The short answer is no, generic pots are not compatible with the WindBurner stove. Because of the WindBurner stove’s unique radiant burner design, only WindBurner pots may be used on WindBurner stoves. It’s important to remember that each WindBurner stove system is just that—a system, which requires its burner and its specially engineered pot. All WindBurner pots feature a heat exchanger on the bottom. The WindBurner’s radiant burner is designed specifically to work with this heat exchanger. Together, the heat exchanger and radiant burner create a windproof, highly efficient system for backcountry cooking.
