Very intelligent choices. I think a screen room is a brilliant solution to sheltering a camp kitchen. Using shower curtains as wind breaks is pretty smart too. I love the fire table. Just the thought of bending over a campfire on the ground to cook makes my back ache! You have put together an excellent kitchen setup!
Oh, and I certainly approve of where you put the food stores. Bears visiting my camp at any time to raid the groceries is terrifying to me. I remember my family camping at Yellowstone when I was a small child, back in the 50s. We had our very large tri-color collie with us when a bear decided to check things out one evening. My 6'2" 200# father could barely hold our dog back. He was going to damage that bear if he had a chance. The bear decided that the human's wolf was just too much and left.
I was raised with that dog, he was 6 months older than me, and I had never seen him be anything but gentle, though strict about how I treated him. That night he made it clear that he wasn't going to let some damned bear mess with his pack! Dad was just grateful that the leash held and we had him on it. Loved that dog!
Great story from your childhood reminded me of my favorite family dog - a collie / German Sheppard mix. She gentle as could be with my two young boys but ferocious toward anything that could harm them. Thanks for watching and posting this note. Hope you have many fun camping trips.
I enjoyed seeing how your camping set up and gear changed over time. Great video!
Hey. Thanks for the note. Yes, our setup has evolved a lot over the past 50 years. I’m very happy with the way we set up our camp now but I’ve grown so old I may not be able to get out there many more times.
50 years of experience...nothing beats experience!
Unfortunately, that means I’m getting old and don’t have the energy to do everything I use to do. Thanks for watching.
Outstanding video! Exactly what I was looking for. THANK YOU for sharing your years of experience.
You are welcome and thank you for your encouraging comment. Take care.
What a wonderful and informative video! Thank you!
Thank you. I’m glad you enjoyed it.
Thanks Frazier for all the informative videos. I always go back and rewatch your videos every now and then to get a refresher. And I've been camping for 30 years!! Well, maybe I just enjoy your videos. Keep em coming sir.
Thank you tommieboi707. I’m always happy to hear that my videos are helpful. I’m currently working on a video about Zebra pots. Have you ever heard of them? I’m now waiting for some warm dry weather so I can demonstrate a few tips for cooking with them.
@@moderntentcamping never heard of zebra pots. But I'm interested to see what your experience is with them.
You have the best storytelling voice!!!
Thank you. Hopefully, it can help other tent camping enthusiasts enhance their camping comfort. Thanks for watching.
Roll Tide! We lived in Huntsville for a decade and in Hamilton for 8.5 years.
This is fantastic information. Simplified everything. We haven't been camping in decades. The best memories from childhood were camping, so I figured it was time to get back to it. I bought us a Gazelle 4TPlus because I will have to do the setup myself until my husband recovers from a foot injury. He cannot get up and down off the ground easily so I am looking at cots vs. airbeds. I will binge your videos and glean as much as I can. They are great!
Huntsville is growing like crazy. Apartments and sub divisions are being built everywhere. Roads are clogged in the mornings, after school, and after work. Hope you enjoy those videos. I’m working on another one and hope to post it this weekend. Take care.
Tent camper for 30 years. Got most of this. Decided in our later years to buy a pop up. Sleeping on the ground just got upgraded.
There are lots of good things about pop-ups. Thanks for watching.
I can really listen to this voice reading a book to My soul at bed time 🙌🏿🖤
Thank you. I take that as a nice complement. Thanks for watching.
My husband and I are going camping together for the first time in over 30 years. After looking at the weather report, we went to the sporting goods store to buy a $60 canopy shelter. We have tarps, ropes, etc, but we have zero recent experience setting up a tarp shelter, so $60 shelter it is for now!
Hey Mendy, where are you going? If you have the time, I’d like to see photos of your shelter and campsite. And I’d like to hear how well you like this shelter and how well it held up to rain. PS, we don’t do the tarps anymore but it was a good shelter for many years.
@@moderntentcamping Hi Frazier, we are going to Martin Dies Jr. state park in east Texas for 4 days/3 nights. I’ll take photos and email them to you. Although we have a site with a screened shelter, we are using this trip as a practice run for future trips to sites without many/any amenities. We are only expecting rain on Saturday, and it’s Texas in the spring, so you never really know for certain what kind of weather you will have on any given day. The shelter we have has no sides, but we have tarps to rig up in case the rain comes in sideways, which is entirely possible.
