Frequently Asked Questions – Camping Stoves, BBQs & Cooktops
What type of camping stove or BBQ is best for me?
If you’re packing light, go for a single-burner gas stove (or induction cooktop if you have the setup) for quick meals. For groups or longer trips, a dual-burner gas grill or charcoal BBQ gives you more space and versatility. Prefer simple, low-maintenance cooking? A fire pit or grill plate over the coals is hard to beat.
Are induction cooktops suitable for camping?
Yes. Induction is great for powered sites, caravans, and 12V/24V setups running a suitable inverter. You’ll get fast heat-up, precise control, and no open flame. Just confirm your power system can handle the draw and use induction-ready cookware. Read our full induction cooktop guide here.
What’s the difference between gas, charcoal, and induction?
- Gas: Instant heat and easy flame control; ideal all-rounder.
- Charcoal: Slower to start, but delivers classic smoky flavour.
- Induction: Fast, efficient, clean and smoke-free where electricity is available.
Can I use my camping BBQ or stove in national parks?
It depends on current park rules and fire bans. Gas and electric stoves are often allowed with care, while charcoal or wood fires may be restricted during high fire danger. Always check the local park authority’s advice before cooking.
How do I clean and maintain my camping stove or BBQ?
- Allow the unit to cool fully before cleaning.
- Wipe surfaces with warm soapy water; dry thoroughly.
- For gas BBQs, clean burners and grates regularly to prevent build-up.
- Empty ash from charcoal units after each use.
- Lightly oil steel parts to help prevent rust and extend lifespan.
Do these products meet Australian standards?
Yes. All camping stoves, BBQs, and induction cooktops we sell are sourced from reputable Australian suppliers and meet local safety and performance standards—built and tested for tough Aussie conditions.
