dutch oven cooking
Cast-iron outdoor cookery
Dutch oven cooking is preparing food in a heavy, lidded pot—traditionally cast iron—designed to retain and distribute heat evenly.
The technique works on stovetops, in conventional ovens, or over campfire coals, making it popular for both home braising and outdoor cooking: We did all our dutch oven cooking over the fire pit.
