Russ has just made 48 and all have been bought but I am sure he will be making some more
Shiny - brand new, needed at the moment or " That looks good I'll buy that"
iv made stews in mine. just chop up some meat, potato, onion, peas and gravy powder and boil it for a while. chop it up small to cut cooking times. works prety well if your going solo. lately its only been used for making brews.

I've used my crusader quite a few times for the usual brew and rat pack and the occasional rice or porridge (oatso simple sachet with water and a spoon of powdered milk, nice and easy way to start the day).
Also managed bannock a couple of times. Carry the bannock mix in a ziploc, add water to mix and put the dough into the mug and cook on a gentle heat. It needs to be turned out of the mug every now and again to cook evenly, or lay the mug on it's side next to a fire to cook in the radiant heat. I found it's very important to keep the dough quite dry. It has a nasty habit of sticking to the mug otherwise!
All in all a nice little experiment. Makes a nice change, eating a savoury bannock (jerky & onion powder) main while the dessert bannock (coconut, almons or dried fruit) is cooking away.

It would of for me, I can just about make a cup of tea
and i can't manage that without spilling it on the floor...
sausage and beans tasted great, stuck like hell.
stiring with a stick to get in the corners sounds like a good idea.
i think my sons swedish army trangia cook set may be better for proper cooking, but for brews, boil in the bag or dehydrated crusader is good
must try and make a lid, would a beer can cut up be heavy enough

I have to agree here. I never realised he was a member on here. I ordered a Tatonka Tarp, 2 x Crusader Cups, 2x Nato Waterbottles and a GF axe. It all arrived next day.
Great prices too!!
I cook in mine all the time, but not with the gel or solid fuel. I've a small pop can stove that sits in the bottom, and it works great as a bomb proof little cook kit. It does get much hotter with a meths stove though, so you can't use the plastic lid with one. I have a lid made from a flattened bean tin ith a wire handle that does the job.
In fact I had a bit of a seafood and sanfire medle in mine this very lunchtime, and very nice it was too
