New cooking trailer

Smokin' Joe · 02-22-2009, 10:03 AM

Bobby and Mike's posts inspired me to go out in the cold and take some pics and get started on TIPPYQ, my new cooking trailer. We do a lot of camping as a family and had a nice travel trailer. It took two comps of loading the smokers and gear in and out of the pickup and camper last fall to realize I didn't want to do that 10 times a year. So the search began for a toy hauler that would fit the family for camping and would accomodate my BBQ stuff...I found this a couple of hours away at a dealer in Wisconsin. Its a monster @ 37' long, but its got everything we need (I think I can get into most comps in this area with it, just gonna cost a bit more). The garage area is a 10' long.

We've got a lot of work to do to get her ready to head to Jefferson City Mo in April. I have a small Fridge and a row of cabinets ready for the right side and a stainless table for the left. I'm still looking for a 60" or smaller 3 bay sink to go in front of the stainless table.

There are no outlets in the garage so I plan to run conduit for outlets and additional lights. I am also planning to convert the fuel station that is mounted in the frame under where the sink will go to a grey water tank for the sink drain.

I will post some more pictures as we go along.
Any tips or suggestions would be appreciated!

That's nice! I picked up one like that about 2 weeks ago, just a bit shorter at 34' but still has the 10' garage. Please post pics when you do the fuel station to gray water conversion. Thats a great idea.

That looks very nice. Congratulations and, as said above, keep us posted.

That is really nice. Once you have it set up it will be great for camping too. Please post pics as you go along

Who said the economy is slow. Look at all the nice stuff these guys are getting. Congrats.

Smokin' Joe · 02-23-2009, 04:11 PM

Thanks guys...

I'm doing my part Vern

I'm lucky to be in a field somewhat isolated from this huge mess (at least so far

)

Well with spring fast aproaching (even thought the weather sure doesnt feel like it) I thought I better get my but in gear. I hope to have it done in the next couple of weeks.

Today I installed all the cabinetry, countertop, and the fridge on the right hand side. I also started with the wiring, installing a panel and running a bit of wire, hope to nearly finish that project tomorrow or this week (not much to see so no pics). Gonna need her in 3 weeks
