Electric Camp Cooking
Of course I have a variety of propane gizmos for cooking, but like a lot of vehicles these days, the F-150 lightning provides another option with it’s built in 110v outlet in the bed. There are youtube videos what show people cooking all weekend, and not even using 10% of the battery, so it’s a viable option for my quick trips. I’ve had my eye out for a hotplate for sometime now to go with my tiny toaster oven for next to nothing.
Pulling in at the golden hour
After giving up on finding one for sale, I picked up a Nuwave Precision Induction Cooktop. This setup works great for making a quick breakfast sandwich, is easier to clean up than a lot of camping stoves I’ve had, and packs up really nice. See here for yourself!
If I’m already getting an electric site for Camp’n and Charg’n a setup like this makes sense. It also works for boon-docking and relying on the truck for power.
Who doesn’t want to linger by camp and take your time getting going in the morning? Electric cooking like this is a little easier to deal with than the gas cooking I normally do while camping, so I’m less likely to skip the whole thing and hit a drive-thru. I get to enjoy the sunrise with a beverage and home made breakfast and still be a little lazy. I mean it’s supposed to be a vacation, right?
