Growing up my mom and my grandma both cooked with cast iron. As I am getting older I am gravitating back towards cooking with cast iron more often! Now I have an enameled one that I use in the oven in the house, but I have an old school black cast iron one the old lady got for $5 that gets used on the smoker and fire pits when we camp!

How To Season Cast Iron

What Is A Dutch Oven?
A dutch oven is similar to a deep pot with a lid. They are used most often to cook on an open fire or on a grill. Cast Iron Dutch ovens can be used to bake bread, puddings, casseroles, stews, and soup. Sometimes they have legs to keep them over the fire a bit more or coal Some dutch ovens come with a flat lid to pack on more coal, or they make a tight seal so you can pack coal around it if needed.
