Just wondering if anyone uses the Hillbilly range of camp ovens. They say that are better than cast iron, is that true ? or a personal choice?

Have never used Hillbilly camp ovens as I have been using the Bedourie for years. I do know people who do use them and I have watched the guys from Hillbilly using them at camping demonstrations. There is no reason why they shouldn't perform for you.

Getting interested in all of these new ovens but keep hearing mutterings of where are you going to put these things, what are you going to do with it all, yadda yadda yadda
cheers guys

My inlaws have a Hillbilly and swear by it. They do a couple of outback trips per year, ie. The Simpson, The Canning etc. They use it heaps and usually try new recipes in it at home first.

This is my first post but I have been using a hillbilly for awhile now. I am also a fully qualified chef.

We took it to the high country and I was able to cook for 8 adults and 2 kids each time from the one oven.

Here are some pics I took while I was testing different things at home before the trip.

All these I reproduced on the trip as well.

I wish now I'd taken more....
