Greg, mine's in the same place. And, like yours, it went off virtually any time we cooked in the "kitchen".
But, rather than moving it, I decided to replace it with a "smoke detector" type of alarm rather than the slightly cheaper "ionization type" alarm that was OEM. Ionization detectors are good for fast flare up fires, but they are bad at giving false alarms under all kinds of conditions. The "smoke detection" kind are supposedly better at detecting smoldering, slow growing fires and they are much more suited to being located close to where cooking is performed.
Since I've replaced it, I've only had a false alarm once in a while. I honestly don't know were, in the trailer, it would be better to locate one, so that was my approach. I also replaced all the ionization detectors in our house with the smoke detection kind, due to false alarms from the originals.
