You said : "Then, there is the great BBQ we can have, even when it is raining out, cooking it inside in the Crockpot. Put 2 cups of your favorite BBQ sauce in the bottom or make your own. Put in Pork ribs, Pork, Chicken, Beef, whatever. Cook it over 4 hours or as long as you want, you can even put it in the night before"
Yes, we used to do that, but now with the RV, the mouth watering taste permeates the RV and hubby wakes up famished .. but not for oatmeal! Now we put it together at the earliest time we can in the morning .. then have it for supper. Sometimes I have put it outside for the day to avoid permeating the rv with the taste.
Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass.... its learning to dance in the rain!

Forgot to mention .. we now have a 6 inch frypan .. found it at a local Fred Meyer. on the internet it is shown on Target. Really neat for two people to have fried eggs .. we are not gas stove fans yet. - Marji

And I bet my Lodge skillet will be used daily. Cast Iron...the original non-stick pan (and ya don't eat teflon!)... and great for both the stove and oven. Easy clean!
Why Full-Timing? Because at my age, I have maybe 40 more chances to see flowers bloom.

I assume you got the RV to travel, get away from the stress of working and get fresh air. You can not get fresh air if you are in the RV cooking on an electric frypan. You have to try cooking pancakes on a gas grill outside in the fresh air. Cooks faster than any electric and taste much better. And if your a pizza pie lover and have a few slices left over, heat them up on the grill outside for a nice almost wood or brick oven taste. Starting out Full-time RVing end of the month. At the present time I have a 1 year old Charbroil Commercial 4 burner and side burner with a little Weber in storage. Having a platform in the process of being made and welded to the chassis just for the grill and my bike before I donate the grill to a niece and replace it with a generator.

Part of the "fun" of full timing is adding new stuff as you go along. In truth you'll probably purchase and replace several "outside" items through the first five years of fulltiming until you find what fits your own individual needs. All that "stuff" still needs to fit somewhere in the RV once you start traveling down the road. So its going to take some time and experience to figure out what fits you. My advice... buy cheap to start off because you'll probably find the pieces you really want after 6 to 12 months of full timing. While an elaborate setup might sound exciting to start with, you may find that a handiful of practical multi use pieces are less trouble some to store and use in the future.

Have had the grill for a couple of years in my S&B and found that it cooks better and faster than the electric house range, portable electric grill, smaller gas or charcoal grills. Especially when cooking my Omaha steaks care packages a friend sends me quarterly(already set for deliveries when at one location for more than 5 days), fresh JUMBO shrimp, alligator, quail or my pancakes. Can't forget reheating left over pizza pie. Anything else gets cooked on whatever is handy. And if anyone is thinking of stopping by for dinner, Maybe!

There was a posting someplace here on the forum about silly things like Pink Plastic Flamingoes. Well for those interested in the preservation of the Pink Plastic Flamingo, Florida might be putting out a special license plate. THAT is a MUST HAVE!

The Weber Go-Anywhere grill is hard to beat. If you like charred outside and rare middle, don't bother, as it's more of a smoker oven than a grill. I lover the smoked flavor. Also, contrary to what Weber says, you can hook it to your RV propane or a large bottle (with the right hose and adapter).

Who says one has to be inside in order to use electric appliances ? Isn't that what the outside outlets are for ? We take the appliances outside and use the table we purchased for such times. Why waste the time and energy to mess up a large grill for one fried egg for that favorite sandwich .. fried egg sandwich!
We have gotten people look at us strange when we cook outside, but also there are people who will not use public restrooms, so it takes all kinds to make up any world .. whether educational or rv'ing world.
