Outdoor Cooking

[DMCarson]

The stagecoach information site states:

* Feel free to bring your own food and beverages into the camping area, however no open fires, gas, charcoal or any other cooking devices are allowed outside. No outdoor cooking.

THIS IS NOT THE SAME AS THE COACHELLA FESTIVAL, WHY?

The following is copied from the Coachella Festival website:

May I use a stove to cook?

Not sure but I can see why they they wouldnt rule out someone having one too many and having a BBQ or stove fall over leading to an RV fire. That could get out of control real fast!

No, you CANNOT have any type of BBQ. If you have a good inverter, you can plug a George Foreman or somethin into your car. Coachella doesn't have RV's to catch on fire, Stagecoach does, so they have a no BBQ rule across ALL campgrounds.

Just stop reading when they state the Coachella rules above.

There is no outdoor cooking whatsoever. In car camping you either need sandwiches or buy food.

Technically it says NO OUTDOOR COOKING of any kind. That mean foreman grills and all. :p

Nice thing if you have a motorhome you can use your waffle maker inside :).
Last year in tent camping there was a camp there that was full on using a griddle cooking bacon, pancakes, the smell was everywhere so I don't know how much they enforce the outdoor cooking in the rv section.
