Gear Review: Stanley Cooking Sets 

I am a Huge STANLEY COOKSET Fan. I own and have used all of those sets extensively. There is an effective way to make those Cooksets almost completely non-stick! That a small, reasonable amount of olive oil or vegetable oil (liquid only, not sprays) and put some in the bottom and around the sides. Heat over your fuel stoves or campfire's edge. Long enough to get the oils really hot without scorching the oils. You can use that oil or discard it. Next cook as you normally would making CERTAIN YOUR HEAT IS LOWER IN TEMPERATURE THAN YOU USED TO HEAT YOUR OILS. Doing that will assure an almost non-stick cleanup once your foods are ready. Chefs ALWAYS PREHEAT their stainless cookware pots and pans to have that easy cleanup. Now then, that little 2 Cups (aka Green Cups) Set is great for deep frying fresh boneless chicken thighs and breasts! Seriously. Take along some flour, dry milk (water added) and coat the chicken. Fry it as you would at home with NO MORE THAN HALF FULL OF OIL. Comes out perfect. Doing something like that makes a full-on meal with a veggie or rice instead of boring heat and eat camp food. You can bread seafood like Scallops or white fish the same way. I've collected STANLEY Cooksets for decades. I believe I own all of the ones they make, including their most recent releases. Enjoy!

Thanks for this video. Stanley tools and this Stanley are different company’s. This Stanley is older

food for thought... maybe adding a green Scotch-Brite pad for cleanup they work great for cleaning your pot and pan on the fly

I have the two small pots and literally use them every day. I'm quite convinced that this cookware would last a lifetime without any issues.

I use the Stanley cook set. It’s great and there are tons of mods that you can do to personalize it. Very reliable and durable

I've got the smaller one with the nesting cups, take it in my backpack all the time!

I love cooking so when we camp I can watch you cook

ive used 6hr fuel food warmer to cook with. heats food nicely and boils water good too

Excellent video! I'm into gear. And Stanley puts out some nice budget friendly gear.

For the green tab on the lid another RU-vidr suggested turning the the lid so the tab is facing away from the fire/heat source presenting less surface area to get hot reducing the likelihood of it melting.

Good review, literally decades ago, my family of 5 did alot of camping out and that meant lots of meals over the fire, we had handles on our cook items (Coleman that still work well decades later as I have them they just aren't used as often. My Mother learned how to make a handle potholder and it lasted the rest of her lifetime. Those looms with latch hook can make a great handle covering when moving the pot around on the fire or taking it off the fire, a little more hooking and it will slide on and off the Handle easily.

I love Stanley pots. Great video brother!

I have all three and I totally love them. Take care man

I like this gear review...I will order one , for my BugOutBag.

I didn't know they made a super large one. I might have to get one.

They make two more sizes, I just got the Cook and store set, comes with a 32oz pot and set of screw top plastic storage containers that fit into the pot. The largest and newest is the Base Camp, has four bowls, plates, forks, dish drainer, skillet and 3qrt pot. Good for families.

Thanks for the links for the items.

Good review & video . Some peoples videos are so jerky that you almost get sea sick , also you get to the point . Others turn a 10 minute video into 30 unnecessarily . Thanks again for the great review .

There i was watching RU-vid , then a video came up about you . Holy cow ,The Angry Prepper ..I had no idea you was a real "Hero' .. I'm truly floored ...I have so much respect for you sir ...

Nice set. I will be buying some.

Stanley outdoor gear like this goes back to 1913....so...not recent that stanley" just got into "thermos type products.

Nice review. I always pack a lightweight work glove in mine to use as a pot holder. You can stick a ferro rod and lighter inside the cups too before packing away. Make use of all that empty space.

Great review. Thank you. I almost bought some exotic brand at 3 times the price.

Nice job here Jason - this is prepping, like you talked about recently.

Thanks for the video bro, I think I'll actually buy them, have you tested the clam shell Ozark mess kit ?

Good video. I bought the one on the left of the screen that comes with the two cups. I also bought one that you didnt show, its like the two pots that you showed but it came with a container a little smaller than the pot and 3 little containers for spices. I just used that one for an overnight canoe trip. All are made well and clean easily. I think stanley is really making a good light weight product for backpacking or canoeing. If your on facebook we have all our overnight canoe trips posted. Pics and maps of all the rivers that we have paddled. Look up jolly roger paddles and you should be able to see it. Thanks again.

stanley tools and stanley outdoor thermos.... totally different companies. however the son of william stanley jr... who made the thermos is the stanley in morgan stanley financial

Wow! I didn't know that Stanley had not one but three mess kit products. This was for sure a good review!

Im the king of the Stanley cook kit.

I've just started adding some of these items to my camping gear. I'm going to be car camping soon so I want to figure out what I need initially to get started.

The city always calls you back. Its the food Bro.. Full moon Pizza 186 st . The Market, the fish guy, the cheese guy, the pasta guy..Bronx is King

These sets look great for on the motorbike good to see them in video to get a feel of the size of them cheers dude 👍

Nice vid - very thoughtful and articulate!!! I see you are new to the game so I have subbed to encourage your journey.

Nice review. I have the small adventure cook kit but have not seen the larger two kits. Thank you.

i love my Stanley sets, just half of them i haven't gotten a chance to use because they are new, i also noticed how those sets like to jump out of my hands too, i was dropping stuff left and right, glad its made sturdy, good video

Nice review. You helped me out buddy.

What do you tote those around in, when you go out?

