Open flame cooking stove inside your truck?

I have an electric skillet, convection oven, and microwave. I run it all on a 2000w inverter. I don't eat in the truck stops. I have my choice of steaks chops or what ever I like that week.

 

If you don't have an inverter, I bought a little camp stove that used butane and it worked well. Just wanna keep the windows open and a fan on to be safe

 

Get yourself a gas grill and park next to @bzinger . He likes it.

Only if you're making corn dogs! lol

 

I carried a little baby Hibachi, like a rectangle grill, with me when I was on the roam. Not so much just for a nightly stop, but a 34, or heck yea.

 

Hi Thatonenewguy- you have a fridge-excellent.You can keep cold cuts n meats.Back in the day,we used to ring o rocks campfire at night-but-thats not allowed anymore,so i carry the little 10$ charcoal grill.Straps on the deck w/the 10$ lawn chair.I keep a bag of charcoal n lighter fluid under the bunk.
It's amazingly easy to cook just like home when your on the road.I stop once a week n restock.Just start doing it,youll get into a pattern n it's fun.
I would get fellow truckers to join in,parked in the back row,all doing our 34's-they'd see me sitting in a lawn chair w/my feet up,having a cold one w/chicken on the grill.We'd all chip in n cook more.I asked the guys, dont complain about not being home-missing home cooked meals,,,,,,,,,,,this is your home-make the best of it-it's not expensive.
Cook on.

 

Makes him pee!
The excitement is that overwhelming.

 

Install a good quality inverter and run an electric skillet. Or get a camping gas stove. And do your cooking on the catwalk or on a small folks up table. I wouldn't advice open flame cooking inside the truck.

 

When I was OTR I used a 12v lunchbox stove, it takes a bit but you can cook about anything in it. For example Eggs take about 20min, but I saved a fortune compared to eating out 3 meals a day.
Once I had an APU I used a microwave.
Overall the only times I really ate "truckstop food" was when I was at an independent with a great salad bar, or I would hit a buffet once when I was taking my 34.
