I use 1 Liter thermos flasks (for food) as haybox cookers.
i have three.
I just need to add more padding to the lid to keep extra heat in and they are perfect.
Get them from B+M £3.99 each. (thermos flask cooking is a great term to google for)
i also use a washing up bowl and 4 towels and a saucepan as a haybox cooker.
Works very well.

I tried this a few years ago, we used a cool box with blankets. I need to do this again.
