Learn how to get started dutch oven cooking. How to properly heat your dutch oven, what equipment to buy, and common mistakes to avoid. Episode 4132. And if you thought dutch ovens were just for camping, think again, they can be used in the backyard or for any meal of the week.
This is literally the best Dutch Oven video I’ve ever watched…
Correction: Cast Iron is a terrible conductor of heat. One of the worst metals for conducting heat. What it is though is a great retainer of heat.
True, and you wouldn't want to use a material that conducts heat really well for this type of cooking because you'd just end up burning all your food. That's why I don't like cooking with copper or aluminum.
EXACTLY what I was hoping to see and learn. How often can you say you found EXACTLY what you were looking for on KZhead without seeing 10 or 15 videos first. Thank you, Thank you!!!
Going through the "Dutch Oven Cooking 101" videos this is THE most informative and educational vid out there. Thank you for putting this together.
Thank you!
I learned more in this video then any 10 other DO videos. THANKS! Well done
what he said!!! thumbs up!
Thank you!
This video is legit. I actually learned something and watched the whole thing.
Put a tablespoon of vegtable oil on your newspaper. Let it soak in and light the paper. It does wonders.
Okay, but how does it taste? Lol
Your presentation was calm, concise and connected. I, until now, was unaware of the 1/3 bottom, 2/3 top formula. How simple and fool-proof! Thank you.
Put the lid in bag first then the pot and the legs rest on the lid protecting the bag from the legs and airing the pot. CHEERS !
Finally, a good tutorial. Thank you from a newbie
I am now motivated to dig out mine and get to cooking.
I'm doing Pigs in a cornfield next weekend in mine on a 4 wheelin trip with some buddies. I can't watch enough D.O. cooking videos.
That sounds great. Let us know how it turns out!
At about 12 minutes, some distracting background music became noticeable. It was loud enough to drown out certain words in the presentation. Quite frustrating while trying to hear the presentation. Otherwise, great video! A nice straightforward introduction to outdoor cooking tools and how to use them safely. (I never heard of a coal chimney. Great invention!)Cant wait to make my first stew. Thanks!👍
So many good ideas. Going to bookmark this.
Im new to Dutch ovens and wow after only 10 minutes in I had to stop and write a comment. You are smart, thoughtful and so specific in your knowledge of the great outdoors. Thanks to you.
Excellent advice. Thanks for posting.
I use hardwood lump charcoal. It lasts longer than the bricketts and burns hotter so you use less.
Awesome content! I’m already hooked! Thank you guys!
You guys are awesome. Thank you for this information.
I bought a Dutch Oven for camping. Thanks for showing me how to use it!
This is a great video and incredibly helpful, thank you!
Most educational show on KZhead. Thanks much. I'm Zimbabwean, we have similar pots, very heavy but with a rounded bottom.
Thanks for watching in Zimbabwe!
Thank you Tom for sharing all of the info.
Great host and, like others have said, best instructor on Dutch ovens, I’ve seen on this platform. Seeing the top turned into a griddle changed my life!!😊 Hope more videos from this instructor will be posted.
really great tutorial - thank you, fantastic job
Thank you for doing this. It is really handy to share with other people instead of having to expect them to memorize it when you're in the woods or camp!! Gotta try that dump cake this coming weekend....
I was hoping you would open the oven before signing off. Hope the crew enjoyed a great treat in the "outdoors."
This is just awesome! Thank you so much for this great video😁❤
Thanks for the great video learned a lot !
One f the best 101s....thanks for putting together
Thanks for the hard work you really put I to the video I love cookie g in the Dutch oven and I learned even more than I ever thought I would. Outstanding
You both are fantastic. Thank you so much for showing this formula. WoW!
Lyn does a great job explaining the variables in baking using the Dutch oven.
Absolutely wonderful tutorial! Thank you! Very thorough! I inherited a Dutch Oven from my grandmother, and I'm looking forward to using it on my camping trips. New Sub!
Thank you for all the information .
Outstanding information. Thanks very much.
Thank you so much for sharing...Very informative great video...☮️
Thank you for doing this. Very useful information.
this is the most informational video on dutch ovens thanks so much !
One of the best informative videos ive come across thank you!
Thanks for a great video. I’ve been grilling on a kamado grill and am planning on adding dutch oven cooking to my game. Some good info here. Would love to try homemade meatballs in the oven.
Excellent instruction. Like the others said, I learned more in this video than 10 others.
Thanks Tom, for the great video. I am going to buy my first dutch oven.
exactly what i needed to see. good formula!
Awesome video. I got alot of information out of it, especially the charcoal formula.
Great video. Thank you.
Thank you so much for making this video. It was just fantastic and covered a lot of the mysteries that I needed to understand to be successful.
Thank you for this!!!
Great vid, thank you!
Thank you so much for the video! love it
Extremely educational! Fantastic video. Thank you!
