That looks pretty good. It says that it runs on disposable propane canisters.

That's totally neat Would not only be great for camping but also if you lose power for an extended time due to a storm

....I just seen that same thing at the Army Navy Surplus on friday...I didn't catch the price though....They are on the list of "Be Prepared" items so they are becoming more available..

...They did carry that whole line of cooking equipment...What I was interested in finding they did have, 50 cal. ammo cans for $16 bucks @...Probably 30-40 of them..

That thing is sweet!

I've been wanting to get a portable propane stove for work lunches. Would be great to have a little barbecue in the parking lot instead of frozen lunches everyday. That one might be a little excessive though.

They generally don't regulate the temperature like a regular oven would, so cooking stuff in them is exceptionally difficult, especially if it's the least bit windy outside.

I'd stick with a simple propane stove top myself, or use a dutch oven... something tastes better when cinnamon rolls come out of a dutch oven which came out of a camp fire...

Or you can line a cardboard box with aluminum foil and put some hot coals underneath the open end and cook that way.

I promise it works and I am not just pulling your leg.

You can also use cardboard boxes to make a solar oven.
