If you’re planning to spend time in the great outdoors, there are a few items you’ll need to survive. Perhaps the most important thing is good food. Eating well during a days-long camping trip, rafting journey or hiking adventure is essential. Preparing with the right gear for camp cooking is the right place to start. A few simple tools turn the process of making meals around a campfire from a pain in the you-know-what to an enjoyable task and bonding group experience. Remember, a well-fed campsite is a happy campsite.
While your campsite setup may vary, there are basic camping cookware necessities that every outdoor chef and hungry camper should have at their disposal. A good set of dinnerware, camping pans, a portable grill and a good cooler are just a few items that you’ll want to secure before setting out into the wilderness this summer.

You might not think it’s worth the space in your bag but having a table goes a long way to create order when you’re cooking in the great outdoors. Not to mention it’ll keep food away from dirt and rascally animals while you’re prepping and eating. This collapsible aluminum table weighs just eight pounds but opens up to provide 324 square inches of outdoor table glory.
This model is currently sold out but there are a few good options to explore on Amazon.
