I have the Firebox, Firebox Nano, and Firebox Nano Gen 2; so I'm covered no matter the camping situation, whether in car or on foot. They are brilliant!
Line the cup handles with 3mm internal diameter silicone tubing. Same method applies for the tiny handle on the lid. Drip some mineral oil into the tube to help it along. Double-sided spoon/fork combo if you really want it ultralight. Alternatively, titanium spoon and titanium chopsticks. You can also use the chopsticks to skewer stuff to barbeque, and also use them to lift pots without handles off the flame. If you're going to use the chopsticks as skewers, you will need a bit of large inner diameter silicone tubing (depending on the thickness of your chopsticks) to fit over the ends so you don't burn your fingers.
I don't do a lot of back packing but I have a 1942 military mess kit that I use while camping. We will hike in a mile or two and set up camp. I use a lot of military gear due to having a lot of knowledge about these systems. I served 8 years in Army National Guard in Kentucky.
If I'm not overland camping I love to bushcraft camp. You may know that bushcraft gear and kits are not lightweight. You can mix some lightweight items like Toaks titanium cups, lids, pots, etc, into your gear. I have my favorite bushcraft backpack, something similar to a large Alice pack and it alone weighs 6.5 pounds, have it set up for a trip this weekend into the Monongahela Wilderness area of West Virginia. The backpack and a chest pack total 29.58 pounds including food and water for three days. I love to cook and experiment with different cuisines but one item I always make on the trail is bannock bread which I usually make for breakfast with bacon and eggs. I like to bring an Expedition Research bushcraft grill and use it for steaks and bacon.
I have the GSI Bugaboo Small Camper Set for bigger group trips. It has two pots (1.5L and 2L and an 8" skillet that all pack into a bag and share a single pot handle that snaps onto each one. It is big enough that I can fit the handle, a canister, my stove, both sizes of my Wildo Fold-A-Cup and a lighter inside. It's great for multiple people, but way too much for solo trips. I'm still deciding what I want to make my solo kit look like, so this was super useful!
Toaks makes great budget friendly Ti pots and accessories. Their woodstoves are also pretty fun to use. More finicky than using say a firebox nano, but when they are working properly they kick ass. Alot of ultralight hiking supplies can be found on the cheap at sites like aliexpress. Lixada brand carries those ti pot stands, and ti pots that are identical to the toaks (which is also made in china)
Those bic mini's last even longer than you think. I had one run out of fuel when I was thruhiking the PCT, but it still sparked, I used it to light my stove until the end. I just picked up a Titanium grill from Self Reliance Outfitters, that I can't wait to use. Doesn't have legs, so you have to use a rock or stakes to support it. Great video man!
I bring a big 3L Primus stove and pot. While the weight is high, it can cook for 4-5 people at once, with good fuel efficiency and fast boil times. I've been looking into getting a skillet as well but haven't pulled the trigger yet. If I did bring one I'd leave one of the pots behind (the primus comes with 2). Not sure how I'd pack the skillet without it taking too much space tho. If I'm going solo, I'll just take a BRS stove and freeze-dried food along with a titanium pot. For my "spork" I bring a Humangear plastic fork and spoon that clip together to make for a long-handled spoon but can be used separately too. I picked it up on Amazon for like 10 bucks. It has to be plastic because the Primus pots are coated, so metal tools would destroy the coating.
Can't beat the Vargo BiFold grill , it's great. For lots of years my cook kit has been the Evernew titanium Appalachian set at 5.67 ounces. At times I include a Evernew titanium ( Non Stick ) frying pan at 4.2 ounces. It's 6.5 inches wide and 1.5 inches high. I like the titanium because it's light and it cools quicker then anything else. I'm sure you will like the Evernew titanium frying pan and the M.S.R. Spatula makes a good companion with the frying pan.
John you be very careful with that thin Titanium frying pan with the non stick surface mate. Do not let it over heat other wise that non-stick surface will gas off and its highly toxic you know, anf it will go into your food. Yes Titanium is an excellent lightweight metal, but your little alcohol stove has no heat control and that thin Titanium will locally over heat where the flame is concentrated. Personally I prefer S/S mainly for the health aspects and its durability. A bit heavier yes, but health outweighs everything else. Other wise a nice video mate, very enjoyable.
My basic kit is the same Toaks 750 pot, except with the bail handle, a pocket rocket 2 stove, bic mini and 2” cut off the end of a full size kitchen sponge ( the yellow ones with the green scratch pad on the back. ). One of those S2S accordion style collapsible cups and a long handle spoon. I keep a second bic mini in my first aid kit, just in case. If I’m not worried about weight, I have a full tailgating kitchen setup to take to PSU games. I can usually find some stuff in that bin that works for whatever situation pops up.
I’ll probably try an alcohol stove at some point, but my 11year son usually comes with me. I want to keep it safe enough so he can start learning to use it.
Will be the first overnighter for me this summer. Looking to keep my base weight at 15#, food @ 5#, and water between 5 to 7#. I think that will be a good balance.
Just got into bike-pack-camping. My setup is heavy and includes a trailer. I can get away with a bit more weight than a backpacker but still looking to reduce where I can. Good info here and I will be watching a lot of your videos.
My pack changes depending on my trip and length. I can do ultralight when needed and standard when needed. Most trips i am around 18-19 pound mark, if I carry a few extra luxuries it's around 23 pounds. Worth it in most circumstances
That grill is cool. Don’t know if I can justify a steak...but the more I think about it...hmm. Also I have that same spatula. I don’t backpack with it but it’s great for frontcountry.
