Around the Campfire
The difference between golden pancakes and burnt pancakes is usually
heat---not the recipe.
Heat is Your Main Ingredient
Steel stores heat. Give your griddle time to preheat before adding food.
Three Working Zones
- High: Searing burgers and steaks.
- Medium: Pancakes, vegetables, grilled sandwiches.
- Low: Toasting buns or keeping food warm.
Move food instead of constantly changing the burner.
Wind Matters
Wind steals heat from a portable griddle. Position the cooking surface
so the burner is protected whenever possible.
Dragonfly Tip
When in doubt, start lower. You can always add heat.
