Frequently Asked Questions About Outdoor Kitchen Gear

Your outdoor kitchen is the cooking and eating that you do out of doors. This covers everything from light and compact hiking stoves and hiking cooksets for when you're on the hiking trail, to cookware and tableware for your camp kitchen and on to spending time in your garden for a braai or potjie. It even covers flasks for your next road trip, camp or morning commute, water bottles to stay hydrated on the go and camp fridges and coolers to keep food fresh on your trip.

As a basic camping setup, you will need some pots to cook in, a stove to cook on and plates and cups to eat and drink from.

Although you can use pots and pans from home, camp cookware is designed to be light and compact to make it easy to pack. Camp cooking sets are a handy solution as they are usually designed to nest inside one another for one compact unit to pack, alternatively there are individual frying pans and cooking pots that are designed to be compact to pack.

If you're going to be camping for a couple of days, you'll also need a good cooler to keep perishables chilled. You don't need to make a big investment right off, but if you do camp often and for longer periods of time, especially in warm weather, you can upgrade to a camp fridge.

When you're hiking, packing space and weight are a top consideration when buying gear and your cooking setup is no different. You're looking for a hiking stove solution that will allow you to produce hot food and drinks on the hiking trail that won't weigh you down.

The all-in-one cooking systems are a compact solution for one or even two people. Consisting of a compact and powerful cartridge powered gas stove with a tailor-made heating cup, all-in-one cooking systems are designed to heat up fast and pack down compactly - ideal for quickly boiling water for hot drinks and rehydrating or heating trail-ready meals.

Cartridge gas stoves are an extremely popular choice as hiking stoves. The stoves themselves are small and light and modern valved gas cartridges are easy and safe to use and come in a variety of sizes. If you are concerned about finding the correct fuel cartridges on remote trips, or are hiking in particularly cold conditions, liquid fuel stoves with a refillable liquid fuel bottle are an excellent choice.

The main difference between a camping fridge and a camping cooler is that a camping cooler is an insulated box that uses ice bricks to keep the contents inside cool and fresh, where a camping fridge is a portable refrigerator usually designed to run from battery and mains power.

Camping coolers are excellent for day trips and weekends away, with the most advanced models designed to stay cool for several days if used correctly. Camping fridges are a great option for regular campers or those longer outdoor adventures, especially in hot weather. So long as you have a reliable source of power, camping fridges will keep your food and drink chilled like at home and can also be used as freezers - an especially handy feature in double compartment models
