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:
3.5 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.

Does the 3.5 QT Dutch oven lid fit any of your other cookware?

No, currently the 3.5QT lid only fits our 3.5QT Dutch oven.

New sourdough bread pot

After nearly many years of hard work, I finally retired my 3.5 quart French cast iron Dutch oven and replaced it with the 3.5 quart Smithey. I’m more than pleased with the results. While the old pot performed very well for many years, the Smithey outperformed it on the first try. I’ve also made soup in it, and it’s great. Well worth the investment.

I have previously bought nearly the entire line of carbon steel pieces, and I use them daily. Smithey pans are superb.
