How do you make your popcorn on the road?

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. 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've tried to perfect it but I think that it's impossible.

And our mantra:
If it doesn't have full hook ups, we don't go there.

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.
