The leather gloves for cast iron pans is such a great tip!

[@Icutmetal]

Why does that need to be explained to people?

[@russellrlf]

Makes me want to reserve a camp spot for a few days. Thanks for sharing

[@KaneDoesOutdoors]

Thanks for the feedback!

[@karenbartlett4968]

I still have my Coleman 3 burner stove from when I was a kid. Absolutely love it.

[@jorymil]

Really like the blackened pasta pot! Instant street cred if you use it for home cooking, too! For me, aluminum foil is a big part of the equation: I can use it to cook stuff in the coals of the fire, for leftovers, or for whatever might come up.

[@PaEMT_FF9]

💯%. Grabbed a bunch of stainless steel spoons, knives and forks for free at the local thrift store dumpster. Soaked for a bit in bleach and are a Winner winner to eat a chicken dinner.

[@chuckrf1502]

Sensible setup, and simple. Thanks!

[@daleley7645]

Great setup! Everything does it's job and doesn't cost a lot. I like the gas stove better than propane,but to each their own.

[@TimAnnear_1961]

Great and informative video to help a newbie. I think I need to repack my chuck box and take out the kitchen sink, washing machine, rug and sofa.🤔

[@ljaysperspective1775]

Appreciate the realistic down to earth review on the basics of camping necessities. Enjoyed the vid. 👍

[@ladybugmom10]

I should have not watched this video. Now I want to go camping so bad. Lots of great tips! Thanks!

[@OutdoorTestKitchen]

Such a great set up!! thanks for some great ideas for a great camp kitchen!

[@tms1234567]

3mins in I already subbed. I like how you think and organise, a man after my own heart. Keep up the content.

[@KaneDoesOutdoors]

Thanks!

[@edgarduarte4094]

Great informative straight to the point video.

[@ZEVONLIN]

Good content! Now i want some Paasta!

[@sallychagolla8978]

Love the pasta pot for dishes!

[@Krokkfjord]

I use similar equipment since over 26 years and it's all what you need for a trip.

[@Goodzz]

Great setup and tips. Practical and affordable. Thank you..

[@travisp32]

Out of all the gear i like that damn T-shirt. "GTF OUTSIDE" . I dig it. My load out is very similar for car camping.

[@FishLordGabe]

Thanks for the vid, gave me a shopping list for the next camping trip lol

[@rogeralvarado6060]

Welding glass are really good too

[@BumblebeeAdventure]

Nice setup!!

[@collinsfriend1]

White gas has an advantage over propane in that it works fine in freezing temperature.

[@TrueBushwacker]

Good job Brother, lots of info👍

[@carlosjld82]

Hi Kane, nice system! Great video also, lots of information, right to the point. Lately I've been doing a lot of tent/car camping with the family and we have a very similar kitchen system. We use old regular plates/fork/knives, plastic plates, old regular sauce pot and cast iron pan. For coffee we have insulated mugs, the cheap ones, no brand name. Wine metal glasses and corkscrew (very important). I have also a Coleman stove and a plastic collapsible sink. And our most expensive item is a nice big cooler (our fridge). Cooking is one of the things we enjoy the most while camping (and before camping, all the prep). What are your favorite recipes/meals? Have you ever used those portable grill/fire pits? GTF Outside!

[@KaneDoesOutdoors]

Hi Carlos, thanks for the feedback! 100% Agree - especially the corkscrew. I've learned the hard way about that & always have one now but try to make sure we bring screw cap wine. It's just easier. No reason to buy camping specific cookware unless it solves a real issue. I can't stand weird little cutlery. I'd also rather use real cookware and not worry about the handle falling off! I haven't used portable fire pits, but it's on my list to try. I have some ideas for basic recipe videos - I keep that pretty simple too. Where are you based? hahah GTF Outside!

[@jorymil]

I did a little backyard fire pit stuff during the pandemic. It actually works pretty well for what it is!

[@markcanlas2331]

Watching from Philippines

[@arunagarwal3426]

how pragmatic, I'm tired of pretentious camping gear videos, this one is of my kind.

[@craigrobertson6082]

The good ole Coleman. Indestructible really.

[@KaneDoesOutdoors]

Definitely - but I’m a little strange… I like the smell of fuel.

[@YoYoFamsJourney]

Awesome! You’re all set for some epic campfire cooking, bro! Keep those flames alive and enjoy every moment. 🔥🏕💖

[@ronschreiber3635]

Great video Sir lots of info thank you

[@tracker5849]

Mmmm not sure what the boy was eating but that CRUNCH sold me

[@KaneDoesOutdoors]

I have camp french fries down to an art!

[@BionicOutdoorsman]

Good Job Man

[@charlierose7309]

Amen about the dishes... ugh! We use paper plates and then burn them... sooo easy!

[@jasonmeat7975]

Where did you get that shirt? It’s awesome.

[@rschmidt25]

Hello, loving this video. I am digging the yellow cutlery bag - do you possibly have a link?

[@KaneDoesOutdoors]

Try this link: a.co/d/4em4xjQ or search “2PCS Small Portable Tool Bag Tool Can-vas Storage Bag Multifunctional Clip-on Zipper Tool Bag Multi-Purpose Storage Organizer Zipper Bag” on amazon

[@garyschneider]

Great vid. Thanks

[@jamesschneider3828]

I miss my Coleman two burner, someone else must have too 😭 They stole my stove and my power tools but left much more expensive stuff behind. Criminals on drugs don't think things out. 😵

[@jeffmorris739]

Just a reminder, many national forests and parks, require a bear proof cooler. I have an Ozark Trail from Walmart.

