I wish this guy was my neighbor. Not only could I leave my spare key with him, I could get invited to some cookouts.

Thank you so much for your tips. My wife and I cook with cast-iron for 32 years and my wife knew how to keep them treated, but the Good Lord called her home and I need all the tips you can give so I don't ruin her beloved cast-iron. Thank you and God bless 🙏

I bought my first Dutch oven today and I’m going to use the neighbors fire pit to practice. Kent is my cast iron hero.

Practice, practice and more practice. That is the key to cooking.

Years age I bought Lodge 12 " dutch oven and 12 " skillet. Took them to my work shop and polished the lid and skillet surface smooth and re-seasoned them. Use the lid for pancakes, both work great.
I would recommend this for anyone

I use my cast iron Dutch oven on the stove top as a deep fryer for fish. Man, is that some good fish! And talk about a well seasoned piece of cast iron! Thanks for all the great tips, Kent. You truly are The Master!

Hi Kent and Shannon. Really great informative video. Plenty of good tips when cooking outside with the iron. And YES…one CAN burn things very easy if you aren’t being aware. I was on a campout years ago with my Boy Scout troop and they wanted to make peach cobbler. We lined the #12 oven with foil for easier cleaning and poured in the mixture. We made a double batch and the boys said to cook it twice as long…so I did. I hadn’t made cobbler in iron before. Lots of other stuff, but this was my first baki g adventure. At about 30 minutes you could smell the cobbler just fine. I should have taken it off the heat right then, but left it for another 20 minutes. We laughed like crazy for the next 2 hours because I lifted the cobbler, now a black burnt hockey puck! There was just enough in the center for the 10 of us to have about a tablespoon a piece. I learned a valuable lesson that night. A double recipe doesn’t always mean double cooking time! Thank goodness my scouts were forgiving!

I have used dutch ovens since I was 9 years old. I have my grandfather's oven (12 inch) and my mother's(12 inch)
Favorite dish is biscuits in one and beff/lamb stew in other.
Never any left overs.
Thanks for all you and Ms SHANNON do.

[MLukacs]

Kent and Shan, this is a great video! In under 17 minutes, you provide a wealth of knowledge about cooking with a Dutch oven/camp stove, which I imagine you’ve acquired through trial and error. Everything you said is the Gospel truth. Thank you for saving your viewers time and headaches. I’ll put in a plug for your trivets. They’re the best! Thanks again for all you do!!

[Casinogirl]

This channel is always an education....I have learned things I didn't know I needed to.

Hi from Syracuse NY everyone thank you for sharing your cooking adventures

In scouts growing up, we camped every month out of the year. When that camping was not primitive, we always had our Dutch oven, and the go to all of the time was peach cobbler. Some Bisquick and a can of peaches always made the best dessert!
