It's a good value. This Dutch Oven is a perfect size for two to four people, and the cast iron will be sure to hold up for many, many years while he builds camping memories. This was on my college-age son's Christmas wish list. He is very eager to get out into the campgrounds of the Pacific Northwest and use his many outdoor cooking skills learned while becomming an Eagle Scout.
Thank you. This is NOT for "true" outdoor tent camping in the woods, but would be suited for a cabin or RV. This cookbook for the Dutchoven was delivered promptly. It seems to have several good recipes in it, but several of them are meant for home use and not for camping - at least not without a great amount of pre-preparation of food items that will be used.
You can change some of the ingredients to fit the needs and likes of your family This is a great cookbook for people that are new using a Dutch Oven. I have tried alot of the recipes and they are very easy to make and are really good.
C'mon Vern. Other cookbooks of the same genre have several recipes on beans. I realize beans are easy, but if you have the picture on your cover, you should have at least 1 recipe.
I planned on integrating it into my new smoker and also I've heard they're great for chili, beans, roasts, etc. Even the cover has a picture of a Dutch Oven filled with beans, but inside, nothing. I bought myself a Dutch Oven and thought it would be nice to complement with a book on how to use it.
Yes, I know, chili, etc, but still. Major mistake. Well, this morning I started to prep my first meal, and with a smoked brisket, I thought a great addition would be pinto beans (please see photo of pinto beans on the front cover of the book).
Well, I find it odd that this book has literally no recipe for pinto beans.
We haven't had the book that long but we've already enjoyed some of the recipes we found inside. I bought this book for my husband, who loves to cook in dutch ovens.This is the first recipe book I've seen that has the coal count and placement. The recipes are clear and easy to understand.
