These pots are sold everywhere in South Africa and you can pick them up for as little as R60 from Checkers or most shops that sell braai equipment. They are quite heavy but really worth the money.

The reason for this is they last years. Whether you just want to go away camping or need to stay in the wilderness for years this is the pot you need to take with.

These pots are called bush babies if I am correct. They are made of cast iron and will probably be the most heavy thing in your survival kit or bug out vehicle or bag.

Some stainless steel pots are not nearly as thick as they should be and soon after some fires they just break and get holes. These dont. Even after years of use they last. Really worth it.
