A cast iron cauldron is a great alternative to traditional grilling and cooking over a campfire. Various models of cauldrons are available, including varied in design: standing directly over the fire and for hanging over the fire.
Cast-iron cauldrons at MILITARY.EU are available in various capacities, from small four-liter ones to large cauldrons with a capacity of as much as fifteen liters. You can easily prepare a dish in them for one or two people, as well as for a group of several people.
One of the biggest advantages of cast-iron cauldrons for a campfire is the even distribution of heat, which contributes to maintaining good conditions for cooking food over the fire. Food cooked in such a cauldron is ready in a relatively short time, and thanks to very good thermal insulation and tight lids, dishes remain warm for a long time after cooking.
Cast iron cauldrons are characterized by high resistance to mechanical damage, for example, caused by falling or impact. They show equally good resistance to extreme weather conditions, so you can use them for a long time. Most models, even at the production stage, are greased with vegetable oils, which under the influence of high temperatures form a protective layer. This layer prevents food from sticking to the surface of the cast iron cauldron and protects it from corrosion.
Enameled cauldrons are also worth noting. A layer of enamel also acts as a protection against food sticking, and additionally makes it easier to clean the cauldrons. What's more, enamel-coated cast-iron kettles are characterized by greater resistance to mechanical damage than models without it.
At MILITARY.EU you will find a wide selection of cast iron cauldrons over a campfire. There are also models that are equipped with unscrewable elements, such as legs. You should also pay attention to the weight of the cauldrons. Standing models are usually heavier than hanging versions, which is worth taking into account when choosing a cauldron for a specific activity. We encourage you to check out accessories for cauldrons that will make them easier to use. For example, tripods over the campfire can be useful, so you can control the height of the vessel over the fire, and thus the temperature and cooking time.
If you appreciate being able to cook your favorite foods in the field, be sure to choose a cast iron cauldron. This vessel will be great for longer expeditions, but it is also worth taking it on a one-day picnic, fishing trip or scout camp. We encourage you to take a look at our offer.
