You could even supplement it with our preferred plancha to work across both burners simultaneously - making a full British breakfast very doable. The separately adjustable burners will boil a litre of water in just four and a half minutes and its side screens mean the wind will be kept at bay when cooking outside. It comes equipped with a removable drip tray and a griddle plate that will toast bread, melt cheese or even fry up a steak. It is a solidly built unit, designed to last and will allow you to indulge in gourmet cooking en plein air. Equally, if you don’t want to be carrying large gas bottles around with you then a Primus Tupike Stove could fit the bill. Given all of the above, we reckon if you don’t have built-in cooking facilities you will definitely want to go for a sturdy, durable double burner set-up. As for combination cooking, that’s often a case of browning certain cuts of meat and then cooking them on a stovetop without completely immersing them in liquid, a process also known as braising. Wet heat will be boiling up pasta, making soups, stews, sauces and anything where liquid covers the ingredients. Ideally, you want to be able to use the three principal cooking methods: dry heat, moist heat and a combination of the two.ĭry heat in a campervan scenario is primarily going to be some variation of pan-frying or potentially even baking. Sure, it can be done, but the trick is to do it using the minimum amount of energy while retaining maximum cooking flexibility. The best advice, however, is to not get stuck in the first place by parking your driven wheels on the mats whenever you stop in slippery conditions.Įnjoying hot food while out in the wild is one of the great pleasures, but also one of the biggest challenges for campervan owners. The pair can also be quickly linked together if, for example, you have some traction on one side but not the other. Depending on the weight of your vehicle and the under-wheel surface, you might get away with lighter, flexible plastic options but for more heavy-duty situations these Milenco extra wide grip mats at 106cm in length and priced at £26.92 will be a lot cheaper than a recovery job. Campervans are heavy, so it may require more than a friendly passerby with a tow rope and a Ford Focus to get you going again.Ĭonsequently, most savvy owners carry grip mats to provide the driven wheels with additional traction in sticky situations. Whether it’s on wet grass, mud, sand, snow or a variety of other soft surfaces, the prospect of spinning your wheels and getting bogged down in a remote location is not an appealing one. Unless you plan to spend every night parked up on tarmac, you’re going to find yourself needing to make progress on a variety of surfaces that offer, let’s say, sub-optimal traction. A lower-priced, 6-inch version is available too.

That means no more low bridge and narrow country lane anxiety! If time is on your side, you can also opt for slower but more scenic routes which are still safe to use but will allow you to discover camping-related points of interest along your way.

Once the dimensional and weight details of your vehicle have been uploaded, the device will take them into account before finding the most appropriate and time-efficient route to your destination. The TomTom Campervan Sat Nav GO Camper Max 7' HD is specifically designed to meet the needs of campervan and motorhome drivers. A satnav’s, a satnav, and I don’t need one for my campervan anyway when I’ve got navigation on my phone, right? Wrong! If your vehicle is over a certain height, weight or width, then a satnav that sends you and your pride and joy on routes which turn out to be a one-way ticket to the body repair shop is worse than useless - it’s dangerous and potentially very hazardous to your wallet, to boot.
