Lodge Enameled Cast Iron Dutch Ovens - 5.5 Quart Red

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.

We have been looking for a Dutch oven for a while and while in Walmart we saw this Lodge one for a great price. We wanted to see if it was available in a different color the sale assc. told us to check online. We found the same price and the right color on the website.

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 have already used it 3 times. First time was making a chocolate Stawberry chocolate chip sourdough bread it came out amazing 🤩 2nd time I used it I made my chicken tortilla filling , 3rd was homemade baked beans. I have no problem on top of the gas stove or in the oven at 500 degrees for the sourdough bread. Wished I bought it sooner!

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.

I love this pot. The inside does stain, but that’s normal for enamel. Can’t beat it for the price. Highly recommend I did have to return the one I ordered online due to it getting a big chip on handle from sloppy delivery. The delivery person, instead of walking up the 3 cement steps, choose to set it up on the porch upside down on the handles. The broken pieces were inside the packing bag .

Oooooh, I'm in love. It's versatile. A bit hard to clean, but can it cook. The only issue is the weight. This pot weighs at least 10 pounds empty. And with the lid on it's tall--I had to move my oven racks. the color is fabulous! If you have never had a dutch oven (me), it will drive you to cook new things in new ways.

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.
