[Philmont] 6qt Pots...

What would be nice would be cookware that doesn't scorch easily.
Nothing like brillo scrubbing out burnt food on the inside of a pot.
Part of the game is to have
a material that spreads heat evenly and doesn't build up in one spot.
Dutch ovens are successful at this some of the time but this may be
due to the thickness of the dutch oven wall which doesn't admit
transmission of heat in one spot (at least some of the time).
Aluminum seems to scorch easily; stainless steel less so. Ceramic
crock pots are wonderful in the home - an all day slow cook results in
tender, flavorful meals. Wonder if there is a backpackable crock pot
equivalent.
