- Come along as we cook up a bunch of brunch for the Boca Crew at Black Lake, WA.
Both stoves are a solid option, it just depends on how much you want to spend.
Camp Chef has higher BTUs, sturdy construction but bigger footprint
JetBoil has some a newer clamshell style, option to have a pot and pan included, but a higher price point.
In my view, you can't go wrong with either. Just depends on how much you want to spend.

This video is very well made with good close shots, different views, humor and even some cooking tips… however it was useless as a one product versus another product video. No one discussed how low the flames could go, how high they could go, the amount of adjustability of the flame…on and on. I don’t understand why so much time and effort was put into the video and then in-depth pros and cons of each model were not discussed in detail. But, thank you for the cursory glance.
You get what you pay for. Many people are going on about the price of the Jetboil, but I can say that I've only bought it once a few years ago and since then it has taken dozens upon dozens of tris and has performed flawlessly every single time. Meanwhile, I've watched my penny pinching buddy (who's a millionaire by the way) buy at least three stoves over the same course of time and trips. For me, the Jetboil has a much smaller footprint and I appreciate that, not to mention the nesting and cooking is a win win out the back of my truck.
The main issues with the Jetboil Genesis are the splatter and protection from the wind. Everything you cook leaves a splatter of mess on whatever table, tailgate, or platform you are preparing your food on. On the Everest the splatter is contained within the stove and the wind is well deflected.
Nobody here mentioned that the Jetboil Genesis has really smooth engaging IGNITION lol... I was like, why is he using a lighter? Maybe he didn't spot the lever design? Wow tho that food looks delicious and we're gonna try some of that with ours, great video 👍
The price difference makes the Jetboil a no-go for most people-especially since the cooking differences were minimal.
Indeed, it is on the higher end but interesting to see what's out there
The best part about the jet boil is that it comes with a pot and really awesome pan in the bag. I was able to even fit another pan inside the bag. So 2 pan and a pot inside the bag with the burners. The way it packs down and holds all the other bulky pots and pans in one compact size was a hug win for me. That’s before even talking about how it always lights up on the first try and has the best control over the flame. Again I love my basecamp haha.
The jetboil has superb temperature control. You can get it low enough to make rice. I’m on year 4 with a jetboil and it is such a pleasure to use, plus the size efficiency makes packing, unpacking and storing it that much easier.
A campstove can be for decades. Two generations used my Dad’s Coleman stove over 40 years before I retired it.
Nice video thanks I'll be planning to get the everest 2x..
I've been using the everest 2 for three years now, although mine is slightly different from the one in this video. Great camp stove, always works, and puts out a ton of btus, 20k per burner. Highly recommended
I'm a newbie to camping stove how long of cooking time can you get with 1 lb butane bottle , on everest 2x ?
Nice review. Thank you so much! You made it look so easy to make these amazing dishes. Just gave your cookbook to my outdoorsy boss as a birthday gift. Will get more for Christmas later this year! You're the best chef!
Cheers Yun!
I own both but the Jetboil really has an adjustable flame for low simmering etc….. I did buy a wind screen to protect the jet oils flames. That’s the one and only downside to the jetboil. It does come with a windscreen but it’s more of an afterthought. But buy a cheap windscreen and the jetboil wins hands down 👍🏻
nice additional thoughts SD. Agree, the JetBoil can be a little challenging with a breeze
I've got the Everest 2X and the flame adjusts from a faint whisper to space shuttle launch on both burners. Love it.
Great video. Thank you! There are other less expensive 2 burner suitcase style propane stoves available. Also would not hurt to get a dual fuel 2 burner white gas when no propane available. Amazon has many stable single burners propane, butane, liquid, etc. But cooking up your catch such as fish, crab, vegetables,pasta food for friends and family requires multiple burners even a grill over a campfire. Nice demo on higher end cooking gear. I also have a hose adapter that attaches 2 burner propane stove to larger propane tank if required.
good points. I would consider paying $30-60 to have a little bit better construction compared to the lower end brands
I see you at all the Overland Expos and filmed you many times, but never knew you had a CZcams channnel! I’ll be binge watching this weekend!
welcome aboard!
Also have an Everest. Works really well and durable. That bunch looks great!
