Cast Iron Cast iron usually refers to grey cast iron, but can mean any of a group of iron-based alloys containing more than 2% carbon (alloys with less carbon are carbon steel by definition). It is made by remelting pig iron, often along with substantial quantities of scrap iron and scrap steel, and taking various steps to remove undesirable contaminants such as phosphorus and sulfur, which weaken the material. Carbon and silicon content are reduced to the desired levels, which may be anywhere from 2% to 3.5% for carbon and 1% to 3% for silicon depending on the application. Other elements are then added to the melt before the final form is produced by casting.
Dutch Oven A Dutch oven is a metal cooking pot with a tight fitting lid.
A camping, cowboy or chuck wagon Dutch oven has three legs and a rimmed lid for use on a hearth or outdoors over an open fire. They are ordinarily made of cast iron (some are made of aluminum).

Seasoning (Cast Iron) The surfaces of a new cast-iron pan are porous and have microscopic jagged peaks and crevasses. To season a cast iron pan, rub it with cooking oil, solid vegetable shortening, bacon grease, or lard and heat it for 30 to 60 minutes in a 300-degree oven, then let it cool to room temperature.
