It\u2019s definitely the stove you want when feeding a big crowd. However, out of all of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cleverhiker.com\/camping\/best-camping-stoves\/\">our favorite camp stoves<\/a>, this one is the heaviest and most difficult to pack.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>This stove\u2019s large frame is easy to clean, but it doesn\u2019t fold or compact. The legs are removable (and adjustable), and the windscreen detaches, but the stove still takes up a lot of space in a car. On top of that, you\u2019ll have to make room for a propane tank. This might not be a problem for someone with a truck, but doesn\u2019t work well for a Subaru driver who is also packing other camp supplies.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Despite this, we believe this stove is a great value for someone who will use it in other settings, like at home as a grill or tailgating (Camp Chef has tons of\u00a0attachments\u00a0that fit this stove). It is also the stove we would recommend for week\u2014to two-week-long camping trips.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"how-we-tested\" class=\"wp-block-group contained-content has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading contained-content has-font-32-px-font-size\" id=\"how-we-tested\">How We Tested<\/h2>\n<p>We tested this stove in several different ways.

It has the highest BTUs of any stove in our list of favorites \u2013\u2013 30,000. With great power comes the need for greater fuel. This stove took 3.2 ounces of propane to boil one liter of water. This is the highest fuel usage compared to any of the stoves in our camp stove gear guide.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>While we were testing both the boil time and cookability, we noticed how intense the flames were on this stove. It was probably overkill for our 10\u201d pot and certainly for 1 liter of water. For the amount of fuel used to power this stove, we think it would be best used for cooking large quantities of things \u2013\u2013 think chili for ten \u2013\u2013 instead of a small pot of water.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1920\" height=\"2560\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" alt=\"close up of a pot of water boiling on the Camp Chef EX60LW Explorer 2 Burner Outdoor Camping Modular Cooking Stove\" class=\"wp-image-42579 lazyload\" style=\"width:800px\" data-src=\"http:\/\/www.nezam-hormozgan.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/IMG_0665-scaled-1.jpeg\"><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The Camp Chef EX60LW Explorer 2 Burner Outdoor Camping Modular Cooking Stove boils a pot of water very, very quickly.

The flame is fierce and even on the lowest setting we can still see a sporadic flame jump up to meet the side of the pan. The massive flame paired with the large cooking surface (448 square inches) makes this stove perfect for cooking large portions for many people.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>With our standard-sized pans and pots, we were worried that the intense flame would mean the stove would have a low simmer ability. We were pleasantly surprised to find that our rice came out soft and fluffy. The boxed mix that we used also had dried red beans\u2014these weren\u2019t cooked through like the rice (other stoves on our gear guide did this better).\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>We wanted to test how evenly the burners cooked, so we threw two burger patties (in a pan) on the stove. The large flame probably helped, as it surrounded the pan. Both burgers cooked very well with an even sear.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1920\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" alt=\"Close ups of the Camp Chef EX60LW Explorer 2 Burner Outdoor Camping Modular Cooking Stove and how well it works\" class=\"wp-image-41489 lazyload\" style=\"width:800px\" data-src=\"http:\/\/www.nezam-hormozgan.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/IMG_0412-scaled-1.jpeg\"><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Cooking hamburgers on the Camp Chef EX60LW Explorer 2 Burner Outdoor Camping Modular Cooking Stove revealed its mostly even cook. \u2013 photo credit: helena Guglielmino (cleverhiker.com)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<div id=\"Metric-4\" class=\"wp-block-group contained-content has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-font-32-px-font-size\" id=\"h-portability\">Portability<\/h2>\n<p>The Camp Chef is not designed to be highly portable. This stove is cumbersome from the massive burners to the 20-pound propane tank that powers it.<\/p>\n<p>The Camp Chef has removable legs and a removable windscreen. The legs come in a bag to help transport easier, as well. We did like that the fuel attachment stays on the stove so that we didn\u2019t have to worry about losing that piece. These few features make this stove easier to transport, but overall not a top pick for portability.<\/p>\n<p>Quite frankly, we found this stove a pain to pack and get from the car to camp. We use a Subaru to get around to our favorite campsites. Usually, we pack our car to the brim so having a stove that can fold down is important. The Camp Chef doesn\u2019t fold, so we were stuck trying to fit the entire 34-inch length in the back around our other gear. On top of that, the propane tank took up precious space.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>When we got to camp, it took three trips to get the stove and all of its accessories (legs, windscreen, and fuel) out of the car. Packing up was even worse. We forgot to make room for the propane, so we had to unpack and repack the car to Tetris everything in.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1920\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" alt=\"the Camp Chef EX60LW Explorer 2 Burner Outdoor Camping Modular Cooking Stove in a gorgeous, rocky high desert camp ground\" class=\"wp-image-41524 lazyload\" style=\"width:800px\" data-src=\"http:\/\/www.nezam-hormozgan.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/IMG_0399-scaled-1.jpeg\"><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">This is a portable stove, in that it can be set up anywhere, but that doesn\u2019t mean it isn\u2019t heavy and bulky.

Though it required some assembling, we broke no sweat putting it together. The fuel was easy to attach to the stove<\/p>\n<p>When we got to camp, we pulled out the stove and set out to put the legs on the stove. They slid right on, which was nice. We felt it was easier assembling this with two people, though. The windshield also slid easily onto the stove.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The fuel line stays connected to the stove and was easy to attach to the propane tank. There is no self-ignition switch on this stove, so you must bring a lighter. Though not the end of the world, we didn\u2019t want to have to carry more things to operate this stove (especially after lugging a propane tank into camp).\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Another thing that didn\u2019t feel easy was the intensity. flame. Sure, it was fun to watch and it cooked the hell out of our food, but we felt like we couldn\u2019t turn our back on this stove. On other stoves, we feel relatively safe setting up our tent, playing fetch with the dog, or even reading a book while cooking. On this stove, flame lapped at the sides of our pans and pots even when it was on low.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>We did appreciate the stand-alone aspect of this stove \u2013 it meant we could keep our camp table clear for cooking prep. Its open design also makes it a breeze to clean, though it leaves nowhere to set our spatula when cooking.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" alt=\"the Camp Chef EX60LW Explorer 2 Burner Outdoor Camping Modular Cooking Stove in a gorgeous, rocky high desert camp ground\" class=\"wp-image-41522 lazyload\" style=\"width:800px\" data-src=\"http:\/\/www.nezam-hormozgan.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/IMG_0393-1-1024x768-1.jpeg\"><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">While this isn\u2019t the easiest stove to set up, you don\u2019t need a table, and it works great for more involved meals and larger groups. \u2013 photo credit: helena Guglielmin (cleverhiker.com)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<div id=\"should-you-buy\" class=\"wp-block-group contained-content has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-font-32-px-font-size\" id=\"h-should-you-buy-the-camp-chef-ex60-lw-camp-stove\">Should You Buy the Camp Chef EX60 LW Camp Stove?<\/h2>\n<p>This stove is a great option for a very specific type of camper or stove user.