@@mendyviola Hope you have a great trip.
As far as coolers go, I like taking 2 smaller coolers instead of just one big cooler . One for food and the other for beverages. Easier to carry and we can get a beverage without disturbing the food and the ice lasts longer in the food cooler. Only adding ice to the beverages when needed. And oh yes love my Coleman camping gear too. Have a great camping season when the covid season is over.👍
That’s a good plan. I use to do that a lot when we traveled in a smaller car.
Another excellent video Frazier Douglass! It never ceases to amaze me how you and Ava come up with so many great ideas for camping. I have learned so much watching your videos. Thanks for the time and effort that goes into making a good video that shares so much info about camping.
mrbr549 Thanks again for your kind support and long-term support. It means a lot to me.
Thank you for sharing your updated camping kitchen review. This gives me a lot of ideas!
Thanks for the note. I’m glad to hear that it was helpful. Where do you usually camp?
Great tips! Every years I find more and more tips for the next trip.
Thanks for the note. I’m happy it was helpful.
A couple things about the propane stove: ditch the green tanks in favor of a flame king 5 lb propane tank with hose adapter. You can buy the flame king tank from Costco online. The tank is refillable at many U-Haul locations. Also i recommend buying a couple hot plates (they are only $11 each) for an easy alternative when you are at an electric site so you're not using propane unnecessarily. Another good electric option is an electric griddle or skillet. It's cheap and light to have this alternative available to you and is a no brainer when "shore power" is available.
Good suggestions if you have a lot of packing space but we (wife & grandson) have to pack all our camping gear in our SUV and don’t have space for that gas tank.
@@moderntentcamping the tank holds five of those green tanks, and my thought is it takes roughly that amount of space. You'll probably easily go through five green tanks on a trip. The more propane you're using on a trip the greater space savings and benefit you'd have by going with a refillable tank.
I transport mine in the box which measures 9x9x13, a pack of six green tanks measures 8x8x12, so yeah i can see where you'd say it takes more space, however if your going past six green tanks you'll probably start realizing a space savings from an 11lb.
This is wonderful! I'm really into setting up a nice campsite if I am staying more than a few days in one place. Love the milkcrate cabinet idea.
Deborah, I just noticed that I didn’t reply to your comment but I really appreciate you watching my video and taking the time to write a comment. Take care.
I love kitchen gadgets. I love cooking. I have two camp Kitchen boxes that I take on every trip one for utensils, cookware etc. and the other is a dry food box. Depending on where I’m going and for how long I adjust my kitchen box. Different trips require different things. Sometimes I only need a few items if it’s just a one or two day trip and I’m cooking light. Sometimes I need the whole box if I’m camping for three or four days and really cooking. I love to see how other people arrange things it gives me great ideas. As far as surface area goes I have a nice adjustable folding table that I use as my main kitchen table. I have a newly purchased tire table that is great for the stove and eating on, and I have two small GSI tables that I used by the campfire to hold beverages and
miscellaneous stuff. Thanks for the great ideas Frasier. I always admire your set up.
Jacqueline Thanks again Jacqueline for your encouraging comments. How is work? Are you busy now or do you have more time for camping. Do you have any camping trips planned this year? Sometime, I wish we could talk. It would be nice to chat.
Frazier Douglass With tax season over now I’m going to take next weekend off and head to the upper peninsula for a long weekend. There’s a nice little rustic campground near Lake superior I want to try out. I’m really excited. And yes it would be great to talk one day.
Jacqueline Will you be going up to the Ernest Hemingway area? Please send photos if you take any.
Frazier Douglass I’m not sure where that is. I will be going up between Grand Marais and Marquette. We staying at a tiny little State Forest Campground on Kingston Lake. There is question if I’ll be going or not if I do go I will for sure take pictures and post them on your Facebook page.
Love this! So glad I found your channel! I think tent camping is so much better than trailer camping. Being in the outdoors and cooking outdoors is so much more relaxing! Costco also has an amazing canopy that is fire retardant and is extremely sturdy. We bring 3 of our fold up tables and seperate our cook station with prep and our dishwashing/drying area with handwashing station then have one for eating (large family). Looking forward to seeing more of your videos!
