Kitchen Essentials Checklist

Lakeshore RV Center

Mar 1, 2016

Hello happy campers! If you're getting ready to head out into the great outdoors on a camping trip, I bet you're looking forward to all that camping has to offer. Hiking, fishing, kayaking, sightseeing, cooking over an open fire--all reasons that nearly 20 million Americans take to the highways every year on RV trips. But before you can hitch up the trailer and head out of the neighborhood, you have to pack for your getaway. And if you're like me, you dread packing up the kitchen. For my campfire meal staples, like freshly caught grilled walleye and campfire cones, there are so many things that I need in order to make them, such as aluminum foil, measuring spoons, and spices. So I've put together a kitchen essentials checklist for you to use when packing for your adventure. I've included all the basic utensils, cookware, supplies, and tableware to ensure that your kitchen is fully stocked and your bellies are full. Happy campfire cooking!
