You can't beat having an oven in a campervan !
I know I’m seriously thinking re build 🤓👍
@@BigVanSmallWorld hi Mel , seriously , having lived in a van for 18 years I wouldn't want to do without one. I use it every other day .
Great👍
jackery1000いいですね👍
これからの、jackery cooking楽しみです😉
Not cheap but works really well is the "ramoska" works really well used one for years.
Good on power too
Thank you yes I have used one in the past 👍
Well done...didn't think it was gonna cook
Thank you 🙏
Well done mate it looks good take care stay safe guys 👍🇬🇧🤓🌹
Thank you buddy and you 👍
great video Mel love the variety of your videos...... we too love our airfryer
Thank you that’s really kind of you 👍😊👍
Hi Mel I can smell that pie from here you need some chips with it LOL!!.
Thank you it was yummy I’ll try it with roasted potatoes next time 😂👍
Great video Mel. ive got a Lakeland Airfryer but havent thought about getting one for the Van we usually use a Romeska and also an induction protable hob we also have a 1000 Jackery and a 100 which we brought when you were doing your Blog on them and got a great disscount x
Thank you I used to have a Romeska it was brilliant not a bad idea to get one for the van you got me thinking now 👍😊👍🍻
Great video as always Mel 👍🏻
Thank you buddy 👍😊👍
LOVE AND RESPECT! MY BROTHER
Thank you 😊
Fantastic Mel. That pie looked delicious hope it tasted delicious too. You always bring us great content. Thanks Mel. Xx
Thank you Sue it was super yummy 😋 I’ll definitely get another one or two 😂👍
Great video Mel. Used to love a Fray Bentos pie, tinned new tatties and baked beans in the 80's. Love the blooper at the end 😀
Thank you buddy 👍😊👍
Gotta love a Frey Bentos 👍 so come on Mel spill the beans what’s the new camera ? Glasses look nice by the way 👍
Thank you buddy my camera is a Sony ZV E10 👍😊👍
Wonderful! Thoroughly enjoyed watching that, you really make me smile. I'm in the middle of a self conversion and I'm not having an oven, I've been considering an Omnia Oven to use on my gas stove but since I have a Jackery 1000 I will look into having an airfryer instead. Thanks for your cheerful video 👌✨😀
Thank you that’s very kind of you to say. An air fryer is definitely the best option it’s mind boggling how much it’s changed the way I cook in my van I can’t imagine how i survived without one 😂👍
Tremendous video Mel, lot of fun to watch 👏
Thank you 🙏
I stopped eating red meat 4 years ago , no regrets , loads of alternatives . Go for it ! 👍
Thank you for the encouragement 🙏
I drive a 44 toner , I can drive through the countryside waving 👋 and saying hi to all the animals with a clear conscience! 🙋♀️😂
Brilliant Mel including at the end 😂😂😂👏👏👏🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
Thank you for watching to the end 😊👍🍻
Easy as pie 🥧
Haha very good 👏👏👏👏
Spot on 👍
Thank you
I feel it would only be fair to try it once again but with a meat pie. Not bashing vegetarians ( would be too easy) but do like your comparison videos 😉🥓🥓🥓🥓🥓
Mmmm 😋 I think you could be rite there 👍😊👍🍻
Hi Mel, we have a coleman folding oven, it sits on the gas ring, now that is a great bit of kit, had it years, stay safe pal.
Sounds good 👍
Have you ever cooked a whole chicken in it?
Must say I do love a Fray Bentos pie, #1 fan in Medway
Thank you Neil 👍😊👍
Hi mel, I have been looking into why we all put Gas in our vans when everything can be done with a battery system and a solar panel alone, If you run out of gas you cannot cook so we are not truly self sufficient. Hmm not explained well but I know what I mean. Good video and air fryers should be used about 15 percent below a normal oven, 200 degrees becomes 170 ish and for a shorter time. Good video again mate.
