I'm looking for jugs

[Mobilesport]

I'm looking for jugs simular to plastic milk cartons with lids so
i can use them to heat water on stove , steel , copper?
I dont like using a pan. 
Maybe a big kettle , i'm trying to heat 1 gallon of water at a time.
What do you guys use?

Boy that's nice! If you filled it 1/4 full and boiled it, fill 1/4 more with ambient temp water, you could get a nice shower from it. If you paint it black and leave it in the sun all day...

Hmmmmm....yea, I bet that dad gum thing would be on the big side......

Could heat water in a one gal can and poor it into a vertical hanging piece of 3in pipe with a small 12v pump. Mix it the same way. Instant shower. Chuck the pipe on the roof while traveling or bolt it to the outside of your rig. Saw this on YouTube installed on a teardrop. Stupid thing works!

The camping style coffee pots and tea pots are a good choice...

If space is at a premium as it is in my van, I choose to use my pan. All I have is a sauce pan and a fry pan and get along fine.

when I saw the tittle I thought oh boy, I like looking at jugs. then all I see are tea kettles and coffee pots. seriously a stock pot doesn't take up a lot of space if you can fill it with other stuff. highdesertranger

So in your original post and in a follow up comment, you are looking for something with a screw on lid so it does not spill? That is a tough one.

Consider that trying to screw a lid onto a very hot container might in itself be a challenge. If you tighten the lid before the water gets too hot, it will help it get hot quicker but then quickly become an explosion waiting to happen with no release valve.

You don't think something like the tea kettle with its fitted lid would be enough to keep it from sloshing out?

Now I'm curious... are you like taking the heated water on a hike over mountain terrain or something? LOL

LOL Freudian typo, HDR???

Simply use a pressure cooker pot with the pop-up relief valve.