[@rgauthier3094]

In Canada in out federal parks, you can’t leave your camp site without putting everything in your vehicle or trailer. I’ve learned to pack very light so I can put everything away when I leave the campsite.

[@MildTbI]

Great vid, but, wtf is a pasta pot?

[@KaneDoesOutdoors]

It’s a pot that you cook pasta in.

[@jorymil]

5-quart stainless steel pot with handles on the sides for pouring. Grocery stores usually have them cheap.

[@SalmondOutdoors]

Any idea where you picked up that metal spatula?

[@KaneDoesOutdoors]

My wife got it for me after I left one in an Air BnB. Must have been amazon, look up griddle spatula ✌

[@SalmondOutdoors]

@@KaneDoesOutdoors Sweet thanks man!

[@jessicacooper5472]

Oxo brand spatula, I picked one up at a thrift store and it’s by far my favorite spatula I’ve owned

[@Hellohaydeej]

What size plastic tote to carry it all?

[@KaneDoesOutdoors]

66qt/62L. It’s about 26” L x 16” W x 12 “ H

[@sheliawilson1146]

Aluminum foil!

[@KaneDoesOutdoors]

Did I forget that?

[@harrypierce1298]

DONT use metal spatulas and spoons on cast iron- youll destroy the seasoned coating. Use wood. I avoid plastic too. And NO STYROFOAM plates or plasic disposable cups.

[@KaneDoesOutdoors]

@@harrypierce1298 That exact pan has 25 years of hard use, metal on metal scraping, no issues. Eggs slide off of it. I can re-season a pan in about 3 minutes if needed, nothing complicated about it. Seasoning is just oil bonded to metal with high heat.

[@harrypierce1298]

Of course you can use metal utensils- by why have to keep re-seasoning? I have several OLD cast iron pans that I had to completely strip to bare metal and start over due to rust or food that hadn't been cleaned in years- just sitting in someone's camping gear that never got used or cleaned. IMO, and most people that use cast iron avoid metal utensils. But use what works for you. 😁

[@BrianKrienke]

I use metal on all of our cast iron. Works great. Metal is also much easier to clean than wood when camping. Lodge even recommends using chainmail to clean.

[@davesskillet9235]

Car camping is not the same as hiking so yes use the same things you use at home.

[@traciwhite7891]

Pass-ta pot?????😂😂😂

[@KaneDoesOutdoors]

Huh?

[@DntRepeat]

We haven't heard pasta pronounced like that before :D @@KaneDoesOutdoors

[@KaneDoesOutdoors]

Ahahaha I’m originally from Quebec and speak french fluently even though my first language is English. I think we accentuate our vowels differently.

[@Icutmetal]

@@DntRepeatWhy does that even need mentioned? What are you trying to accomplish?

[@thomasfarnworth7999]

not going to finish watching it sorry. my belief is no metal utensils on cast iron! sorry for the negative thoughts. best of luck for you.

[@KaneDoesOutdoors]

@@thomasfarnworth7999 ok. I’ve had that pan for 25 years, metal utensils haven’t hurt its feelings yet.

[@leonardgenovese7726]

Ok Thomas, it’s obvious you don’t use cast iron. Metal utensils won’t hurt the seasoning. You probably also believe you can’t use soap. Also completely wrong. In the old days, soap contained lye. Bad. Not any more. Metal against cast iron, really? If anything, the metal utensil will get damaged more than the iron.

[@davidbeard2748]

Stop using metal spatula on cast iron!! You're damaging it.

[@KaneDoesOutdoors]

You can sandblast cast iron without damaging it. Literally. My father would get old cast iron sandblasted before repainting it. Zero issue. Scraping hard steel with soft steel does nothing.

[@coltapodaca]

Not damaging it at all. Best tool for it, really. I'm a chef.

[@davidbeard2748]

Yes, it does damage. You are removing the seasoning of the cast iron. Argue all you want, but you are damaging it. I hope you don't wash it in soap either.

[@jakilafaele4019]

Honey, I have used metal spatulas and steel wool on my CI for 50 years, never have I scraped my seasoning off. As for soapy water to wash it...I admit I didn't used to, but recently I found out it's the old soaps you shouldn't use, modern soaps don't have lye or something in them, so it's quite safe for them.

[@Icutmetal]

Bullshit, you are not.

[@nowheresddpage3066]

Paper plates... are you kidding me... you would think people who camp understand the importance of a small footprint not cutting down trees so your hands don't get wet.

[@KaneDoesOutdoors]

What kind of vehicle do you drive? How many times a year do you take a plane? I could go on and on. Couple of paper plates ain’t gonna change the world. I was camping solo with my two boys most of the time last year, so I’ll take anything that makes my life easier. The goal is to get out and get them having fun to develop an interest. We can worry about hugging trees and environmental impact audits later.

[@RNSOutdoors]

@@KaneDoesOutdoorspaper plates are made with recycled paper products. The commenter doesn’t know what he’s talking about.

[@coolersiphone-oi3fj]

That and you can plant a new tree.

[@san-ramon-flash8077]

A true camper would not say that about paper plates. And if you are, you probably don’t even have camp fires😂

[@sandrahughes3821]

Sorry still use my grandfather’s enamal plates and mugs, paper plates fire lighters.i put 3 5litre bottles in an esky behind my front seats when iI camp you have to bring in your own drinking water.
