Bruntmor 12 Quart Cast Iron Dutch Oven Cauldron Pot - Camping Cookware with Lid - Pre-Seasoned Heavy-Duty Potjie for Stews, Soups, Braising, and Frying Over Fire Pit Grill or Camp Stove - Black

It's a very well made cauldron and I'm sure as a result of its excellent craftsmanship it will last me more than a lifetime. This is something you take care of lovingly & hand it down to the next generation. The size is commendable; you could roast a whole turkey or make make soup for a large group. The cauldron legs are an especially cool feature to me because it allows for versatility. I can camp/glamp & still whip out a large meal, bake a pie, heat water, etc. You can bake, fry, roast; you can cook almost anything in it; most impressive! Another feature I found pleasing is the lid. The lid works like a regular, normal lid; the cool part is that it comes with a "hot lid fork", which is a device used to move the lid when cooking so you don't burn yourself. I'm also a historical reenactment actor & to use this iron pot as they did "back then" is a great, authentic way to teach. I'm really excited to do the first reenactment with my new cauldron!

I bought this witchy thing moons ago when I dreamt of autumn and it's finally cool enough for me to cook with it without dying of heat stroke. When I first got it, I felt around the inside and it felt a bit rough, which I was a little concerned about, so I waited until I had actually experience using it before I left a review. And it's fine! I didn't add any additional seasoning to the cauldron. I thought about doing it then eyeballed the clearances of my oven and decided not to try it. And I had not a single issue sautéing the veggies for my soup! Now, my soup is simmering away and the cauldron is doing great. Worth a mention is that the cauldron came, not only, with a lid but a great little grabber for the lid which you would absolutely want with a live fire cast iron cooking vessel. And in addition to that, it also came with a nice carrying case that fits cauldron, lid, and lid grabber very well. I bought this cauldron to use in my fireplace, but if I want to take it camping some day, it will be extremely easy to transport. In addition, the carrying case actually makes it easier to slide the cauldron and it's accessories into my cupboards. As for cleaning, I've washed it in my regular, white enameled sink and had no real issues as long as I'm careful to position the legs of the cauldron not to slip into the drain. It was actually easier than I thought it would be. TL;DR - I'm extremely satisfied with my cauldron. I'm extremely satisfied with the price. I would recommend this fine cooking vessel to anyone who would like to do some live fire stewin'

This cauldron seems to be of good quality, about on par with my old one that was stolen by my ex. I took a gamble because another reviewer said it didn't have the wording on it, and it didn't which is what I wanted, so I'm happy. It does have a "2" on either side as well as the lid, but that's standard for most cauldrons. One thing to note is that one of the legs appears to be welded on and ground pretty poorly on the inside with pits in the metal, but after seasoning it's hardly noticable and the pits seem to have filled in nicely. One thing I didn't realize is it actually comes with a pretty nice nylon carry bag, made of cordua with webbing handles that extend to the base of the bag. Bottom of bag has some sort of rigid wood disc, with a removable plastic disc included to prevent the legs from tearing up the bag. Also included is a very serviceable lid lifter, which I was planning on making but now I won't have to. Not nearly as cheap as my previous one, and for the price I had hoped it wouldn't have the aforementioned defect with the welded leg. However as I have stated previously it's flaws are easily covered and hardly noticable once seasoned, and the outside looks nice so I can't really complain. All in all I believe this one is roughly the same quality as my last one which sustained years of use, and I'm happy with my purchase, I just wish that for the price it didn't have the ugly grinding and weld marks, but it sits flat and is well balanced when hanging.

Was leery after reading some reviews and went back and forth for a while as I have received some pretty bad cast products in the past. This pot is more than usable it’s actually pretty nice and heavy duty. It arrived well boxed and in great shape. The factory seasoning was pretty good, maybe just slightly tacky on the outside but after a good scrub with a pretty harsh cleaning powder and copper pad I was surprised how well the seasoning was still there and a lil rub of lard and a buff to remove as much as I could I seasoned upside down on my outdoor burner. Let cool n repeated couple times and within 24 hours of receiving it was looking real good, no black residue some claimed to have experienced no sticky inside or out and a great shine. First use was five or six blocks of fresh lard and fried potatoes and then onion rings. After straining and refrigerating the lard was still beautiful creamy white. Seller was great…. An outstanding transaction and great lil pot. Will outlast me but wouldn’t hesitate to purchase if needed.

It is very heavy and looks like it will last. I love the dize

A well built pot and has held up really well,, I use it in my wood fire oven,,, baked beans, chicken gumbo, beef stew,, I have also used it on a tripod over an open fire while camping,, pot roast was amazing ,, it cooks so well,!!

This cauldron is the best thing since sliced bread! We took it camping and it performed beautifully. The heat was distributed evenly. Though you should season both the pot (and lid).

Very great quality for the price, Heavy cast iron
