NEVER EVER EVER store anything with tomato in a cast iron pot. Further more your pot better be very seasoned if you even plan on using tomato in it or be prepared to have a reaction to the tomato and the chili will taste like metal and even discolor a bit.

ETA:

If you dont use tomato in your chili its not as bad but you still want to store it in something else and re-season your cast iron pot.

shite - I had no idea. This is my 1st time using the pot, so it is probably not very well seasoned. I just coated it in Crisco and put it in the oven on 300 for about 1.5 hours. Maybe I should abort mission.