Adventures with the Ethington's Thanks for the note. I agree. Tent camping is the way to go if you enjoy being outdoors.
As always it is a great video to teach others about tent camping. The idea of using bathroom shower curtains for the side/wind walls is brilliant. A tarp would do in a similar way, but the clear curtain allows the sun in for morning warmth and allows visibility to beautiful outdoors. Using a rope as a shower curtain rod allows flexibility. Your inspiration has given me the idea of bringing all of my usual camping equipment but now also a separate one called "the Hack Box" . It contains the seldom used items but ones that I am glad to have for the unforeseen or infrequently needed. Clear shower curtains are one of them. Thank you Frazier Douglas.
Hey Chris, it’s great to hear from you again. Hope you are doing well. I like that idea of a hack box. I may have to borrow it. We’re you affected by that big storm earlier this week? It looked like it dumped a lot of snow along the North Atlantic coast. We got some very cold temps but very little snow. Hope you have a great 2023.
Absolutely AWESOME!!! Love it! Yes learned quite a bit. Thank you for sharing!
Thanks for your note. It always makes me feel good when someone tells me they learned something from my videos. Bless you.
Smiles 😊 and thanks for sharing some wonderful tips!
Happy Camping ♥️
I’m glad to hear it was helpful. Thanks for the note and stay healthy.
By far one of the best camping videos I've seen. I've tented for years and considered a camper van this year. But again will continue with my tent. This video is well put together, informative and practical. Thank you and happy camping.
Thank you Karen, for watching and sending this note. I love outdoor cooking and am constantly looking for better equipment, recipes, and methods. Just wish I was ten years younger and had enough money to camp all summer. Check out my other videos if you have time.
Very nice info. Someone who has your experience and has tried so many things is the EXACT person I want to watch. Thank you for the great info- you have passed on some fantastic ideas!
Thanks for your note Jenny. I’m happy to hear that it was helpful. Take care.
Awesome video! What a rice life filled with adventure!
Thanks Kristen for watching and sending this comment. We have enjoyed taking lots of camping vacation trips over our lifetime. And we have enjoyed teaching independent living skills to our grandson and giving him the opportunity to see many historic sites in the eastern states. Unfortunately, we have gotten older and this fact plus the virus has really had a negative effect on our camping trips. Hopefully, we’ll be able to take a few trips this year. Thanks again.
Great video! We also have the same cooler and have been looking for a compatible hanging basket. Now we know what to by! Thanks for all you do!
Kelly O'Hara Just measure the inside width and go to amazon.com. To find the one that fits. Good luck.
Thanks for the kind comment.
Yes I learned something,Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for your note.
Thank you so much for sharing all your knowledge on this subject
You are welcome. Thanks for your note.
Too hot to camp now but I love camping and I know I take way too much, I need to go through my stuff and get it to a minimal. I always think that I may need such and such. I like watching you because it makes me want to get rid of a lot of things...thanks
Sharon Nix Thanks Sharon for the comment. It’s easy to accumulate too much stuff. Good luck cutting it out.
Someone looks like a great camp cook
Eva and I both enjoy camp cooking. She typically cooks Mexican foods and I cook American. Thanks for watching.
I really appreciate your videos !
Thanks Harry for your comment. It is nice to know that my videos are helpful.
Thanks for this video! It’s always helpful to learn from others.
Thanks for the note Bob. I’m happy to hear that you enjoyed it
Most excellent video! Equally nice to know what no longer works as what does.
Thanks for watching and posting this comment. It’s so nice to hear that viewers learned something useful.
Great camp kitchen video! Making myself a permanent checklist to keep in the tent trailer and your video helped me evaluate my list. 😃 Happy Camping! 🏕
Thanks so much for the note. I’m always happy to hear that my videos are helpful. Hope you have some great trips and cook some tasty meals.
Great camp kitchen you have there. I always get great ideas from your videos. I'll be getting rid of the plastic ware, replacing it with something more durable. Your setup is awesome, nestled together definitely saves tons of space. Your kitchen tent is very nice. Great video as always. Thank you for sharing, take care Frazier D.
