My first time use was to deep fry some chicken to help season it further. It performed beautifully. I love it. <3
Treat yourself (or the cook in your life) this holiday season and get the Lodge Logic 5 Quart Double Dutch oven with Skillet Cover. Seriously.
Great deep fryer, (What's this?) I purchased this oven solely to use as a deep fryer instead of using the Le Creuset French ovens I already own. It's a little taller and flares more than a comparable LC vessel meaning that I have a deeper reservoir of oil and still a comfortable margin of safety. Cast iron is perfect for deep frying foods such as rumaki, onion rings, tempura, deep fried shrimp, calamari, fish filets for fish tacos, etc. Once your optimum temperature is achieved you can reduce the burner to a lower flame as the heat holding qualities of cast iron ensure a lesser temperature drop off than stainless or aluminum vessels. Unlike the other Lodge Dutch ovens, this model doesn't have a lip extension for the lid which means a clip on thermo will fit the side without a problem.
I'm in love!, (What's this?) I've used this twice in the short period that I've had it.
First, yes it is heavy. But I'm no weight trainer and managed just fine when it had a nice sized roast in it. I figure using this will help keep my muscles tone as I age :)
I never did buy a brush to clean it with, so I've been using coarse salt. That works just fine. I paper towel dry it, then let the pilot light in my oven make sure it's completely dry before coating with a bit of olive oil.
I'm curious, are we supposed to treat the outside of it with oil too?
So far, It's been on the stove top (gas) to brown the meat, in the oven to cook, and on the grill to cook. I love the fact that this thing is at home anywhere. I bought it to replace a slow cooker.
If however, you want to do a turkey, you need a bigger size. This can easily handle dinner for 4 however, and I love the one pot meal concept......yet everything cooks like it had it's own pot. The barley, despite being at the bottom of the pot for 5 hours, was not mushy. The meat and sweet potatoes were tender.
Cast Iron Two-fer from Lodge, (What's this?) I bought this as a gift and it was very well received. The reviews helped secure my decision to purchase this. The idea that both the top and bottom can be used independently really sealed the deal. Nothing holds the heat as well as cast iron and I trust Lodge's quality. This should last a lifetime. Great combination.
Use the lid almost daily, (What's this?) A few years ago, I was tired of cooking on Made in China "non stick" cookware and looked for something Made in the USA. Lodge Logic cast iron pans fits the bill. All of their original cast iron line is still made here. IF you are looking for Made in the USA, avoid their Enameled Cast Iron line ("Made to our exact specifications in China").
Product was very good - Amazon was not so good., (What's this?) The Lodge Dutch Oven was very good as I knew it would be.
My experience with Amazon was very disappointing. There was an error during the ordering process and I had to submit the order again. I ended up with two Dutch Ovens ordered.
Within five minutes of placing the order I tried to cancel one of the orders and Amazon said it was too late. I ended up with two Lodge Dutch Ovens. The error was not my fault but a problem on the Amazon site.
Lodge Logic, (What's this?) We have enjoyed the Lodge Logic cast iron cookware. We have had no problems with them & in fact, have only had good experiences with them. We use them on a regular basis.
In another review, there was concern about sticking. We do not normally have a problem, and if we do, it is usually because we have washed it with soap. It is best not to wash it with soap, and to ALWAYS put a light coating of oil on it after use, and separate them with a paper towel.
The Lodge Logic website www.lodgemfg.com has a "Use & Care" section that gives very good information about care of cast iron cookware. We highly recommend reading it prior to using the cast iron cookware. It gives instructions well beyond the little booklets that come with the product.
The other thing we enjoy about two particular items is that you get two items for one. The top is a cast iron lid that can also be used as a skillet, and we do.

Lodge 5qt. dutch oven, (What's this?) I bought this dutch oven for camp fire cooking. I wanted a lid for it. Lodge lid also doubles as skillet. The chili is always better and the popcorn is the "goodist" according to my grand daughter.
Awesome Product Line, (What's this?) We recently had to return a gift of the Martha Stewart pots because apparently the ceramic explodes and chips. Yikes!! So we looked for a replacement and we just love this entire product line.
versatile!, (What's this?) love this pot and lid! the lid is great for cooking small dishes for two or three, scrambles eggs nicely and good for a grilled cheese or small quesadillas or omelets. and, not having a traditional long handle makes it easier to store. the pot is a great size - large enough for stews and boiling potatoes and pasta, but not gigantic and still easy to store (and lift to the sink). invert the lid onto the pot and it's a small double boiler. takes a while to heat the pot for searing on an induction cooktop. eggs stick if it's not hot enough but cook perfectly if it's the right temperature.
