THE CASE FOR
OUR CAST IRON

NO CHEMICAL COATINGS

Unlike many non-stick pans, every piece of Smithey cast iron is completely free of PFOA, PFAS, and PTFE. Instead, we pre-season our cookware with pure grapeseed oil, building a naturally nonstick surface that only gets better with use.

INVEST IN YOUR KITCHEN

Your grandchildren will thank you! We’ve designed and crafted every Smithey to withstand the test of time, become even better with age, and be an heirloom in your family’s kitchen. 

USE IT ANYWHERE

From kitchens to campfires, your Smithey is at home wherever there is heat
and is designed to work on all sources, from gas and fire to induction and
electric. And don’t worry, it won’t scratch your stovetop.

EASY TO CLEAN

Cast iron gets a bad rap for being hard to clean. We’re here to bust that myth and let you know that polished cast iron is easy to clean. Unlike rough cast iron, which allows food to get stuck in the crevices, polished cast iron like Smithey has a smooth surface that practically wipes clean. And, despite popular belief, you can use soap.

FAQ’s:
5.5 QT Dutch Oven

We stand behind the quality of our cast iron and carbon steel cookware. If your cookware is defective, we’ll replace it. If your cookware fails you after honest and normal use, we’ll repair or replace it.

Is the Smithey Dutch oven enameled?

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.

Can I cook acidic dishes in my 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.

Can I put coals on top of the lid?

Yes! When using as a campfire Dutch oven we recommend inverting your lid so coals will stay on top.

I’m in love

I think it’s safe for me to admit that I have a Smithey addiction. I absolutely adore cast iron and have a collection of vintage and new (including Butterpat, Stargazer and Field). They’re all really good but Smithey is at the top of my list and is the only one I now have multiples of (and with more in mind)! They clean like a dream and even the most stick-prone foods slide around like they’re skating on ice. My husband laughs because I always show him the pan after cooking and say “look! NOTHING left! Crazy!”. I’ve gifted them (and received as gifts bc my addiction is well known), and recommend to anyone looking to get into cast iron. They’re thoughtfully made workhorses while also being beautiful works of art.
