Comments about Lodge Logic Deep Dutch Oven - 8 Qt.:
This dutch oven is awesome for cooking large stews, soups, or large sides of meat. Google Sheryl Canter's "Chemistry of Cast Iron Seasoning: A Science-Based How-To" for the VERY BEST way to re-season and/or thicken the seasoning on cast iron.

Comments about Lodge Logic Deep Dutch Oven - 8 Qt.:
I own a quite a few pieces of Cast Iron Cookware and am an aficionado of Lodge, Wagner, Griswold products. For the money and the quality, there is no better Dutch Oven in my mind. It was preseasoned, cleans up easy, and does not rust. Highly recommended.

Comments about Lodge Logic Deep Dutch Oven - 8 Qt.:
This is great for car camping. Lodge Dutch ovens are awesome. Yes, it is heavy, but cast iron is. I really like cooking with this oven. Not too difficult to season or clean. The 8 qt size is pretty big and filled with chili or stew will easily feed ~10 or so folks, just don't forget the cornbread... ;)

Comments about Lodge Logic Deep Dutch Oven - 8 Qt.:
The Lodge 8-quart is far more versatile than the smaller 6-quart. It's extra depth allows deep frying, baking and larger portions of stews and even whole chickens. The difference in weight is negligible.
In my Boy Scout Troop, we make pies, cakes, stews, cornish hens, pizza . . . you name it! If you can bake it at home, you can bake it in camp! For stews, soups and chili, you can use the pot on a propane stove as a 'regular' dutch oven (just be sure of the clearance around the burner for the legs) with or without coals on top.
With this deeper oven, I use an inverted pie pan under cakes, pies and pizzas to keep them nearer the center of the oven for even heating and never a burned bottom. For the pizza, we give each boy a sheet of foil about 18" wide and the dough (or ready-made shell) and let them prepare their own pie to their liking . . . the foil then gets put right into the oven with the longer side crimped right into the lid, making it easy to remove AND clean up after!
There's a reason these pots have been in use since colonial times, they are even-heating, easy to maintain, and versatile nearly to a fault!
