Pioneers Pot October 20, 2007 This had to be the cook pot of choice for early settlers. It is designed to stand in a fire and also have fire coals on its top, or hang over an open fire. As a survivorlist I am delighted to have this in my survival kit and in my kitchen.
A must have for every camp cook! October 18, 2007 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I'm a novice at Dutch Oven cooking. This past summer I used the dutch oven to make biscuits and they were absolutely wonderful. I used canned biscuits but will try a recipe for biscuits next time. The instruction book (included) is great for novice dutch oven chefs and there are many other resources out there for other dutch oven recipes. I purchased a lid lifter (less than $3) and charcoal starter (less than $7) at Academy. I consider both of these necessities. A lid rack would also come in handy. I'll buy a 12 inch dutch oven before next year's camping season.
nice quality, not fully seasoned October 8, 2007 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
I ignored the previous review that recommended scrubbing this and seasoning it yourself, and that decision quickly proved unwise. The day I bought it I made easy cobbler from the great book that is included. The book said to spray some cooking spray on it and heat it up before use, which I did. Unfortunately, the cobbler, which was indeed very easy and good, absolutely fused to the dutch oven. It was the by far the hardest cleaning job I have ever had to do. I scrubbed for hours, and will reseason it. This is a very nice heavy weight dutch oven, the included book is very nice, the price was great. Still it will take me a long time to get over the tremendous cleaning job I had to go through. Buy this, but scrub it and reseason first.
Dutch oven October 6, 2007 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
This oven is amazing, with just a few B-B-Q coals it cooks just like it was in a kitchen oven with a timer and closely watched, only without any of that.
Best DO - best deal March 12, 2007 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
This was a great price on the highest quality Ducth Ovens made. Lodge is an excellent company with an excellent reputation. The DO arrived in a hurry and was exactly as expecte.
