Video Transcript for Review of Front Runner Portable Grills and Fire Pits - Cadac Dometic Safari Propane Cooker - FR49WJ

Hi everybody, Andy here with etrailer.com. Let's take a look at this Cadac Dometic Safari Chef 30 Portable Propane Cooker by Front Runner. This portable camp cooker is going to let you grill, griddle, or cook in a pan with four exchangeable cook surfaces that uses a one pound propane canister. And you can see the connection point there at the base of this cooker. And this is going to give you a heat output of 6,100 BTUs per hour. And as you can see here on the front, this does feature a push button piezo ignition that's going to make lighting the stove very easy.

Now just to go over the components that's included with this cooker, we do have this fat pan that's going to help contain drips and spills. And let me give you an overhead view of that, just so you can have a better view. And so inside we do have a pot stand that can be used for boiling, and also you can remove this fat pan, and then put the stand back into place just like that. And this will give you a little more space for maybe like a coffee pot or to cook something, or warm up something, or boil something where you don't need that fat pan at the bottom to collect drippings or things like that. So that is another way that you can use this.

But lemme go ahead and put that fat pan back in the base, and we'll put our pot stand back into place and secure it there. So pot stand and then also a flat grid is included with this for frying. And of course you can replace the lid just like that to help speed up the cooking when you're frying. And then the other surface that's included is a barbecue grid for grilling. So that just is going to secure in place just like that.

And then of course you can replace the lid, speed up that cooking. So you got quite a bit of flexibility here. And then also the lid itself will become like a pot, or a wok, or something like that, a high sided pan. So you can also use this lid for cooking as well. Let me give you kind of a front view of that.

So again, a lot of flexibility with this. And as you can see, we do have three legs here. They are spring loaded. Lemme just remove this portion here real quick, and just so I don't drop anything, to give you a a demonstration of that. So when you are ready to collapse this and store this, we have these release buttons here that you're just going to push and then that's going to allow you to close these spring loaded legs. And then that's going to be a little more portable for you so you can easily transport this. And then when you're ready to use it, you're just going to bring those legs out and as you can hear and see, they snap right into place so it'll be a nice secure base for you. Now this cooker does support pans from 7" all the way up to 10" wide. And this is also going to work with a few other Cadac accessories and I do have some here that I wanna show you first. This is going to work with the Cadac Pizza Stone Pro 30, which I have right here. And let me again give you an overhead view. And so this is going to sit right on that pot stand inside, and then you can just place that lid right over it. So that is another option for you that's gonna be compatible with this. This pizza stone does not come with this cooker. So on your screen, you can see that I did provide the item number for this Pizza Stone Pro 30. If you're interested in checking that out, you can just take that item number and put it in the search field of our website and that will take you to that pizza stone. And then also this is going to work with the Cadac Paella Pan With Lid, which I also have here. So let me just go in for a front view real quick to show you that pan. And then that's going to once again sit right there on that stand. And it's going to be very simple, very compatible. And so once again you can see that I do have our item number for this paella pan with the lid. And if that's something you would like to check out, again, just take that item number, and put it in the search field of our website and that will take you to that pan. So a lot of flexibility and a lot of compatibility with the other options that Cadac Dometic by Front Runner offers, and we do carry those options here at etrailer. Something I did wanna mention is these cooking surfaces do feature a GreenGrill ceramic coating that's going to heat up fast with less fuel. These cooking surfaces are PFOA and PTFE free. So they're gonna be safe to cook on, you're not gonna have to worry about it. And then everything here is going to nest together. So let me go ahead and just put these pieces together, as so you can see, that they're going to nest together for maximum compactness. So when you're ready to store this or transport this. I went ahead and took some measurements before our time together. So the maximum height that I came up with when everything is together, it's going to be from the surface that it's sitting on all the way to the top, right at about 15-1/2" tall or so. And then the overall width at the widest point, and that's where the base of these legs come out when they're fully extended or opened, the maximum width is about 14-1/4" to 14-1/2" wide. So let me go ahead and just give you a demonstration of how this is all gonna fit in the bag. And I'm just gonna remove the top portion here real quick. I'm gonna fold in our legs, and then it does come with this very convenient carry bag. It's made out of kind of like a nylon material. You do have some other compartments in here, in the lid, or maybe you could put one or two of those cooking surfaces in there if you wanted to, or maybe some plates. So lemme go ahead and open this up. I'm gonna put the base in first. I don't think there's any really right way or wrong way to put these pieces in the bag. And then I'm just gonna put then the top portion in, while it's all nested together, and then bring that together, and it's got zipper enclosure, and then just like that, it's all gonna be nice and together. The storage bag is going to keep it clean but also allow you to easily transport this. It's gonna keep all the pieces together. As you can see, we have a handle here, and then we have a mesh pouch here in the back for other items that you want to carry with this. So very convenient and you're not gonna have to worry about accidentally losing any pieces. Instructions are also included to walk you through the features of this cooker, and make sure that you're using it as it's designed. And overall, when everything's together, it weighs about 11 pounds, just to kind of give you an idea of the weight of the unit. Well that's gonna wrap up our look today. I do hope that it was helpful for you. Again, my name is Andy, thank you for joining me.
