If you're cooking on a propane/butane camp stove like the Jetboiler, or even in the embers of a wood fire, you'll want something to in which to boil water and warm food. The Stanley is dead simple. It's solid, has a clever handle, and two insulated cups rest inside. And there's enough extra room to pack some extra stuff like camp soap.
Stanley Camp 24oz. Cook Set
WHERE TO BUY
THE ESSENTIALS
Importance: Handy to important.
Bottom line: When you need to boil water or warm up food on your camp stove or near a camp fire, you'll be glad to have a pot to do it in!
Recommended for: Go-bag, vehicle.
Be aware: It's not expressly designed to be put on a fire, per se. We've found it's fine to sit near the fire, or, better, on the embers once they burn down. There is a plastic piece on the top which will melt. Otherwise, it's a hardy piece of kit.
FIELD NOTES
We like the Stanley 24-ounce Camp Cooker and nesting cups. Lots. It's just solid and as expected. Our only issue is that if the top isn't perfectly secured — and the cups settled against something — it can rattle around. We cut a sponge in half and included a tiny bottle of camp soap inside. You can also opt to dump the cups and store other stuff inside to save space in your go-bag.
OFTEN BOUGHT WITH
Camp soap like Sea To Summit Wilderness Wash, effective for hands to dishes and is the right size at 3.3 ounces.
