Cast iron burner question

We have a tent trailer and my wife prefers to cook with cast iron. Currently we are using a propane stove. She prefers using an electric burner to cook on. We saw a convection style electric burner she liked but it is designed for magnetic cookware not cast iron. For those that use Cast Iron cookware what do you recommend?
Thanks
  • Cast Iron works extremely well on an induction cooker. I use a Nuwave unit.
  • I think you are thinking induction burner, not convection. I've never heard of a convection burner, just convection ovens.
  • You can not get anything more magnetic than cast iron.

    Double ditto. When camping I prefer Dutch oven cooking over coals or wood fire. 2nd is flame - propane or LP. Electric doesn't work well for me.
  • Cast iron is pretty much the best thing you can use on an induction cook top. I have a Max Burton. But really prefer to cook over a flame of any sort.
