Your cart is empty.A flawless pairing of form and function, the Lodge Enameled Cast Iron Dutch Oven is a classic way to both prepare and serve memorable meals. This 7-quart enamel Dutch oven is great for cooking, marinating, refrigeration and freezing. The color porcelain enamel on cast iron can be used on gas, electric, induction cooktops, as well as in the oven. The cookware is cast from molten iron in individual sand molds then coated with multiple porcelain layers. The porcelain surface eliminates the need to season cast iron creating a smooth, hard surface that is easy to clean while maintaining superior heat distribution and heat retention. Better heat retention will actually reduce the amount of energy needed for cooking so it saves money. Tightly fitting lid seals in moisture. Stainless steel knob is oven safe to 500-Degree Fahrenheit. Not recommended for use on outdoor grills or over open outdoor flames. Not for use in microwaves. The black rim on the pot is matte enamel, not exposed cast iron. Although dishwasher safe, hand washing with warm soapy water is recommended to preserve the cookware's original appearance.

There's no way that I was going to spend the $$$ for a glazed Dutch Oven from Le Creuset or Staub. At a fraction of the price, you get a finely made and versatile cooking vessel from a company with more than 100 years of experience.From a whole chicken, to briskets to soups, our little red oven has done the job.If you've never used one, it takes some time to figure out how it will cook in your oven or stovetop. And it is not light. If your a lightweight cookware household, be prepared to always use two hands. Especially with a few pounds of stew meat!My only complaint is that the proximity to med-high/high heat seems to have altered the red color to become a lot more burgundy. I assume that this is just normal with age. Make sure you have some good silicon grips or handle holders nearby because this thing holds heat for a long time. It's not hard to clean, but TBH, it's not as easy as most of the other things in our kitchen. Just know that you will need a little more patience so not to ruin the ceramic interior or exteriors.Absolutely recommend anyone looking for a Dutch Oven to give this jem a try.

I wanted an oval Dutch oven so I could both bake bread and roast a chicken/turkey. This is a well though out design with huge handles that make it easy to grip when using pot holders. Some larger, more expensive options don't have an enamel interior coating and I didn't want to get into seasoning this pot. The cast iron distributes heat evenly but I like having the oval so that the outer edges stay out of the direct flame. When cooking skin on chicken thighs it is great to be able to move the first ones to the edges so they don't over cook. This Dutch oven is very heavy so consider that when purchasing. The lid fits properly and the packaging was handled properly. You will pass this on to future generation. This was $300 to $500 cheaper than similar models.

Very heavy and solid. Enamel has not chipped or had any problems. Easy to clean. Have baked many a thing in it and had no issues.

Great product. As functional as Le Cresuet for a lot less money. All enameled cookware are shipped with great care in packaging. Amazon shipped loose in big box with lid upside down with no cushion between lid and rim. Enamel had deep chips. The vessel was ruined. Lodge is a great piece of cookware. This should have been shipped in a Lodge box. It was not. The 5 stars are for Lodge

This cook pot works very well, as described. Mine is a dark red and looks great. It is large enough to make a paella dinner which was my first use. Problems are that it is very heavy and requires careful cleaning. The enamel lining made cleaning much easier than my cast iron uncoated cookware. I really like it but can use lt only occasionally.

I love this Dutch oven! The first item I made after receiving this was Julia Child’s beef bourguignon recipe and it was amazing. I seared the meat on the electric stove in this dish, browned onions and flavorings in it, and then the whole recipe in this dish went in the oven at 450 for a brief time, then the temp was reduced to a simmer for a longer period. The meat was moist and delicious. Heat transferred evenly to the parts of the dish that were not on the electric coils on the stove. All of the seared and baked-on juices were easy to clean off. (A couple of small stubborn spots were easily removed with baking soda.) I bought the white dish and there is no discoloration thus far.My second recipe was Julia’s whole roasted chicken. Again I seared the whole chicken on all sides until golden, right in this dish, and then the whole thing went right from stove top to oven, covered. Best chicken I’ve ever made. Again great cleanup, and the versatility of being able to use just this one dish is less complicated.This is a high-quality dutch oven at a better price and the oval shape fits a 4-pound whole chicken with room to spare. It would make a great gift that you could expect to have in your kitchen for a lifetime with proper care. I like this so much that I plan to purchase more pieces!

I’ve been using my oven to bake sourdough at 450 f. It’s been great and my bread turns out perfect.

I have ordered the pot as a Christmas gift. It chipped immediately on a first use, then enamel is coming off the bottom just from sitting on the stove and the lid edge is rusting from washing it. I regret this purchase.
