🍲 9 Quart Lodge Pre-Seasoned Cast Iron Dutch Oven with Wire Bail for Camp Cooking Review

I name my 9 Quart Dutch Oven Berta because it's not Cindy, Diana or Susie. It requires space and attention like any great cast iron, but in return it will help you prepare the crispiest roast chicken, the juiciest beef stew, the spiciest gumbo. Treat 4 like 6 and she will love you forever! I've had Berta for a little over a year and it's one of my favorite cooking purchases along with my Joule sous vide and electric knife sharpener. It won't disappoint, the larger size fits most dinner parties…

Big Berta! megapot! I love this cauldron. When my wife isn't making potions I make chili out of it and it's everything I've ever wanted and more! Of course, the usual care of cast iron is required. Don't be an idiot, put this guy in the dishwasher and don't expect him to rust.

I bought what I thought was a beautiful pre-treated cast iron pot and lid for my husband's special Father's Day dinner on 16th June 2019. I have my dutch iron ahead of cooking washed as instructed. I cooked dinner in it and then immediately cleaned it. I'm very knowledgeable about cast iron, so I coated it with vegetable oil (also following Lodge's instructions) while it was still warm. I was shocked when the paper towel I used to cover it got rusty. The more I "seasoned" it, the more rust…

The house meets all expectations! I bought this to replace my grandma's brazier (her lid got lost in traffic). This pot was at least 100 years old. It didn't disappoint! Still the same superb production, same attention to detail. I love the self-closing lid. It's really pre-seasoned and made a great pot roast on the first night. It's hard, but not too hard. Nothing was sticking at all, I used a Lodge Roast Rack. Cleaning is a breeze, just hot water and a steel wool. I dry it on the stovetop…
