Seasoning 10" & 14" Lodge Camp Dutch Ovens
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 1 май 2021
- I recently bought a used Lodge 10" camp dutch oven when traveling through Arkansas. This oven appeared to be never used but still was a bit rusty on the outside. I cleaning it up by hand using some scotch bright abrasives then do a re-season on it, also with a new Lodge 14" camp dutch oven. Even when I buy new cast iron I still like to give the iron one good coating with seasoning.
I have been using the Crisbee Creamproducts for my cast iron seasoning and conditioning and it works excellent! Check out my Amazon store for product info amzn.to/2QVEUa4
A trick an old submariner taught was to always check something for heat with the back of your hand. They do it that way so that if it is too hot and you get a burn you can still work if needed. Good video Adam and keep up the great work!
I guess it's kind of off topic but do anyone know of a good site to stream new movies online ?
@Bradley Lucca I use flixzone. You can find it on google =)
To me, there is a great satisfaction in having your cast iron seasoned so well, hardly anything sticks to it. Thanks for the info, Adam
The Crisbee looks like good stuff, thanks for sharing. Sunflower oil and beeswax. I've used flaxseed oil in the past, but it looks like the beeswax makes the Crisbee spread out smoother. Will definitely pick some up.
Yea I have found it to be a good product that’s affordable, made in USA and is still a small business.
They all turned out beautiful! Thanks for sharing!
Thank you for the last four videos, your cakes look so good Adam , Abby is a lucky Girl 😉 love your camp site where you got an upgrade . 🥰👏👏👏👍🇬🇧🍺🍺
Thanks for sharing with us Adam, great job ! Your back porch is awesome. Thanks for sharing with us, Fred.
Your channel is on the of my fav
This method of seasoning cast iron is excellent. I use grapeseed oil and I keep a dedicated cotton towel in a ziplock. Whenever I use a pan I just brush clean under hot water and return to heat and a few drops of the oil. That chicken sitter looks like a cool piece.
Adam you should get it cast in cast iron build your own mold and cast it. Would make for a cool video. I wonder if the place you used old brake rotors might be interested in doing a few. Keep up the video's buddy!
Would like that yes, I’m even coming up with some ideas for other things besides just a pan. Cookware is plentiful but there’s a few things that are not that I’d love to see come to the market.
@@AbomAdventures i was talking about casting more of the pepsi grill but using cast iron, maybe the hinge part would hold up better, and then add your logo or shop's logo it
In spanish we call that chicken as pollo sentado or pollo violado, just add romero and garlic to the beer and it will be magic. You can add apple vinegar, water and sugar to a spray bottle and spray the chicken every 20 or 30 minutes.
I recently picked up one of those Pepsi grills. It is NOS. Can't wait to try it out.
Congratulations on your wedding anniversary
Good thing you have a 2500 your gonna need it to haul the cast iron to cook with lol love the videos keep them coming
Plenty of payload still left for it to haul 😎
Nice!! Great method... :-)
Found a new iron cookware mfg today; Borough Furnace. A small co. in NY making seasoned and enameled products. I prefer the older cookware but they seem to make a nice product. I keep thinking you need an Abom79 edition...
Great job,,another use for my Kamato Joe,,lol
A quick search online says Balcar was a USA company in Carrolton. It appears to have gone out of business around 2000. I found one on Ebay for around $65 that appears to be in similar condition. I am sure Pepsi collectors would pay more as they are no longer available new.
Not sure if you noticed, but it looks like they tried to make the Pepsi grill look like an old bottle cap. The lid has 10 sides while the body is round. I wish companies still made quality promo stuff like that unit. Most promo stuff is cheap china stuff. Nice find, I hope you still have it. I would be tempted to paint the cast Pepsi logo portion and maybe paint some shading to the side of the lid and make it look like a bottle cap.
We all like a smooth bottom indeed.
Good stuff!!
Yes IMO those Lodge pans really benefit from a couple passes with a sander on the inside before seasoning (not a mirror finish, just take down the peaks a bit).
It bothers some folks that many lodge pans aren’t smooth in the bottom. Honestly for me it’s not a big deal. Once the pot is seasoned properly it works just as well as any other. Even smooth bottom pans will stick if the conditions are right. I think it’s more important to build up many layers of seasoning.