RedWhite&Blue 78 Thanks Jason. It’s good to hear from you again. Are you still coming this way? Don’t know what we can do but would like to drive up for a short visit one day if it can be worked out.
Thank you, I picked up a couple of good tips!

Love your wooden stove!
Adventures with the Ethington's Thanks. Currently working on an axe video that will feature that wood stove.
@@moderntentcamping looking forward to seeing that video!
Thank you! I leaned from you!
mickerdoodle51 Thanks. I’m glad to hear you learned something.
Super helpful! Thanks!
Thanks David. I’m glad it was. Thanks for watching.You may want to check out my more recent camp kitchen videos.
I never would have thought about using pie pans as dishes! That is genius. Thank you for sharing!!!! In return, I will share one of my little hacks. I have a very similar set up to yours about the food and how it is laid out in the vehicle. I leave a five gallon water jug in there too. It is heavy and large and difficult to move around as you said, but I have found a way to get around all that. There are little water pumps sold for under ten bucks on Amazon that charge using a usb port and the charge lasts a week. They screw on top of the jug and you operate them by pressing a little button for water to pump out as needed. At first, I tried the pumps that you gotta mash the blue button on the top manually and found those to be a pain in the neck. They didnt stay firm on top of the water bottle and their straw tubing would frequently pop apart inside the jug, leaving me to fish them out and reset the whole deal over and over again. But the new pumps work amazingly! They have a flexible tube that goes into the jug and that has not let us down one single time. They also stay put on top of the jug. It has made my life camping a lot more convenient as far as water supply is concerned. Thank you again for sharing your tips!
That’s a good tip. Do you remember the brand? Was it for an aquarium?
@@moderntentcamping It is actually created for the water jugs. There are about five zillion and one brands on there. I was looking for water pumps for water jugs and these auto ones started popping up. The brand is something in Chinese but it had the most positive reviews and has not let us down yet. I think it ended up costing about $8 after tax and everything, but there are tons in the under ten dollar range on there.
Thanks for sharing. I bet you guys cook up some mean meals with that set up.
Minute on the Mountain we try to cook good food but don’t cook as much as I’d like. Thanks for the comment.
There is nothing better than cooking in nature. Kind regards from Outdoor Kitchen :-)
Outdoor Kitchen I agree. I love cooking on a wood fire. Thanks for watching and commenting.
Great ideas, thanks
Thanks Chris. I’m always happy to hear my videos were helpful.
Fist off, this video is very well put together and super informative, but more important, you have such a great delivery, I wish you could narrate all the videos I watch from now on! I am so happy I found your channel, can’t wait to dive into the rest of your content! New sub here
Thanks for your very kind comments. I’m glad to hear it was interesting. Hope you enjoy future videos as well. Hope you and your family have a good Christmas season.
@@moderntentcamping you too buddy, this is the season to stock up on camping goodies, and dream of warmer camping weather.
Thank you Sir. Your videos are very informative.
Thanks for watching and sending this note.
Great video, thank you very much.
Thanks Sergio for the note. I’m always happy to hear that viewers like you liked the video. Keep in touch.
Hey Frazier, I just made a cooler change. Stay tuned for that. I love your set up. Thanks for sharing and hope all is well.
Mid TN Outdoors Can’t wait to see what you are using. Thanks Patrick.
Have you ever tried using dry ice in your cooler?
Adventures with the Ethington's yes and honestly it is a little bit of a pain to do. I rather use just plan ice.
@@MidTnOutdoors have thought about using Dry Ice along with our dinners are prepped and frozen so it lasts longer. Here in FL it is insanely hot/humid from Spring through Fall. We just blow through way to much regular ice no matter what kind of cooler.
Learned alot thanks
You are welcome. It’s good to hear from you again. Hope all is well with you.
Well done, and thank you 😊
You are welcome. And thanks for the note.
Great video. It’s been fun watching you evolve. I use the same screen house on some trips.
Smax Varese Thank you. Where are you located? Thanks for commenting.
