This dutch oven is awesome! I bought it for my husbands birthday. This cast iron pot comes pre seasoned We have now used it twice! the first time was Jambalaya and the second was red beans and rice! Both of these were done over an open fire and perfect. The clean up is easy and the pot is big enough to feed 15 people and still have leftovers! So very happy with my purchase and I would definitely recommend this Dutch oven to anyone!

I really researched my decision to buy a Dutch Oven and found the Camp Chef Deluxe 12 inch to be the one I needed. The 12 inch is not to big and not to small and in my opinion its the perfect size. The Camp Chef Deluxe comes with a thermostat cut in the pot and lid which if you want to close it off just turn the lid to off set the openings. Something I was concerned about was the clearance of the wire handle to open the lid while the pot is hanging and I gladly report there is room to open the lid! The Dutch Oven comes with a lid remover and is Seasoned ready to cook with after receiving it. I also like the lid legs for cooking on coals as a skillet good idea! The Dutch Oven seems to be of good quality and I'm really satisfied with the Purchase. Hope this helps!

We have not used this dutch oven yet. I am going to re-season it before I use it. Camp Chef cast iron is not as well preseasoned as Lodge products nor is it as smooth and nonstick as a well seasoned piece. However an oven and some lard quickly remedies this issue. It arrived undamaged and appears free of defects. I have not measured the volume but at a glance I think the oven is closer to 10 qts with the lid/griddle possibly being able to hold a quart or 2. I like the fact that the lid can be turned over for use as a griddle. It is definately large enough to hold enough content to feed my family of seven. Considering the price and the ease of seasoning it again. I would say it is a good value. Just don't plan to use it straight out of the box.

The item I received perfectly matched the description on the website with one exception. The web description said the lid had a picture of Grand Canyon national park and the item I received did not. I was pretty disappointed with that. I did not return the item because I needed it for a camping trip that weekend and did not have time to wait. Aside from not having the Grand Canyon on the lid it performed perfectly and I would recommend this product.
I got mine with damaged box from manufacturer and the inside of the oven is all scratched up not black but shiny metal. Very unhappy. Why does it say commemorative national parks nothing on this dutch oven? I don't know why people say it's high quality. I'm sticking to Lodge products which are the best quality. This one's going back to Walmart, junk.
This is a monster pot, big enough to hold a large pot roast or chicken, complete with carrots, onions and potatoes. It's good and heavy with a nice pre-finish. And a nice surprise! It comes WITH a lid-lifter, so you don't have to buy it separately.I think I'd like the finish to be built up a bit more, so I'm going to season it a few more times before I take it from the oven (yeah, not too fun getting the little legs in between the oven rack to use it) to an open campfire. Given the difference in price between this pot and the Lodge, I'm happy with my investment.
This pot is definitely not 10” deep, but less than 6”. Counting the legs on the bottom and on the lid, total height is about 8”.It arrived broken, the carton box is not strong enough to hold the weight of the pot so almost falling apart. The package looked beat-up, seems handled roughly during transit.
I love cast iron cook wear . I get warm fuzzes whenever I cook with it. The first thing I did when I got it use the lid to fry up some sliced potatoes. See Picture.This is perfect for my needs as 6 quart is too small and the 12 quart is too big for my stove. You get a dutch oven that transforms into a pot and a skillet. How cool is that!This Dutch Oven has feet and works on my gas stove without a problem. Even the lid works well as a skillet. Just need to rotate the lid a bit to find the sweet spot so it does not wobble due to the 3-D Yellow Stone Scene on the lid. I don't recommend using the lid on an electric stove as the loop in the center of the lid may get in the way.I weighed it and it is nearly 19 pounds! Heavy is good! Not easily knocked off the stove ... MoreI love cast iron cook wear . I get warm fuzzes whenever I cook with it. The first thing I did when I got it use the lid to fry up some sliced potatoes.

I don't recommend using the lid on an electric stove as the loop in the center of the lid may get in the way.I weighed it and it is nearly 19 pounds! Heavy is good! Not easily knocked off the stove which is a good thing in my book especially if you are using it for deep frying.The Thermometer slot was a bit small for my cheap glass meat thermometer with the metal tip. The digital ones or the all metal dial ones should fit. It inserts horizontally in the notch between the lid and the pot. You can close off the notch by simply rotating the lid a bit.The lid hook has two sides that allow you to hook it from directly above which allows more stability if you are using coals on the lid or from an angle when used under a stove hood.SeasoningI rinsed everything with hot water first.I find real butter seems to enhance the nonstick quality of seasoned cast iron better than vegetable oils.Even though it is pre-seasoned I season the cooking surfaces of the pot and lid separately before I use it by heating each up very hot on the stove. I then smear real butter all around the interior surface with a silicon spatula and let it smoke for about 5 min and then turn off the heat. You kitchen will fill with smoke so turn on the hood vent and open all the windows. If you can stand the smoke then do it longer say ten min to really get a good bond. Keep rubbing the butter around as it cools. Blot up the rest of the browned butter with a paper towel or two. Your cast iron cookware will be ready to use! YAY! :-DI use a quick version of the above procedure before I cook something that I know will be sticky like scrambled eggs or starchy potatoes if the cook surface looks dull and dry. I let the butter smoke for about a min then allow the cook ware to drop to cooking temperature and then add the food.The PROs of cast Iron:Steady even heat.It will last forever. You just re-season it if the nonstick stops working.You can use metal spatulas, forks, knives on the surface.If some of the black comes off its nice to know its just Oil. No "toxic" chemicals!You can't ruin it by leaving it on the stove with nothing in it! Just re-season it. Can't do that with other coated pans.You can bake with it.Cast IRON CONsCast Iron is not for everyone.It requires a certain amount of maintenance to keep it at its best. Some may find its more hassle than its worth.Everything on cast iron gets hot so no cool touch handle to grab. Always use oven mitts if you have to touch the cast iron.It's very heavy so not for people who have trouble lifting heavy things.It's not for Sanitizing Freaks. You never want to clean a cast iron pan completely as it has to have a thin film of oil on it to protect it. If you cook something and nothing sticks just wipe it out and you are done. The heat will kill any bacteria the next time you use the cast iron. I always heat up the empty pan before I cook and spread a bit of butter on it before I add the food.Can't clean it with a dishwasher. It will rust. If it does rust then just use a wire brush to remove the rust and re-season it.Its ugly! To some people. If you are looking for cookware that will shine and looks expensive then cast iron is just too old fashioned and poor looking.
Overall, a quality product that should last.Pros:It's cast iron, so it's obviously solidHandle is sturdy enough to be usefulLid grabber is basic, but functionalBase seasoning was pretty evenTrivet/skillet lid is niftyCons:Interior texture is a bit rougher than competition, making seasoning more difficultLid grabber basicThere's really nothing wrong with the pot. The rough interior meant that I had to go through my seasoning cycle about ten times instead of three or four, but it's in good shape now. The knobs on the lid to use as a skillet are the main reason I chose this model, and it works quite well.Go for it - totally worthwhile purchase if you're in the market.
I ordered this 3 days ago and it came today oct 6 2017. Now I really do like this. that is why it got 4 stars. I was told by camp chef when I called to see if I could order one (couldn't thru them I am in Canada, they have a few around here that sell theirs though all have National Park on them )and also seen on this ad (walmart)that it is a -Features• Yellowstone National Park Commemorative Edition.. NO WHERE on this dutch Oven is there anything to the National park. It is however, same as pictured on site.. Take off the info on Yellowstone on your site, since it is not one of those ovens .please... I was at Yellowstone last year is why I wanted that cast on my dutch oven..
