camp oven

Bush cooking pot

A camp oven is a heavy cast-iron pot with a flanged lid, designed for cooking over an open fire or hot coals.

The lid's rim holds coals on top, creating even heat for baking bread, roasting meat, or making stews in outdoor settings.

Particularly associated with Australian bush cooking and American frontier traditions: We baked damper in the camp oven.
