    They should reward you. I wrote an email to them a few months ago when I purchased mine, and told them that you were the youtuber that recommended it.

      Oh well thank you! I don’t necessarily need a reward I just like sharing things that I know are good quality so that others are doing the same things that I am doing can really enjoy them. But I appreciate you so much more than you even know.

      No I typically don’t share the interior of basecamp except for whenever I am shooting things like this.

    Cool recipes! I love to do garlic toast with mozzarella and provolone cheeses and sliced Roma tomato and shredded basil. Super yummy grown-up grilled cheese. The Ridge Monkey cookers look so cool! I looked and they are out of stock. I’m going to be checking back and hopefully they restock soon. I’m not a van-dweller, but I do travel a lot and I like to beach camp. Definitely want to add this to my travel kit to expand my Eureka camp stove.

      I had a friend who used to make grilled cheese that way and they were actually pretty delicious. Also sometimes whenever I make meat I do slather it in mayo versus butter because it does hold in the moisture of the meat better. Great substitute

    Have you ever tried the combination flour and corn tortillas? HEB has them in central Texas so hopefully they also stock them up in Baja Oklahoma at base camp. They taste mostly of corn but are more flexible and less likely to tear.

    • @BunnyPlaysHere
      @BunnyPlaysHere  2 роки тому

      Yes I have. A lot of times I’ll stick to one or the other however I will rotate upon occasion. Some of my friends cannot have corn tortillas so I also take that in consideration depending on who I am eating with

      If she doesn’t have a table that’s portable all should have to do is set it just inside the door covered by the awning. The stove that she uses we can use inside :-) what song is this cancellation so she could even do it with the door shut long as she has a vent window cracked open a little. That’s what’s so great about the newer camp stoves!

    Bunny, You have me sold on the ridge monkey 🙈
    I’ve been watching you use yours for awhile and have been intrigued. With the bigger one that you have, the one that has the different compartments, do you think that would be big enough to make two servings at a time? For 2 people? I love that it has the different compartments because that would mean less pots and pans in my van when my hubby joins me every once in a while
    By the way I just wanted to say I love when you do these types of videos! It’s really helpful for those of us who do it part time for now to see what Someone who does it full for time uses and how the use the things🥰

    question for you... could you put a bit of water in with the butter so that the potatoes steam? does it seal well enough? After the water has evaporated, the butter then fries the potatoes? I do that with pierogies and it works well ...would it work for your potatoes?

      I personally have not used on an induction cooktop so I do not want to give any kind of wrong information on this.

      Sandwich style cookers yes however this particular model is not available in the United States so when I found it it was incredible. It really does function better than the average sandwich maker because of the way it is designed.
