About this item
- YOUR GO-TO DUTCH OVEN: A flawless pairing of form and function that doesn't quit. The Lodge Dutch Oven not only makes your kitchen look good but is an enameled cast iron classic great for preparing and serving memorable meals. Broil, braise, bake or roast your favorite meals in the oven up to 500 Degree F.
- WHAT IS PORCELAIN ENAMEL ON CAST IRON. It is glass that becomes bonded to the cast iron at high temperatures. A particulate of glass, called frit, is applied to the cast iron vessel and then baked at temperatures between 1200 and 1400° F. The glass frit melts and fuses to the cast iron, forming a bond. Porcelain enamel on cast iron is heat tolerant and impervious to water and other consumables.
- EASY TO COOK AND CLEAN: The porcelain enameled interior has a smooth finish that minimizes sticking, promotes caramelization and resists staining. Although enameled cast iron is dishwasher safe, hand washing with warm soapy water and a nylon scrub brush is recommended to keep your Dutch Oven in tip top shape
- HEAT RETENTION: The cast iron vessel has superior heat distribution and retention, evenly heating throughout both the bottom and sidewalls. The tightly fitting lid seals in moisture for scrumptious pot roast, stews or a large batch of beans. Our heat retention also reduces the amount of energy needed for cooking.
- FAMILY-OWNED. Lodge is more than just a business; it’s a family. The Lodge family founded the company in 1896, and they still own it today. From environmental responsibility to community development, their heads and hearts are rooted in America. Products made with non-toxic, PFOA & PTFE free material.

This one is from Lodge - one of the leading names in cast iron cookware. While made in China, immediate inspection and cleaning only showed a couple of small imperfections that won't impact the durability and longevity of this pan.
I mentioned this is a replacement. The prior one was from a 'no name' brand and lasted about 10 years. We had changed color in the kitchen and because of how we store it (on the cooktop), we needed to update the color of the dutch oven as well. The 'old' one was put into the box that this one came in and is in the garage just in case we choose to bring it back into the kitchen!
Cast iron conducts heat extremely well. The distribution is very even - if the material is evenly spread across the bottom. It also holds heat well allowing a very slow 'cool down' when cooking.
This is enamel coated meaning it cleans up easily and well. A common complaint of uncoated cast iron is that it never really cleans up well. While potentially true, that is not the case with an enamel coated pan.
So what would you do with it? I have used it for krispie bars (the butter & marshmallows met great) , soups, stews, browning meat (it can go into the oven too) and even cooking bacon (sides make it hard for the splatters to escape).
We have looked at smaller (4 qt) and larger (7+ qt) but decided that for us - a 6qt one is the sweet spot. It is big enough to handle the larger cooking needs while small enough to handle and move without too much difficulty.
For those of you who have/have used enameled cast iron dutch ovens, you know what this is and already know that it is an easy 5 star rating. For those who haven't experienced it, what are you waiting for? Lodge is affordable and works great.
