For steel cut, you can cook several days worth at a time and reheat what you want.
For rolled oats, no need to cook.

Hmm. I've been eating rolled oats raw for years, and I think I'm ok (generally).
In college I ate lots of rolled wheat and rolled rye, and my teeth got very sensitive, so I quit doing that.
This place says that in before rolling, oats are steamed to make them soft, so rolled oats aren't really raw. That makes sense.

I haven't had a problem digesting rolled oats or other raw whole grains-- before I was making my own muesli I ate Dorset Cereals muesli fairly regularly.
In fact-- it's been working really well as a pre-work out meal.
