Ozark Trail Portable Camp Kitchen
I have done my share of camping, and to me the worst part
was organizing food preparation which always seemed to land on my shoulders as
Mom.
We would need one picnic table just for the space to prep,
chop and cook, then another table to eat on.
When the kids were younger, we chose the simplest menu available and
even then it took some organizing.
We all love camping for the rustic living, but we also have
to be safe with food prep, and I found I was short of cutting areas for veggies
and meat. I missed my counter top at
home, but if I was really switched on, I tried to prep as much as I could
before we set out.
But it is nice to cook fresh and so one of these camp kitchens would have worked well. It is amazing how portable these camping aids are now.

I have seen all kinds of really cool camping equipment and aids to make it just a little easier, but with a smaller car this was always an issue. But I came across this portable camp kitchen by Ozark Trail, which I thought would seriously fit the bill and it is under 100 dollars!!
Folds Flat
It Folds Down Flat and even has a pole for the lantern so
you can see what you are doing at night.
It has a place to keep all your utensils (back rack), so you
can literally unpack those as soon as you set up, and there is counter space
and a plastic sink and a place to hang the garbage bag. You can prep your food and then barbecue or
however you are cooking without rummaging for the right knife or spoon.
The best part is you can simply wipe it clean with a
disinfectant cleaner and you are ready to go again. (don’t forget some kind of
disinfectant spray cleaner)
Plastic Sink Included
You could use this to wash veggies or dishes as you
prep. If you have your propane barby
close by, you can heat up water to use in the sink.
No bending Over a Picnic Table
I found trying to prep food at a dirty picnic table
difficult on my back, this Ozark Trail portable camp kitchen sink table is the
right height.
Add a Kitchen Tent - Huge Game Changer!
One of the first things we invested in when we decided to
camp was a kitchen tent. Unless you camp
with an RV or trailer, you need some shelter from the elements for food prep
and eating. We lived in an old RV while
we built a house for 6 months many years ago, and we needed the kitchen to be
outdoors. We set up the best we could
but I really could have used a portable camp kitchen, I made do with an old
card table, but at least we were sheltered from rain and bugs.
Portable Kitchen Tent
If you have limited room for your camping trip, try to find
camping equipment that will fold flat or super portable or has many uses in one. You will be surprised just how much you can
fit in the trunk.
Double Duty
Make sure everything you wish to invest in for your trip
works double time. Meaning it can be
very useful for so many things. This way
you don’t need a huge pile of equipment.
Stay away from anything too specialized unless it is something you truly
want. A portable camp kitchen works as a
perfect work top, a place to dish food, cooking utensil storage, and washing up
sink, as well as a hanger for the lantern.
Cheap Camping Equipment
I have found online to have some of the best deals when it
comes to cheap camping equipment. Many
items such as this portable kitchen are under 100 dollars, and can really make
life easier, and therefore more enjoyable. Just click on either link above and go shopping, you will be surprised at some of the good name brand deals.
I like camping but I also like some creature comforts, and
as my family has decided it is time to upgrade some of our equipment, we are
taking a look at what part of camping is too rustic and finding the right piece
to help.
