Hunting

Hunting season, what a great time of the year. Preparations have probably already begun. Checklists made, the perfect spot scoped out, guns cleaned and bows ready. With the excitement of the hunt, it's important not to let base camp take a back seat.

You will be returning there every night after a long day out on the hunt. Coming 'home' to a nice hearty hot meal and comfortable sleeping quarters will go a long way to making it an enjoyable hunt.

No one wants to come back to a meal cooked on a small camp stove that barely tickles your taste buds. You want a mouth watering meal that satisfies your hunger after a long day.  Camp Chef's modular cooking systems provide the perfect camp kitchen. Everything from pancakes in the morning to roast and potatoes after the hunt.

"I recently used the 2 burner stove and the Ultimate Turkey Roaster to cook in the middle of the woods in the southern tier of New York state. We had spent some time hunting for deer and I agreed to come out to cook lunch. Can you imagine the faces of the guys when they had a twelve pound turkey with potatoes and gravy to eat?"
- J. Jones

Eat. Sleep. Hunt.

When it comes to hunting with a group, the Camp Chef Pro 90 - 3 Burner Stove can handle the pressure.  Cooking up first-rate food during a hunt can keep everyone in good spirits after a long day on the trail.  Like most activities, if the food is good, the experience is good.  Everyone remembers that hunting trip three years ago when uncle Jake grilled those amazing steaks in that special barbecue sauce that no one can seem to repeat.

Traditional sausage, bacon, egg and pancake breakfasts are just as easy as throwing one of our smooth patina griddles onto your Pro 90.  For lunch and dinner, may we suggest our pre-seasoned cast iron reversible grills for frying up a roast beef sandwhich or barbecue chicken breasts.

What are you going to do with all that meat?

Here's an idea.  Smoke it.  We promise that no food will ever taste better than when it is smoked to perfection.  Camp Chef has teamed up with Browning to create extremely roomy 18" and 24" smoke vaults that are perfect for locking flavor into your freshly hunted meat.  Excellent for cooking anything from pheasant or fish to steak or ribs, the smoke vault cannot be beat when it comes to flavor.  We have even smoked baked potatoes and stuffed peppers in the smoke vaults. 

Venison Vic, one of our Pro Staffers, recently sent us an email with his review of our smoke vaults.  We posted his email, which also included a simple but flavorful way to smoke venison, on our blog.  Several other Pro Staffers have weighed in with recipes and cooking ideas using the smoke vault on our blog as well.

The Original Two Burner Propane Stove

If your hunting group is smaller or you want a simple and effecient camp stove, the Camp Chef Explorer is the answer.  This stove is easily portable with removable legs to save space.  Featuring two 30,000 BTU/hr commercial burners, the Explorer packs a punch with plenty of heat.

An array of accessories are available to make this stove all the more functional.  Griddles, grill boxes, cast iron cookware, carry bags and shelves can easily turn this stove into a completely outfitted hunting kitchen.

Part of Camp Chef's original product line, the Explorer has passed the test of time.  It is preferred by family campers, hunters and scout groups alike.  More recently, the stove has become a must have necessity for emergency preparedness.
