Van Life: Cooking with a RoadPro 12-Volt Roaster & Bluetti Power Station
We made the best Thanksgiving dinner, which was quick and easy, in our van using the RoadPro 12 volt portable roaster/ roasting pan and our Bluetti EB55 power station. How-to cook stuffed Cornish Game Hens.

About us:
We are Derec & Tanya. Welcome to our channel! We believe nature is the best medicine. We love the outdoors & have found healing in nature. So whether we are traveling around in our tiny home on wheels, named Betty White, or at our base camp, Chalet Chumley, we like to focus on outdoor living & the benefits it can bring to your life!
We also share disability related content because, after all, it is a part of our everyday lives & the challenges we face as an interabled, disabled couple. You may also find Tanya doing solo van trips, or easy van meals...or Derec out having fun in his 4x4 wheelchair or grilling it up in his wheelchair friendly outdoor kitchen.
So we hope you will roll along with us! Haha get it... ROLL as is...on wheels (with both the wheels on the van or the wheelchair). We also are pretty funny! Just watch a live stream & you will see.

Thanks Sandy!
Really enjoyable video. The Roaster is a great idea for 12V cooking. I recently looked at the same one at a Truck Stop thinking it would be a great option for our Chevy Classic Explorer Co Conversion Van. Your meal looked yummy 😋 😍 and not complicated so it would also work well in our Motorcoach for boondocking too. Yep, adding it to my kitchenware for sure! Thanks 😊 🙏 SHALOM (PEACE AND FREEDOMS) ALWAYS BE YOURS.

Thanks for watching & leaving a great comment! So glad you enjoyed the video 🤗
Hi, Vanlife Voyages: Thank you for testing the 12v Roaster out along with the Blueetti, this is great information for me to know as I start looking toward living on the road full time, within the near future. Hi, Tanya: Please thank your husband for his service in the Navy, my father spent 22 years in the Navy serving his country as well and I'm always grateful for the sacrifices that men and women in service make for their country. Gunner is a very beautiful German Shepard, he looks like a handful but a very loving dog. All my best always

Thanks so much! I will definitely make sure Derec sees your comment. Gunner is the easiest dig with Derec around & he is even doing well listening to me now. He is a great dog!
Thank you Sir for your service to our Country!!!🇺🇸

It works great but doesn't brown as much as higher temps do. But it was tasty.
For easy cleanup when using my crockpot, I found crockpot liners which are plastic liners, sorta like the bags you cook turkeys in. They work great. You might see if they'll work for you. Love the idea of this roaster.

Great idea, don't know if there is one small enough or if a bigger one would work. It's basically the 6x9 inch size.

All the while I thought the EB55 was a fast charging power station, now I realized it does charge slow compared to other brands.

I have the same model along with the solar panel, and the panel weighs a ton. Wish bluetti makes a lighter one. But i like bluetti brand👍
Question about that roaster. I see the top lid clamps down. Is there a rubber seal that stops steam from getting out? Would it stop liquid from getting out if it was accidentally tilted or sloshed around too?
@VanLifeVoyages
7 ай бұрын
Yes...there is a seal. Nothing can slosh around. It makes like an oven that cooks at 250 degrees, so cook times need to be adjusted accordingly.

Yes it can be used while driving...truckers do it all the time. Maybe it would be good on a passenger seat or floorboard 🤔😊
That EB55 would have been a good power station if it had a port to connect an extra battery.

For us as a back up battery it is perfect! We already have a 200ah Renogy Battery. I like how it has a bigger inverter than other batteries its size. Because of that, I can use other appliances that are over 600watts.

It's more of a slower cooking. Definitely can't fry, but you can absolutely cook & reheat most things as long as you have enough power.
I purchased that one and the on-off switch burned up in less than a month. Truckers beware.

That sucks! Been using mine for well over a year without issue! I'm sure RoadPro would let you exchange it. I know if you bought it from Amazon, you can get your money back 😉 I have had issues with other things I have bought from them & they take things back no questions asked especially if they are that new.
