I am looking to use this to scald chickens for processing. What propane stove works best with the 100 quart?

I think you have to get measurements from your pot and get the the biggest one you can afford and make sure it has plenty of BTU's to heat that much water to 145 degree's (sscalding temp. I use the 50 QT for scalding and it works fine2 chickens no problem .100 QT for turkeys maybe.

Any propane tank would work if it had the threads that would fit the regulator that comes with the Camp Chef. We've noticed that it doesn't use a lot of propane, but we usually don't run it on high.

Yes I did. Works well, last week cooked a 25 lb turkey in 5 1/2 hours. It didn't use much propane. The turkey was really juicy and the fat drains into a pan on the bottom of the cooker which the turkey does not sit in the fat. Cleaning the unit is a little time consuming but not that bad.

It uses a butane, propane mix that burns very hot. It comes in small canisters made by MSR, COLEMAN, JETBOIL, or PRIMUS. Great stove boils 1qt of water in about 3 .5 min at Wisconsin elevations. I used Jetboil, it was cheaper whenbpught locally.

I love it. I use this one for vegetables and pasta. I have another one for grilling, they are shaped differently, but appear to be the same. Grilled chicken is great, it browns best with a little olive oil and paprika on it. Haven't tried anything else. And have no idea about the wattage.

I have two different types of butane gas burners and I find it difficult to get a low enough flame on both of them to properly cook rice, grains, or to simmer soups or stews without all the liquid boiling off. I wanted to know if there were any other portable gas burners that were more sensitive to being set at low temps!

That shouldn't be a problem. I normally use indirect heat, so I cook 1 chicken with only 2 burners on.

I would guess I could pre-fill my hobo alcohol stove and drop it in, light with a long match,twig or a spark from a ferro rod,using the stove as a pot stand and windbreak concentrating the heat. I'd be careful not to get burned. Now I'll have to try it.

Is the lobster pot a 100 qt pot? If so, I would say "yes"...I have used a 50 qt pot and worked fine...

I guess, it depends on the stove too. On the MSR isopropane stove it did not burn at all. I used both already: the cattle and the fry pan.

Yes you can roast a bird in it. We used it on a two burner propane cook stove in Panama for two months.

From researching this model, and the other more expensive 6003, this would be perfect for your needs. But for some intense frying the 6003 would be a better option. It is one quart larger and has more power. This model is advertised for soups and steaming.

Try the alcohol stove. You can make it in about fifteen minutes with just two aluminum cans. I used to used canister stoves on my ultralight journeys, but if you're only boiling water for the most part, they are so light. You can't even buy them. Just Google penny stove if you wanna give it a try

Go with the Proheat brand, much higher quality and has a grounded three conductor cord and is about the same price. The preheat model is a 154. I have two 10 KW gen sets and that is what I have on them. The cats model burned up rite away and the preheats are still there working three years later!

I've been living with just a butane camp stove for two years now. (Long story. I also have a toaster oven, electric skillet, and crock pot. It can be done.) We found that using our camping set of Black Ice works best, uses the least amount of butane. We use the pots almost daily. They run through the dishwasher just fine. The interior is still wonderfully non-stick. The exterior has taken on a white cast, but that doesn't change its effectiveness. We do take them on our camping trips. Because they are so thin, though, you need to be careful that the contents do not overheat and burn. Also, the handles feel precarious. I've never had them slip, but if you have a full pot of water and spaghetti, take care. I always use a good hot pad to maintain a good grip. Having said all that, these would not be my first choice on a regular gas or electric range. You should choose a set of cookware with real insulation -- much better for daily cooking. These work for me on the butane camp stove because they are so light and thin.

Yes, grandpa did it. Propane torch would be easier. A stainless steel bowl is what I use. on a hotplate.The furnace for lead is MUCH safer. One burn (automatically 3rd degree) is more than it's cost.
