Added forgotten issue about sink size...

get a bigger pan!

 

How practical! xD
 

Here is the pan that we use, stored in our largest trailer drawer:

I guess the drawer could accommodate something larger, but here is that skillet on the stove:

The green thing is a ruler, for (heh) scale.

 

We used to visit friends at their former resort in the Canadian bush.  They no longer ran the resort but still spent their summers on the lake and cooked with their original resort equipment.  Shore lunch, usually with the day's fish and with potatoes and onions from the garden, was a standard dinner.  The skillet was big enough to fry fish and potatoes for a dozen people at once, and when the cooking was done the cleanup was easy: pour the grease onto the fire and douse the skillet in the lake. We'd both love to have a pan like that, but have no idea where we'd put it.  Anything much bigger than we already have, and I'd be posting to the Cleaning things that don't fit in your sink topic.

 

There is also the problem of Leftovers Discipline: the more leftovers we have, the less discipline we exert.  Something's gotta give - either the size of our servings, or our waistbands. :)
