Do I have to say goodbye to my outside stove?

[mnmbeck]

We always cook outside when we are out in the PU. We are now upgrading to a HTT, and I see there is no longer any such thing as an outside mounted stove. (only the RVQ).
The HTT we are buying has a mounting strip and hookup for the grill it provides, but we want a stove. If I buy a camp stove, is there a way to hook it up to the existing gas hookup outside? Do I need some sort of a gas adapter to make it work?
We realize we won't probably find a stove to hang from the side of the camper, but would really like to be able to use the existing gas hookup and not have to carry yet another propane tank! (or those little green ones).

Dont trade it! Your pup probably had a high pressure outside gas line....not a low pressure one like your TT. My camper is supposed to be ready tomorrow, but we have not heard a single word...no estimate, no confirmation that it is door, or that they found the source of the leak. I will let you know as soon as I hear. The stove was one of the things they were supposed to be able to solve for me.

While I was there, I asked about outside, 'low pressure' stove that could attach to our Roo (even thought I have been told that it doesn't exist). They said that Rockwood gives the option of a grill or stovetop when you buy new. She actually HAD a 3 burner stove (low pressure) to attach to the outside of the Roo in stock!!! She wasn't sure if it would be too heavy, though. Anyway....this may be the answer we were looking for. OUTSIDE cooking that can attach to the OUTSIDE gas hookup on the side of the trailer!!! I don't even care if it doesn't attach to the strip....we can put it on a table next to the trailer. I just wanted something I could hook into the existing gas that was meant for the outside grill! I'll let you know if it's too good to be true!

Well? It's been a couple of weeks. Any news? I'm one of those who would also prefer to cook on a STOVE outside, using the supplied propane line. I sure miss the stove we had in the pup - tried the RVQue for several years with the Roo, but finally tired of that. Now with my new TT, I haven't even hooked up the RVQue and prefer to leave it at home - better yet, find someone with a pup who wants one and will exchange their exterior stove in return! 🙂

We use a tee on the hose from the quick connect to run a BBQ and an outdoor cooker like this, just take off the hose and regulator and install a plain hose with a quick connect... http://www.amazon.ca/King-Kooker-CS42-Portable-Triple-Burner/dp/B001KFO31G/ref=sr_1_4/190-3597435-00...

Our HTT came with a factory installed outside twin burner stove we use 90% of the time. Great place to let the kids learn to cook. We also use a single burner screw on top of bottle stove at the table outside.

Look at the camp chef three burner stove and grill that goes on it. It will hook into a gas connection that is meant for the rvq.

Sweet! Glad you found one. We had the option of moving the inside gas stove outside on our Coleman popup and using the quick connect fitting on the side.

We told the dealer to keep the grill when we bought ours - have a good grill already. If I knew a stove might be an option, I would have tried for it. Could come in handy at times.

I have been camping since 1978 at age 3. Every type of pup, class C, trailers, airstream, Class A DP, to Prevosts. My family: tents, new pup, and used HTT. I concentrate on the activities: Mt bikes, canoes, jon boats, and bike trailers.

K.I.S.S Method. Coleman exponent kitchen going strong for 8th season. The rvq rocking on side, coleman skillet on the exponent. Bacon, pancakes, scrambled eggs for a group, and fish fries on that standalone skillet. RvQ; tons of burgers, steaks, shish kabobs, chicken breast, pork roasts. Inside: spaghetti, sauce, mac n cheese, veges, and eggs. Tons of good times, who cares about campfires, or fancy screen rooms!

Yeah, only options really are coleman stoves propane or gas. Cooking inside is easy to do, no flipping sinks, its a depreciating asset. We cook, shower, kids spill, you name it, and it has happened on ours.
