Three burner propane campstove
 
I am looking for a three burner propane campstove for camping this summer. The one that Coleman sells is a joke but the only other one that I can find is a 90,000 BTU "Camp Chef" - which is a little overkill for my family. Are there any other options out there? Any leads would be much appreciated.

Thanks

Coleman used to make an outfitter series 3 burner propane and white gas I have one of each. I got them from a pawn shop they are hard to find most people won't part with them

My wife got me the three burner camp chef for my birthday. I hate to break her heart but damn I hate that thing!! Once it's set up it's nice but it's increadibly heavy to lug around. I'd go for the two burner job if I was you. And if I was me I'd go back to my old two burner coleman white gas jobbie.

I bought one like this about 2 years ago from Cabela's and love it. It is still big but definately easier to pack than my 2 burner camp chef. The one I got was the same except it had a tin skirt around the base to shelter the flame from the wind but I couldn't see it on their website anymore.

Imo this or same style diff brand is the most convinent camp stove out there


Fantastic heat control/portable /cheap fuel and you could get two or three if required. The only down fall is at minus 10 or more the bottle of fuel will ice as it discharges, but u will get the same from any presured fuel. Ps the case proped open on the upwind corner is an excelent wind break.

(edit) looking at their fuel prices cheap may raise a few eyebrows.
These work in most stoves.

Bought me the Camp chef Yukon 2 burner , that thing is awesome , Bought it at bass pro for 140 dollars I think it was , tempted to buy another , perfect to take on a picnic or to cook a feast in your hunt camp .

Be a rogue and build your own !

I have two camper type 3 burner stoves. Going to build one onto a BBQ frame.
Just because I can :D

I've got two of the three burner naptha Coleman stoves, the real old ones and they're both in mint shape, I even have the box one of them came in. They're great stoves and I wouldn't get rid of either one. If you can find one of these ones you wouldn't be disappointed one bit. :sHa_shakeshout:

I have the 3 burner Camp Chef stove with the 2 burner griddle. Love it.

Not a big deal to setup and its actually sturdy.

I couldnt fit a frying pan onto my little coleman 2 burner stove.

How about this option (assuming you have no stoves right now of course)? Instead of looking for a three burner stove, get a two burner and a single burner very small hiking stove. That way you still have three burners in total, you can spread them out a little more for space management, and you can also just take the single hiker stove along when you are travelling light. More flexibility. You will also have more choice of product for two burner stoves than three burner. Just a thought.

Thanks for all of the tips. I found the three burner Camp Chef at Costco for $169 ... and even though it was overkill it was too good of a deal to pass up. Lets hope I can afford the propane bill:)

Thats the same one I have. It works awesome. I also went with the flat top grill that covers 2 burners. Nothing like making grilled cheese when you're camping.