I loved the video on how to setup and cook in the dutch oven outside and that is what mine will be primarily used for. I just received my first dutch oven and is planning on using it to cook a meal outside along with a cast iron skillet which my grandmother used during her lifetime to cook with on her wood stove. We still have the large cast iron pot which my grandmother used to heat water to wash clothes in and also make lard and cracklings in during the season when hogs was killed. That pot is now cracked, but is still used in my sister's home.
Thank you for taking the time to do a wonderful presentation I appreciate that cheers Florida
Great video! Thank you so much!! How did this get 3 thumbs down?
Great 👍 information! Thanks 😊!
Very informative. I really appreciate it. Can't wait to try it out! New Sub!
Excellent presentation.Very informative.
I use a 28 inch plow disc for a firepan,,, your idea is much lighter,, but I do utilize the disc as a wok
very informative! Thanks.
Wow. Amazing. Thanks so much. I can't wait to start cooking with this 👍🤗 You're an awesome teacher 👌😍
Great information, thank you
Cool video,thanks for the tips
Excellent video. Extremely informative, thank you!
Thanks for watching!
Great video.
Great info. Good video.
You are so inspiring...!!!💖💖💖💖
I was ready to give this 5 stars but the peach cobbler bit was so underdone, I just can't. Great speaking voice and presentation, I'll try to checkout more recent videos, maybe they get better.
Excellent video. What was the liner you used before putting in the cobbler ingredients?
On using the oven bag I place it open on the table, then invert the oven and place it in the bag with the legs up, I then put the lid in on top of the legs. It seems to work well for me
This absolutely the best video I have ever seen on Dutch Ovens. So many questions answered, pro tips and wisdom here.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Awesome vid Will pass on to my buds
Very helpful.
THANK YOU!!!!!
Thank you
Very good video. Be careful of the galvanized pan. The galvanized coating lets off toxic fumes when heated. I would burn a fire in it first, then start cooking. The pan is a great idea other than that.
Agree. I myself just would NOT use a galvanized metal pan at all.
New sub...great vid! 😎👍🔥🇨🇦
Once heated up I have kept the dutch oven heated up to fry fish with just as few yard sticks occasionally.
Thanks
Best learning ever
Thanks for watching!
Thank You so much !!!!
Thank you for watching!!
Yummy !
I, too, am concerned about anything galvanized
Where do you get the pans that you set the coals and Dutch oven in while cooking?
Me to,and I subscribed 😊
I live in Arkansas and have two dutch ovens which was made by Lodge and I love them both. One have legs for cooking outside, and the other don't have legs so it can be used on the stove top or in the oven. We lose electricity and sometimes it takes days to get it back on so we have food ruined unless we can cook it in the dutch oven. That is a great presentation on how to use the dutch oven and I love the way she presented it. I love this video so much and the information you all have shared with us all. I believe that most people should own a dutch oven so they can cook their meals outside if they lose their electricity for any length of time and want to feed their family.
Thank you for watching!
Good video, even though I have grown up around them, and have used them for years, never EVER hurts to see other peoples methods, although not much different. Except gotta be honest, peach cobbler, I just can't do it. No way. I will go with a pineapple upside down cake or a berry cobbler. I blame my grandmother. Thanks for sharing!
How do you make the upside down pineapple and the berry one? ☝
What town are y'all in
Where did you get the round charcoal pan that holds your charcoal while cooking? Might you have a link to it?? Thanks
If you search for Metal Feed Pan in your search engine you will find a lot of places to source one.
On the peach cobbler, I didn’t see any liquid added. Also, what kind of paper was used inside the Dutch oven?
The liquid comes from the peach cans and the butter. About the paper maybe he used wax paper the one you use for cookies.
What if you want to use wood instead of charcoal?
You will need to rotate your oven a lot more with a wood fire, also be cautious of your temps as a straight fire can be hotter. I believe we explain the hand temperature gauge technique above. depending on how long you can hold your hand near the fire is a good estimation on how high the temperature is... Now if you are using wood charcoal that is a different story and we would suggest you perfecting the hand temperature gauge technique.
Do you oil the oven for the dump cake? Is that parchment in the oven for the cake? Length of cooking as on pkg? Thank you for your tips!
Yes, don't 350 and 45 minutes or so is ideal. It depends on outside temps, etc. The parchment is all you need to use...although you can skip the parchment and cook with oil as well.
@@outdooroklahomaodwc Thank you! Enjoyed your video:)
Oh Yeah, looked absolutely delish! Now just need to convert to gluten free and sugar free, or at least low sugar, gonna have fun experimenting with that. Very informative video too and now I've got some formulas to use. Thank you so much.
What are you lining your ove with?
parchment paper
I wanted to more of the cake.
Great video, but would have been better to hear her without the music.
Good video but I can't tàke the music. I know they are all doing it but it takes away from informative videos.
Thanks for video just too much talking not enough cooking
