    My first thanksgiving dinner, the mashed potatoes were runny and the gravy too thick, so my new husband scooped the gravy and poured potatoes on top and told me how creative I was. ❤

    I like the idea of using a small round rack inside the Dutch oven to set a pie pan on.
    I also found balancing the coals on the bottom and on the lid depends on the type of food being baked or cooked.
    The amount of coals in either place is the science of it all. For example when baking more coals go on top 3:1 ratio.
    When roasting the ratio is more like 1:1.
    Simmering and stewing 4:1 with more on the bottom.
    Lastly, frying and boiling have all the heat on the bottom.
    Charcoal is a simple way of regulating the temperature on both the upper and lower levels. Opinions vary but many believe one briquette generates 40 degrees of heat.
    A tripod isn’t really necessary for baking.
    I would consider partially prebaking the pie crust first.
    I find boiling water after using the oven is a great way to clean it and add seasoning once clean and dry to keep it from rusting.

    Don’t cook over an open fire like that take some coals out put them on the ground and then put the Dutch oven on top of the coals and then put some coals on top of the Dutch oven. Do not cook over an open fire like that and you’ll be able to control it better, the way you did. It is good for soups and stews and stuff you’re gonna fry better luck next time…. lol happy Thanksgiving.

    • @deborahb.3736
      @deborahb.3736 2 месяца назад +6

      yes... totally.
      3 to 1 ratio.. bottom to top.
      new coals can be added as they burn out or more heat needed.
      and for more dense things like bread etc..
      dig a hole that the oven will easily fit into so that the heat is forced around the sides of the oven.

    • @Maria-yf8fp

    I remember one Thanksgiving we had 3 turkeys. The first one shattered my moms the oven door, second one my brother and my stepdad deep fried it way to long burnt it to a crisp and the third one my sister in law cooked at her house brought over it smells delicious but inside was frozen solid so brought over my ham that I was cooking for a dinner party the next night. Everything was just fine and a great memory to have.

    Hello Emi and Kelly, love watching your videos. Just a thought for your Dutch oven cooking days.
    Try to buy a round cake cooling rack for the size of your Dutch oven to place in the bottom when you are cooking and it should help to stop the bottom burning of your cocking. Don't give up you will crack it right.
    Happy Thanksgiving to you and everyone in Canada. Love, hugs and prayers. 💞 🫂 🙏
