When you need to replace your pots and pans, buy cast iron cookware. Learn how to cook with it, season it, and cook with it over a fire. Cast iron cookware is very versatile and can be used indoors on the stove, on a wood burning stove or outdoors. I have had cast iron for many years and have really grown to like cooking with it. As I needed to replace the other pots and pans that would have all the non-stick stuff wear off, I got cast iron. Now, I have just a few pots that are not cast iron, but they are enamel that can also be used over a fire outside.
