Took a GSI pressure cooker on my latest camping outing at Road America's SVRA Historic Race. Cooked a chicken stew, wild rice, carrots, mushrooms and onions. cooked in stages adding shorter cooking items as I went. Total cooking time with prep 30 minutes.






Pot itself is a good anodized aluminum pot 2.5 liters, total weight under 3 pounds. Cooked rice for 15 min, added chicken for 5 min, veggies for 5 min. Cooled off the pot with cold water to release pressure between adding ingredients.

Wouldn't use for light weight travel camps but a group base camp it would be more than useful.

Looks like it could be very handy for campgrounds. How full can you fill the 2.5 liters?

3 pints food max, 4 pints liquid added. Not much larger than the 2qt MSR pot next to it. The plates are 10 inch gold pans.

I've never seen one of those but I love the idea! I picked up on pressure cooking from my grandma and all the wild game she cooked for me, you can do things that would seem impossible with other methods.

Been looking for a real small one for some time. This one is real interesting scroll thru the photos shows it in use on a PocketRocket stove.
