Like this better than my enamel coated dutch ovens.
The Smithey Dutch oven is non-enameled and naturally seasoned with a pure grape-seed oil. While great for breads, soups, stews and more- boiling pasta or water is not the best use of your Smithey Dutch oven.
A well-seasoned Smithey does not fear any acidic dishes. Before diving into chili and tomato sauces however, we recommend establishing a more mature seasoning layer through baking or frying.
Yes! When using as a campfire Dutch oven we recommend inverting your lid so coals will stay on top.

I don't cook for a large crowd and this is not only a piece of art, it is amazing. My first cook was smothered fried chicken. I say smothered because I fry with the lid on and that helps the chicken stay moist and tender, yet it's still really crisp.
Next thing up will be Chicken adobo, and I can hardly wait.
This thing is heavy, but it stays on my stove top anyway, so that's not a problem. I have almost a complete set of SMITHEY and love every one.
Beautiful!!!
This Dutch oven is my new favorite! It’s the perfect size and amazing quality.
I am so glad I decided to make this purchase with Smithey. I absolutely love this dutch oven, it's definitely the best!
