Cast iron is wonderful in many ways
Now for cooking inside (no coals on top, LOL) I think the guilty pleasure is a La Creuset oval dutch over, the bigger the better.
They are very heavy to handle but they cook like nothing else and clean up great.
Cook a small turkey, a stew, a pot roast, a ciappino, a twelve fishes, a sausage pot dinner, or anything. My wife can’t handle it due to the weight but she loves it as well as long as I move it and clean it when she uses it. But mostly its mine and I think of anchovies, garlic, onions — did I say garlic?
