From her outpost in Denver, she assembled our initial slate of 12 camp stoves in 2021 and dreamed up our boiling and simmering testing regimen to ensure each stove was tested on an even playing field. Adding pieces of wood to the stove was a breeze with the wide feed ports. Positioning the wood upwards was easy for effective burning. Most requirepriming, which involves igniting a few drips of fuel in a cup below the burner, creating a small flame that preheats the fuel line.

The GSI Selkirk 540+ and Coleman 3-in-1 both pump out around 12-14,000 BTU, and were able to bring a liter of water to a boil in less than 4 minutes 30 seconds. This increase in performance does come with a cost, however, and in high-performance 20,000 BTU stoves like the Camp Chef Everest 2X, fuel consumption will take a hit. Consider bringing along multiple gas canisters when cooking with these higher-power options.
