On the lookout for a car-camping stove. Something that deals well with wind and build like a brick shithouse (if that even exists anymore) would be excellent!

White gas Coleman stove is my strong recommendation.

Time tested, tried-and-true

A Camp Chef single burner would also be great if you have the space for a 5lbs propane tank.

[ExtraSlow]

Camp Chef is wicked. Larger and heavier though, and propane bottle is large and heavy as well. If your "car camping car" is a truck or a 1980's pedo-van, them, heck yeah budday.

[msommers]

I'll check those out, thanks guys.

Hey since we are on the topic, and you know know everything, is there an attachment for the camp-chef stoves that focuses the heat somehow for a smaller diameter pot?

I've been trying to find the same thing for boiling a kettle, and haven't seen anything yet. The only way would be a flat frying pan that just covers the wind guards, that you then put the pot on top of. Not the most efficient use of energy.

They sell a diffuser plate with thier dutuce oven that should work, but I don't think you can buy it separate. Honestly, a chunk of plate steel with some small holes or slits in them would work. Who wants to make a few and sell em to us campers? @gretz

Do up a drawing and I’ll rock some beyond logod ones

Apparently they do!

Edit: Although to be honest, I think I'd rather have one with a handle.

[ExtraSlow]

@gretz , I'm on it. I will email you drawings tomorrow when I have access to work napkins.

Use crayons or pastels please

We've been using a Primus Profile stove for well over a decade and it's bombproof with good wind protection. I prefer propane over white gas, easy to run off a 5lb or the 1lb green cylinders.

In for 2 beyond flame tamers.

Thanks man! I'll add it to my list

[ExtraSlow]

Yeah those small propane stoves like the primus or the canandian tire whatever brand are totally fine. I have a 40 year love affair with the green Coleman white gas stoves and I ain't stopping now. Although in my collection I also have the same green coleman stove in propane variant.

I am pretty sure we have one like this ... still think it is in the garage takin up space... let me look if anyone is interested...

[ExtraSlow]

I have two of the white-gas kind, and the one that looks identical but runs propane. I probably need one more to complete my collection.

you should definitely add a three-burner white-gas to it if you haven't already.

[ExtraSlow]

Are you selling one? PM me.
