Cast pot recipe ideas!

[johnnytheboy]

I have a cast iron pot, I’m challenged with providing the next outdoor work party food, hit me up with some ideas please!

Chilli is the obvious one but wanted a change!

Thanks in advance

Lamb tagine with apricots and honey (or dates) served over buttered couscous. Remember the white pepper, it makes it authentic (to certain regions).

Just boil a load of water in it then give everyone a Cup-a-Soup each !
For a group armed with sporks you can worse than a big pot of boiling water and selection of rat-pack meals they can heat up in the pot. Not only a filling bit of grub but each person can choose their own meal.

Alternatively, a venison stew with big, solid, sunken, suety dumplings is my personal favourite when time allows. Not really a meal for the hot weather, but in cooler times it really does hit the spot and it 'sticks to the ribs' as they say

In a cast iron pot I avoid cooking acidic foods, for example anything containing tomatoes.

Onions, meat, carrots, turnips, cabbage... All are great. But not tomatoes, citrus fruit, vinegar, wine.
