Hi

Just wondering what people do with regards to cooking in the rain. Is it safe/advisable to cook under canopies/in porches?

I know cooking in the main tent is a no no. I'm looking at buying a new large ish family tent, and ideally want something to cook under!

Does anyone have any thoughts?

Thanks! Matt

Hi Wendy

Thanks for posting that - looks good! The issue I have is that I'm tempted by the Outwell Hartford L, and looking at the porch, it looks as though it essentially wil provide the same as windbreaks/canopy etc - in the sense it has a roof, and walls if need be.

Do you think this is possible, or is it too dodgy?

I did the whole frying bacon in ther rain thing, extra sizzle, but decided to get back to my roots and go for the canvas frame tent

Now i just get up and light the stove indoors, after opening the window to expose the mesh, and cook out of the rain, something to be said for going retro
