Could just get a power inverter and a Foreman grill. I actually have a Foreman grill that I've never used. I guess I like greasy food.

Reminds me of the days I use to warm up a cans of beans on the exhaust manifold of my old Ford truck...until a can blew up one day...truck smelled like burnt beans the rest of the time I owned it and I caught the new buyer sniffing and trying to figure it out when he test drove it.

I cook my beans in a campfire but always put a hole in the top to vent. I sometimes put cans of corn or beans in the fire without venting just to watch them blow up.
I know dangerous...

I remember hearing that the coating inside the can (some kind of varnish) breaks up as heat is applied and gets in your food... not too healthy

I actually tried to hook a crock pot up to a power inverter, it does not work well. Heating element require a lot of amps.

A biker buddy of mine used to have a metal wire-frame cup holder bolted between the heads of his old Harley. He'd pre-make a few hot dogs (or corn-dogs) and wrap them in tin foil then heat and eat while on road trips.

It takes all kinds I guess.
