a level of comfort and convenience similar to what they'd enjoy at home.
A K A > Glamping. I am all for certain creature comforts. I recall one comment of a guy who did a trek, his words were "We took way to much ***t with us, and if we pumped our tyres up the hiway fuel economy improved''. As stated, once, I took cast iron with, in a camper trailer it tared near 1Ton, I never was game to weigh it loaded, once it was rolling it towed ace one just a bit slow off the start. Been there done that, and reverse evolution is cutting the weight and bulk.
If that includes cooking the perfect steak on my Weber
Back in late 1986 early 1987, I met a Greek man, who taught me how to cook steak. He did it on those little break your back leaning over mongrel plate bbq things at Queen Mary Falls. You may be familiar with the area. It was Rump steak too. [ the technique shall remain a secret ] [ there has to be an element of mystique ]
I am not knocking you for the Webber, nor anyone, Fire is a wonderful medium to cook with, this is my opinion, and I do knock myself out cooking with it. Understanding what type of wood, when to light it, how far down to let it burn, how much to burn separately from the coals you want to cook with.
While on walkabout, in a certain western QLD town, a camp oven meal was ''put on'' for the tourists. Well that was B & S it was all cooked off site then kept hot next to a trench of Gidyea coals. 16 hours later all I did was rake the coals over no extra fire was lit, did roast an 5 veg to rival the previous nights warm up.
On walkabout, I do not aim to make 1000klm each day over 7 to 10 days... I may only achieve 5000Klm over 3 weeks, part of my ideology is to take the time to see this big brown land, take the time to light a fire and cook, I enjoy myself, and have lots of memories. I learnt to laugh at myself first, so yes, I will bring out the shovel, dig a hole next to your webber and cook my steak on my shovel, you will remember ''that guy'' cooking on a shovel.
