Off Grid Camping - Tips on Cooking

Cooking during off grid camping can be a fun and rewarding experience Here are some tips for cooking while out in the wilderness:  

Portable Stove: Invest in a camping stove that is small, light and meets your needs. Stoves that use gas, liquid fuel or solid fuel are just a few of the alternatives. Pick a device that is simple to set up, effective, and secure to use such as the BCB Wild Camping Compact Cooking Set  

Fuel Considerations: Take into account the length of your trip and the number of meals you intend to cook by packing a sufficient amount of fuel for your stove. Be prepared and bring the appropriate fuel bottles or canisters. Pack a few Firedragon Solid Fuel Pouches, just in case. 

Cookware: Choose sturdy, lightweight cookware - we have a range of collapsible cookware.

Planning your meals: Plan ahead of time will help you pack the necessary items in airtight containers or resealable bags.

Water treatment: Carry a water filter or purification device to make natural water safe for drinking and cooking if you must use it. Another efficient way to get rid of germs and parasites is to boil water. We have a range of water purification products.   

Keep it Simple: Keep your cooking methods straightforward and effective. Soups, stews, and stir-fries are examples of one-pot dishes that are quick to make and call for few tools. 

Safety: Make sure you have a designated fire pit or ring if you intend to cook over a campfire. Stick to the rules of fire safety and only use dead and felled wood for your fire. Never allow a fire go unattended, and properly put it out before leaving.

Respect: Keep in mind to adhere to any local rules and laws pertaining to cooking and fire safety. Respect the environment and the local wildlife and nature by camping responsibly and leaving the area as you found it.
