The Optimus Crux Weekend Cook System weighs 372g and gives you everything needed for weekend camping trips. This complete system includes the Crux stove, 0.95L pot with pour spout, frying pan that doubles as a lid, and folding spork. The larger pot size handles cooking for two people or bigger meals that solo systems can't manage.
The 0.95L pot capacity lets you cook proper meals for weekend trips - pasta for two, larger portions of dehydrated meals, or enough soup to share. The pour spout actually works without creating spillage disasters, and the measuring marks help with meal planning when you're cooking for more than just yourself. The non-stick coating cleans easily even when you're washing up with limited water.
At 372g, this system balances functionality with reasonable weight for car camping and weekend adventures. The Crux stove produces 3000W of controlled heat - enough power to handle the larger pot efficiently. The 90-minute burn time with a 230g gas canister covers multiple days of cooking, including morning coffee, lunch prep, and evening meals.
The frying pan doubles as a pot lid, saving space while giving you cooking versatility. You can fry breakfast while your coffee water heats, or use it as a plate when space is tight. Everything nests together in the mesh carry bag with room for the folding spork and a 230g gas canister - keeping your camping kitchen organized and compact.
Weekend camping means you have time to actually cook rather than just boiling water for dehydrated meals. The precision flame control lets you simmer sauces, fry eggs properly, or cook pasta without burning it. The 149mm x 124mm dimensions pack efficiently in car camping setups where every cubic inch isn't critical like it is for backpacking.
Gas canisters are sold separately - our LPG gas canister selection includes 230g canisters that work perfectly with this system's burn time.

This system handles the demands of UK weekend camping where you have the luxury of cooking proper meals. The larger pot capacity works well for popular UK camping foods - from heating tinned soup to cooking pasta meals. The stable design works on camping tables or level ground at established campsites across UK camping destinations.
