hi guys

we have been hitting the camping alot lately and i am in the proccess of buying a camper trailer as well, hence things getting sold.

we are just about sick of the old boring snags and steak on the bbq, even though they are nice, some differant things to mix it up a bit dont hurt.

you are not aloud to have open fires at alot of camp sites so we looked into other options for cooking in the cast iron camp ovens using gas.

it started with me cutting a 60ltr drum up and mounting the cast iron 3 ring burner in the inside, shelf in the middle and the lid on top to create a oven.....

well this worked a treat and we have been cooking bread, pizzas, roast lamb, pork, even roast chicken and has all come out perfect.

then the other day while looking in a camping shop we spotto these smokers!!, a couple of small mods to fit the 3 ring burner and we now have a 2 shelfed oven and boy does it work a treat.

in the pics you can see you can use it as a 1 shelf or 2, or you can put a bbq plate on top and cook snags and steak, we had pizzas in it last night, 2 at a time and im sure carl (crushed) can vouch for how good they come out.

i have a roast lamb and veges in atm while typing this.

so its 5 star camping for us now with the sky the limit for whatever we want to cook and put a nice smell through the camp sites, im sure a few people are already doing simalar things but this is so simple and it works exellent.

would love to see other ideas as well.

cheers ron
