Cast Iron Dutch Ovens

Cast iron Dutch ovens heat food evenly and keep the food warm longer. The original Dutch oven during the colonial period was made of heavy cast iron and had three or four short legs. These are referred to as “Outdoor” Dutch ovens and are usually used when camping or over a fireplace. The other oven, known as the “Kitchen” Dutch oven, has no legs. Traditionally, both types of Dutch ovens had wire bails for lifting.  Lodge recently introduced kitchen Dutch ovens with loop sides handles to their product offerings, which have been received well by consumers. The handles make it easier to transfer the pot from the oven to the stove top.

Cast iron Dutch ovens are shaped differently than other cast iron cookware. They are deeper and rounder and their are various sizes of cast iron Dutch ovens, from 3 quarts all the way up to 12 quarts. Dutch ovens which can be used in the oven or on the stove, are perfect for slow roasting chicken, beef, beans, rice or stew. The tight self-basting fitting lid captures the steam and juices it and delivers the liquids back to the food.
The prices for cast iron Dutch ovens vary according to size, but these long lasting pieces of cookware should not be purchased solely on the basis of price alone.
