Video Transcript for Review of Front Runner Portable Grills and Fire Pits - Cadac Dometic Safari Chef 30 Cooker - FR99WJ

Hi everybody, Andy here with etrailer.com. Let's take a look at this Cadac Dometic Safari 30 Compact 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 butane propane fuel cartridges. That's gonna provide a heat output of 6,100 BTUs per hour. Now as you can see, we do have this lever here, and then we have this compartment here. And this compartment is going to hold your cartridge.

And once you have the cartridge in place, you're just going to push down on this lever, and that's going to secure your cartridge in this compartment. So that's going to be very easy to insert that cartridge and secure it into place. And then you're gonna be ready to go. This does feature a push and turn piezo ignition. As you can hear there, and you're gonna be able to adjust the temperature to where you need it.

Now this compact stove is going to include a fat pan, which I already have here and placed onto the cooker itself. And this fat pan is going to help contain drips and spills and it has a pot stand inside. Let me give you an overhead look. So as you can see, this pot stand is going to hold your pots and other cooking surfaces. And then you can also remove this fat pan, and you can see our burner there.

And then replace the pot stand. And then you can use this to put a coffee pot on there to make coffee or other pots that might be too big for that fat pan. So this can be used without the fat pan if need be. So it is very flexible. But I'm gonna go ahead and place that back on, and then put our stand back into place.

And then that's going to secure in the fat pan itself. Then we also have this flat grid for frying, and then that's going to set right into place. And then you can also replace the lid while you're frying things up like so. And I'll give you a quick front view of that. And then going back overhead, let me go over the other cooking surface that we have. We have our barbecue grid for grilling, and that's going to go right into place just like that. So that's gonna hold nice and secure. So you can grill up chicken, beef or other items that you would like to barbecue. And again, you can use the lid to cover that up. And this lid is going to, of course, help the speed up the cooking, and when you're grilling or when you're frying. And what's nice about this lid is it has another use. I'm gonna remove our barbecue grid and this lid could actually be used for as a pot itself. You just flip it over. You can use this as like a wok or a high sided pan or a cook pot on that stand. And you can probably go ahead and remove this fat pan, and just use it with the pot stand if you're gonna use this by itself. So as you can see, you have a lot of flexibility with this and some of the components have more than one use. Now this can also be used with other cooking surfaces that are from CADAC that are not included with this kit. For instance, they do have a pizza stone that you can use that's going to be compatible with this. And you can just set that on the pot stand. Let me give you another overhead look there, and then use the lid. And if you're interested in taking a look at that stone, I am including our item number for you. You can just take that item number, and put it in the search field of our website, and that will take you to that stone to check that out. And then also the paella pan from CADAC, you can use that as well. And I've got one here. And then you just set that on the pot stand. And you can use this with the cooker so it's going to fit right into place. You're not gonna have any problems with compatibility issues or anything like that. So again, this is a separate purchase as well. This pan does not come with this cooker set, but we do offer that here at etrailer.com. And I am including that item number for this pan. And that comes with the lid on your screen. So you got a lot of flexibility with this, a lot of different ways in which this can be used. You're not limited to just one way of using this. Now this does feature the cooking surfaces feature a green grill ceramic coating that's going to heat up fast with less fuel. And the cooking services are PFOA and PTFE free. And then everything can nest together for portability. So let me just show you this. I'm going to put on the flat grid first on top of the pot stand. And then put our barbecue grid in place and then replace the lid. And so this is what it's going to look like nested together. And I went ahead and took some measurements when it's all together like this. And the overall height from the top to the surface that it's going to be sitting on. We're sitting at about 10 and a quarter inches tall. And then the overall length of the unit, and I actually included the handles from our lid sticking out, we're sitting at about 13 and three quarters inches long. And then the overall width at the widest point here, we're sitting about 11 and three quarters inches wide. Now one final thing I wanted to point out. As I mentioned, everything does nest together and this does also include a little carry bag here that's feels like it's kind like made out of a nylon material. So I wanna go ahead and just show you how this is all going to be able to slip in. So I'm gonna take the the base of our unit here and slide it into our bag, make sure it's in there real well there. So we're in place. And then I just wanted to show you here on the inside of our lid, we do have some compartments here that maybe you could throw in some plates, or even the cooking surfaces themselves if you wanted to. So you do have some compartments inside. And seeing if there are any others here that I'm missing. And I then I've got the rest of our unit nested together. So I'm just gonna set that on our base, and then bring our flap over. And go ahead and zip it shut. And making sure it all fits into place there. And so this is going to be a very convenient way to transport this. As you can see here on the back, you've got some mesh pockets. Maybe you could put some utensils in there, napkins, other things that you might need to have all in one place. And then we've got a carry handle here that's going to allow you to easily transport this. Plus it's going to keep everything together. You're not gonna have to worry about it banging around in the back of your vehicle or anything like that. It's going to keep everything nice and secure. Instructions are also included to walk you through the features, and how to make sure you're getting the most beneficial use out of this cooker. 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.
