Alcohol stove with alcohol fuel. Alcohol has an indefinite shelf life and the stuff formulated for stoves burns very cleanly - fewer fumes indoors and easy cleanup. Combine your alcohol stove setup with a thermal cooker and a little bit of fuel goes a very long way. Get a Berkey water purifier to treat virtually any captured water and if you live in a water insecure region keep a few dozen gallons of potable water at the ready.
I've got one of those portable Coleman bottle propane camping stoves.
Sold out here, but the model
And 4 bottles of propane, from what I understand, should last quite awhile cooking rice (low flame).
Not super duper prepped, but we also have a fire pit and wood, so I'm not totally sweating it.
I'm not a prep expert, but I researched this to my satisfaction and was comfortable with my decision. Price was a factor for me, if it's not for you you could spend more for something better. This is adequate. I'd also get more cannisters if you're unable to do an outdoor fire.
No problem. Looks like there are some other suggestions in this thread as good if not superior to what I recommended. Pinging you to remind you to double-check. u/ivermectinpepe had one that's making me second guess my choice (a bit). And I want to say I spent ~$10 a bottle of propane. It was quite awhile ago. I forget.
Perhaps his stove takes smaller bottles... Not sure.
Was kind of bummed that the water filter recommended here was around $400. 👀 Again though, we have a fire pit and typical Brita filters so I'm not sweating it too much. However you may want to research more simplistic, camping oriented filter systems. They're relatively cheap I think, but when I checked at Bass Pro it was difficult to determine the quality and TBH, I forgot I even looked until this thread. 😂
