First, I'm assuming you're talking about an RV, not a trailer?


RV= Recreational Vehicle
trailer (travel trailer)= RV
therefore, the trailer is a RV

swap out your cooktop with gimbaled marine galley version with pot holders. Boats of all sizes cook while underway.

I use a Dutch oven in the oven. I prop a camera mono-pod from the door to the base of the cupboard opposite. Works like a hot **** and after a 5 hour drive? A nice slow cooked anything tastes mighty fine.

We tend to use the old 'common sense rule'.

Course we have a 5th wheel so we don't get to vote.

Hi,

I use a crock pot in the sink with its own little seat belt.

Try it if you want to, I would never try to cook while on the road, too many things could go wrong not to mention someone getting hurt,or a big mess in the RV.

Cooking while driving???

Depends on how close the stove is to the drivers seat.

I'd feel comfy cooking whilst cooking in a motor home or camper truck but not in a TT. Prolly too attuned with my senses. I'd use a sink swathed in towels for a crockpot or timer shut offed pressure cooker if I had one of the former.

No problem. We've washed, dried and cooked while in motion. We are still alive and drivin'.

I'd say go for it with some care and consideration about what is in the oven. Baked potatoes for instance would be pretty safe; they may roll around some, but that's about it. On the other hand, I have a hard time baking a pie in the oven in my house without making a mess inside, and that oven definitely isn't moving around much.

A crock pot or rice cooker reasonably secured (in the sink is a good way) is also reasonable in my opinion, as are some things in a microwave. I would not do anything on the stovetop, nor many prep activities, particularly those involving sharp instruments. Basically, exercise some common sense.
