Jet Boil Group Cooking System
Jet Boil Group Cooking System – Bigger and better JetBoil system.
Meet the popular Jet Boil Personal Cooking Systems big brother, the Jet Boil Group Cooking System. Now you can have all the luxuries of the Jet Boil PCS, but in a larger design to accommodate cooking for more than just one. Find out why Backpacker Magazine rated the Jet Boil Group Cooking System a “best Buy.”
The Jet Boil Group Cooking System has many of the same features as the PCS. A cool thing about the Jet Boil Group Cooking System is the pot. The pot is actually designed to help aid in heat retention, rather than just a tool for cooking.
The pot on the Jet Boil Group Cooking System features a FluxRing. This is designed to help exchange heat, improve fuel efficiency, and create a more even heating ring. The pot also has a built on neoprene cozy. This cozy stays on the pot even while cooking without burring. This cozy also helps in adding heat retention and improve fuel efficiency.
