The Cattle Drive Cauldron
This is the fire pit that evokes the dusty sagebrush romance of the Old West. Ideal for warming one’s cockles while swigging sarsaparilla, this 30″-diameter cauldron is made from 100% U.S. pressed steel that radiates heat in 360°. Price $1,800
The cauldron is suspended 26″ from the ground by a 6′-tall x 6′-diameter steel tripod and hand-hammered wrought-iron chain that imparts a rugged rusticity to any patio party. Converting ubiquitous backyard barbecues into bovine basting bashes worthy of Buffalo Gap, the included truss-reinforced grill enables open-fire cooking, whether baking a batch of cornbread in a dutch oven or searing a rack of ribs.
Its double-hinged construction allows you to access the fire without moving food. The food-grade interior enables you to simmer a wealth a beans inside the cauldron directly, ideal for feeding an entire clan of cowpokes.
