My vote, given original post, is for canister stove. I can't remember which MSR brand I've got. Is NOT pocket rocket.

The bivie stoves for hanging in a tent.... are certainly not a good pick for this poster...

MSR's history with stoves over past 30 years makes it the only choice in my mind for canister or gasoline stoves.

Gasoline is a pain, slightly dangerous, etc., and not all that light in weight.

Alcohol is GREAT for boiling a little water for a little cooking for one or two people. This person doesn't want that....That's my view.
