Interested in Board views on best material to make an insulated thermal cooking pouch - for keeping pots warm and continue cooking after removal from stove.
Light weight - low bulk - High R value

One of those silver quilted looking windscreen sun shades from target or kmart type places. Cut and taped to appropriate size and shape. Light, effective and squishable/foldable depending on design.

This is what I use. Great stuff, will keep your food warm until the last tidbit.

I just used some car insulation I had laying around. I think it would be better if it was lined both sides like the sun shades but it does the job.

Should be obvious but just in case...
as long as you are not accident prone , after you have your pot inside an insulation layer, pile your sleeping bag over it or spare clothing if you have.

I've bought some of the insulation material from Daiso - Strider thanks for the suggestion - it is foam on one side and foil on the other - is it ok to have foam on the inside? Or should I have the foil next to the pot?