Frazier Douglass We are up in Wisconsin but when this mess is over we hope to get back on the road. Last year we hit the SW National Parks
Smax Varese My old home state. I lived there 9 years and vacationed there for the next 35 years. I know the state well and have camped in almost every state park in the southern and northeastern corners. Where do you usually go? My complaint is the state DNR has allowed many campgrounds to be over run with raccoons and coyotes. Have you camped in Michigan? They have some great camping destinations.
Great information thank you
Thank you. I’m glad to know it was helpful.
Well done sir!
Thank you. This was a nice wake up message this morning.
What a great set up you have. We like to use the 1 gallon jugs too even when we take the 5th wheel trailer out. You Sir really make some quality and informative videos.
Strong's Adventures Thank you so much. I’m running out of ideas for future videos. Need help.
@@moderntentcamping I will see if I can thing of a few things. Our adventures haven't been very adventures this year either so that's why we have mainly just been doing cooking videos. There is a group of us that do cast iron cooking on Wednesdays. Maybe you could make a few of them. You can do that at the house if you are not able to go camping.
We always welcome new members of the Cast Iron Crew.
Strong's Adventures Where do you live?
@@moderntentcamping We live in North West Louisiana.
Subscribed sir. Happy camping
Thank you and same to you.
A great video. Here on the east coast of Australia we are in our third 'La Nina' year and here that means; rain, rain, rain..! So we certainly need shelter for the kitchen here.
We too used to go for a big tarp, however the setup and down was fiddly and packing it all away, with guys and poles, very time consuming. I am going to look at a similar hexagonal shelter and currently have my eye on one by Oztent, which I believe may be available in the US also? (For you at the moment with the high USD$ you might be able to score a real bargain, buying anything priced in AUD$..?)
Kitchen wise, I have just revised our kitchen setup in terms of storage and kit. Have gone for utensils and spices in a roll, which we will hang up at camp. Some plastic storage drawers for crockery. A smaller, clear storage box with a tray, which contains, cutlery, tea, coffee and spreads, such as peanut butter and what we are all addicted to down here; Vegemite!! :D A few boxes, however small, portable and packable.
I was contemplating building the REI chuckbox, (they have free plans online and it looks very functional and ultra handy). I might still do so, just as a project and to compare it to what I have organised currently?
I do like Coleman stoves. We currently run butane stoves, which are owned by the same parent company as Coleman, however I think we will move over to a Coleman and propane. There is a brand new range just out, which look a little retro and the tech is up to date, so once your dollar comes down, I think we will move in for one of those!!
I LOVE the use of the milk crates as part of your kitchen and will trial that on our next outing, which should be in a few weeks. An Aussie company here called 'DRIFTA" makes canvas bags specifically to fit around a milkcrate to seal the contents.
Your careful focus on nesting crockery and kit is fantastic, I will now make that my obsession. We have 2 x young kids, so space in the car is very much needed, as you know only too well by the look of your photos.
Right, before I write War and Peace; thank you for sharing your wisdom, it is really helpful and all the best!
Doug I’d, thanks for the note. Sounds like you are a seasoned camping family trying to improve your camping kit. I can relate. I’ve been camping for 55 years and am still upgrading several times every year. Regarding that chuckbox, you may want to watch my recent video on Chuckwagon packing. Take care and enjoy those Aussie nights.
@@moderntentcamping Epic, thanks I will check it out.
Thank u so much
Thanks for the note Cathy. I’m always happy to hear that you liked it. Take care.
Awesome
Thank you and thanks for watching.
Going camping this week up in Tennessee with my SO (we live in central 'Bama). I have a hatchback, so have added a hitch and basket to carry equipment - other trips proved that driving a hatchback loaded with gear is dangerous, because I can't see out of it. Still working on ideas for a pantry setup - not sure the crates would work for my situation, but I hate the smell of the plastic storage box I've tried to use before. I did not know that you were using fabric shower curtains to make walls for your kitchen - I purchased three to use on this trip for my kitchen canopy. One of them has built-in storage, so that should help with organization when we make camp. They seem to be less expensive than regular canopy walls, and if one is using an odd-shaped slant-legged canopy (like I have), then walls are impossible to find. Velcro will be used to fasten the walls at the top and legs. Love my propane Coleman stove, but I use a 25 gallon propane tank so I'm not going to run out of fuel for it. Just bought a single burner Coleman butane stove to hot water for coffee and tea. I've also purchased a Coleman camp oven which makes its inaugural trip this time. We're excited by biscuits and brownies being possible on this trip.
