cooking in the truck

Sometimes it's down to luck or experience together with google maps to find a good grocery store on your way. It became a science and rabid curiosity for me to find a great food store. With or without a trailer. I will scan an aerial view of the place just to get an idea of where to park.
There nothing of interest to me in the way of food in a trucks top but some of the states have fantastic supermarkets
if you're familiar with NY for instance I loved going to Buffalo to Wegmans just off the freeway. Unbelievable supermarket chain.i even managed to park behind Wegmans that's near Flemington NJ. No mean feat. I could lose myself for a long time in there and very easy to park the truck in many places.
IL, IN, OH has Meijers. Another great place to shop with plenty of parking. Each state has its good shopping spots and together with Sams and Costco you can't go wrong. But I think I'm just a tad more picky than most so I'm not gonna tolerate nasty food or fast food. You've just got to be motivated to look. Good luck

 

We have a coleman plug in cooler and it works good but have to replace it about 3x a year....as far as cooking goes..i have an electric skillet and a microwave....and a coffee pot(kwik trip has the best ground coffee ever!) it gets REALLY expensive if you buy the truckstop mud and isnt that good... I have tried one of those panini maker/grill....not very safe or versitlie.I burnt myself quite a few times before i chucked it! ..but with the skillet i can cook going down the road (as hubby drives). The possabilities are endless with a skillet and micro! NO NO NO! To the stove!! The safety hazzards arent w orth it!!

Man, this is the kind of cooking that would make trucking more than just an adventure!

I have one of those, and it's lasted me almost a year now without any signs of trouble. I replaced the outside fan with a larger one that I purchased at Radio Shack for $20. It provides more CFM and draws less current than the stock fan - and it keeps the interior cooler than it otherwise would be.

Sometimes the interior heat sink fins will ice up. I can tell by the noise that the interior fan makes when the ice starts hitting the blades. I simply defrost the cooler, dry it out and I'm back in business.

 

Yea that's Luke Vernon the Lori Driver. I've been following him for a while now.

Those Coleman fridges don't keep things cold. Just a little chilled. If you want to keep something cold, you should get a big cooler with a fresh supply of ice every day. Or you could try one those small fridges ( a fridge not a cooler ). Those fridges are small inside though. But buying that Coleman and expecting it to keep something cold in the summer is a joke. Compare and see that the Coleman doesn't get to a cold temperature.

 

Really? If I'm not careful, my food will freeze. I need to defrost it about once per week to get the ice off the internal heat sink. Maybe you're doing something wrong with yours, or perhaps you've never owned one?

 

I've actually owned two. I thought the first one was broken. The second one was the same. When all you have in the cooler is a pound of deli cut turkey, and it goes bad after three days, you would need something more than a cooler. The small fridge prolly would've kept it cold. On the box it says it will go down to 35 deg. Mines never did....
