This is all very interesting. I don't have said spider Dutch oven. Our wood stove is a newer steel clad one so it never gets too hot to cook on. I do cook on it, making skillet bread, and slow cooker type recipes.
I do have two cast iron wood stoves around here though, so hopefully we'll get use them in our next place.
Weird, we got the new one because we were told we'd never get insurance on the house using the old cast iron stove, but then I never told our insurance guy that we even installed one! Since we burn responsibly, clean and inspect the chimney pipes every year, etc, I figured we probably wouldn't burn our house down with one anyway.
Okay, back to thread topic!