Well I’m a fan of the good old white gas Coleman stoves. Much cheaper, great cooking vessels, easy to simmer and use very little fuel. A tank on the 2 burner lasts me about a week 3 meals a day. I have the single and the double burner, I also have Trangia and canister stoves but my go to and preference are the white gas ones, there’s a reason why you can find them in working condition vintage from the 60s, mine are not vintage fortunately Coleman still makes them and if you need parts they’re available but if you take care of them using white gas not unleaded they’ll probably be transferred to your children with the original parts.
Man you get around the country! Living a good life!

Yes the jetboil is pricey but everything is self contained. If you have the other stove you still need pots and pans which will take up more room
Its pricing is pretty much in line with any higher end gear. My icebreaker base layer cost pretty close to the same amount and that is basically just underwear. What I have learned from hunting and camping for many years is it is worth the price of top end gear in many cases. This is the first time I am taking my family with our 1 year old daughter camping. I spent 7 grand on gear over the past month preparring for our trip. It seems crazy until you realize that you actually will be using all of this stuff and that when you buy low end you end up replacing it with the higher end stuff evetnaully so why wait? Most high end gear lasts so much longer and provides way better efficacy that it no longer appears to be that expensive looking back after a few years.
room is everything when your trying to take as much as you want with taking up the smallest footprint possible
The Campchef may be sturdier than the classic colemans, but I have two 30 year old classic coleman propane stoves that are still going strong. I also have a 3 burner white gas coleman that is still working after 60 years--How much sturdier do you want?
Why did you light the jetboil with a lighter ??
Force of habit I guess.
The Jetboil output is for extra burners and coffee extension which to me makes this a no brainer in comparison.
Cool design on the Jetboil. But delicious looking food in both!
Guys,
Cool video. Can you repeat the process comparing the Jetboil Genesis with two other folding stoves? The Naturehike is around $110 and the Coleman costs aprox $80.
I have the same Camp Chef and the output is 20K BTU.
The Jetboil can be expanded with other burner modules, if I remember correctly.
Hey O, I'll keep this in mind for future videos. I can say from many cooks on a Coleman, I'm not impressed. Doesn't get very hot and tends to break easily. The Naturehike is new to me.
You ran out of gas???! Hahahahaha! Oy...
For the nearly $400.00 (for the JetBoil), one could purchase SO many other very competitive stoves AND additions to the kit. So, for me, I would never consider the JetBoil.
In the end, great friends, beautiful surroundings, good video! Thanks, Chef! :)
Ha...yea...that's what happens when you start with a low bottle but the crew needs to eat!
Or you could just refill your tank or hook it up to a large propane tank....$4 adult dollars is a whole lot these days lol. Could buy afew 2x4's instead I suppose
Great video kind sir! Sat in on your class at Overland Expo Mtn West 21' and have enjoyed your "Trail Meals" books...keep up the great work, always enjoy your videos.
Erik
Cheers EE!
Your test day seemed calm and mild. Would be interesting to learn if the lack of external windscreen on the Jetboil would have any impact, on a chilly/cold windy day compared to the Camp Chef. The built-in screen around the flame on the Jetboil would protect the heat source, but just thinking about potential heat loss from the wind hitting the sides of the pot/pan resulting in cooling of the food/longer boil and cook time etc. and/or change in fuel consumption? Enjoyed the video and found it educational! :D
Indeed HH. Wind will effect this or any stove. Probably need to use that box of CheezIts as a windscreen
@@ChefCorso Ah yes, snack boxes make perfect wind screens! :D "MORE SNACKS PLEASE, it's gettin' windy!" :D
The Jetboil does have a flexible plastic windscreen, but I didn’t test it on mine.
Jetboil makes some nice stoves, but their exorbitant pricing leaves a majority of potential customers out.
The Jet Boil has 1 input for propane and one output, the Jetlink to hook up an extra burner. It would kinda help if somebody read the manual if you going to review something LOL. I'm just giving you a hard time nice video guys.
thanks for the tip Seamac. Directions...what are those ..I just want to cook 😆
If I may be so bold, perhaps a "directional microphone" to hear the comments from your "guest chef" might be considered? Food looked yummy by the way and I do enjoy your videos. Safe Travels ~ Camp Chef, for car camping & simplicity, only because I'm an older guy & enjoy cooking with cast iron. AND, one can hook up different sized propane gas bottles to the Camp Chef.
Noted PK!
