Snow Peak

Aluminum Small Caldero

Look, we would never disparage cast iron cookware—how else are you going to make blueberry cobbler in the backcountry? But it does have its drawbacks, and there are times when the Snow Peak Aluminum Small Caldero is the better choice. For one, it's significantly lighter than cast iron without sacrificing much in terms of durability, making it way easier to lug out to distant campsites. Additionally, it can handle highly acidic foods such as curries and tomato sauces (which can damage your cast iron and make food taste metallic), so you can diversify your camp menu a bit.
