Lodge Original Finish 2-Quart Camp Dutch Oven

Product Review

Original finish 2 qt camp dutch oven. The portable "camp stove" is the pot that does it all. Flanged lid for hot coals inverts for use as griddle. Integral legs on oven for campfire and fireplace cooking. 8" diameter, 3" deep. To season, follow these easy directions - Wash with hot, soapy water and a stiff brush. Rinse and dry thoroughly. Spead a thin coat of solid shortening or vegetable oil over the entire pan including handles and exterior surfaces. Line the lower oven rack with aluminum foil to catch any drippings and preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place cookware upside down on middle rack of oven and bake for 1 hour. Turn off the oven, leaving the cookware in the oven until cool. Your cookware will look slightly brown, instead of the familiar black but it is ready for cooking. It will blacken with cooking.

Lodge 8" Camp Dutch Oven, July 21, 2005

The 8" Lodge Camp Dutch Oven is currently the smallest that Lodge offers. The 2 Quart oven is the perfect size to cook dinner for one or two people. Ever popular with canoe and river rafters this oven works well in a camp fire or with charcoal brickettes.

Quality made in the USA the iron casting is smooth and uniform, the lid fits without rocking or binding -- providing a good seal. Properly cared for this oven will last a lifetime.

In my opinion you can't go wrong buying Lodge, high quality at a modest price.

A dutch oven is one of the most versatile items you can find. Many people I know are intimidated by cooking with dutch ovens, but when you take a few minutes to learn how, you can use it to cook anything! It can be used with variety of foods: stews, cakes, cobblers, breads, poultry, vegetables (basically anything you make in a conventional oven). If you happen to forget to pack your skillet when you go camping, turn over the lid and put it back on the dutch oven. Voila! Instant skillet-type cooking surface! Additionally, this smaller dutch oven stacks well with the 12-inch version, so you can cook more than one course at a time!

Having used a variety of dutch ovens in my life, I can tell you for sure, Lodge dutch ovens are the best. They are durable and well-crafted. If you have ever had the experience of cooking with a dutch oven that was not a Lodge, you will know what I mean.

You should look for a dutch oven that has a lip on the lid for keeping coals on, and...Read more