Great video, man. Thank you

I bought the first one at cabelas nvr used it yet bt its light think it will be a gd piece of gear thx

Thank you AP,for the presentation!So,the handles don't detach if you slide the lock ring out?That used to be how they worked.Great review!

Thanks for the demo.

Greetings from Newburgh! I recently learned of you through Magic and have been playing catch up. Although older, I like the videos, so far and look forward to catching up to the more current offerings.

Are there any problems with the adventure two cook pot?

Lmao I dropped the ladle/spatula the same way. They just go poppin out.

Great video and really hard to beat these products especially at their price point

Brought a Stanley thermos flask a few months a go must admit it's pretty nice and keeps drinks hot for 24 hours .Also saves money not having to boil the kettle all the time

nice review. straight and to the point. way to keep it 100. I have the adventure cook set in my backpack. so were you Bruce Banner Prepper before they made you angry? lol. subbed.

great review i like them pots got to get one peace

hey. Thanks for your review. I like it very much that you remain very factual. I will probably choose the adventure set. All the best and keep going. Greetings from Germany Hessen. LG niko

Good video Do the pot burn easy when near or the fire.

Stanley cook sets are made by a company called PMI. Stanley tools are owned by Black and Decker. Two totally different companies, not related.

I think you got it together!

I love the 2 cup cook pot for solo use. ... But I never actually use the cups while camping. I keep a isobutane canister or 2, a BRS stove, a bottle of soap and a wash cloth in there instead and have a GSI clone nesting cup on the outside.

Great products, i didnt know about the bigger set. Just an fyi, once you replace the tab with a split ring on the adventure cup, you can hang it over a fire by the ring. Works great for boiling water, but i wouldn't really cook food like that. For just water you can see the steam and vibration when it starts to boil. I reopen it with a multi tool and hot pad.

Great job displaying the different kits. I find that the Stanley sets beg to be customized/modified. They are fun and tuff gear but very heavy.

Well done thank you. I will be purchasing based on your review.

They are the same stanley? That make tools and cookwares?

Great video brother and very informative!! Lots of information and good quality video....I enjoyed the video enough to like and of course subscribe... Alabama Bushcrafters!!

I have the medium size for the family and a folding stereo stove it works great

Thanks for the comparison; I appreciate your style. I want to change from the Trangia cooking set to Stanley's stainless steel, so your review is valuable. Stanley now makes a stainless steel frying pan in addition to the sets you reviewed. The frying pan has a 3 layer bottom that helps with even distribution of heat. My question: Do these cook pots also have a 3 layer bottom? Or, are they a single layer (like the sides of the pots)? I enjoy your videos (just subscribed). Thank you!

Damn this was an OLD ANGRY Video.

thanks for the video i like to see before I buy

Nice job.

You are the only guy i have watched so far that has actually said if those tabs will melt. We should only cook over coals unless boiling water but thanks for putting that out there.

The "Keyring" mod on the lid is the best Mod you can do to this cook set, IMO

Put the lid on the pot, hold it up so we can see it. Weigh everything individually. Are they aluminum or steel? I did not hear you say which.

Are they stainless or aluminum ?

Just ordered the smallest one from your amazon link. Thanks

the tab will melt but these little pots are great to fix a pkg.of raman noodles in.if i am going to be out a few days i take several packs of raman.

Lol.... I've melted mine ... the key ring is an awesome idea

Ty for the share

I have not had the piece on top melt in around 10 years . I cook more on rocks , hot coals or propane stove .

nice job sir

Where can still find the two pot set? Good review.

Good video. You might want to take a look at the Adventure Prep Eat & Fry pan set by Stanley. Just like all the other Adventure Sets, it has the folding handle and lid. The unique features that are included are the plates, sporks (2 of them), the cutting board which is a non folding oval shape and a trivet to place under the hot fry pan. It also has the spatula that comes with the other two sets you have. I think it would find a home in a trailer or camper or just car camping.

After cooking sticky things, rinse out then add water and put on the fire until hot and let soak.

Love it.

After watching your live stream at the capital I am getting some of these might need them

Good info bro👍......why u call yourself the angry prepper ? Seemed pretty calm to me

That 2set pot is expensive. Probably could get a better deal somewhere else on different brands.

I have the Adventure cook kit. Really sturdy and compact. Not crazy about the heavy green cups but wtf. Btw Stanley sell extra lids for $6 each that fit the CSI 16 oz stainless cup.

24 oz. camp pot on sale for $9 at Amazon. Probably today only.

Looks like a quality set of pots etc. Not so the plastic gimmicky bits n' pieces, I don't need them! They will obviously hold the rest of your cooking equipment, but titanium has come down quite a lot in price these days ! A serious consideration if you are carrying all your equipment? Thank you.

I have the first one, it is great for 1 person

Yeah Stanley makes pretty good products.

Nice Eberlestock Pack.

Well, is the tab silicon or rubber? Does silicon melt?

Have you tried the Stanley coffee press? Great for camping although I also use it at home.

There is a couple others, too.

I use the smaller one its easier to carry and my propane stove plus a lighter fits right in it

Those vents look like they would work for straining. perfect for pasta.

Look me up Pawling, Dutchess Co

Just found you, just subbed you. -Corey @ P2T

The handles don't get that hot have them and used them a lot.

thanks for the video... just so you know the Stanley tool brand is a completely different company then the stanly camping brand. just same name.

I don't think they make the 13-piece set anymore. I never see them anymore in 2021

We love your channel you just don't know your channel is going to get big that means that you're going to get more more prescribing to to your Your channel
