Best high-capacity stove for groups needing versatile, precise trail cooking.

This is the rare backcountry stove that actually lets you cook rather than just boil water. While the larger footprint adds a bit of bulk to your pack, the precise heat control makes it the only viable option for group meals that require more finesse than a simple dehydrated pouch.
