We learned something new tonight - when to flip and when not to flip - very helpful - we had kind of been always flipping and wondered why we got the mess with sausages etc - great little gadgets. Thank you - - David & Rachel 👍

Thank you and glad you found it useful, we did the same with lots of trial and error - perhaps there is a whole cooking channel there waiting to be created 😁👍

This ia a priority for my wife, she loves these :-) Something i imagine we will use all the time, even when the van is parked on the driveway (when we get it, hopefully soon ) she will be cooking in it using the Ridge Monkey :-)

Sounds so familiar. We have a deal where I do all the cooking in Van too 😂 great tip to keep it in the oven. We don’t use ours so makes sense for us to store ours in there. I will never forget that you taught me to cook my favourite Pizza (calzone) in my favourite gadget. We owe you one big time 👍🏻😊 we can Also recommend the Ridgemonkey connect multi purpose pan and griddle 👍🏻
@VantasticAdventures
@VantasticAdventures 2 года назад
Thank you will definitely check that out as you can never have too many ridge monkeys 😂 We haven't found many places to look at them before you buy but maybe at the NEC or we will have to try fishing shops 🎣 Pizza is great fun in them too, who needs an oven (or one you don't want to ever clean) 😂👍

Hi both, After your review of the rig monkey, I order one and this weekend on a short trip out with the camper van I give it a go! Fantastic so good. Cooking in the van due to it being a little cold 🥶 outside was so easy with no mess! Thanks for your review! Regards Dave &Lyn.

Thanks for the video and demonstration. I’ve just bought a XL but it seems small. Do you think the XL is big enough ?
@johnw2758
@johnw2758 Год назад
Had a RM for quite a while and use it a lot in the house. A couple of things that would be an improvement though would be the size, I find it slightly too small (I have the XL version) for 2 'normal' slices of bread side by side. The other thing is the magnetic handle holder, if you really load up for a toastie the handles won't hold together, an option, like on the fixed handles, of some sort of clasp, would be ideal. I've actually emailed RidgeMonkey stating this and asking for suggestions. Nice demo though.
@VantasticAdventures
@VantasticAdventures Год назад
Great suggestions John, we experienced exactly the same challenges as you 👍 hope they write back as user development should be actively encouraged 🥰

Yes we have two plus the pot,my only complaint is they get far too hot and can tend to burn meat especially
@VantasticAdventures
@VantasticAdventures 2 года назад
Thanks Mike will check out the pot as not seen that before. Yes agree it can be quite fierce on the meat on anything hotter than the minimum setting on our hob, could almost do with a very shallow rack to raise it slightly 👍😁

i wish they did a bigger version like XXL (maybe they do now ), I actually use a regular frying pan more but it is good for cheesy nachos

I’ve got one because I too love a gadget but it definitely hasn’t urged me to venture in to the kitchen. Not my area of expertise. Not Julie’s either. I too challenge you to cook a three course meal in there. What’s for desert?
@VantasticAdventures
@VantasticAdventures 2 года назад
Shhh stop reminding Caroline of that 3 course meal 😂😂😂 Some things should never be recorded on camera 😬 melted ice cream? Need to have a good think before that video... We also discovered they are useful if you forget your table tennis bats if you don't like cooking 😁

Is it deep enough for a garlic baguette or do you mean a flat bread? Is it wide enough for a round pizza?
@VantasticAdventures
@VantasticAdventures 9 месяцев назад
Hello - great questions 🥰👍 You can fit a garlic baguette if you break in half, the lid needs pushing down but once closed the magnets hold in place on the handles and you get a good browning on both sides of you turn while cooking. It's not wide enough for a round pizza, we have made home made pizza but usually buy small round pizzas and fold them over like a calzone which makes them easier to cook.

I can’t find one which is as cheap as your RRP advert? Not an XL anyway! Do you know where the cheapest place to purchase one is?
@VantasticAdventures
@VantasticAdventures 2 года назад
Hello Jac, yes sorry about that we pasted the wrong link in the video caption, that price and description was for the toastie maker, ours is actually the ridge monkey connect XL but it is currently available from CampervanBits.com for £23.99 and they have them in stock, we bought things from them before like our awning storm straps and we found relatively quick delivery 📦👍😁
