- doxiemom11Explorer IINormal pots and pans. Only time I have a problem is if I want to use both of my large frying pans on the 3 burner stove. Otherwise all fits fine.
- korbeExplorerThe pots and pans on the stove are typical. But the oven is a little different. We pick blackberries for pies and found a stone helps distribute the heat better.
- past-MIdirectorExplorerUse a pizza stone in the oven and DW bakes bread, cookies, biscuits, corn bread, 12# turkey just about any thing she did at home. On the top burners we use non-stick pans, made spaghetti homemade sauce with meatballs and boiled the noodles no problem, and just about anything else at home including using 50 year old cast iron skillet for make real good homemade sausage and gravy!
We have a microwave/convection that does not get a lot of use but the Weber Q100 grill get as much as the stove from cooking bacon to steaks when the weather is nice! - Jim_ShoeExplorer IIMy galley has a microwave mounted above the stove top that has a vent fan mounted below it. Initially, my oven had two settings - "Off" and "Burn". On the lower rack, I lined up 3 9"x9" unglazed tiles down the middle which spreads the heat around. Better than nothing, but just barely. An oven thermometer lives there too. I found that the knob settings are fiction. I use the oven for a casserole sometimes, but mostly, just storage.
- Dottie5ExplorerThanks all! I was going to buy a couple of small Circulan anodized pans at Costco but thought I'd see if there was anything that worked better.
I already bought a small Keurig for coffee. I figure that would cut down on leftover coffee in a pot and the filter and grounds. I don't use a keurig in the house so thought I'd have this special for the TT. Got it for a steal at Kohls with a 30% coupon off the already reduced sale price. - fla-gypsyExplorerWe bought an small set of inexpensive pots and pans that appeared to be made well. They have served us for 8 years with no issues

They do ok. I bake potatoes and cookies and never have a problem with enough heat. Water boils just fine on a small gas stove.
I would assume don't have a huge amount of BTUs when on.
The only thing I find special is that cookware has to be a bit smaller if you want to put more than 1 pan on the stove. - camperpaulExplorerIt depends on what I'm cooking and the time of the year.
- Baking is done in the oven or in the Webber® grill.
Try using a pizza stone in the Webber® - works great. - Water for tea or coffee is heated on the stove or an electric hot plate.
I use a French press for coffee. - Some cooking is done in a 8" cast iron skillet on the stove or on the hot plate.
- A lot of things get cooked in my electric pressure cooker.
It doubles as a slow cooker.
BTW:
The Vesuvius effect is real ...
To avoid it, when heating water in the µwave oven for instant coffee, put the instant coffee powder/crystals in the cup first, add the water, stir and then heat it in the µwave oven. - Baking is done in the oven or in the Webber® grill.
- robsouthExplorer IIYears ago, we bought a new set of cookware for the house and took the old house cookware to the camper. It remains until this day and is used often. Those little stoves cook great and once you "learn" your oven, it does too. Would not consider being without either.
- donn0128Explorer IILast spring we bought a set of Cuisinart pots/pans from Kohls and DW loves them. But then again we outfitted our trailer just like at home. Same silverware, knives, dishes, glasses etc. That way no matter where we are we are at home.
