I've never cooked with one of these bottles, but if I make a coffee and fill my insulated bottle up to the top and seal it, I have good luck with it being hot for a long time. At least 8 hours, and if you don't drink half of it, I think it lasts longer. It would be at least warm the next morning.
They work great on hot days too. I throw a few ice cubes in and they are still banging around in there on a hot day hours later. I can usually refill from my uninsulated bottle and reuse the ice.
