Review: Very Nice Dutch Oven! - Used this at our last camping / hunting trip and it was a big hit. We cooked a nice sized rooster in it with room to spare! We prepped the ingredients, put it over the fire and went hunting. After a long, slow cook over the fire, we returned to a falling-off-the-bone chicken stew (taters, onions, celery, carrots, salt & pepper) that was about the best camp meal you could ask for! If you're going to use it at a primitive campsite, I recommend picking up (or making) a tripod system where you can hang it by a chain over the fire. We cooked all our meals that way and it worked perfectly. The lipped lid is great too - you can take some coals from the fire and put them on top to help speed the process. Do yourself a favor and get yourself a lid lifter, a good pair of fire gloves, a plastic scrub brush and a whisk broom for brushing the lid off (you don't want ashes spoiling your hard earned dinner!). Also, read the manual that comes with it so you understand how to take care of, and use, your oven. I also recommend joining the Dutch Oven Cooking group on yahoo. You'll get great information on how to spin the lids for a tight fit, cook in them, hook up with other like-minded Dutch Oven folks in your area, etc. Now for the negative: I did have to send the first one back as the lid rocked quite a bit (about 1/8"). A bit too much for a Dutch Oven, and a bit disappointing based on what I read about Lodge's reputation. You want the lid to fit pretty good so that you can build up a bit of pressure inside the pot and, more importantly, not lose your cooking heat. In the outdoors, efficiency is important! All-in-all, though, you can't beat Lodge for overall quality, and you can't beat desertcart for customer service. The return process was pretty effortless and the second oven had a lid that fit with very good tolerance (like 1/16" or less). Read carefully: A little bit of lid rocking is okay!!! Following the trip, a scrub down with water and a brush, followed by drying and applying a light coat of olive oil, made it look brand new - even after it had been exposed to open flames and hot coals directly on the lid. So, aside from having to do a what I think was a little quality control for Lodge, I'm very happy with my purchase and recommend this product. I'm giving it 5 stars because, in the end, I got great customer service and an affordable (dare I say beautiful? Yeah, I love it!) oven that will last *literally* for generations!
Review: A Piece of History You Can Own and Use - I've debated if I would ever buy a Lodge Camp Dutch Oven. I already own a couple of indoor dutch ovens. My wife asked what I wanted for Father's Day, and I told her your going to think I'm crazy. She said I already think your crazy, so what is it? I said a Lodge Camp Dutch Oven. We are in our 50's, and our camping days have long since passed us by. But I've am intrigued by Camp Dutch Ovens, the history of them, how they work, and I wanted to learn how to cook with one. So I got my Lodge 8qt Deep 12 inch dutch oven from desertcart.com for this year's Father's Day. I read a lot about them on the internet. I found out that the rimmed edge on the lid was invented by Paul Revere, who was mostly know as a silversmith. I also learned the Lewis and Clark expedition had two items that they would not barter, or trade to the Indians. Their guns and their dutch ovens. That kind of tells you of the importance of their dutch ovens to them. The Lodge company has been in business since the 1800's. I have a Great-Grandfather who went from Missouri to California and back in wagon trains in the mid 1800's, and I'm sure he probably used a dutch oven along the way. This was a chance to own and use a piece of history in your hands. I tried the dutch oven out today for the first time. I cooked BBQ country pork ribs out on my patio and they turn out terrific! On Father's Day we invited the In-Laws over and I will be making Red Neck Kielbasa Stew. I'm impressed how the dutch oven works. I use briquettes on the top and bottom. I've always been impressed with the quality of Lodge products, made in the USA, they last forever, I would not by any other brand. They are worth the price if you are buying for the long run, don't skimp and get an inferior chinese product. I also realized that this item could be very useful if a disaster ever hit and we lost power. I could cook outdoors if I had to. It's so versitile you can, fry, bake, roast, stew, etc. I am so looking forward to trying out many new recipies, such as peach cobbler, pizza, mountain man breakfast to name a few. I like U.S. History, I like to cook, and I like to eat. I'm lucky to have an understanding wife of 29 years that let me indulge in my hobbies. I going to be having a very good Father's Day, this year and for years to come.

