suppose it could work if you have an unreliable heat source like a
wood fire or hot coals. Cast iron would make a lot of sense if you're
camping or in the aftermath of WWIII which, according to the Donald,
is imminent. I better start looking for my CI pan. I ain't dumb!
Thus speaketh ignorance. Live happily in ignorance David. You are

Wow, I wasn't expecting that from you, Carol! Cast iron isn't everyone's cup of tea, but my 8-inch cast iron skillet is a must-have for baking a "skillet" of cornbread. Oh, and the cast iron cornstick pans are fun. :)
Ditto the porcelainized cast iron pots with lids (Descoware) one of which I use to make chili. And a large Descoware skillet with a lid which is great for slow simmering spaghetti sauce.

Oh, and yes, you can use any of it to cook on a grill over coals in case of an extended power outage. Handy stuff!
