How to Cook With a Camp Chef Ultimate Dutch Oven

The Camp Chef Ultimate Dutch Oven resembles a cross between a cast iron pot and a tube cake pan. The central post in the pot transmits heat to the middle of the food, greatly reducing cooking times when compared to typical Dutch oven recipes. Racks on the inside of the pot let you cook several foods at once. Like traditional Dutch ovens, the Ultimate Dutch Oven performs best in outdoor cooking applications, such as when camping or grilling. Be sure to watch your food while it cooks due to the shortened cooking time. Does this Spark an idea?

Instructions

    • 1

      Season your Ultimate Dutch Oven if you have never used it before. Skip this for a previously used Ultimate Dutch oven.

    • 2

      Set a propane stove over medium flame or use medium hot flame with charcoals.

    • 3

      Place the lid of the Dutch oven upside down on the flame or charcoals and brown the meat in the lid. Preheat the lid to hasten cooking even if you do not use it to brown meat before cooking.

    • 4

      Set the bottom rack into the oven, and optionally pour water in to just below the rack to steam the food.

    • 5

      Add browned meat or large vegetables onto the bottom rack. Set the top rack into the oven and lay on it smaller vegetables or breads if cooking.

    • 6

      Cover the Ultimate Dutch Oven with the lid and place the pot onto the propane stove or set it directly into smoldering charcoals. Place a single layer of charcoal briquettes on top of the lid for faster, more even cooking.

    • 7

      Cook the food according to your recipe, while using a meat thermometer.

    • 8

      Remove the food from the Ultimate Dutch Oven and clean with water only while the oven still retains heat to prevent stuck-on food.
