I have been using my POT for sooo many years..... When I have a gear sell, I will never sell my POT.
My POT has never failed me when used correctly.

NC I like it for the most part. Water boils pretty fast in it and it doesn't take up that much room in my pack. My only complaint is I wish I could fix a fuel canister in it, but I can fit a jetboil canister in my cup so it isn't that big of a deal.

I forget the brand, but an aluminum coated campers frying pan, and if car camping I also take a saucepan for more involved cooking.

I never camp or backpack without my trangia tea kettle though. That's my favorite piece of cooking related equipment.

I use the Snow Peak Titanium Trek 700 Mug. It is a great cookpot (w/ lid) and doubles as a coffee mug. It also has the markings for 8 oz., 12 oz., 16 oz. etc. which helps a lot as I am not very good at "eyeballing" amounts.

I use one of those black anodized aluminum jobs from (can't remember the name of the company that the guy who sells them goes by, small online outfit, one of you prolly knows what I'm talking about).

It's basically like the wal*mart grease pot, except it's anodized and the lip curls outside.

I have a lightweight ultra cheapo aluminum 1.25 liter mug. I also have a traditional titanium backpacker pot from about 10 years ago.

I don't take a pot, nor fuel. Feels like cheating. Best to kill the cow fresh, light a fire w/ found glass, eat w/ hands. No spork.

Seriously on the 1st part. Where does it end, a t.v.?

I've been using the same 1.9 l. titanium pot since titanium pots first came out. It was part of a set of two, but we gave away the smaller pot. It's a bit battered, but seemingly indestructible.

I remember POT from electronics class. A potentiometer is a variable tapped resistor, recognizable by its three connection points.

GSI Double Boiler. Looks like they improved them by supplying a real lid and rubber coating the handles.

Stainless cup. Use it to boil water and to drink out of.

If I feel I need something larger, I use the wally world grease pot.

REI Evernew Ti 1.9 liter pot (without the non-stick) for me. I even cook pasta or rice in it if I can pay attention to it and keep stirring, stirring, stirring.

Audio taper pots for me.

I have a one liter stainless Coleman pot with a bail handle and tight-fitting lid.
It is my favorite solo vessel.

The three-liter version is good for up to three or four people.


The big one in the rear.

Actually, Solo in warm weather, I usually don't take a pot, bowl, stove or any tools for food preparation other than a knife. I just bring food I don't have to cook. I'm thinking of taking the aluminum mug more often, so I can cook up something on a whim if I want to.
