Cooking over a fire is an essential part of camping for me plus it's just easier for actual cooking. (My Purcell is great but I wish I had the one with the slats closer together every time I have steak. No biggy. The one I have is probably lighter)

The stove is for really nasty weather (and maybe pancakes after the bacon is gone) but I often use if for freeze dried meals because I'll simmer 'em for a few minutes in a civilized camping bowl (pot). Burning off some gas also lightens the load.

What do folks do with bacon grease, greasy leftover breading and such when only using a stove? When baking fish in foil I just burn off the grease and fold it up. Foil will burn but it leaves a lot of half burnt bits I'll normally pack out so folding the whole chunk is easier for me.
