All Hungry Vanagon Owners,

I have a much better suggestion. I have a book titled, "Manifold Destiny"
(ISBN 0-679-72337-4, copyright date 1989). As you might imagine from the
title, it is dedicated to cooking on your engine. It is written a bit
tongue-in-cheek, but it is legit. Of course they have many safety
disclaimers and suggestions. However, there are a lot of really good,
workable recipes for meals on the road.

Yep, fine tome,  Given that my SVX overheats a bit, mounting a chicken
basket near the catalytic gives reasonable cooking temperatures, not enough
for baked potaties but fine for fowl and various pig parts.  Easily does a
smoked sausage with a suitable dollop or two of my famous agent orange
habanero Q-sauce.  Use two aluminum bread loaf pans with the porky bits
inside wrapped securely in the ubiquitous Reynolds body armor grade foil.
staple the pans together.  put em in the chicken basket and drive on.

Also check the cookbook by Carl Franz, John Muir Publications.
