Anodized can handle up to 500F but camp fires can go to 900F+ Anodized is OK for home stoves but not for open fires, that's why most major brands don't offer Anodized aluminum camping pots . Stainless steel is better though heavier. Wish Mors pot was stainless. I got the Zebra. You can bake with the Zebra too. Need to modify plastic clips Get those big paper clips that have springs and folding handles - they are cheap to buy and the handles are stainless steel wire of the right thickness. You can bend them to make clips for the Zebra like the clips offered at FireBox stove - some clips you don't have to bend and they keep the handles up but don't lock the lid.
Probably sensible. There is a lot of evidence to suggest Aluminium ingestion contributes to Alzheimer’s. I don’t think boiling water in a pot/kettle occasionally would be a problem but any acidic food cooked in aluminium can vastly increase how much aluminium you ingest. It’s not worth the risk long term. Plus stainless steel is much nicer. 🙂
Make it super easy for you, the mors pot is no longer sold. The original company that produced it for four dog stoves has discontinued it. If you were lucky enough to get one, You are lucky.
Hi Ben. Just wondering how you or anyone else find these pots for cooking on a fuel stove. Say when you cook a meal like a strew or something. How do you find them for sticking on bottom or burning? Any help would be greatly appreciated!!! :)
This all depends on your cooking skills, both stainless and hard anodized cookware are used in the kitchen industry. I would say hard anodized has a advantage as being more non stick.
I went with the Zebra 14 as it caught my eye buying the gen2 box stove. It just looked fireman proof, and came with a pan. Zebra really should consider at least a small D on the side...floppy handles annoy me, but I've no experience yet...bought the two part carry bag as well. Btw, both will fit one of those butterfly wing/expandable steamer devices @ 5.5" folded. Just gotta keep and eye on water boiling off to none left. I got the silly Zebra and other label off with aid of blow dryer, and an IPA rub down. No reason to bake that cwap on. :-) ~ eesh, I just peeked into the Mors, and looks to be they quit making them. Maybe they better'd themselves on something everyone liked?
I like both stainless and anodized aluminum. Anodized does not react with acidic foods...." Manufacturers found that aluminum can be anodized to make it stronger, slicker, more durable, and non-reactive with foods."
I have both and I bought both from you. Used extensively over the years and both are holding up great! Can't go wrong with either choice.
Buy em both--loved it! I knew you were "going" there and I agree--"two is one, one is none--thank you for a great video

I use the zebra 16mm , 120 oz. Pathfinder Bush pots. Getting away from everything aluminum
Why are you getting away from aluminum?
@@captdoug, im not taking the chance getting aluminum poisonings

I have ‘em both and use ‘em both. The big difference is I’ll occasionally lend out the Zebra pot, but the Mors stays with me!
Do a little bit more research, cooking with hard anodized aluminum is not toxic.
@@captdoug it absolutely is on open fires. Anodizing can’t handle the heat.
@@undefeatedgaul3201 can you do me a favor and cite the peer reviewed research that shows that it is? That it's toxic.
Great review, I am very tempted to buy the Mors pot, it is not cheap to get it around here.
The zebra is more accessible to get
The Mors pot is Made In Wisconsin, USA.
@TRUE GRIT OUTDOORS yeah, made in Wisconsin on a Monday or Friday might not be good. :-)
Unfortunately they're not made at all anymore.
That explains why they suck.
Thanks for the comparison! Both pots look great to be honest. I really wish you had the Mors pot in a 12 qt size! That would be epic.

i love my Mors 1.8 L pot i use it mostly with my simmerlight stove. i did add silicon tubing to the butterfly handles
Tough choice but I'm happy I bought the Mors from Ben's. Sadly, they are no longer available.
Zebra's are great, but it's hard to beat a Mor's Bush Pot especially for the weight & cost.
Sure it is, get something that's not Aluminum. The Pathfinder version, for example. Aluminum is toxic.
Love my Mors pot, but to be honest, I rarely use it.

How about the SelfReliance Pathfinder Bush Pot. I’ve used one for at least 2 years and wonder how it compares with a Zebra pot.
I have never used one, it is probably lighter weight and closer to the solo 1800 pot.
Good job thanks

A pot gripper is the solution for pouring these pots and using them on a gas burner
Where can you buy the mors pot?
Sadly they are out of production....I have replaced it with the SOLO 1800 pot which has similar features...thanks
Mors all the way
I prefer the Pathfinder Bush Pot, because it´s like the Mors 8 Cup, but it´s made of stainless steel.
Aluminium is toxic.
I like both stainless and anodized aluminum. Anodized does not react with acidic foods...." Manufacturers found that aluminum can be anodized to make it stronger, slicker, more durable, and non-reactive with foods."
@@bensbackwoods anodizing can’t handle open fire heat. Period. It can become toxic quickly.
@@undefeatedgaul3201 Multiple companies use hard anodized pans and pots for commercial sale...where are you getting this info? Thanks
A fair assessment review!
Who sells the mors pot or very similar? In 2024. I’m late to the party I guess. Ha ha.
Hey.
I sell the Pathfinder Pot which is a Stainless Steel copy of this pot...check them out at bensbackwoods.com
Thanks!
No Aluminum!
Sensor tray? lol, you mean the Steaming tray?
They are NOT the same size. Mors is 1800 ml to Zebra's 2000 ml.