Thank you buddy that’s really helpful 👍
Nice one Mel. However as a kid my grandma cooked us a Fray Bentos pie. We have no idea what happened but it didn’t cook properly. And since that day both my brother and I refuse to eat FB pies 🤪🤪
Well they have improved a lot over the years 😂👍
Hi Mel luckily we have a gas oven in our van and I have about 10 fry Bentos pies in my van
luv um
💙❤️
They do an all day breakfast one as well
Oh wow I’ll have to look for them 😂👍🍻
Great job Mel
You may want to make a foil sling for easier removal of cooked food
Linda in Texas
Thank you Linda that’s a brilliant idea 👍😊👍
Great review... I use my double skillet (the one that looks like two deepish frying pans which clip together, they sold them in the caravan shows 15+ years ago).
The base of the lower pan is filled/covered with flat beach pebbles.
Onto them I put a circular baking dish, sausages potatoes etc. And cover with the top pan.. I guess its a modified heat retaining dutch oven?
TBH never thought of a Fray Bentos as being a candidate though 10/10 for the idea.
Added advantage is that in the winter the stone pebbles radiate heat for quite a while after I turn off the heat.
Hope this clumsy post explains my method?
BTW I'm long term vegetarian and Richmond meat free sausages are the best I've found.
That’s a brilliant idea well done 👏 🤓👍🍻🍻
Hi Mel I think I will try becoming a "Vegetearism" LOL😁 Love your vids.
Thank you ☺️ 👍🍻
we use our air fryer all the time so impressed by what you can cook in it...
Isn't a air fryer a little oven?
Brilliant 👍
Yes basically a small fan oven I don’t know why they call them fryer 🤷♂️
Well done, Mel! You did it without getting too ‘frayed’ at the edges. 👍🥧🙏🇬🇧🙏
Haha thank you 😊
Mel, the Jackery charges quicker if you use a small inverter whilst driving (seen it on another channel) and I can confirm it does, I use a Bestek 300w pure sine wave inverter whilst driving for either the coolbox or Jackery and both work perfectly and the Jackery charges quicker
Thank you that’s really great advice 👍😊👍
I see somebody mentioned baking parchment, I would have maybe folded tin foil i to a strip so It goes up each side so you have a grab handle that then runs under the tin. Not bad though Mel, not sure about veg though mate lol
It was lush 👍😊👍
Be interesting to see how a slow cooker performs on that jackery
I was thinking about that too 👍
NO ! dont be a VEG !
We need MEAT !
Great vid the air fryer looks to cook great Enjoy !

lol cheers buddy 👍😊👍
I believe you are supposed to open the lid and then leave it on whlist cooking stops the top burning.
Oh I’ll try that next time thank you 👍😋👍
Hi Mel good for you for thinking of changing your eating habits, kind of. 😂 I've been Vegan for over 2 years after becoming more informed on the cruelty that is animal farming. Haven't looked back and no intention of changing back. Keep up the informative and often hilarious videos 👍
Thank you Ashley for the positive encouragement that’s really appreciated I’m slowly getting to be meat free and starting to feel the benefit already 👍😊👍
@@BigVanSmallWorld That's great Mel, it's definitely not easy to change a habit of a lifetime but it can be done. Research is the key with so much available these days on YT and the WWW.
OMG, FB pies, that's a blast from the past, I didn't realise that they were still around. Not sure if you can get them in New Zealand
Yep they are still going strong I’ll see if I can smuggle one out for you lol 😂
Gotta love your enthusiasm Mel! Liking the new 'bins' too.....
Here's a tip for the future, get some of that brown baking parchment , cut into strips and lay under the pie tin and up enough to grab them to pull out the pie when cooked..... you'll get what I mean . Have to try the balti as I've been a bit sadden by the quality of the the beef and kidney..... I'm sure they were far better back in the day when we lived in a cardboard box 📦 ha! p.s. I leaned into my phone when you showed the pie coming out! Like I was going to see it better !!! I must be losing it 🤪
Haha that’s brilliant and thanks for the tip 👍😊👍🍻
If fray bentos you have Mel is anything like their minced beef and onion the one I had was terrible couldn't find any meat that smellt good but the taste ugh!!
