CADAC Safari Chef 2 - what you get and do you really need to cook on the floor? Noooooo!

[@defshepherd9042]

Top tip from my mate who is a professional cooker cleaner DO NOT USE WATER use neat fairy liquid only to clean any grill that you use Let the fairy liquid soak into the item your cleaning scrub with cleaning pad then rinse off the neat fairy liquid with water

[@tanksontour]

Thanks for sharing I’ll try this next time we use the Cadac 👍

[@MagickCat1]

The drainpipe hack is sheer genius! I just bought one of these stoves. Looking forward to using it.

[@tanksontour]

Wow, thanks for the comment, very appreciated 👍 let us know how you get on please? Andy and Kim.

[@michaelpepper7230]

A great idea that I will add. My sons a plumber so out the side of the house is heaps of pipe. I've cooked for 6 on it big roast beef and veg but I have a large flange which fits pefect and give it a big height for a double rack oven. I also cooked dessert ( all sorts of different crumbles and baked cheesecakes) while we were cutting up and eating dinner. Pizzas are great even without the stone by the way.

[@tanksontour]

Catering for 6 😮 that’s very impressive. Spare pipe lying around is a very inexpensive way to sort this out. Hope it all works out for you. Andy.

What a great idea! Love a cheap hack to make a great gadget even better 😄

[@tanksontour]

Thanks for watching and the lovely comment. I do like a nice set of rigid poles to keep it off the floor! 😂 they keep your sausage further away from the grass!!!

[@CaravanningwiththeMrs]

Great video! That hack is comedy gold but so practical, love it! 😊

[@tanksontour]

Thanks for watching. I think it looks like something from a very famous series of films based in space!

[@stuartcox2785]

What great tips I was debating the bigger one with legs but with your ideas it’s much easier to store on the narrow boat.

[@tanksontour]

Hi Stuart. Thanks for watching and so pleased we could help with your decision.The newer QR versions appear a bit easier for connecting to gas too. Thanks again, Andy and Kim

[@stuartcox2785]

@@tanksontour do you by any chance remember the diameter of the pipe? No worries if not. Have a great Sunday love your videos

@@stuartcox2785 good luck in your search and sale and you’re most welcome. We love to help.

Adding water - genius, I've learnt something there that will save some cleaning time, thanks!

[@tanksontour]

Thanks for watching. Yes indeed a lightbulb moment for us!

[@Coffeevaners]

Fantastic. Thanks a lot. Just the video we wanted to get a proper idea of which of these in the range is going to suit us as a couple. So many videos of the massive one and cooking for the whole site. All we want is a breakfast for 2, some steaks for dinner a brew if we don't want to use the coffee maker. Really good video. like the leg hack as well, that's a fiver well spent. Will have to see what Ally thinks and that might just be on her next shopping list. Take it easy and stay safe. Alan

[@tanksontour]

Thanks for watching Alan and glad it's helped a bit with your choice. I cooked steaks and flat mushrooms on the flat plate yesterday, they came out really good, they colour up nice on the grill plate too. Cheers and all the best Andy.

[@Coffeevaners]

@@tanksontour Now then Andy & Kim - Guess what Ally has gone and ordered - only the very same Safari Chef 2. Thanks for the video. Really appreciated.

[@tanksontour]

Nice one, you'll both be really happy with it I'm sure. You need to order the £5 drainpipe now! Glad the video helped. Andy.

[@jurgens.9029]

Great idea to put some FloPlast Round Downpipes on it 👍👍👍

[@tanksontour]

Isn’t it! Do you have this Cadac and will you give this a go? Thanks for the lovely comment. Andy and Kim.

[@jurgens.9029]

No I wouldn‘t 😂

[@tanksontour]

Fair enough 😛

[@ispybeeper]

Nice video great hack, I’ve just put some pipe in my basket screwfix basket and I’m going to get some today, it’s £7.38 now still a bargain

[@tanksontour]

Ahhh cool, thanks for watching and the sub 👍. Do let us know how you get on. Price is up by a couple of pounds I see 🤦🏻‍♂️. Cheers. Andy and Kim.

[@bat502]

Looking for adapter to convert gas from hp to lp and use small bottles to screw direct to cadac. Have you seen one? Thanks

[@tanksontour]

Yes, the Cadac power pak does this, it takes the disposable canisters and has a built in regulator. Otherwise try this link here for ideas what to look for. Thanks for watching. Andy and Kim. www.cadacinternational.com/adapter-set-hp-to-lp/

[@melonieward7483]

I have ordered one

[@tanksontour]

Nice, we hope you enjoy and get loads of use from it. Thanks for watching and the comment. Andy and kim.

I got my cadac safari chef 2

[@tanksontour]

🤩 lovely - next stop Screwfix!? 😮

[@hayabusabart]

the drainpipe hack looks good.. but it would have been nice to see it in actual use.. I bet it wobbles all over the place !

[@tanksontour]

Hi, it is good and no, it doesn’t wobble. I have seen other remixes on various caravan/van forums on fb with leg upgrades. The only downfall I have of this is if any food falls from the grill, it’s straight on the ground rather than a table top. If you have this grill give this a go, it’s relatively inexpensive to do, I’m sure you won’t be disappointed. I’ll see if I can do an updated vlog using the legs. Thanks for watching and the comment. Andy and Kim.

[@hayabusabart]

@@tanksontour Hi Andy. Looking at the video again I can see now that you have put a slot in the top of the tube which engages with the body of the Cadac thus locating it to avoid rotation and wobble etc.. well done! It would be great to see a video of it being assembled and actually being used. Also it would be good if you could attach a dimensioned sketch of the pipe (guessing its standard 65mm diameter rainwater pipe) with overall cutting sizes, slot size and lower slash angle etc?

[@tanksontour]

@@hayabusabart I’m struggling with internet at the moment, we’re currently away. I’ll describe more of what you’re seeing, it may not be 100% clear by what you’re saying. We’re back home tomorrow (today is 30th November 2024) and I’ll trust my internet more when we get back. Is your name BART btw? Cheers. Andy.

[@tanksontour]

Okay, back home now. Here's a link for the pipe I used here - www.screwfix.com/p/floplast-downpipe-68mm-x-2-5m-black/25256 - not an affiliated link as in the description. This is cut into 3 equal parts, make the first cut at an angle (of your choice really), I'd guess at around 10-20 degrees, this first cut is the bottom of two legs. The next cut would be a 'square' cut which will be the top of the second leg. With the remaining piece just reproduce the same angled 1st cut. You could make the cut more acute so when used on grass, the pip could be 'stabbed' into the ground if required. Each leg will be approximately 800mm long. There is no other cutting to do as the pipe fits over the CADAC leg and into the side clearance grooves to the sides of the CADAC leg. I hope this clears up everything, but if you have any more questions, please ask away. Cheers. Andy.

[@shack_jen]

Great Vlog, we have been discussing which one to go for ourselves and I think you have made our mind up. Geat hack by the way using drain pipes fro legs! Please take a look at our new channel let us know what you think.

[@tanksontour]

Thanks for the sub, watch and comment Darren (Darran?) and Jenifer 😉. We’ve also subbed. By the looks of things (your 2nd video) you already know what the larger ones are like? We love this one and will cook quite happily for two but up to 4 people too. Thanks again. Andy and Kim.
