CanCooker Original Convection Steam Cooker | 4 Gallon | Feeds Up to 20 People | Anodized Aluminum | Works on Any Heat Source | Camping & Home Use

I could not be happier. This is well made... the non-stick liner is a great idea for clean up. We learned how to do Milk Can Dinner's while living in Wyoming... and this is the exact same thing... scaled down in size and made easier to manage and clean. First thing I made was a Low Country Boil... Here is the easy recipe: Cancooker Sausage and Shrimp Boil ★★★★★ Cajun/Creol, Can Cooker, Complete Meal, Leftovers, Main Course, OMG I want to try this, One Pot Meals, Sausage, Shellfish, Sides, Vegetables Prep Time: 20 Minutes Cook Time: 50 Minutes Total Time: 1 1/4 Hour Difficulty: Easy Servings: 4-6 Source: Cancooker.com INGREDIENTS Can Cooker Jr: 2 Red potatoes, quartered 2 Ears of Corn cut in half 2 Carrots 1/2 head of large cabbage, quartered (14 Brussels Sprouts) 1 onion, quartered 1 polska kielbasa (Sausage of choice) 12 oz can of Mountain Dew® (Beer or White Wine) 10 fresh shrimp, peeled and deveined (Optional) 10 Spears of Asparagus 1 1/4# stick of Butter Old Bay Seasoning 1 Whole Lemon quartered Salt and Pepper Optional: Cajun or Creole spices DIRECTIONS Spray inside of the CanCooker with non-stick cooking spray. Place everything except shellfish in the CanCooker. Place kielbasa on top of vegetables. Spices on top, Add can of Mountain Dew® (or White Wine). Stick of butter on top. (If doing shellfish... reserve a little of the lemon and butter to top shrimp at end) Latch the lid and place on medium heat. Once the CanCooker begins to vent steam, cook 25 Minutes, add shellfish and reserved butter and more spices, re-cover and cook for 10 more minutes. Remove from heat and let stand for 3-4 minutes. Open lid carefully. Serve in a large tray and enjoy! If using Asparagus... add that with the shellfish toward the end. NOTES Made this 2/23/21: Made changes to recipe to reflect results. Can Cooker worked great. Be generous with the Old Bay and CajunCreole Spices The meal was great... the aroma incredible... easy... fast... I'm a believer ♥ This is an update to this produce review. It's not a complaint... but a heads up to anyone using this indoors on a range or cooktop. This produces steam the entire time it is cooking. The aroma is fantastic... but the steam and microscopic food particles in the steam... settle... cool on... and lightly grease spot everything near the device. You could not have any open steaming device that would not do this... it is just the nature of that form of cooking. So in the future... I'll use mine almost exclusively on the Grill, cook stove, or hot plate outside so to minimize clean up.

Great pot for cooking in the woods, love that the lid clamps on. Nice and light, easy to clean.. what more could you want?

I have the junior but wanted the larger to have for more people. Did a seafood boil and it was easy and amazing!!

Works great for camping!! I’ve used it twice with good results and we really like it!!

Let me first say that the "Companion" size is more than adequate for a normal family of 4. If this can't feed everybody, you have some total calorically challenged chow hounds at your table. I can't even imagine how much food the larger Can Cookers would make! This thing reminds me of what you'd get if a crock pot and a pressure cooker had a love child. It cooks fairly fast and everything gets done well. I'd think those trying to eat more health consciously would love one of these because you're basically steaming your food. You control the salt content as well. Of course, I accept my obesity and add enough herbs & spices to make the ghost of Colonel Sanders want to kiss me, but that's just me. As this is basically a steam cooker, you can expect bland taste unless you dose it up good with seasonings. The build quality seems quite sturdy for a lightweight pot. I noticed 2 minor gripes: 1. I had to turn my lid a certain way to get the steam to escape the hole instead of leaking out of the side of the lid. 2. The silicone seal came off my lid and ended up resting on the rim of the pot when I was finished cooking. (Not sure if that's normal or not) Mine came with the carry bag, which is nice, but no recipe book. That's cool too because I'm sure you can figure recipes out on your own. You could make pretty much anything in one of these if you have half a lick of common sense.

We absolutely love our can cooker. It is so much fun creating new recipes to cook and will be great for camping.

Very good quality. Sturdy yet light in weight. Works very well and cooks evenly. Recommend yes.

I used this for a neighbor get together and fed 8 people with very little prep time and plenty of leftovers! Loved this so much that I will probably be getting them as gifts for Christmas. I used the basic sausage recipe that came with the instructions and prepared it accordingly. I added prawns in the last ten minutes and served an amazingly prepared meal with only about 15 minutes of work time. The instructions for heating were a little worrisome but watching the steam vent and turning the heat up or down accordingly really did work. My husband did buy a single propane burner to use with it and I am glad we got it. We were able to set it up on the deck and watch through the window as it cooked. I figured we could use it on the bar b q in better weather as well, but this was great for ease of use. I will probably try it over a campfire this summer. This is a great tool to feed large groups easily and quickly. From kitchen to plate in about 45 minutes. I had only one complaint and it doesn't change my mind about the cooker at all. It came dented on the bottom edge. It probably happened in shipping because there was only bubble wrap around it and it wasn't packed in too tightly. I didn't notice it until I needed to use it on the day of and decided not to worry about it. However, I did have to pound the bottom flat because the dent made the metal buckle and it would no longer stand flat on it's bottom. See pictures. My only advice is to inspect it thoroughly when its delivered, just in case. In no way did this interfere with the enjoyment of both the meal and it's ease of use. Love it!

fabulosa herramienta para mi cocina, se cocina super en ella

Love the cancooker.

A great model- yes it’s big enough, yes it’s worth the money.

Bought this to have in our travel van but of course it made it into the house and now it’s part of the regular rotation for weekly meals. It does what it says and is durable. You could probably do the sale with a large pot as all this is is really a glorified steamer. But it’s fun to load all the stuff into it and watch for the steam from the vent hole. The food tastes great. Very light weight for traveling too. I stick dish rags inside it for travel to maximize storage space. Great product that’s easy to clean too.

Perfect! I saw this being used on a YouTube channel I’m subscribed to, looked absolutely perfect for home cooking and it’s so easy and simple to use! Perfect if your a student and want to cook easily or if your having a few people round and need to cook for a larger crowed! So simple to use, easy to clean and plenty of recipes to try! I’m looking for a kitchen blowtorch so I can sear the meat after cooking - to do things like ribs etc.
