There is a wide variety of cooking gear for outside use from wood fires and Tranglers to gas and petrol cookers. So wi would suggest you compare the equipment that is available to make sire you get the right type of cooking gear for your trip

Even if you will be using a campfire, you'll need a camping stove or grill in case of bad weather (i can assure it is hard although not impossible to light a fire in the rain but requires certain skills) You'll find a variety of stoves and grills made for campers.

Some are cheap and small, others are more expensive and cook larger amounts of food at once. The smaller and lighter the equipment, the better, especially if you have to carry it for a distance. You may also need pots and pans as well.

For example, if you want a traditional breakfast of bacon and eggs, bring a cast iron skillet or frying pan in which to prepare it. Coffee can be made by boiling water in a pot, adding coffee grinds, steeping for a few minutes then straining until grains are removed.

Although the right cooking equipment is essential, some meals and snacks are easier than others. For example, hot dogs and marshmallows can be roasted on skewers directly over the fire. There is nothing more traditional and memorable than the taste of slightly burnt hot dogs and marshmallows that have been cooked over a crackling campfire.

Different types of wood can actually impart slightly different flavors to the food, so do a little research when choosing your firewood. To store cold foods, breads and drinks, use a cooler. You'll also need utensils to cook and eat with like spatulas, skewers, spoons, forks and knives. Try the newest innovation called the spork to save space, as it is a neat combination of spoon and fork.
