Cooking facilities, recipes, methods, advice and opinions for those camping away from home. Can be inside the rig, outside of it, slide-outs or even over a campfire in a pit. Tell us your style and preferences!!
This is a terrific item, however, be aware that if you wish to "leave no trace" this may not suffice.
With some of the humble gas bottles (sans holes in bottom), a meal can be cooked up on the foot path or the bowling green (albeit with care) and not leave a burnt out patch.

Experience is a wonderful thing. It helps you recognise a mistake when repeated.
Had another thought. We camped at Maroochydore school over new years. A camper had a cooker on display made from a 4kg gas bottle that the Mens Shed in Northern NSW were making. Once again I did not get any further details.

The compact folded size & weight for travelling would be a bonus.

You can put a tray under as it's legs/feet are about 50-60mm off the ground.
I use a disc plow shield and have three nuts welded on the bottom and then I thread the bolts in and it stands about 8" of the ground and leaves no marks even after a week.
My choofer is a 4.5 kilo gas bottle.

Dirk go to the first page of this thread and look at the last post and photo on page one.
Another method to protect the ground under is to put your logs under the stove. The stove preheats the wood which is rooly useful for slightly damp logs.
