My name is Dave and I travel with my dog Bella in a 1987 Class A Motorhome. My channel is about full time RV Living in an older RV while keeping the wheels rolling on a budget. I do the repairs, updates and upgrades myself. I’ve become my own RV Mechanic/Medic! I seek boondocking opportunities every chance I can and power the RV with 500 watts of solar and approximately 500 amp hours of batteries. RV Resorts are just not our style!

I could almost smell the Coleman bacon aroma, we’ve come a long way in so many areas but lost many things along the way. The nostalgia of those simple camping trips in a tent, cooking over a wood fire, someone pulling out a guitar and having a sing along around the fire. Roasting potatoes, apples, marshmallows, hotdogs on sticks and making s’mores . Those were great memories made with people we loved and in my case are gone now.
Enjoy your summer🥰🙋🏼♀️
The difference how things were made back then, to last.
I remember camping with my folks and they had one of these. Many good meals my Mom cooked on one of those.
Fresh fish - Dad caught - potatoes eggs and so much more. Yum
Good memories for me.
Bacon!! You bet.
Watching you cook on that old Coleman makes me want to go camping! I also cut my bacon in half like that, but because I have to have it really crisp, I lay the strips out instead of dumping it in like that. It's all good, tho! 😋
It’s a classic! Just like the coachman🤘🏻
The good old days!!!
The noise that the stove makes brings back memories! I remember the white gas lanterns also that used mantels and were soo brite at the campsite!
Now i want some bacon!
Wow... the little movements of pumping and opening valves brought back memories of my Dad -- who I thought was a genius for knowing how to operate that thing and fix engines and grow a garden every year. Thanks Dave.
That was a nice trip down memory lane, and what a testament to Coleman and workmanship of yester year. Yum, I wish I had a B, L, T now. Made Bella happy. Pretty area. 🙂👍
That pumping sound brought back memories for sure. I loved my stove.
You had me at Bacon.
Priming the old Coleman😅👍. Give Bella a belly rub for us ❤🐕 Safe travels🫂
Fresh brewed coffee smells and taste the best outdoors!
Bella BEST PUPPY
Love these old stoves. They are so big! But they really work. I've had it for years. I think I bought it in a garage sale years ago.
I had the 3 burner version of that stove many years ago. Always worked great. Nice camping trip
Hi Dave!
Thanks for showing the Coleman Stove! I rescued two of them from the local dump - an 16 inch and an 18 inch. I want to try them out and this is a great primer! I have never used one of the gas stove like these, so it will be an adventure. They are in good overall shape - looks like they were barely used. I couldn’t believe my great fortune finding them! I have a #3 skillet like yours that I cook eggs in - I agree with you - Griswolds are my favorite too!
Don’t take my word for it but… “they” say you shouldn’t cook acidic (tomatoes) foods in cast iron or aluminum. SS has its place. BTW your old white gas stove is bringing back good old memories, thanks!
a 'stew pot' can be used for 'stew'.. a pound of hamburger, a cut up carrot, a diced small onion, a couple of potatoes, spices, a can of beef broth, or a spoonful of beef bouillon and water. or watever else you have on hand that you like. Or, turn a glass or metal bowl and placed upside down in the bottom of the pot, on top of the pot, put a pan or plate with biscuits on top, pre heat pot, put in biscuits and turn on medium heat, in approx. 15-20 min you should have baked biscuits, same as your little box oven, only it has a heat regulator. A pot of hot water is great for doing dishes, taking a sponge bath, etc.. a 'stew pot' is the most versalite pot to own except for your iron skillet.
Coleman products seem to last for many many years. I used to have an original metal like cooler that kept ice longer than any newer type cooler I’ve used. When you lite the camp oven I kept saying, “open the door” as I thought you’d left items inside that might get damaged. I do believe you’ll thoroughly enjoy that camp oven as you can basically cook anything in it. I’ve watched another UA-camr couple use one on a regular basis when they first started their channel tent camping across America. The young wife is quite an amazing cook. They also have a campfire dutch oven pot that they’ve used for cooking a whole bird as well as homemade pizza dough and a multitude of yummy looking pizzas. Looking forward to your summer adventures. 🏕
Hi Dave. Muffin pan good for 6 mini meatloaves .Cooks in 15 minutes.
Love the cooking gadgets! Bella is such a good girl!
Back when things were made to last. Love the stove and pot. Brown some meat and throw in canned vegs for stew.
I bake my bacon, the whole pack and it’s always ready for me. The P-trap might be clogged, take it off and clean it out. That might be why you have a slow drain. I love how green it is, seems so fresh. Bella’s so gentle taking her bacon 😊
Dave we have a old Coleman stove similar to yours it’s from 1965. From Ontario Canada 🇨🇦
I found an identical stove in a storage closet where I used to live I bought a propane conversion kit at WalMat (about $12.00) and it worked great. We cooked several meals at Yosemite and was very happy with it because there is no filling the gas tank nor pumping involved.
Have a good evening hug Bella Bella for me❤👋
GOOD MORNING BEST DAVE BELLA UA-cam CANADA ONTARIO VIDEO MISSISSAUGA TRANSIT 🇨🇦🇨🇦🍀🍀🍀🍃🍃🐕
I would've thought that the fuel would have turned to thinner much like gasoline does.