@@AbomAdventures A half dozen cooks of a load of bacon will fill in the rough. Especially if you cook crispy bacon. Also, fried potatoes tend to fill in well sooner than most other types of foods.
I ruined a good Lodge skillet grinding the bottom smooth. For some reason it never did take a good seasoning after that. Guess I'll try again soon.
Love cast iron cookware. Works great.
Crisbee Cream is Non-GMO Bees Wax & Sunflower Oil. Thin layer bake & let cool, over & over. Case Iron is best safe cookware.
Dating lodge cast iron is fairly easy. Anything that says lodge is after 1980 ish, if say made in usa 60s to 70s, if it list the # on the bottom and co ( camp oven) under it's 50s just the # late 40s.
Morning Adam, my wife was able to secure 3 cast iron skillets from her great grandmother on Saturday. One was an 8 and the other two are 10’s. One of the 10’s came from the grandmother of my wife’s grandmother. I’m assuming it must date to the mid-1800’s. No makers mark or numbers. I had to use a wire brush on my grinder to get all the rust off of them. I seasoned them last night on the grill. This morning I took them off and one of them looks to have a few runs. Question: do they need an automatic 2nd seasoning since I had to take it down to bare iron? Also, do I need to remove the runs on the one pan and re-season?
I would recommend to season them 4 times at minimum after they are cleaned like that, especially if you have bare metal spots. Just take your time, do it once a day. Once they have baked an hour at 400, shut it down and let them cook naturally. The next day, do it again. It’ll get better and better. Once you season them, cook with some high fatty foods the first few times, like bacon, or ground beef.
Next job - Degreasing concrete. 😀
I wonder how many quarts the 10 inch is? Too bad you never stated that information.
10 inch is 4 quarts
Made in Texas it should have Dr Pepper logo cast in, not Pepsi. Oh well. Nice find anyhow.
We’d much prefer DP if we could choose
@@AbomAdventures So would *I*! BTW do you plan on fixing that "patch" weld? Maybe some Silfoss aluminum braze or similar? Crappy welds/brazing just bugs me whenever I see it.
Please cook a chicken on the Emeril cooker as a video
I’ll definitely share that one. Seems like a good way to cook a chicken.
Can you squeeze the seasoning cream and eat it?
Sure you can, not that I’d try it. Let us know what you think.
Thank you for your response, my pa said if you can't eat it don't season with it, as kent rollins suggest as well, be safe in the seasoning you use, thank you
Do you have to do that process after you cook each time?
After each cook just clean out the pan good with hot water and a scrub brush and then apply your choice of seasoning. Either something like the Crisbee, vegetable shortening, or oil. Coat it and wipe it clean and you’re ready for the next cook.
@@AbomAdventures Thank you! I've wanted to learn Dutch oven cooking for quite some time, but am rather intimidated by it. 😊
@@wvcamper Never use soap to clean cast iron. Best practice is to use them, keep them warm once finished using them, enjoy the meal and when doing the dishes, get the hot water going in the sink, empty the pans etc.then run a hot only stream of water over them and finish cleaning with only a sponge, dish towel or brush then wipe dry with a cloth towel and a tad of oil to finish. Keeping them warm before washing allows most of the stuff to rinse out much easier while the hot hot water will move out most of any left over pieces. If some stuff sticks, use warm water and a brush after the hot or one of those blue sponges with the non scratch pad on the one side.
@@Garth2011 Thank you for the information!
If you do get some food stuck and hard to remove, a good technique is to put some water in it and boil it. While boiling I use a wooden spatula to scrape the stuff food off. As Garth said, don’t use soap, why I mentioned hot water and a scrub brush above.
care to give info on your watch?
It’s a Luminox
Hi Adam,
Don't know if you already have one (didn't notice any during the video), but do you have a fire extinguisher there on the BBQ porch? Nice to have one handy just in case. You and Abby stay safe.
I have one right inside the door in the shop, also by same door is my 100’ water hose.
🙏🏻🙏🏻👍👍👏🏻👏🏻👋👋
I know people will strip off a brand-new Lodge dutch oven or Skillet and take it down to bare metal and start all over on it
Is that Emeril, as in the chef, maybe?
Yes it’s his brand of cast iron cookware.
I have about 6 number lodge 14’s for sale
ummmm Bacon........
