A sturdy iron pot with a rounded belly, flat bottom, and wire or riveted handle, designed to hang over a cookfire or sit in the embers. The thick iron distributes heat evenly and can withstand years of use if kept seasoned and dry. Large enough to feed a group or prepare a day’s provisions, it is a standard piece of camp and hearth equipment.
