Lots of options here.

Many use tent stakes.

Many make a stand out of hardware cloth, which they roll up and unroll to
store inside their pot.

I use a stand made from light welded fence wire.  It is shaped like a pot
and is just a tad larger than my pot.  That way it has the width to keep the
pots center-of-gravity inside the support, it fits over my pot and inside my
pot cozy when packed, and doesn't get weakened by bending the wire every
time I pack/unpack it.

WOW...Youse guys are good.  So I wrap it in duct tape for strength and I
label it so it's not mistaken for water, and I put it in a ziploc for good
measure.  And alcohol won't eat through plastic.  Got it.  Now if I can
just figure out how to center the big pot on the teeny soda can stove so's
it (the pot) don't tip over again like the first time I tried it.  (It
also knocked over the LIT stove and there was some burnin' alcohol runnin'
around.  I just love trying new equipment, don't you?)  =:O
