    I generally select things like this based on other peoples feedback.
    There is so much information available on the internet for anything you want to know.
    I check the reviews by people that have purchased and used the items.
    After doing that, I went with the JetBoil Backcountry gourmet set, which includes:
    1 Cooking pot w/ Lid
    1 Adjustable Burner w/ Push Button Ignition
    1 Measuring Cup / Insulating bottom cover
    1 Flux Fry Pan
    1 Fry Pan Bottom / Plate
    1 Pot Support and Stabilizer
    1 Fork
    1 Spoon
    1 Spatula
    I also bought the coffee press accessory
    In hindsight, I would have just purchased the Jetboil with the coffee press accessory.

    The Jetboil itself, I highly recommend. I can boil water in about 3 minutes and be drinking coffee 5 minutes after that.
    I used the frying pan twice, everything stuck to it. I won’t use it again. The retractable fork, spoon, spatula seem so flimsy, I haven’t actually tried them and I wouldn’t go into the woods without something more rugged.
    I’ve used the Jetboil with an Outback Oven. Cookies on a backpacking trip are great.
    I would be interested in knowing what other people use or won’t use again.
