Default Skillet toast . . .

Hey ShrimpBurrito....

Always like reading your thoughts on here by the way . . .

Just a idea here....

When camping I make something I call skillet toast. I place a pad of butter ( sometimes it is a big pad... or two.... ) in a warm skillet and throw a slice of bread on top. Swirl once or twice around the pan. Modify amount of butter and time in the pan to suit. I take the leftover hamburger and or hot dog buns from the nights cookouts before and use them. They do not have to be turned over. Regular slice bread I do both sides. Takes a little longer than a toaster but it tastes good. And like most things that taste good it is more than likely bad for you....

Happy Camping!

I think some people refer to this as fried bread.

We have one of those stove top toasters. You put it on a gas burner and it sits there like a TeePee and you can lean 4 slices of toast on it. We bought ours in 1978 so it is pretty rusty. I don't recall the last time we used it.

I should get a small electric toaster for when we have 5+ people camping. I think my Honda 2000 generator could power it.

In most campgrounds, you can't run your generator before 10:AM, That sorta rules out the electric toaster on the generator. It also rules out the electric coffee maker and the microwave oven. We do all that from our 2, 27 series deep cycle batteries. Of course, we have to run the generator for 8 hours to make up for it. I put the generator in the shell in our P/U. You can hardly hear it run.

We run our electric toaster off of our 2500W inverter. It only draws 1500W for about 60 seconds. That's only 25 watts.

Of course, if you don't have an inverter, that's another issue. We love our inverter and wouldn't be without one again. It also makes a nice place to stow our extra awning brace.......

I think I like the way you mounted the inverter. I assume that when the front shell is closed that it does not hit it. Sure keeps it out of the weather and secure when stored.

I always wondered where I would mount one if I wanted one. With batteries on the tongue that is the perfect location.
