I need a new 2 burner cmping stove. I had a Partner Stove that I regretfully sold and am hoping not to lay out that much coin again but will if I have to. I have been reading online reviews of Coleman, Camp Chef, etc and they are all over the place.
Is anybody in love with their camp stove? If so, what are you cooking with?
Thanks

I don't have any personal favorite. I often go backpacking, so I just have a little camp fire stove setup I bought many years ago.

But with the Cybertruck, for more traditional one campsite camping, you have an easy option for electric cooking. I will probably take an induction cooktop with me for certain occasions.

And under the bed I can just fill that up with ice to keep drinks and meat cold. Saves me from needing an entire cooler. I don't know how insulated that storage area will be but I imagine i'll get 1-2 days before it all melts.

That's probably about as loaded question as which car do you want.

It truly depends on your camping and needs.

The ubiquitous Colemand camper has cooked many meals and will cook many more. The white fuel is readily available and it's an awesome solution.

There are the propane stoves out there today that are much easier to start and operate than the Colemand. There's no need to keep pumping the tank on a propane stove. But while propane is readily available, carrying the containers and disposing of them can be more problematic.

If you are serious about cooking and have room to carry, some of the standalone grills on legs can whip up a meal for a troop of scouts easily.

We tow a polydrop teardrop trailer originally using a Coleman two burner propane. We switched to a two burner induction stove top, much easier and with an electric truck will be adding more appliances. Krueger, air fryer etc

Propane stove do not work well in cold temperatures.
You just need to not exceed the thermal transfer of the tank and freeze the regulator like I do with my generator. You can do this by sizing up the tank, sizing down the burners, or heating the tank in some way.

It's going to keep boiling off into usable fuel as long as it's above -40F.

I’ve been using my Camp Chef Everest 2X for about 3 years now. It’s a great stove! I’ve used it about once a week for that entire period and never had any issues. The wind reflectors on the side do a great job to block the wind even when it’s extremely windy. The burners can get HOT! All you need is the low/medium setting. But now that I have the cybertruck I probably will be switching to an induction cooktop. But if you wanna lug around a propane tank I highly recommend the Everest.

Induction has worked well camping for me, but I still bring propane and a suitcase style coleman just in case. Though, I do prefer the induction. It just heats so much faster outside in just about any weather, especially windy and cold weather. I keep my solar panels out and the energy lost is negligible unless you're cooking for a huge group or all day. Though I will say that having the propane backup has been nice when the 2 burner induction is already in use.

Did we agree on the best two element induction cooktop?
