What's your favorite way of making popcorn on the road? What's your favorite recipe? This is my second hand cranked popper that I bought on bidding wars for 5 bucks:) My first one of 10 yrs finally had a hole burnt through it from too much of this.:marshmallow: I hope that this one seasons well and lasts another 10 years.:)

All of the above, but one of our favorites is the boy scouts microwave brand. And yes, Steve, we DO have one just like yours. A gift from my sister about ten years ago. Still works great!

Not lazy, just convenient.

I had one of those poppers years ago and wore it out.

I camp off grid so I don't have the convenience to plug into a tree:D

If it doesn't have full hook ups, we don't go there.

I can cook everything in the world and spend all evening at it. Popcorn....well, it's just a diversion for me;) Don't see any reason to make it more complicated than it really is:popcorn:

This is pretty much the way we are now. On occasion, we like to dry camp but those places are so remote we have to carry so much "stuff" it becomes inconvenient, and if you run out of something, a 3 hour trip to get "anything" sort of "ain't fun".

All we need is 30 amp service for a long weekend. We plan to dry camp with our 3 little boys in the near future, probably after we upgrade trucks so we can take on additional payload of a generator, fuel, fresh water, and gear. An Alaskan trip is in the infancy planning stages (3 years out) and we'll have plenty of microwave popcorn (and essentials ) on board to satisfy the boys.

Brimm's, eh? We've tried them all and have settled on the Kirkland/Costco brand, but we'll have to try Brimm's to be fair. :popcorn:

We often camp off the grid, but have a generator for coffee, microwave and...most important of all...the ice maker. :cool: :thumbsup:

Even day old popcorn is better than a bowl of soggy chips.:popcorn::popcorn:
I shaked on some buffalo seasoning last night and as much as I thought that I wouldn't like it I thought that it was awesome! :thewave:
