Hill Billy Cooking Gear

my parents purchased the king cooker i believe. used it twice and never got a good result. they have gone back to the traditional cast iron camp oven.

Mate,

The best camp oven around IMHO.

I started off with a cast iron oven, (heavy) then a bedourie (didn't like the lid design) and finally the Hillbilly.

The Hillbilly's lid design not only stops the coals from sliding off, but doubles as a great fry pan. I also have the gas ring attachment but rarely use it as I prefer using head beads for a consistent result. The removable handle can be used to lift just the lid, or the whole oven.

The quality of the products are consistent and they have a large range to choose from.

I also have a separate small frypan and a peg lifter.

No association with the company, but I keep seeking them out at each 4WD show and they usually have something new to tempt me.

Mate, there is no problem with the quality and versatility of their camping products.

Love my Hillbilly.

Bill.

We've got the large frying pan with the folding handle, and it's a beauty. Great on the open fire, but I can't work out why the handle stays cool !!! I'm glad it does though. Got the canvas case too. More than happy.

I have been using their gear for years ,2 x ,bbq plate frypan on the open fire . Best bit of gear I've bought. I also use a ausspit ,it can be used with the steel pole that the frypan and bbq plate attaches to.

Oops that was supposed to be a reply not a follow up.

The original post asked about changes over time
I noticed this week while browsing thru a camping shop that the new hill billy pans now have a hole only about half the size of the one in the pans we have.
I assume this means they have changed the size of the pole to something much smaller.
maybe hillbilly offer both options but it is something to watch out for if looking to get extra stuff over time.

Hi Warfer we bought ours at last years c&c show and love it, got the largest one for the family and cocks a great bake or use the lid as a frying pan on the fire. At this years c&c we bought the large frying pan as well and it is great to cook with and it also packs into the canvas carry bag that the camp oven came in.
Much lighter and easier to pack than the old cast iron ones.
