling I use a Bobby Flay grill/pan with a screen type splatter shield. I also temporarily remove the smoke detector from it's ceiling location

As for the oven, biscuits, cinnamon rolls, even bread, are regularly baked in mine.

When you are in the trailer 200+ days a year, you cook wherever you can.

That said, anyone who won't cook bacon inside is just weird, and their mama dresses them funny! LOL. I just cooked bacon inside. Smells........awesome! Bacon is goooooddddd!


Anything that can be cooked on my GMG smoker/grill, is cooked there, weather permitting. But we have about every device known to man. Panini machines, Airfryer, Instapot, griddle, toaster oven, Keurig coffee pot, Convection microwave/oven combo, Inside fish fryer, outside fish fryer........


We got all that cause we do a lot of eating.

We cook foods inside and outside the camper, depends on the food and weather outside.

I do 90% of the cooking outside but i also prefer cooking over a fire when camping. So the other 10% is when the weather is too bad to even cook under the awning on the portable stove

[dbledan]

I cook where the weather demands. I prefer outside because I want to be outside. Most times it is hot and I don't want to stress the AC. When weather rolls in I will cook inside as well. Bacon makes everything better including the smell of my RV. It's like not baking cookies because it makes your house smell good.

I have to remove the smoke detector battery every time even if I just make toast.

I do almost all of the cooking while we are traveling. My wife gets to take a vacation from kitchen duty. I prefer to cool outdoors when possible unless the weather is bad or the bugs try killing me. (Have you ever been to Michigan during black fly season?)
I personally prefer cooking on my 40 year old Coleman stove (that burns white gas) using my cast iron pans. Food tastes better made in cast iron. We also use our dutch oven on the wood fire, makes great baked goods.

We cook inside and out. If more than a few days we set up an outside table with electric griddle and crock pot. Don’t use a grill but try to cook over the fire when we can. We have a tripod stand from Coleman that breaks down in seconds.
