Bob: I redesigned the muffler system on my Westy and added something on the order of a "Heater Box". It works like a low temp oven around 250 degrees and works well on such things as roasts, turkeys, chickens, etc. I just wrap the item of flesh in some heavy duty aluminum foil and put it in the box before leaving and depending on size, three to four hours the feast is ready to consume. I really can't understand why such an item was originally designed into the system. This is really efficient as you really save on propane by utilizing the heat of the exhaust system. Victor...
