If you’re a van traveler, you know how important it is to be able to cook healthy and varied dishes during your adventures on the road. Fortunately, there are many options for portable gas burners to camperize your van and enjoy the outdoor cooking experience.
How to choose the ideal gas stove for you?
Before deciding which gas burner is right for you, there are a few things to keep in mind. First, evaluate what type of meals you want to prepare and for how many people. There are single-burner models that are ideal for preparing breakfast and basic dishes such as steak frites. The size of the cooktop will affect the time it takes for dishes to cook, so keep this in mind when choosing. Also keep in mind that greater burner size and power will mean higher consumption and expense.
Portable stoves are inexpensive and do not require approval, making them ideal for van travelers. However, if you want to install a permanent gas stove in your van, you will need to obtain an approval and meet other requirements.
How do portable gas stoves work?
Portable gas burners operate with gas cylinders. It is important that you pay attention to the model of cylinder that the burner requires and if you can easily acquire them at your destinations. In addition, it is recommended that you carry several gas cylinders with you to avoid running out of gas. CP-250 gas cartridges are a good choice for travelers who do not require a long cooking time or a lot of cooking in general, as they are small and easy to use.
Once you have chosen the right gas burner for your needs, using it is simple. They work in the same way as any conventional gas stove, only they are portable. Check if the burner includes a lighter or if you will have to provide one or use matches or a lighter. Once switched on, use the push button to adjust the intensity according to what you are preparing.
