Best Teardrop Camper Cookware

If you own a small camper or teardrop trailer, you know that storage space is extremely limited, especially in the galley. For this reason it is important to keep your teardrop camper cookware simple and compact. Here’s a guide to the best cookware to consider for your teardrop camper, ensuring you can enjoy delicious meals without sacrificing space or convenience.

1. Nesting Cookware Sets

Space Efficiency: Nesting cookware sets are ideal for teardrop campers due to their ability to stack within each other, dramatically saving space. These sets typically include pots, pans, and sometimes lids that can also serve as plates. Opt for lightweight materials like aluminum or titanium to keep the load manageable.

This classic Stanley Cookset comes with a 2 liter pot and lid, two bowls with lids, a folding cutting board and folding spatula and ladle, all stored inside the pot. A lot of items fit into a compact pot.

2. Cast Iron Skillets

Durability and Versatility: A cast iron skillet is a durable option that can handle everything from frying breakfast sausages to baking a campfire pizza. Although heavier, its non-stick properties and ability to retain heat make it a worthwhile addition to your camper cookware collection.

Recommended Product: The Lodge 10.25-inch Cast Iron Skillet is pre-seasoned and ready to use, perfect for cooking hearty meals over a camp stove or fire pit.

3. Collapsible Silicone Cookware

Compact Storage: Silicone cookware that collapses can save an immense amount of space in your teardrop camper. These innovative items include collapsible pots, kettles, and even colanders.

GSI Outdoor Escape Collapsible Pot and Frying Pan Set

I love this set because it takes up so little room in the cabinet but you can cook pretty much anything you need to with this set. The collapsible pot folds down and stores neatly into the frying pan and the set comes with a storage bag as well.

4. Multi-Use Utensils and Tools

Functionality: In a confined space, each item you carry needs to earn its keep. Look for utensils that can multitask. Spatulas with built-in bottle openers, knives that double as peelers, and spoons that measure are all great examples.

Stanley French Press

Anything that can serve a double duty is great for the teardrop camper galley. While this is great for making coffee (see our best ways to make coffee in your teardrop camper) the little pot is wonderful on its own for just quickly boiling a pot of water when you need it.

5. Lightweight Enamelware

Classic and Lightweight: Enamelware is lightweight, durable, and doesn’t retain odors or flavors. Its classic look and feel bring a touch of nostalgia to your mobile kitchen, making it perfect for serving and eating meals.
