I use a Coleman Stove n Grill. It is more like a single burner with gas bbq/griddle rather than a grill. I can griddle cook bacon, sausages, tomatoes and do toast on it, just have to turn gas very low. Not cheap but very efficient.

Hi we use two campinggaz cookers. One has its own legs as a stand which we use on short trips.

 The other is an older one that has to sit on a good table or cooking stand but this one has a grill underneath which can toast two slices of bread at the same time. The modern day equivalent of this is the Campinggaz camping chef. Ours has performed perfectly but I cannot comment on the current one on offer but I would not think it would be any different.

Cheers.

I've got the Campinggaz dual burner and grill, it will just about toast bread but is probably more use as a handwarmer on chilly days.

I've found it is bulky and with the gas bottle takes up too much room in the car, I took an electric hob and electric toaster last time but going all electric also uses up a lot of space (hob, kettle, toaster) so I'll probably try a dual fuel stove next and make toast in a frying pan.

The grills on gas stoves aren't too good for toast, buy the foldable toaster to hold over hob only one slice at a time but fast and efficient (u can keep one warm under gril while cooking the other), DO NOT buy the foldable toaster that claims to cook 4 slices at a time. there is numerous threads on how crap this is.
