A stock pot http://www.stainlessstockpots.com/stainless-steel-stock-pots/?gclid=CI7J1cDSsqUCFTRa7AodowK8Ww is really just a large pot that you use to cook with on top of the stove. The pot sits on one of the burners. They come in many sizes to accommodate the amount of product you're making.
A Dutch Oven is usually made of cast iron or of enamel over steel and has a lid. It is used to cook in the oven generally. You can also "hang" them on a hook over an open fire to cook. http://www.google.com/products/catalog?q=dutch+oven&oe=utf-8&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a&um=1&hl=en&biw=1024&bih=564&ie=UTF-8&cid=14516212913698211564&ei=5XLpTK3rEMWclgep-4ziCw&sa=X&oi=product_catalog_result&ct=image&resnum=3&ved=0CFMQ8gIwAg#
A slow cooker is an electrical appliance. You put the product into the slow cooker, cover, turn it on and it cooks with very slow heat so it takes several hours to cook the food. A Crock Pot http://www.crock-pot.com/ is an example of a slow cooker.

And this won't help your quest - but I would get me a breeding pair of chickens!
ADD EDIT: If you are worried about a food shortage, you should probably stock up on salt. When processed foods run out - salt will be of a premium rather than a dangerous oversupply like it is now.

I have an electric steamer that I haven't used in about 10 years. That's because I learned that a pressure cooker with a steamer basket is better. A pressure cooker traps the steam to increase the temperature of cooking from 212deg.F. to above 250deg.F. A steamer justs wastes most of the steam that the pressure cooker uses. Plus a stovetop pressure cooker pot can be cleaned in the dishwasher, unlike an electric steamer. A pressure cooker pot can be used as a regular pot without the pressure, so it serves many purposes besides steaming. A steamer is a single function appliance.

If you can't tell whether it's gas or electric then you shouldn't be in the kitchen never mind use a pressure cooker. Take 3 steps away from the stove and leave the house in case you left the gas on if it was gas.

Go and take some hunting classes while you can. There is plenty in Texas. Really it isn't that hard. Just take time out of your busy life style. Plenty of guides on how-to's.
Also if you don't have any .22 rifles. Get a few. Those would be handier than those pistols. The pistols are only ok for close encounters which you don't want to be having anyway. You can use the .22's for hunting small game.

Check it for any damages. Really check the rubber seal for cracks and replace if it has any. Hopefully, you can find one that has the instruction manual with it. Follow all the directions carefully.

Answer by The Unknown Chef
If you soak them and cook them in a rice cooker they will be fine, I have done mine in the one I have, in my crockpot and an electric pressure cooker too, a rice cooker works on the basis of the weight of the rice and water, as it evaporates the spring in the bottom is tripped when done the water has gone and the weight changes, cook them with no salt as this toughens the skins, add onions, bay leaves and other spices, just remember to give the bowl a good wash or you next rice is going to taste like beans, the aluminium does tend to absorb flavours.
Answer by JQuick
There is no best steamer. Pick one with the features you like. It can be simple as the bamboo steamers, or an electric model with multiple layers.
Hot dogs aren't generally good for dieting regardless of how they're cooked. But the steam rising from hot dogs is fat and calorie free, and will only add some odor to other foods that may absorb it. You can steam most meats. You don't get the benefits of browning or the seasoning of cooking with liquids when steaming. If you put a container like a bowl of rice and water, you aren't really steaming. That's boiling with steam. People get confused about the kind of cooking method when they are mixed. Bowls of anything with liquid inside a steamer is boiling, not steaming.
A pressure cooker is better than a steamer in most cases. Putting a trivet into most any pot turns it into a steamer, but a pressure cooker traps the steam to increase the cooking temp inside to up to 250degF, while regular steamers are limited to 212deg.F at sea level or lower temps at higher altitudes. You can cook rice in 6 minutes in a pressure cooker, along with any vegetables or diced lean meats at the same time. You can't do that in a steamer. Plus you can first brown the meat, rice, and aromatic vegetables like onions, garlic, and shallots in the base of the pressure cooker with a little oil, drain the oil, add water, and be done in less than 10 minutes with better flavor, color and texture of the result. You can think of a pressure cooker as a more advanced steamer, while regular steamers are for newbies who don't know how to pressure cook.

Unless you are talking about a pressure fryer, they can be a bit pricey. I have never had a pressure cooker 'whistle' so I don't what your talking about there. And the sturdy ring? It's a replaceable rubber gasket.
A basic 6 quart Mirro or Presto can cost $ 40 - $ 60 dollars.
I have a vintage Mirro canning cooker from the 50's. It works great and the gaskets are still made. I have a Presto smaller version that I bought a few years ago for about $ 35.

The advantage of a pressure cooker is that it will cook things faster at a higher heat without burning. If you boil a pot of water, the water will never get hotter than the boiling point (212 F or 100 C). Before it can, it turns to steam and escapes. If you try to superheat the water (keep it on high heat after it's started boiling), it will just boil over until all the water is gone.
With a pressure cooker, the pressure prevents the water from boiling at the normal boiling point. So, the temperature can be increased beyond that point without the pot boiling over (it's sealed under pressure, hence the name). This allows things to cook faster without drying out or burning.
I don't know what a disadvantage would be, except that it's more expensive than a regular pot.

No. A water meter uses the flow of the water to turn gears resulting in a reading. Mechanical not electrical driven.
