For years we used the engine as a hot plate..
Wrap a roast and some taters, onions and carrots in heavy foil, drive a few hundred miles or idle for a few hours and have a fine meal.

Realized new drivers may never know about doing this and be stuck eating inside if they dont have a microwave or apu.

I never had a problem with fumes or bad taste as one driver mentioned, some things go on the manifold, some on top of the engine. Temp control

I know of one lady trucker that made the best cornbread I have ever tasted in a foil covered cast iron skillet.

Weekends at a truck stop were a reason to celebrate as everyone ponied up something and we feasted like kings..

This in part helped us bond. Now everyone blacks out their windows and hides inside with a generator running and never come out.

Anybody got any stories or recipes??