Try the veggie one like I did it’s oh so good 😋👍
You should trial a Ridgemonkey Mel! Not sure your Fray Bentos would fit though 😂
Don’t think it would fit n mine 👍
Uk's answer to Foresty Forest :)
I’ll take that 👍😂👍
good vid
Thank you 🙏
Mel, have you had a look at the NINJA FOODi cooking 🥘 setup. I suggest you have a ganda. Since have a Ninja FOODi & Ninja Grill, I’ve never used the oven now in over a year now. Please let me know what you think 💋
Looks amazing unfortunately it’s 1460wats so wouldn’t work with my 1000 wot power pack thanks anyway 👍😊👍
Looks like the air couldn't circulate enough? The tin needs to be stood on a small bowl to get pie nearer the heater element to make crust rise! Still looked nice😋😋😋
Thank you I’ll try that next time 👍😊👍
I used to make those pies. I would never eat one!
Well I must say thank you for all the pies and not eating them 👍😂👍
Hi Mel, another q of you'd be so kind! In a previous video you explained why your fan was offset. I've actually done mine in the middle across two ribs, and have the problem of a puddle. Do you have any ideas how to resolve?
I’m sorry I don’t 😞
Mel well impressed with the Air fryer no mess !
I’m not up on all this new technology but I’m liking the idea of it.
Oh ya and I can see your eyes you are human lol
Love your videos stay safe 👍👍👍😎
Thank you that’s really kind of you stay safe too 👍😊👍
Next week - Mel uses an induction ring to cook a Fray Bentos pie ! (just to see if it uses more power)
I don’t know about that 😂👍
Hi Mel well done on cooking the pie! I have a question, you stated you do not have a inverter in your van. So my question is what are the advantages/disadvantages between an inverter and a jackery power pack and also price between the two?
Great question I’ll give it some thought and get back to you on waffle on Wednesday 👍
@@BigVanSmallWorld The only disadvantages of something like the Jackery, are that a), the cost (imo) is very high for the items that are contained in the package, and b) you are stuck with the size of inverter that they choose to provide you with. This version is pretty good, being 1kW, but there might be times when having extra capacity is handy. Incidentally Mel, is the inverter in the Jackery 'pure sine', 'modified sine' or just generic 'wiggly line Chinese sine'?
Well done bud great video :) always look forward to your experiments ♥️
That’s amazing it’s cooked that with out using soo much power :)
I’ve seen that ridge monkey have made an extra deep one now you can use as an oven on top of your hobs bud :)
Always love the outtakes :)
Hope your well and having a lovely weekend 🤗🤗☺️
Thank you buddy and you too 👍😊👍🍻
Nice experiment. How have you cooked your stash of pies in the past ?
Upside down in a frying pan 👍😊👍
@@BigVanSmallWorld where’s there a will there’s a way haha.
Fun experiment. Can we expect more vegetarian cooking in a van videos? 😉
Thank you and absolutely 👍😋👍
I use an omnia oven
Nice 👍
Mel, did you ever try putting my 'metal box' oven on top of your hob? Have dropped you an email too. Phil
Hay Phil I’m really sorry it didn’t work out it wouldn’t get hot enough to cook anything just kinda dried things out but thank you so much for taking the time 👍😊👍
@@BigVanSmallWorld I wonder if it would work if you stuck it on the coals of a bbq, or the embers of a bonfire.
Wouldn't it be possible to have the engine on, the main starter battery connected to a big inverter and connect all that to an induction hob?
