RV Camping: The Marvels of the Outdoor Kitchen

Imagine you’re an up-before-dawn camper hosting people who prefer to sleep in, but who’ll no doubt awaken hungry for breakfast. Try perking coffee, frying bacon or doing meal prep with an RV full of sleeping bears best left unpoked.

Enter the outdoor kitchen, the ideal place to cook, serve and entertain friends and family. It’s an idyllic place, especially sipping that first cup of coffee of your own.

Why do people rave about their RV’s outdoor kitchen? Because it’s a camping marvel.

Bougie Wooks: The Unapologetic Glampers

One of the early “glamper” tents used by Ottoman Sultan Suleiman.

When hitting the music festival circuit, who’s your crew? Is it the RVers parked in the full hookup sites, with refrigerators and beds and toilets that flush. Or is it the primitive campers who sleep in tents and whose food and drinks are pulled from a cooler that someone damn-well better have remembered to restock with ice.

We usually camp with the glamper set, a relatively climate-controlled world where the elements are left outside – with the $100 zero gravity chairs and shoes all dry and tidy beneath the awning.

But we’ve been known to pitch our tent beside Spirit Lake, digging that primitive vibe with fellow tent campers.

Though the forces of gravity and the corrosion of age have us tending toward glamping’s softer touch, we’re comfortable with our flip flops in both camps.

Power Tool Time for RV and Tent Camping

 There’s a scene in the sitcom “Home Improvement” where Tim Allen’s character tells wife Jill, “You know why I like tools? Because they fix things. You tear down a motor, see the problem, it’s right there – boom; it’s fixed.” Hey, DIYers, workshop fixer-uppers and RV and tent campers, you nodding in agreement? Projects, renovations and “honey dos” pop up. Things – slides, awnings and other devices – break. The campsite could use a little boost in livability, whether speeding up raising and lowering scissor jacks or putting in or out the awning, or adding some stereo sound, extra light or a fan to cool the still air.

With battery-powered and cordless tools and accessories, you can make short work – or lasting improvements – to your RV, travel trailer, tent, or wherever you call home.
