Fraser Island
« on: July 14, 2025, 07:41:03 AM »
Hi
Using an Ozpig for cooking on Fraser Island (K'gari) is generally permitted, but with certain restrictions. Campfires are prohibited in most areas, but self-contained, off-the-ground cooking appliances like the Ozpig are allowed as long as they use manufactured fuel (like heat beads or charcoal) and are raised at least 20cm off the ground (Quoted from Google search)

Are there any alternatives to the Ozpig that comply with Fraser regulations?

Not sure if it is something you might like but I saw a review for the Aussie built Stov which is a flat pack gas barbie. Not cheap (around Oz Pig range) but looked good quality and would take up next to no room.

I have no affiliation with them, never even seen one, but thought it might fit.

Try a Cobb. I use mine for just about everything when on the road.

I have been to Fraser many times and I take a Webber go anywhere BBQ. Not sure if its too small for you.

I have checked with the rangers and it's fine to use - never had an issue.

Last time we went we took a Ute load of wood and had open fires…..at Dilli  Village. It’s not part of the Nat park.

Should have mention, I have a Landcruiser 76 so a weber will be no good since i don't want to fit it inside
I have a hardshell rooftop tent which mean limited roof space with twin wheel carrier.

Will get a Stov Extremely Portable gas bbq, it is compact, take no space, can carrier outside the LC76 and the wood handle is a great thought to lifting a hot plate.

Started this topic since I have specific Fraser questions

Never used a composite toilet before, always camped at Cathedral and use the fire ring there (reason for previous question) and ablution block but want to try beach camping

I have a GottaGo composite unit.

What are the best mix? Sawdust, coffee beans, block?
And best place to buy them
