Top 5 Best Camping Cooking Utensil Sets

The 5 Best Camping Utensil Sets

When using camping cookware, campsite cooks need the best camping utensil set. Just like how a home kitchen isn’t complete without its utensils and appliances, a camping kitchen needs all its supplies in order to run smoothly. Silverware sets usually include such items as a spatula, tuner fork, soup ladle, scissors, knife, tongs and assorted other cooking utensils, though you can purchase camping knife sets, camping plates, and specialized camping cutting boards to augment your collection. A camping silverware set often complements a camping cookware set perfectly when you’re camping by ensuring you have all the tools you need to create great food.

There are many cooking utensil sets on the market, so we have reviewed and ranked the best of them. When choosing a silverware set, note the items that are NOT in the travel silverware set. The reason is if you need (or think you will need or use a particular cooking utensil), then be sure it is included within the set. For instance, most camping silverware sets won’t include a camping mug or a camping kettle, so you’ll need to get those separately if you want to have them. Below are camping utensil set reviews and ratings for our favorite products.

Important Features to Consider

There are many types of camping utensils. But a camping cook may not need every utensil they may have in their chefs kitchen at home. What are the usual items that are included in a camping or BBQ cookware utility set? Here are the most common:

• Spautula
• Large soup spoon or ladle
• Large (chef) knife
• Utility scissors
• Tongs
• Camping spork

Some campers may want to expand their collection beyond what comes in their utensil kit. Dishware like roasting pans and other gear like camping can openers and collapsible measuring cups can also benefit campers.

Though most of the camping or BBQ utensils in sets like these are usually stainless steel, some are not. In a few case, the soup spoon or spatula may be made of heavy-duty heat resistant plastic. Of course, less is needed if only hiking versus camping overnight. However, be careful when using metal utensils, because it can scratch your electric skillet or carbon steel pan‘s anti-stick coating.

What are the Carrying Cases for Utensil Sets Made From?

Most camping eating utensil sets come with a carrying case made of a durable material for either outdoor use or heavy-duty use. Most carrying cases for camping eating utensil sets are made from one (or combined) materials:

• Vinyl
• Cotton
• Polyester

In almost all cases, the carrying cases will have pouches or designated places for each utensil. They will also have a zipper to open and close the case.
