Camp kitchen gear for car camping and overlanding: a chuck box with a built-in wash sink, Canyon hard coolers, Dometic CFX5 12V fridges and fridge slides, titanium and solid fuel stoves, a portable grill and firepit, Winnerwell tent stoves, cookware, mess kits, and the LifeSaver Cube water filter.

A camp kitchen needs a place to prep, a way to cook, and a way to keep food cold. The Chuck Box Camp Kitchen has a fold-down prep surface, and its quick-release top lifts off to serve as a wash sink. Add a stove or the grill, then pick a Canyon cooler for trips on ice or a Dometic CFX5 fridge that runs on 12/24V DC or 100 to 240V AC.

For what to bring, see the camp kitchen checklist. For more water filters, see Fire & Water.

Camp Kitchen Gear for Car Camping and Overlanding

A good camp kitchen does three jobs: keeps food cold, gives you a place to prep and cook, and supplies clean water for drinking and dishes. The gear on this page covers all three, from a 1.7 oz titanium stove for the trail to a 12V fridge that runs off your vehicle.

Keep food cold: fridge or cooler

Dometic CFX5 fridges run on 12/24V DC or 100 to 240V AC and hold temperatures from 68°F down to about -8°F, so no ice is needed. They use vacuum-insulated panels and a variable-speed compressor, with Bluetooth app control. Pick the CFX5 25 for tight cargo areas, the CFX5 35 for weekend groups, or the taller CFX5 45 for longer trips.

  • CFX Slide SLD3545: full-extension slide for the CFX5 35 and 45, rated to 220 lb. Slides are also available for the CFX5 55 (SLD55), 75DZ (SLD75), and 95DZ and 100 (SLD95100).
  • HWK-DC Hardwire Kit: a hardwired 12/24V DC outlet with a fused supply cable and a threaded 2-pin socket that locks the fridge cable in place.
  • Tie-Down Kit: four 1.5 m straps and four fold-down anchor points to keep the fridge put on washboard roads.
  • CFX5 Protective Covers: EVA foam and 1200D nylon, sized PC25 through PC95 to match your fridge.

Canyon Coolers are rotomolded with pressure-injected foam and a divider that doubles as a food-grade cutting table. The Pro45 holds up to 29 cans at max ice retention and weighs 38 lb empty. The Pro65 holds 66 quarts for groups of about four on a weekend.

Organize and prep

  • Chuck Box Camp Kitchen: a rotomolded box (19 in high, 24.5 in wide, 18 in deep, 19 lb empty) with five compartments, a utility drawer, a four-compartment utensil drawer, and a fold-down prep surface. The quick-release top lifts off to serve as a wash sink, and the top platform fits many two-burner stoves up to 22 x 13 x 5.5 in. Stove and dishes are not included.
  • UCO ECO 5-piece Mess Kit and ECO 6-piece Mess Kit: place settings with a leakproof lid that doubles as a plate and a Switch Spork. The 5-piece is recycled polypropylene and weighs 14 oz. The 6-piece adds a collapsible Camp Cup.

Cook: trail stoves, fire, and tent stoves

Clean water at camp

The LifeSaver Cube holds up to 5 liters of untreated water and filters it as you need clean water, with a published filter life of up to 5,000 liters. When the FailSafe indicator says the filter is spent, swap in a Cube replacement cartridge. For running water at the wash station, the Dometic GO Hydration Water Faucet turns a water container into a tap, with automatic shutoff and up to 150 liters per charge.
