There’s nothing wrong with eating mac and cheese at your campsite or chomping jerky as an hors d’oeuvre. But you can do better—with a little planning and the right gear, it’s easy to create tasty meals anywhere. This is especially true when you’re overlanding. But if you want to eat well in the most remote campsites, it takes preparation and a properly provisioned rig. That means considering everything from packing the right kitchen tools for camp to using the right tires to get there. We teamed up with to create a comprehensive guide to overlanding. Its tires allow you to navigate rough terrain with ease, ensuring that you—and all your ingredients for a great meal—make it to the campsite safely.��

Get Tips From a Pro��

The best way to cook like a pro is to learn from one. That’s why partnered with �����ԹϺ��� Chef Adam Glick, who spent a decade sailing around the world as a private yacht chef. With extensive experience cooking professionally in challenging conditions, Glick is primed for preparing 5-star food in beautiful, remote, and off-grid locations. So outfit your rig with tires from Toyo Tires and make the best camp tacos ever with tips from Glick, in this video and recipe below.

Keep Everything Cold��

To create inventive, healthy, and filling camp meals that everyone in your party will enjoy, start with an overlanding refrigerator. A fridge ensures you can carry fresh food to far-out places where you don’t have the option to buy more ice. There are many different brands to choose from, and ��products come in a variety of sizes that can plug into your cigarette lighter or truck bed to stay cool as you drive. At camp, you’ll want a portable battery and solar panel to keep your fridge and other electronics running as long as you’re out there.��

Bring Plenty of Water

Just as essential as keeping your ingredients cold is carrying enough water for both drinking and cooking. Simple water jugs will do if you’re just out for a couple of days. But if you’ll be out for an extended period and need to refill from a nearby river or lake, bringing along a filter is a good idea. Some water storage products include a filter, and there are many gravity filter options on the market that allow you to get clean water with ease.������

Dial In Your Coffee Setup

A successful day at camp or on the road always starts with good coffee, and many coffee aficionados will be excited to know that there are camp-friendly options to brew that perfect cup. There are many tools, from French presses to pour-overs to coffee grinders, to ensure your cup of joe is as good when made on your truck bed as it is on your kitchen counter.��

Upgrade Your Kitchen Tools

It’s not just coffee that gets the full overlanding treatment. There are many high-quality and portable tools you’ll want to set yourself up with. Start with a knife-and-utensil set made with the outdoors in mind. �����ԹϺ��� Chef Adam Glick created an that even includes a cutting board, ensuring you’ll always have what you need to create amazing meals on the road. “With the right gear, you can eat just as well at camp as you do at home,” says Glick. Further raise the bar with a set of pots and pans that can pack into itself for easy storage, and a cast iron pan that you can depend on for years to come.��

Sweat the Little Things

To prepare your meals, you’ll need a solid camp table. Any portable and easily storable table will work, and there are even some models that attach to the top of your tire. A packable towel or paper towels are good to have around to keep your surfaces clean as you go, and you’ll also want to bring a system to wash your dishes. Biodegradable soap, a sponge, and two tubs—one for washing and one for rinsing—make that easy.��

Invest in a Quality Stove

Now it’s time to get to the actual cooking. If your rig has enough room, bring two stoves. A straightforward workhorse two-burner camp stove is great for quickly boiling water for that morning coffee or an evening pasta dish. (Use a refillable propane canister to keep your waste down.) Other cooking can then happen on a flattop set over a fire, where you’ll be able to nail everything from bacon and eggs to steaks and veggies.��

Plan Your Meals Ahead

With a good cooler or refrigerator, there’s no need to worry about bringing your favorite proteins, vegetables, and other perishables on the road. “Don’t think that you can’t bring everything,” says Glick, “because you can.” As for choosing a recipe, you’re limited only by your own imagination as long as you plan appropriately. Prepping any batters, marinades, or sauces ahead will save you time and mess once you’re at your destination. Cook smart and make batches of each element once you’re there, so you can enjoy the meal alongside your friends instead of being relegated to kitchen duty all night long.��

Overlanding allows you to bring the comforts and flavors of home with you into the remote wilderness, so why not take full advantage of that with a chef-level outdoor kitchen setup? At the end of the day (or first thing in the morning), enjoying delicious food in a beautiful location with your friends is an experience you won’t soon forget.
