A Dutch oven is a cast iron pot with three legs and a lipped lid. This cookware is typically used for baking at the campground. By placing a desired number of charcoals under and on top of a Dutch oven, the effects of a conventional oven are attained. With a little ingenuity, any dish baked at home can also be prepared at the campground. For more ideas, try any of these Dutch oven cookbooks.
