If you can put a tank on it we have probably used it. The Coleman Crock Pot tends to burn everything in the middle of the bottom. We created a flame spreader and attached to the burner after taking an hour to scrub the carbonized roast out of the pot. They have a new model out that is a combination crock/skillet/griddle which looks like they may have learned their lesson, but it is pretty expensive. The propane skillet, on the other hand, is a joy to cook with. I have used it to do everything from pan sear steaks, salmon and tuna, to making jambalaya, meat sauce for spaghetti to eggs, pancakes and sausage. Piece of cake to clean as well.
My buddy was getting ready for a week-long fishing trip and had all of his gear laid out in the living room when his wife2B walked in. While she was looking over the coffeemaker, crockpot, skillet, lanterns, oven and stove, all propane powered, he told her the propane microwave was still in the storage building. She was telling her co-workers the next day, and mentioned the microwave while the electrician was walking by, stopping him dead in his tracks, while he set her straight. When she got home, my buddy couldn't get out of town fast enough
