Reddit reviews IMUSA USA A004-70011W 1.5 Quart Aluminum Grease Dispenser, Silver

A lot of people here use the one pot system. I personally find that a little to minimalist and have a little kit I've put together over the past couple years. Mostly its just a really light weight pot, I recently got this as my main pot. Its really great because it holds quite a bit of water (I personally don't ever carry anything that holds less than a liter) has a built in strainer (make the holes bigger with a screwdriver) and is super light and cheap. Inside I put a really light plastic mug/bowl I got from my old "kettleist" cookset, a 2"x2" sponge, a 4"x3" piece of microfiber towel, my plastic collapsible spork, my stove and fuel canister, and a lighter. I really like this setup because it gives me so many option as far as cooking and drinking, makes cleanup a breeze, and is super lightweight and compact. Eventually I'm going to make a pot cozy for the main pot too, which will really help as well. A lot of people here might criticize me for the luxury of this but honestly, its really great and worth it in my opinion. It also really opens up food options because I can cook in something besides a plastic bag, which I've done plenty of and really don't enjoy.

I've tried more sophisticated things, but I keep coming back to the aluminum grease pot here: https://amzn.com/B0018EA048 It's cheap, light, fits a fuel cannister and my stove inside, and it can boil enough water for 2. I tossed the screen thing that comes with it. For drinks and oatmeal I use a 12 oz stainless lowball cup. The cup is heavy-ish so it's a luxury item, but the dual wall construction keeps my coffee warm in colder weather. Note: You can't cook in the cup because the heat won't make it to the contents (which is kind of the point of the insulation).

I don't strain it but I do try to pour off the oil while minimizing the crunchies that get in the container. I do keep it in the fridge which prevents the crunchies from turning the oil rancid. My grandmother use to keep it on the stove top but she used a strainer container like this to strain it.

I have used an alcohol stove for about 6 years and I love it. I use mine with an MSR Titan Kettle but it is about $50. A cheap option would be to use a grease pot. Loads of people swear by them. You can buy one at Walmart too. The Toaks titanium pot is around $30. People also use this mug to cook water in and claim it will boil 2 cups. Here is another grease pot that people use.

You can make a windscreen for it out of lightweight aluminum flashing or heavy duty cooking foil.

I'm new to the grease pot concept. Is it something like this :

YES. I'm not an expert on keto, but I can vouch for bacon grease. Magnificent with greens.

Get a grease catcher if you don't have one and eat up.

A Grease Pot works just fine, light and cheap.

Get a $5 Imusa mug and a taco bell spork and call it good.

I've used this setup for years and it's perfect. Granted all of my meals are just the boil water and add instant rice/.dehydrated meals.

This fits my alcohol set up (stove, windscreen, pot lifter, fuel, etc) well, and the handle is easy to get rid of. Super cheap, tough, big enough for two. My mug is a 500ml SS cheapie, way heavy, definitely looking to replace.
