Hey Guys! A few evenings ago Phil from Down2Mob Overland busted out his Camp Chef to cook up some steaks, asparagus, and bacon so I decided to record a bit of it to see how preparing food on this surprisingly affordable "outdoor oven" would work out in the field.
I bought one years ago and we use it for when we do a large tailgate before a football game, and camping out a few days at a festival or race. Big and bulky for sure, but with two burners up top and two racks inside the over it'll cook a lot at one time. Also breakfast muffins and dinner rolls are just a luxury to enjoy.
Some of the best food I've ever had has been in the middle of the desert . Looking good!

That thing is awesome! It even attracted bait for night fishing.
Yew shout out from Brisbane, Australia ! Loved the Vid. Just bought a Companion Portable Gas Oven & Stove Cooktop Combo :)
Videos of you and down2mob hanging out are cool
I have one and I love it
I have one . Cabelas had them. I really like it.
I have one of those Camp Chef stove/ovens and I love it. Bought it to use in my man cave/garage and it works like a charm!
Can you connect them to a 20 lbs tank?
@@jasmandolin7853 yes, that's what mine us hooked to. I recommend an extension hose and a propane filter.
@@darbybronn248 thanks, picked up a slightly used one today.
@@jasmandolin7853 I think you'll love it. Just watch out for the vents on the sides and rear as they do let out a lot of heat when using the oven. Make sure nothing flammable is near them.
love this video
Hey Brian, I just watched an little older video you saying your direction is changing with what's going on with your health... I think I got some ideas for videos. I watch a ton of these van life/ truck camping etc..videos but I also relate this subject to bugging out ..shit hits the fan type videos...like for example you can do a bug out bag video where you go through and pull out your fire starting kit ...med kit ECT...Don't do reviews on products ..No one wants that. We want the experienced guy telling us this is what I do...and this is what I do if something bad happens..you must have a hiking bag or go bag if you need to leave your vehicle..if you look it up on UA-cam those videos get a ton of views ...I watched your specific gear for summer camping a lot so I could grab tips and learn.....gear videos people love especially when the camera is just showing the gear in your hands I don't know why but it attracts the eye. It might sound boring but I love watching that stuff anyways just an idea take care!
When I drove big rig I would cook stuff in Aluminum foil on the motor...
LOL> I've actually seen that done. It was done as a joke but it actually works for real.. I saw a beautiful white fish with lemon herbs done that way.. I never expected it to turn out that good.. mainly because they were horsing around... but it works doesn't it?
Hi!, your channel is great
that looks awesome.
Lve it!
Love that cooking set-up on the back of the door.
Phil's cast iron weighs more that the Camp Chef stove/oven 😀
What table do you have the Camp Chef on in the video? It looks like the perfect cooking height. I just purchased a Camp Chef am in the market for a table to place it on.
wo.. caterpillars. Do you think a person can get similar 2 burner for cheaper price but be a good product ? I'm trying to go ultra light so I dont want to have a indoor kitchen.
Can you put that oven hooked up inside the van surrounded by firewall board?
I prefer wood fire cooking when camping..but great for you propane cookers
dude- it's half can one side...half can or so other side....forget timers :)
Sure looks like a very good option.
Thanks. Now I'm hungry. ;-)
Not those F-ING Caterpillars AGAIN !....damn I had night mares for a solid week after watching that video the last time and now yo go bringing them back for a re-run......AArrgggggg
This works with a one lb green cylinder propane bottle. Took the 20lb tank camping a few days. Deep fried. Grilled with a griddle on top. And baked cookies. Works great. On smaller trips I'll take the green bottles.
Which hose do I need to buy to use the larger propane tanks
@@maryjuanarasta9220 just the normal ones you find at any place that sells propane grills.
Not sure Phil's propane is going to last as long as he hopes if he keeps cooking steaks as thick as that looked; lol I miss having a Camp Chef, got rid of mine when it was the only thing that required propane.
You ever cook a frozen pizza? Like a Jacks pizza in that oven?
$169.00 on Amazon right now December 10, 2022. It's going to go up as soon as camping weather is here.
👍
I wish I had room for it.
You should ahve bought it at Costco! $139
There's an old saying "Never press your meat!!!!!" for a reason!!! It makes your steak dry out..
Ending gave me the creeps
They have doubled in price. Are you still boondocking?
leave the steak alone
I would be putting some of that bacon fat in with that steak. Yeaaaa
Get a meat probe, time always differs with temp and thickness, once you figure out the temp you like yours at its spot on every time
300 + now 😞
Leave the steak alone!!
Your sear is not as good due to the seasoning keeping it off the grill AND your constant fiddling. Your just searing spices. Salt is all you need. If you need spices, spice the cutting board you’re resting the steak on. Then cut it on the board, thereby mingling the spice with the juices...your welcome.
Use coconut oil and stores well plus great fla or and healthy
Yep Coconut oil is the Only way to go for traveling food stuffs. Better for you than butter but the same outcomes with searing and browning. Plus Coconut oil can be used for all sorts of Human ailments too, dry skin, etc.
No butter? Ghee is what we made and store for years...needs no refrigeration