Because of you and your videos/books, I was able to convince my SO that camping was not meant to be uncomfortable. Looking forward to watching more videos!
The Geekess Where are you going in Tennessee? The have some great state parks and most have swimming pools. Great option for kids. Thanks for the comment. Sounds like you are going to cook some great meals.
@@moderntentcamping We are going to Edgar Evins, on Center Hill Lake. Camping area is decking off the side of a hill overlooking the lake. It will be interesting.
The Geekess Yes, I’ve camped there several years ago. Very nice but the campground is on the side of a steep hill. Walking to the bathroom and back to the campsite was very strenuous. They use to have a nice restaurant down at the marina with entertainment on weekends. Hope you have a great trip. Send photos if you have any good ones.
Enjoyed the video. Have you looked at the Omnia stovetop oven? There are plenty of videos and even a Facebook group.
Camping World has (had?) a bundle. Works out cheaper than getting the oven and then buying accessories.
Don’t know anything about this oven but it looks nice. I’ll post a CZcams video on my Facebook page for families that might be interested. But I have used cast iron Dutch ovens for many years and enjoy using them for all my baking. Thanks for watching and posting this tip.
Great informative video. I would be interested to learn from your videos to step into camping... So how do you pack your car with everything? It appears you may be using four milk trays. I like the tray holder (at 11:19 minutes), how does that work? thank you for sharing your knowledge.
Thanks for the question Azeem. Please watch my other videos on camp setup and camp kitchen. My last video on Chuckwagon Camping is very good. They explain how we pack our car and how we set up. Hope to hear from you again soon.
Hi great video! Not sure if this has been asked but do you have recipes for the casseroles and desserts? Thank you
I don’t have them printed to share. But when I like a new recipe, I write it down in a small notebook. So I can use it again. Thanks for the note. Sorry I can’t help you.
Love that kitchen tent
Thanks
Thanks, it's a very useful video. I have a question: why did you prefer a propane stove but a gasoline stove?
Just found your question. Propane is much cleaner and easier to maintain. Thanks for watching.
Great ideas Mr Frazier I just realize I have too much stuff and need to reduce and a question do you ever uncounted animals and if so how do you deal with them
Hey Sarah, it’s good to hear from you again. Yes, we have frequently had animals that could have made our trip unpleasant. But we always leave our food in the car and only remove it to cook or eat. Most common animal scavengers are squirrels and raccoons. And they can be very aggressive over food. Over the years we’ve had a few skunks come to our campsite but they never sprayed and left when they didn’t find food.I’ve heard of other campers who have coyote problems when they leave dog food out over night. And I’ve heard about bear problems when food is left out over night.- but we never had this problem. We try not to camp near garbage cans because they can attract mice and mice can attract snakes. My wife says the biggest animal problem is dog poop that is not picked up by owners. Every campground seems to have a different animal problem. Where do you usually camp? Hope this is helpful.
How do you handle on-site cookware cleaning? On my last trip, I spent a lot of time just cleaning the plates and cookware. I created a make-shift sink with a bucket and a specter water can but it wasn't easy. I'm now looking into a collapsable sink table and pressurized water container. Thoughts?
We have a simple system. After eating, Eva’s heats some water, sets up a dish washing station on the end of a picnic table and uses our largest cooking pot to hold soapy water to wash each item. After washing, she puts it on a mat until every thing has been washed. Then she rinses each item with cups of warm water and sets it up on a drying mat. She catches soapy water in a bucket. While she is washing and rinsing, I put food back in the car, take trash to the dumpster, clean stove & tables, and clean cast iron. Then I dry dishes and repack them. Whoever gets free first takes soapy water to grey water disposal station. After the last meal of the day, we pack our shower bag and take a shower. Thanks for the question. Hope this answers it.
Wow you guys get a lot of rain. Everybody says that Oregon and Washington get a lot of rain but that is not true. We have mostly dry hot summers, hence the wildfires.
Vinny Ivanov Much of that rain comes from hurricanes. Expecting another one this Friday with 3 to 5 inches. Thanks for watching.
