Overmont 9 Quart All-Round Dutch Oven€Dual Function : Lid Griddle€‘€with Lid Lifter€‘€Pre Seasoned€‘ Cast Iron Dutch Oven for Camping Cooking BBQ Baking

this box come in the mail today, it had some weight to it, i opened it and there was my Dutch oven (cast iron pot) after carful inspection im happy to say there is no damage to be seen, it was packed very well and quick shipping.the pot its self is seasoned by the manufacturer with soy bean oil instead on the usual canola oil like other companies. the only downfall of this is that SOY mimics estragon when it enters your body, this is not a good thing for men or children.... or even women for that matter.... they claim to care about your health by using up to " 85% iron ore " for manufacturing. anybody can say anything if you ask me.. but im happy with my product. i will be putting it in an open fire to burn all their oil off, then wash really well, then season it with bacon grease, veg oil or olive oil. NOT SOY BEAN OIL! Cant wait to use it this year!

Heavy, bulky and you must season it well before use and after.Heavy and awkward with uneven campfire and a full pot of bubbling hot goodness.I strongly suggest buying three additional itemsLonger lid handle that is sold separately as the one that comes with is too short, if the coals/fire is too hot.Welding Gloves!!! Makes all the difference when moving the oven off the camp fire or lifting the lidIf you are debating about the storage bag that is 2/3 of the price of the oven - do it. It makes transport and storage so much better, especially after you spent three hours reseasoning the oven and you want to keep dirt and dust out of it, before the next use.Best stew and chili I have made yet.

First thing was to season the pot with grape seed oil which has a higher smoke point. I did this twice before we even use the pot. Some would say to season it more and maybe I will. If your not sure what I mean you can look up videos on seasoning cast iron. It is a must if you are going to use cast iron. The 9qt pot is really big and quite heavy. I got a tripod stand for over a fire and full of food Im not sure the tripod will hold it but I think it will. Its a beautiful pot and if your looking for a good quality cast iron pot, this is it.

This is very awesome for cooking over a wood fire or charcoal. I have backed corn bread, pie and regular bread in this dutch oven. Will last 10 lifetimes with proper care ❤

I hesitated buying this due to some of the reviews but I am glad I finally did, no regrets.It's awesome, and getting lots of use.