Cool!😎 Thumbs up!👍
So cool! I use to have one of those Coleman stoves. Never did get an oven. I’ve been thinking about it. I could smell the bacon! 😂 Thanks for the video ❤
Yep let’s get a farm camp trip in
I could smell that bacon! I like mine very crisp and dry, microwave between paper towels does the trick. We don't do bacon anymore, we're too old I guess.🤣🤣😂😂Nothing tastes the same since chemo anyway. I not only had the exact same stove and skillet(still in the garage 'cause it doesn't work on the glass top), but I also had the same stew pot. Really brought back the memories Dave. it was fun, thanks. 😁😁😎😎👍👍
Here for you.😊
Hi Dave and Bella! Those old Coleman stoves were built to last. ✌️👌👍
Great stuff right here
I had one like that. I loved that thing except for priming the tank, so I bought a propane stove.
I have a couple of these. Stopped needing them when I got an RV. Never seen anyone cook bacon like that lol! Just dump the whole package in as is.
Better keep that, Dave. You’ll be able to cook on that after they drop the bomb and the zombies take over, lol!
You could cook bacon in your Coleman oven.
good vid on you use the cooker keep up the good vids thanks lee
Had many meals off a Colman stove . This does bring back many memories of camping with Mom and dad , then many friends as I became an adult . I am glad you gave Bella a treat , not much just some , probably made her day . Like your oven and pot . I was thinking a big pot of goulash would be great in that , a meal for many days . Stay safe , have fun . Give Bella a rub for me.
That is a good Coleman still working 👍
I have always cut my package bacon in half, but to cook all at one time was interesting I must say🤔 thank you for video! Looks fun trying your old appliances again👍 I too have a lot & won’t part with cause you never know? I might need ? 👍 loved your video Dave!
Never seen anybody cook bacon like that!
Baking soda and vinegar works excellent on drains. Then follow up with hot water. I do it every few months.
The seals on those white gas camp stove pumps usually fail from disuse after a few years. Amazing yours still works! I have many fond memories of camping with my dad and him cooking bacon and eggs on a Coleman camp stove
I like mine crispy, please. 😋
Save your over cooked and/or curly bacon for your bacon bits… perfect! 🤤
Fish and chips on parchment paper in the pan for the oven.
That is one old stove!
Thanks for the trip down memory lane and camping equipment review btw Bella is adorable sniffing the bacon before crunch crunch
That pot looks great any more shine and you’ll have a mantle piece :)
Blessings
Try making Pigs-in-a-Blanket in your little oven.
❤Nice Video ❤
Been there, done that.
Muffin pan is good for mini egg, cheese, bacon etc breakfast servings
Ohh Bella she is not wanting😊🥓🥓🥓❤
Pick up a bundle of muffin papers will help cleanup on the muffin pan. P.S. UA-cam showed me a Weber grills commercial right after you flipped the bacon on your video.
I have a gas stove just like that! It was my Dad's. It's as old as I am. Built and purchased in the '60's! I'm breaking it out soon! My mom made some famous meals on it. I think that big pit uou have would work well for a pot roast! Cooked slow on low fir a few hours! Yummmmm
I also have that same food processor. I got it in the 90's when I had my 1st child. I used it to make baby food. Whatever we had for dinner, she had for dinner too (within reason).
I just put one of those camp ovens on my Amazon wish list! Lol
Can always make meat loafs in the muffin pan to Dave
With a little water in the bottom, I am sure you could use the pot like crock pot and cook a roast with potatoes and carrots and onions and other tasty produce. If you boil the potatoes a little first and cut the meat into small chunks, it would probably take about an hour. You could also use it to make stuffing or rice or anything else you can boil. At the same time, you could use the oven to make some cornbread or biscuits.
My parents had that same stove and oven.When things were made much better.
Dave add a few drops of very fine oil (something like sewing machine oil etc) to the inside of the plunger. Your rubber/leather cup pump gasket is dry.
I soak up the extra grease with a wad of paper towels held with a tong. I find it helps to cook the bacon quicker (not swimming in the excess grease) just remember if you are saving bacon grease for any other cooking remove with a large spoon before.🤭 Your little stove is an oldie, but a goodie!👍🏻🙏
You could make Lasagna
Wish I could smell the bacon😎
Dave not sure if you have used the oven yet but I find the temp does not stay consistent very well. I have used a small pizza stone or ceramic tile in mine to hold the heat better.
Fire Bricks work also
Corn on the cob in your kettle.
Are you going to give it a new paint job?
Dave on the gas tank on your Coleman camp stove, is the a hole in the plunger where you pump the pressure up? I used to have an even older camp stove than yours. The plunger on mine had a small hole in the center of the plunger that when you pulled the plunger out, you removed your thumb from covering the hole, allowing the plunger to suck air in. Then when you pushed the plunger back into the tank you covered the hole with your thumb keeping the pressure in the plunger/tank. It was hard to tell if that was what you were doing. I am a regular viewer and enjoy watching you keeping it real!
Make some potato soup in your pot
Wash them pie pans before using...... or u might be tasting glue cinnamon rolls lol
👍
Gotta ask..did Bella get more bacon, or did her master hog it all? Like the stove, I grew up around them...went on camping trips as a boy with my grandfather who loved to fish and carved his own lures from wood. Looks like a great, private and peaceful park. Didn't see anybody. Still wondering if you've considered making a homestead at one of your family's land. Can't stay at the garage, and can't stay young forever.
Meatloaf in your muffin pan
i cook my bacon with lots of honey
make popovers
Dave who taught you to cook bacon 😂
Does that CG have any hook ups? Electric or water?
Is that a COE CG?
My grandfather took my camping in the Allegheny Mountains when I was young. He cooked on a Coleman stove and only used cast iron- I miss those days! Thanks for the memory
Who opens bacon like that? 😂😂
The good old days!!!
