Get a junk vice from a garage sale or Goodwill for practice, to see how it will turn out for whatever method you chose.
Don't practice on the item you want to keep.
For the mig, you can get Silicon Bronze wire, and use argon or CO2 gas.
Yes, it will still leave a golden area like the brazing rod, but if you haven't done brazing rod?before, that's one more new skill to master.
Now that isn't a bad thing, but unless you're retired, you may not want to devote time to that. I have done both, and I feel the mig with the bronze wire was a lot faster to get good results with.

There are some color matching rods for brazing cast iron! They're not an exact color match, but, they're gray instead of brass colored. They're also trickier to use than classic bronze rods.
