OK, so we are gathering our stuff for the “maiden voyage” of our rented Itasca Navion.

We love to cook and to eat great food. Thus, we hope to be able to experiment with “camp cooking” so that we don't have to go to crummy restaurants or eat cold fruits and cheeses.

What do you find to be the most useful and used cooking vessel, implement or appliance in your RV: Pan, pot, wok, crockpot, toaster oven, BBQ or???

We’ve already purchased a small, portable BBQ. It’s just an inexpensive, charcoal model.

Do you folks find that propane is a better way to go? If we like the experience we might spring for a new Coleman grill with a side burner and sell our old one.

The concern is that those things are heavy.

We do have a single propane burner (usually used for table-side Asian cooking) that we plan to take along.

Oh, of course, DH and the doggies. Wouldn’t leave home without them.

My humble opinion is anything electric. You can use them inside or out, fry, stew, boil, braise, and they don't heat up the 5er.

So, how does that work? Do you need to run the engine/generator to use an electric appliance?

The small electric griddle that I purchased at Wal-Mart. Easy to cook on and easy to clean.

IMO the charcoal takes too long to be ready to cook on. At the end of a day of travel I'm hungry and I don't want to wait for the coals to be ready. Just fire up the gas grill and you are ready to go.
I have a cheap ($50) gas grill and it works great.
