Preparation is key when cooking with a campfire. Before heading into the great outdoors, it’s advisable to plan meals that utilize one-pot recipes. Dishes like chili, vegetable and meat casseroles, or creamy risottos can be effortlessly prepared in a cast iron pot. The simplicity of these recipes allows campers to enjoy the cooking process while admiring the natural beauty surrounding them. Nothing beats the aroma of simmering ingredients wafting through the air as the sun sets.

While cast iron Dutch ovens are popular, there are other materials to consider based on your cooking style and preferences. For those who prefer lighter cookware, enamel-coated cast iron is an excellent choice. An enameled Dutch oven offers the same heat retention and even cooking as traditional cast iron but with a non-reactive surface that doesn’t require seasoning.

The lid also prevents splatters, keeping the cooking surface cleaner and reducing the amount of post-cooking cleanup required.
