I would default to CI for a number of reasons, although I would caveat that with saying "good" cast iron, not the 20 dollar Lodge pan. Those can be made to be great, but out of the box notsomuch. Cast Iron has a far better heat retention which is great for a number of things, but needs to be considered as there are no quick changes to temp, it's also something I can throw onto a campfire, in a smoker, on a kamado style grill, or the stove/oven, so will stainless although I am fairly certain stainless would warp badly on a kamado that is at top temp, and likely if placed on a camp fire as well. I personally love my CI, and have a wall of it in my kitchen because it's awesome, some if absolutely gorgeous, and has history as well, something you won't get with stainless.
