stove for the camp

[6.5x55swm]

We need an indoor cooking stove for our camp. Just came back from Costco and they had a 'Camp Chef Expedition 3X', but was for outdoors use only. Any suggestions on what to buy for our camp??

We use the same in our camp but inthe cook shack setup. Used this stove inside the wall tent during sledding season in the mountains.

We have a propane range in our camp. Pilot lights need a lot of attention every year.

Not sure what type of camp you have, tent or permanent structure.

When we had our tent camp for moose hunting we used a 3 burner propane portable for cooking. In our permanent structure camp we have a full size propane gas range with 5 burners and a nice big oven.

In both camps we heat with a wood stove. Light weight sheet metal one in the tent. And a big honkin heavy steel plate brick lined one in the permanent camp.

Canadiantire has a nice dual oven/cooktop propane unit on sale this week.

it's a permanent structure, we heat with wood, 16x20

I think now-a-days any propane or white gas stove is going to be deemed outdoors only.
Unless you shroud it in and huddle around it, I don't think anyone will die from carbon monoxide poisoning.

We have been using a good ole white gas Coleman for the past 5 or 6 seasons in the wall tent at moose camp. The white gas is more versatile than bottled propane, performs better in the cold and we find it better for packing around.

The draw back to a white gas stove over propane is the genorator or an o-ring can calf on you but if you keep spares it's not an issue.

I'd get a propane stove or a propane burner unit. Maybe look at one from a camper trailer if space is limited.

Small propane stove with oven, or look for a unit out of a RV. As with all gas appliances keep them clean.

Then for simplicity, I'd cook with a wood fired stove too. (And, yeah, I've got a Luddite tendency that I indulge. )

Of course it's better outside , but the amount of carbon monoxide off a propane stove is so small, there's no problem operating a camp stove indoors.

I operate a Mr. Heater catalytic heater indoors, if you want to talk about something that throws off some serious CO, that's it. But even that is fine, as long as you respect the ventilation requirements.

I hate liquid fuel stoves, lanterns etc...
