Step 1
Look for the right balance of capacity and weight/volume. Though you're far less limited in a car than when you're backpacking, you've still got a car to pack.
-
Step 2
Seek out nonstick cookware. Cleanup is doubly troublesome when camping.
-
Step 3
Make sure the cookware can stand high heat. Sometimes camping stoves don't allow simmering.
-
Step 4
Get at least a skillet and a saucepan, preferably two of each, to allow for flexibility in culinary experimentation.

on 9/20/2006 There is a great product out there from a company called Solon, which is owned by Mossberg. It is an inexpensive set of lightweight wooden utensils (tongs, spatula, cooking fork and grill cleaner) that cost around a dollar to a buck and a half. It's lightweight to carry to the campsite, and when you're done you can toss it on to the campfire, or leave on the ground since it's biodegradable. No clean-up, no lugging back with you. I carry two sets in for each day I'm camping.
