And there is a Hawaiian form of cooking where a pit is dug and a hole pig is roasted sort of in the ground.
Indigenous Australians use a similar method for cooking meat, and other things.
I've done medieval style cookery, using medieval recipes, over an open fire.
Though most people imagine medieval cooking pots to be all made of metal, most were made of clay.

A clay brazier, filled with hot coals, that had a clay pot that sat over it.
They've been used from ancient times, and are still used today.
