About this item
- 8 QT. DEEP CAMP DUTCH OVEN. The Lodge portable “camp stove” is the pot that does it all. The flanged lid holds hot coals and inverts for use as a griddle. The integral legs allow the oven to sit perfectly over the campfire.
- PRE-SEASONED COOKWARE. A good seasoning makes all the difference. Lodge provides pre-seasoned cookware with no synthetic chemicals; just soy based vegetable oil. The more you use your iron, the better the seasoning becomes.
- MADE IN THE USA. Lodge has been making cast iron cookware in South Pittsburg, Tennessee (pop. 3,300) since 1896. With over 120 years of experience, their cast iron is known for its high quality design, lifetime durability, and cooking versatility.
- CAMP COOKING 101. Lodge knows that cooking is about more than just the food; it’s about the memories. Whether you’re roasting a chicken in the oven, or cooking chili over the campfire, Lodge has you covered with the included Camp Dutch Oven Cooking 101 cookbook.
- FAMILY-OWNED. Lodge is more than just a business; it’s 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.

Lodge is now producing cast iron cookware that is pre-seasoned, saving you the step of seasoning it before using for the first time. A quick rinse and dry right out of the box and I was cooking. I did a chicken pot pie recipe that was super easy and used refrigerated crescent rolls, rolled out flat, for the crust. A fair amount of coals underneath at first to crank up the heat and pre-cook the chicken and then saute the onions and start the potatoes. Throw in the rest of the ingredients and get to a boil, stirring occasionally, then take a few of the bottom coals and put them on the lid, lowering the bottom heat and getting that important top heat going, then just place the unrolled crescent rolls on top, cover and let it bake. So-o-o-o good!!! Last night I did tamale pie for a party we went to. With hamburger and some homemade Chilean Langaniza sausage I'd made, I added some corn, Ortegas, olives, bell pepper, enchilada sauce, garlic, freshly ground coarse black pepper and chili powder. That cooked for a while and I mixed up some corn meal with milk and eggs, poured it over the hot food, covered with shredded cheese and cooked until done. Outstanding! The pot was emptied while all the rest of the food got token pickings. There is something about cast iron-cooked food... and it's healthier for you than Teflon.
I love barbecue, cooking "low and slow" to get that tenderness and smoky flavor into my 'cue, and this oven allows that same principle to be incorporated (without the smoke, of course) in just about any meal. You need to nurture the coals during any cooking session, so someone must be there to tend them if you cook at really low temps, but that's about the only drawback, and most people will never do that anyway. I bought the metal table with windbreaker sides from Lodge and can't wait to use it. I cooked my first meal on my concrete patio and, while it worked great, it will be nice to get the oven up so I don't have to stoop to the ground to tend coals and stir/check contents, etc. I cooked the second meal under the shade of my canopy as it was sunny and warm, and I threw down a concrete paver that is about 2' x 2' and it worked great too... but I really want to use that new table!
Cooking a huge amount? I got the 12" oven and it'll cook enough food for at least ten people in one swoop, and you can always buy the 12 qt. oven that will supply a single pot of food for a huge group but if you need to cook with multiple ovens at the same time, simply stack them. Once you get used to the cleanup method of NO SOAP and get your process down, it is really easy to clean up after cooking too. These products are simply incredible and I wish I had known more details about them before. They last for generations; people actually pass them on to their children. Looking forward to a long relationship with this product!
I have since purchased a Dutch Oven version and it's been wonderful for camping. The remainder of this review is based on what I wrote about the Lodge 10" pan, but the same principles apply here.
Pan is already pre-seasoned and smooth (compared to the no-name one), and maintenance has been really simple: after cooking, put water on the pan and heat it up. Then scrub with metal (chainmail scrubber) or wood to get the gunk off. Drain, rinse, heat up again to evaporate all the water, then apply a thin film of oil.
If you have JUST received the pan, it's best to use bacon to season it per Lodge's instructions.
We have made many meals with the cast iron and I use it for practically everything. Just put some olive oil or butter while heating up the pan slowly until desired temperature and cook.
Maintains heat very well.
Skip the silicone handle as that is NOT reliable at all -- started falling apart after just a couple months of usage. I just use a towel to hold the hot handle.
Lid is a must for camping. I also like the Lodge "A5-11" tool to lift the lid with.

Let me first say that I have bought other Lodge cast iron products and they are the "Mercedes" of cast iron cookware. No shortcuts here, just beautiful, functional cast iron products that can be passed down to your children or grandchildren. On to the review...
The pot lid is very, very heavy. The pot itself is beautifully made. The instructions are clear (I recommend you follow them, they are correct). The iron handle is robust enough to take the pot off the fire filled hot food without giving you any concern.
The pot is "pre-seasoned" so all you have to do is give it a quick clean. I usually clean my cast iron products using hot water, a soft plastic brush and a little salt. Not much sticks anyway, but the salt works to give the brush a little "bite", plus I think the salt helps the seasoning a little.
The next step is to make a nice fire about 2 hours ahead of your cook time. The pot is NOT placed on the fire directly, but a few hot coals are dragged away from the fire for cooking.
I place the pot over about 10 hot coals on the botton, and about 20 hot coals on the lid. I turn the lid every 15 minutes or so and replace the coals with new ones about every 45 minutes.
Generally this method will cook a 4-5 pound chicken with a few potatoes, carrots and onions until it "falls off the bone" in about 3 hours.
It's really hard to describe how chicken tastes after being cooked over fire coals. It seems to keep the character flavor of the pot from meal to meal, and tastes ever so slightly smoky. It's very similar to cooking I've tasted in New Zealand where meat and vegetables are wrapped up on palm fronds, place over white hot stones, then buried for about four hours. It just has it's own unique flaor.
I've also cooked chile, leg of lamb and a number of other dishes. They've all been great.
A word of warning. Most people (including myself) can't believe that just a few coals below the pot, and double the number placed on top of the lid, can really cook the contents, but less is truly more in campfire cooking.
If too many coals are used, the food will taste strangely overcooked, but not burned. So best to exercise much restraint.
If you want to try campfire cooking and buy quality that can last for generations, then I say buy this quality pot and go out and cook!

Funciona perfecto y es de buen tamaño para el asador
Recommend for anyone who wants to cook in the coals. Not suitable for anything but car camping unless you are far more manly than me. :-)