Not really sure if that would do your alternator any good
Another blinding video , would like to hear your thoughts on the EcoFlow River Portable Power Station, seems like a good power supply for a lot less money
Thank you if they would like to send me one I’ll be happy to review it 👍
The ecoflow is a much better option in my opinion and will also fully charge in under an hour and a half through mains power. Jackery do not recommend you to use the inverter while changing. I have a small 500 watt and only bought it as it went for £180 on eBay with an 80 w solar panel and was new. It's great for my needs. I've also built a system that my main battery's can charge it and potentially give it 3.5 KW of power. I also prefer lifepo4 over lithium Ion as it's a safer chemistry and will last 8x longer. Bluetti are bringing in a 700w model with a 700w / 1000w inverter and lifepo4 with fast charging and rumoured to be around £500 ( eb70) is the model. I'm sure Mel will be getting a review model soon👍 If your wanting to run a van full time I would say the ac200 is a good option but pricey. You can build your own much cheaper, especially if it died after the warranty period.
❤💙❤💙❤💙❤💙❤💙
an alternative maybe take the contents out of the tin and use a ridge monkey . All the best .
Ohh that’s a good idea 😊👍
Laaaadd!!!!!
Parchment paper!!!!!
I’ve no idea 🤷♂️ lol 😂
@@BigVanSmallWorld put it on baking tray under food. Makes cleanup easy doesn't burn. In air fryer push down for liner to make easy clean and easy removal of fried chicken...or veggies....I think sir fryer perfect for veggie life in van. Veggies in olive oil, spices,on paper in fryer..no mess good food.
What a great video Mel, glad you could enjoy a lovely dinner. We're glad our LW676 is living upto its job 😊.
(Hope you didn't eat all that pie to yourself 😉).
Thanks,
Shai
Haha thank you buddy for your support and the great products really outstanding thank you 👍😊👍
Good useful experiment! But the meal ewwww 😏😏 I hope you haven't broken your lil Cooker!
It’s all ok 👌
Absolutely love your video’s Mel 👍🏻!
What camera did you use for this video?
vlogging camera that I use Sony ZV E10 amzn.to/30MVJce
Just wondering, if a van has solar power or a generator, why do people still use gas instead of induction stoves and electric ovens?
Gas might be cheaper initially, but then would you not have ongoing costs
From my experience and knowledge you would need a huge electrical system costing between £2-3k to cope with the huge draw induction has on the system…
I spent over 2k on my system and I could use one small induction job which has a low power output for about 15mins max per use…you electrics won’t last long if you want to use that multiple times per day.
Gas is simple, cheap to have and refill and you never have to stress about not having enough power to cook or boil or a kettle.
I’m not saying it can’t be done - but you must budget for the capacity of power you are going to need if relying on induction for all your kitchen needs 👍🏻🚐🥧.
If you’re interested to know more. Comment back and ask Mel to make a video all about it x
@@SACREDTRAVELLER I see. Thanks for the info
Not sure about your new logo and merchandise, you have a medium wheel base van so not a BIG Van! If you had along wheel base maybe 😂
It’s in the pipe line I’m looking for an extra long wheel base 😊👍
It’s more of a metaphor for life. You can accomplish so much in a van so life is BIG. You can get to so many place also in a van - making the world seem smaller. Hence - BIG VAN SMALL WORLD x
I heard that Air Fryer Cooking time's are just over half the time of an ordinary Oven.
I’m not sure it seems to be working great 👍
Going vegetarian Mel … what no more bacon sandwiches.. .. I die !!!!
Lol I don’t eat bacon 🥓 😂👍
@@BigVanSmallWorld Oh Mel I could had sworn you would had been a bacon man .. all those greasy spoons being an ex trucker.. oh well I guess you’ll be on the Quorn stuff soon.. well you’re jackary work well with your new cooker .. a great result..!!!
Don't go over to the green side. You will be gluing your face to an euro3 van next?
Lol 😂
Remoska ...my error
No worries 😉
There's always blood when i open a Fray Bentos pie.
Lol it’s always a battle you just need a good tin opener don’t use an old one 👍😊👍
Mel!!well done fun!!!ha!! Check out the ninja foodie in the ...foresty forest...UA-cam videos! He's a pro at fun food in pressure,fryer....have fun!!!
Thank you Len and you 👍
Go watch how the Boondockers cooked a cake

I know this what I thought at first but oh my goodness me they are so good 👍😊👍
Fray Bentos pies = I feel sick
