Sitting around an open fire while preparing a meal has to be one of the most enjoyable parts of the RV camping experience. Cooking with cast iron cookware opens a range of culinary options beyond the simple grilling experience that the open fire usually affords.
Now you can bake bread, cook up a stew, fry a steak, or roast a chicken. Suddenly, with a small collection of cast iron items, the open fire becomes the heat source and you have most of the cooking methods that you would have available in your home kitchen.
With a cooking grate, you can create a nice cooking surface to hold any kind of pan.
