I was over at a friends house the other day and he showed me his camping box. It was a fold out plastic box made by Campmate that held a camp stove,  all of your silverware, Dishes and other necessities. Unfortunatly this box is now discontinued. So now I am on a quest for the ultimate camp box. I want to keep all of my kitchen items in once place so I can load up and go. What are you guy's using for camp boxes. Here is the campmate so you have an idea of what I'm looking for. Also if you see one somewhere pick it up for me.

I use this Coleman grill which came with a red tote.  Inside the tote is plenty of space and side pockets.  Rather than use the pockets we bought 2 tupperware type containers that go side by side to hold all of our cooking/eating stuff.  It all zips up into a super convenient bag.

I just had a bad flashback
the ones we had in boyscouts weighed a ton
I hated having to help lug those things around

edit to add, this is only for "camping" from the vehicle in close proximity to campsite.

you do realize this thing is 26 pounds?    don't you?   if you have to hike anywhere from the car to the campground you are screwed.  get an esbit or alcohol stove, a titanum pot with lid, a ti spork and some freeze dried food.   it's cheaper, healthier, and lighter.

U mm no shit sherlock. Just by design who in their right mind would even begin to think this is a back packing item.

I have one from LL Bean.  I don't love it though––it is not big enough to fit "everything" but it is still damn big and heavy.

When I was a kid the next door neighbor had built a small plywood chuckbox.  It was little and light but still fit a huge amount of food, spices, utensils, etc.
