Cooking with Fossil Fuels

Propane is probably the most popular cooking fuel in rural areas. It is readily available and clean burning. It has application as a space heating water heating fuel as well and is fairly safe to handle and transport.

The other common fossil fuels, diesel and gasoline, are much less well suited to cooking. Diesel would not be described as "clean buring" and gasoline is simply dangerous. Both of these fuels are options, but they are not very good ones.