## Features

- YOUR NEW GO-TO DUTCH OVEN: The Lodge Cast Iron Camp Dutch Oven seamlessly combines both form and function, making it a camping essential. This versatile cookware features a lid that effortlessly transforms into a griddle, rendering this the ultimate cooking tool for your next getaway.
- SEASONED COOKWARE: Seasoning is simply oil baked into the iron, giving it a natural, easy-release finish and helps prevent your pan from rusting. Lodge pre-seasons all cast iron cookware with 100% natural vegetable oil: no synthetic coatings or chemicals. The more you use Lodge the better the seasoning will get!
- RUST? DON’T PANIC! IT’S NOT BROKEN: When your pan arrives you may notice a spot that looks like rust. It is simply oil that has not fully carbonized. With regular use and care the spot will disappear. If you do notice rust simply scour the affected area with steel wool, rinse, dry, and rub with vegetable oil.
- HEAT RETENTION: The cast iron vessel has superior heat distribution and retention, evenly heating throughout both the bottom and sidewalls. The tightly fitting lid seals in moisture for scrumptious pot roast, stews, or a large batch of beans. Our heat retention also reduces the amount of energy needed for cooking.
- FAMILY-OWNED. Lodge is more than just a business; it is a family. The Lodge family founded the company in 1896, and they still own it today. From environmental responsibility to community development, their heads and hearts are rooted in America. Products made with non-toxic, PFOA & PTFE free material.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How do I know what is the best sized oven for me?**
A: 12 inch is usually considered the standard size for dinners, but I guess if you were only cooking for two people the 10 inch would do fine.  We have several 12 inch that we use for dinners, and a 10 inch we cook dessert in.  We also have a large 14 inch for when we have a large group to cook for like a family gathering.  You can put a whole chicken into a 12 inch but just a few pieces of chicken into a 10 inch.  If you want to cook bread or rolls, you'll need the room of the 12 inch.  The beauty of the Dutch oven is you can stack them while cooking so you can use a 12 inch for the main course, another for dinner rolls, and top it off with a 10 inch for dessert.  Be careful not to confuse quart size with inches.  Lodge typically measures by size in inches, while Camp Chef ovens are deeper and measure by quarts.  I've noticed the deeper Camp Chefs take more coals to get the same cook times, but they do hold more food.  Lodge offers better quality, but Camp Chef includes a lid that can be flipped upside down and used as a griddle, which is handy if you'll be camping.  I like both brands.

**Q: Is Lodge Made in America?  Please tell me they didn't go to China.  Thank you.**
A: Lodge manufacturers all of their cast iron products here in the U.S., in Tennessee. The enameled Dutch ovens are made here but then sent to China for the enameled coating.

**Q: What is the right size? No more than 4 people camping but 8 or so for-party.  Bigger is better?**
A: The 8 quart dutch oven will supply you with plenty enough food for a party of 8 and camping with 4. I have had alot of large meals come out of my 8 quart oven. I also have two 12 quart dutch ovens and just 1 of the ovens will feed a small army. I have fed 3 familys ( 10 people ) at the same time with the 8 quart oven. I started out makeing my best meals with my old 8 quart. Hope this helps !!!

**Q: How much does it weigh?**
A: 20.75lbs This is for the whole pot and li combination.  Just weighed it on a scale.

*by M***H on August 13, 2021*

Already used this pot a few times since receiving it. All i can say is wow!! To people who say material stuck to their pan etc. all i can say is they must not of followed the simple instructions of how to look after them. I have tried sautéing potatoes, frying eggs, baked with it and nothing stuck to it, i was amazing. A simple scrub with a brush afterwards cleans it in water, dry it well and then re-oil it. Also seems to be getting even better after every use. Top marks. Food also tastes fantastic when cooked in these aswell.
