All-Clad Cast Aluminum 5-1/2-Quart Dutch Oven with Two Oven Mitts
I purchased the Dutch Oven for packing, the objective was to use it on coals and on a wood camp stove. There were several concerns about durability, and if a light pot would be adequate for backing on coals. My first observation was that the dutch oven is light enough for backpacking and definately no problem in mule or llama panniers.
Eagerly, I tested it with charcoal on the patio for baking bread. The lid is rounded with a lip, it held charcoal better than I expected, and it is easy for ashes to spill into the food. It baked the bread perfectly, it was brown on top, cooked through out, and did not stick, and with care no ashes fell onto the bread.
I am very happy with this Dutch Oven, and look forward to many camp meals that will be cooked in it.