You can run the jetboil on any 1Lb or 20 Lb or even a 40lb tank of propane. Same hose as a Weber Grill. I also have an adapter to use the jetboil fuel from the Jetboil Flash and MiniMo….. works best with propane though.
@@StefanDiazPhotography Thank You! Duh, on my part. 👍
@@peterkahapea8536 all good lol 😂 no duh involved 😊
Metal utensils?! Fired.
Luckily we all survived
Reminder to everyone to not use metal utensils, especially titanium, on a non stick pan. 😅
FYI. They both have igniters
2 GREAT stoves.
neither is really packable so might as well load up the Blackstone "portable" griddle.
Coleman a while back had a dual burner split stove similar to the Jet boil. Was actually a really good stove for 1/3 the cost or less.
JetCooker is a very well thought out stacking design for a two burner, with it all fitting inside an ultralight heat finned pot and lidded by a folding fry pan and pot lid, neatly put in a sack.
$400 is glamping though...and it us too big to distance hike...so it is car camping. Probably best in a big touring motorcycle.
For my small bike I carry a $8 pocket rocket in a personal $7 mess kit with the $5 jet boil gas can.
For car camping i can get two of those $18 Coleman butane marine cookers that chefs like and a nest of three light pots and a similar fry pan (picked up used for $3) in about the same size pack,...with cooking supplies in the nest.
When this gets knocked off for about $80 i might retire the cheap stuff...but $400 is the cost of an inside budget appliance and more than your avg patio BBQ rig
hey ST. uhh..yea..these are car/rig camping stoves.
@@ChefCorso since it is a car rig, the big one is better for the big car folk even if the same price, because it is big and you placed an iron skillet and big pots on it...instead of fancy tin foil pans. It has a wind break or backsplash which makes cooking on windy days better and safer.
The jet boil sure is expensive but has its uses. The size and weight might be a a bit much for a standard backpacking type thing but it works wonders for shorter hikes when cooking for larger groups and to bring with you on a kayak trip where weight and space aren't as much of a concern as long hiking but you still don't have enough space for that giant one. You can also buy it without the over priced pans for around 250 bucks which is slightly more palatable
@@doc8125 sounds like a glamping holiday of gear addiction like model train collectors or golfers. $250 seems a bit obscene for just boiling a cup of water beside a stream or path with a $5 butane can. Something an empty coffee can will also do.
It's your money and doing what you want with it is a beautiful thing in the Ron Swanson libertarian philosophy. Happy boiling.
@@STho205 isn't this whole channel about not just boiling water for all your camping meals? I don't own one and don't plan on getting one, just saying it isn't as black and white as "never worth the money". It's a luxury item for sure but what's wrong with that? Nothing else I know of packs up as small and gives you two burners that work like more traditional home burners
Thay have inghiters
All comments were different in there own way. BUT... as far as price. That IS NOT AND SHOULD NOT BE THE FOCUS. Quality and functionality is PARAMOUNT. WHO IS THE BUYER? WHAT ARE THERE REQUIREMENTS?
Obviously both have their points of needs fulfillment.
SO...
this point.
Note the addition items required to use or for use.
Ie... pots pan.
Table.
"PACK ABILITY" Foot print. Space required to use. Size or amount of cooking area?
What i read here are mostly focus points rather than need requirements. The open market has far to many designs to choose any one over another. There for one personal preferences are the pivotal markers to ones decision.
I has Everest iiX and will take it over jet boil any day.
The thing is: just swap the pots - use the finned one from JetBoil on regular stove and suddenly JetBoi Genesis becomes normal stove with way too little extras to justify its crazy high price. It's all about those pots which are great to increase the efficiency of heat transfer from fire to the pot content. Add isolation to the pot and you are even better.
Both to big for a backpack so if we’re going for car camping I’m bringing my Webber iq I can cook with pots and pans I have a griddle and a grill wala
What is this knife you got there? The one that resemble the kitchen knife more.
CRKT & AG RUSSELL
@@ChefCorso AG Russell folding cook's Knife II. That's the one! Thank you!
What’s the table that the 2 stoves are cooking on?
Kovea
You could buy 4 camp chef for the price of 1 jetboil
You could buy a jetboil for less then you buy a tire for. Or acouple tanks of gas will get you a jetboil. $3 adult dollars isn't that much.
