Lodge Cast Iron Camp Dutch Oven 6 Quart, #L12CO3

The Ultimate Outdoor Cooking System - Three Tools in One

The Lodge 6-Quart Camp Dutch Oven is the legendary outdoor cooking vessel that has fed adventurers from colonial hearth fires to the campfires of Lewis and Clark. This 12-inch cast iron masterpiece isn't just a pot—it's a complete outdoor cooking system with three distinct functions: a dutch oven for slow-cooked meals, a griddle when you flip the lid, and a coal-top oven when you pile coals on the flanged lid. Includes the Camp Dutch Oven Cooking 101 cookbook to get you started!

Three Cooking Methods in One Pot

• Dutch Oven Mode: Cook stews, chili, pot roasts, beans, and one-pot meals with the lid on. The 6-quart capacity feeds 6-8 hungry campers
• Griddle Mode: Flip the lid upside down and use it as a griddle for pancakes, bacon, eggs, or grilled sandwiches
• Coal-Top Baking: The flanged lid holds hot coals or briquettes on top, creating an oven effect perfect for biscuits, cornbread, cobblers, and even cakes

Designed Specifically for Outdoor Cooking

• Three Integral Legs: Sit the oven directly over hot coals or campfire embers—no grate needed. The legs keep the pot stable and at the perfect height
• Flanged Lid: Raised rim holds hot coals or briquettes on top for true oven-style baking. Creates heat from above and below for perfect biscuits and cobblers
• Wire Bail Handle: Hang from a tripod over the fire or use for easy carrying and positioning. The bail handle swings freely for versatile cooking setups
• Perfect 6-Quart Capacity: 12-inch diameter, 3.75-inch depth—ideal size for family camping, scout troops, or outdoor gatherings
• Pre-Seasoned: Ready to use right out of the box with Lodge's foundry seasoning

The Secret to Perfect Outdoor Baking

The flanged lid is what makes camp dutch oven cooking magical. By placing hot coals or briquettes on top of the lid, you create an oven environment with heat from above and below. This allows you to bake perfect biscuits, golden cornbread, and bubbling fruit cobblers right over the campfire—something regular dutch ovens can't do.

A Piece of American History

Camp dutch ovens fed our nation's progression from the original 13 colonies to the far reaches of the American West. Lewis and Clark relied on cast iron dutch ovens during their expedition. Cowboys cooked over campfires with them on cattle drives. Today, they're essential equipment for scouts, campers, outdoor enthusiasts, and dutch oven cooking competitions.

The three legs keep it stable on uneven ground, and the bail handle makes it easy to hang from a tripod or move around the fire.
