Lodge 5.5 qt Enameled Cast Iron Dutch Oven with Loop Handles, Red

I LOVE this Dutch Oven. Nice and heavy and heats up beautifully. I got the red color it's easier to see when it gets hot it turns a darker red so you remember not to touch it bare handed lol! You'll love cooking in this as you get an even cooking experience.

I can't believe how wonderful this is! Much better than a slow cooker, 2 hours at 350 and the roast melts in your mouth, incredibly easy to clean. Beef stew is insanely good, chicken noodle soup better than any store bought!! And I've only had this a week!!! It is a bit heavy, but it is easy to clean an no forever chemicals, just baked on enamel.

I originally purchased this to bake sourdough bread in (still waiting on the starter to be ready). In the meantime, I used it for making lasagna soup and a batch of rice. Both turned out great. The Dutch oven is quite heavy and is really good quality. Food doesn't stick to the interior, and it's easy to clean. The lasagna soup obviously was made with marinara, but that washed off easily without leaving a stain on the cream interiors. Even my picky husband is impressed and excited to cook more with the Dutch oven this winter. Highly recommend!

I just spent $45 on this and when I received it, there's clearly a reduced sticker on it that says it's only $26.80. SERIOUSLY?? Why would Walmart think someone would be stupid enough not to see this. What a rip off. It's going back!!! Really bad business practice Walmart!!!

Love love love this pot. I used it a lot since I bought it. I got a great deal on it. It was a rollback. I'm very pleased with the way. It cooks things and it's overall appearance. I would like to add that rubbing out avocado oil all in the inside of the enamel, and around the edges, gives a smoky flavor and keeps everything from burning.

I wanted to purchase a Dutch oven as an Christmas/anniversary present for my boyfriend and I to expand our culinary capabilities, and I was delighted to find this affordable alternative to the pricey Le Creusets. I’m impressed by the quality and the quick turnaround on the delivery so close to Christmas- we were able to make some delicious short ribs for Christmas!

There is nothing to dislike……the Dutch oven is heavy, but to be expected considering the materials it’s made of. Mine is blue %26 arrived in perfect condition. I immediately used it for Thanksgiving on the cooktop. The lid holds heat in wonderfully and this saved space for cooking inside my oven stove. Might also say, I have an induction range which lodge cast iron works beautifully with. I have a much larger Dutch oven but I believe this 5.5 qt. size will be more versatile for my husband %26 me.

At first I like the size and I love cooking/ baking with cast iron, so the enamel interior made it easy to clean. but after a few uses I noticed that the enamel was chipped on the inside. I hand wash all my cookware and I don't use metal utensils so i don't know when or how the chips occurred. It says the max baking temp is 550⁰and i haven't gotten near that, i don't break 500⁰. So now I'm stuck with a heavy pot that i can't use, who wants to get enamel on their soup.

I haven't even used it yet. I literally just opened it and this what it looks like! I am so mad!! And that's an understatement just because this is public! This issue is happening way too often with Walmart!! I absolutely love Lodge Cast Iron products I have several pieces but makes me extremely angry 🤬

Walmart delivered this gift in a bag. It should have been put in a box with packing material for protection Who knows what it was banging against on the delivery truck? Seems like a no-brainer to me, considering how expensive Lodge items are. It should have been cared for in a much better way. Now my gift has caused a problem for the person I was showering with love.
