Camp oven storage

Hi Barry
We give ours a coating of oil and store it in a cloth bag, then inside a plastic bag (as the cloth bag eventually gets a bit oily but that's all the better for your oven).
Easy.

Hi Barry,
After a wash out we coat is with just cooking oil, It's placed in a plastic bag, then inside a timber box just bigger enough for it and then it's ready for next time. This lives in the tool box on the back of the camper.

Hi everyone,
We give ours a wash dry it over the fire give it a wipe out with cooking oil and place it in an old pillowcase. We use old pillowcases for lots of storage uses

One of the best things I did was "upgrade" my cast iron camp oven to a spun steel type. (Hillbilly in my case)
The cast iron one is buried somewhere in the shed, inside its canvas bag.
Probably still good as I oiled it before storing, but I really don't care.

The spun steel camp oven is much lighter, won't crack if dropped and when seasoned properly, developes a non stick coating. I seldom need to "wash" the Hillbilly, just a wipe with paper towels and a spray with cooking oil and it's ready for next time.

A far as oil goes, "oils is oils". Any cooking oil, vegetable, olive, peanut, or whatever you normally use is good for any camp oven. (Peanut oil is good for initial seasoning, but I use a vegetable oil in spray form as it is easy to apply. Then wipe away excess with a paper towel before storing.
The Hillbilly has a great canvas type storage/carry bag to hold everything, but you can also buy canvas bags to suit cast iron ovens as well.
