A giant black iron cauldron built for serious fire cooking. Inspired by the Shropshire ironmasters of the 18th century, Netherton’s spun iron cauldron is made to serve many — whether simmering slow stews over embers or boiling feasts above roaring flames. With a 25-litre capacity (16 litres recommended for cooking), it’s the centrepiece for festivals, campsites, and garden fire kitchens.
The cauldron is pre-seasoned with natural flax oil, giving it a durable, naturally non-stick finish that improves with every use. Its spun iron construction makes it thermal-shock resistant and suitable for flames, coals, gas burners, or charcoal beds. The included black iron stand lifts the cauldron securely above the fire, disassembles quickly, and packs down for transport.
