2. Bare Cast Iron Dutch Ovens For traditionalists, bare cast iron Dutch ovens are often favored due to their exceptional heat retention and natural non-stick surface when well-seasoned. These ovens require more maintenance than enameled versions; they need to be seasoned regularly to prevent rust and enhance their non-stick properties. However, when cared for properly, bare cast iron Dutch ovens can last a lifetime and even get better with age, imparting a distinct flavor to dishes prepared within them.

Another benefit of using a cast iron covered skillet is its ability to transition seamlessly from stovetop to oven. This versatility allows you to start your dish on the stovetop and finish it in the oven, making it an excellent choice for recipes like frittatas, cornbread, or skillet pizzas. Many recipes that require a specific cooking technique can often be executed with this single piece of cookware, reducing both dish count and cleanup time.
