The Ultimate Dutch Oven is the hottest, fastest cooking accessory on the market. Combining old-style outdoor flavor and modern cooking technology, this advanced cast iron black pot is quickly becoming known as “the outdoor microwave.” Cast iron is a great heat conductor, transferring and holding heat, or cold. The convection-style Ultimate Dutch Oven has taken traditional meals to gourmet levels. These simple tips will help you get the most from your new Ultimate Dutch Oven.
Preparing Cast Iron for Use:
- Place your cast iron upside down on your Camp Chef outdoor cooker, a barbecue, or in your home oven. When burning off the wax on your cookware the wax will smoke. This step is best done outside to avoid excess smoke in the kitchen. When smoking stops, remove from heat.
- When cool, wash your oven thoroughly with a citrus based soap and water. Be sure to rinse and dry completely. (Note: Soap can remove the seasoning of your cast iron if you don’t restore it after cleaning.
- Saturate a clean cloth rag with Camp Chef Cast Iron Conditioner. Coat all surfaces of the cast iron. Place on or in heat source upside down and heat to 375° - 400°F. Cookware will smoke as the seasoning bakes. As smoking begins to slow remove from heat. Use or let cool and store.
- After each use, apply a small amount of Camp Chef Cast Iron Conditioner, and thinly coat all surfaces of the cast iron. Over time, this will make your cast iron black—creating a finish called a “patina.” This enhances your cast iron by creating a glass-like finish, giving it a non-stick surface.
Temperatures:
Avoid rapid changes in temperatures. cast iron will crack and break if taken directly from hot to cold or cold to hot conditions.for recipes requiring both hot and cold temperatures, allow the oven to slowly cool and adjust. Store your Dutch oven in a safe, dry area. We recommend using a Camp Chef Dutch oven carry/storage bag.
Convection style cooking relies on the unobstructed flow of hot air.
The vent cone in the center of the oven allows the hot air from the
burner to enter and flow around the inside of the Ultimate Dutch Oven;
cooking the food more quickly and evenly than traditional Dutch Ovens.
The center cone also allows the food to cook from the middle
outward.The deep dish lid gives plenty of head room for added air
circulation while doubling as a deep skillet.
The heat cone drives heat into the center of the oven, dispersing and
circulating heat throughout, giving superior convection cooking. The
heat cone eliminates the use of charcoal for top heat for the majority
of dishes.
Another great benefit of the convection style design is HEALTHY COOKING. Because the Ultimate Dutch Oven incorporates convection style cooking, it needs no oil or lard to perfectly roast and cook any meal. Your meals are healthy and low in oil when you use Camp Chef's Ultimate Dutch Oven.
