We’d like to purchase a complete cast iron (Lodge) outdoor cookware set for a large family of 8 that does a lot of camping/outdoor adventures yet can’t afford this themselves… I’m not sure exactly what they would need. With so many, would they need a couple of different sizes of skillet and/or dutch oven? Etc.. ??

    Do a search for “cast iron cookware” and look for sets. If you buy each piece alone you may have to sell one of the kids to pay for them. There is a lot of junk on the market so be careful.

    Oshman’s has a nice set just like you are describing. But, I would think if it’s a large family, the dutch oven would be the best place to start. My friend just bought one off of e-bay that was 8.5 quarts, with a flat bottom and wire handle…shipped to his door, it was only around $45 or less. It even had a lid that would hold coals in case you were cooking over an open fire, and it had a steamer basket with it also. We were really impressed b/c they shipped it immediately. The brand was some name that had to do with cajuns or bayou cooking or something, but it was plenty heavy and thick.

    I just can’t help but think that with 8 family members, the larger, the better. You may want to see about investing in an even larger pot than 8.5 quarts.