I have a jetboil zip that I replaced the burner and valve with a cheaper one that simmers much better. It mounted right onto the coupler so it was an easy mod.
Have you seen the modification to the spigyver stove where he uses the top and bottom instead of the middle and bottom. By using the top as the insert it stiffens up the top and makes it less fragile to the heat from the flames. I replaced my 2.0 with this modification and looking forward to trying it out this season. The windscreen makes a big difference on canister stoves too. I am using extra wide tinfoil that has been folded over 3 or 4 times to stiffen it up. I have a short windscreen for the alcohol stove and a tall one for the canister stove. My grill is an aluminum small grill tray. A couple bucks at big box store so no big deal to replace. Only downfall is you need to set it on the coals or on a couple logs to either side of the coals. Stove(s) Spigyver stove, Amazon canister stove that goes on top of the canister and another Amazon stove that connects to the canister via a tube. (Larger cook area for a fry pan and I can use it with propane in the winter) Cookware: Aluminum cup with folding handles from WalMart (~$5), Lodge 6.5" pan, Lodge 10" round griddle (the cast iron is for when camp is close to the trailhead) Utensils: Ozark Trail long handled spoon (
@@john_kelley Here's his video on the mod. (I normally wouldn't put someone else's YT video in the comments, but since you attached one of his videos to yours, I hope it's ok.) ua-cam.com/video/3yKV8evq9mU/v-deo.html
I like that little stove, haven’t used one before though. Have the same pot and have just used the camp fire to heat water or cook food. Going to go watch the video of the making of that stove now.
@@john_kelley do you find that the stove flares up with you use it with the pot stand vs using it without? Thats one thing that scared me about the stove I made in this design. the moment I would go to take the stove off it would flare up and spit out flaming alcohol on the ground (ive never had this happen with others Ive made), and if I used it with a pot stand it was a little more aggressive than I would have liked.
Yes, titanium is an excellent inert material that is great for boiling water. However, many people have had problems with using titanium pots for even simple actual cooking. Frying pans are especially problematic and require both skill and luck to prevent burning the pan/food. I'd get another cheap, lightweight Walmart frying pan, instead. Yet, YMMV.
I like to cook so I’ve been using the Trangia UL 27. I don’t take all of it, but it does a great job. I can cook for 30 minutes on one fill up of the Trangia burner.
I gave up on the flimsy windscreens and tinfoil DIY’s and bought a fold out windscreen. It had 10 sections and was about 20” long, but I took it apart and only bring 4 sections, about 8”. Weighs only 2ozs and the pegs at the end push into the ground to hold it up agains the wind. So less frustrating.
You gotta get those capillaries just right with this stove. I made one with too many and it literally spewed out burning alcohol everywhere. If you make it right its an awesome stove.
Also if you are a cheapo like me and you still like frying up stuff on a frying pan every once in awhile, imusa makes a 6" aluminum fry pan that only weighs 3.8oz after you take the handle off.
I love you stuff keep it coming I like to use aluminium cake tins they are so cheap and with a pot handle work a treat and a pie dish as a lid I can put hot coal on the tops for more dish's I also use the UCO quotro grill Hevery but fantastic
If I'm going heavier I'll use the chinese Etekcity with the piezo igniter. I'm about to buy my first alcohol stove kit that'll save me ~4 oz in my backpacking gear so def excited about that! I'll then have to make a video on it! Great video!
@@john_kelley Ya know I was wondering in which video I would give you a shout out....I now know haha. Gave love to Jeremiah in my latest video and your backpacking podcast. I'll also throw this video in the cards when I make that video!
JK hello man how how you doing! Man That was awesome seeing your gear that you use when you are out. My wife got me a MSR non-stick pot set for Christmas a couple years back for one of my kayak camping trips that I was going to do. Man I love the pot set that she got me and it work very well so far that I have had it. Easy to clean and put away. Awesome video man you know I love it when you throw your funny parts in there.
I'd like to try an alcohol stove but so worried about knocking it over! Last few years I've been using a MSR pocket rocket cook kit that weights about 10oz i think, but it works for me. As far as gear in general - Im not much of a gram weenie, comfort is king 👌
May have to pick up that folding grill! A steak here and there sure would get my bf to join me on more weekend trips. Also, what have I done wrong in my life to get an ad for the Kardashians after this video?!
You could probably carry one of those disposable metal baking tins and make a fry pan/ griddle, pot or a wind screen out of that. Might last a couple of times if you were careful with it. Imjs.
If you are bringing meat on the trail how are you keeping it from spoiling? Eggs you can do farm fresh and keep at room/ outside temp but how are you doing meat that way?
I keep a mini bic along with a mini ferro rod in case anything happens to the lighter. I've seen the buttons get depressed in the pack and people's pockets. I know an old guy who swore if you wrap the end in duct tape it would stay good for years. He pulled one out from 10 years ago and sparked it, but it was completely empty.
@@john_kelley it's this powder cleaner. You rinse the pan, sprinkle the powder on, scrub with paper towel. Then wash clean with dish soap. It can clean just about any stained pan I've ever had.
Good god what reality do you live in, I have a MSR microrocket and my Stanley adventure pot just barely fits on it and boiling water never tipped it over. It’s just physics, even 240 mls of water is enough to keep the pot in place.

You know what doesn’t weight anything to carry in? A rock to cook your steak on and your spork to flip it with haha
I never seen a rock that doesn't weigh anything and if it is pretty light they usually crack from the heat. Nope no thanks

The most widely used unit of measurement in the world for weight is grams. Please add grams to your weight references my friend.
