About this item

  • YOUR GO-TO DUTCH OVEN: A flawless pairing of form and function that doesn't quit. The Lodge Dutch Oven not only makes your kitchen look good but is an enameled cast iron classic great for preparing and serving memorable meals. Broil, braise, bake or roast your favorite meals in the oven up to 500 Degree F.
  • WHAT IS PORCELAIN ENAMEL ON CAST IRON? It is glass that becomes bonded to the cast iron at high temperatures. A particulate of glass, called frit, is applied to the cast iron vessel and then baked at temperatures between 1200 and 1400° F. The glass frit melts and fuses to the cast iron, forming a bond. Porcelain enamel on cast iron is heat tolerant and impervious to water and other consumables.
  • EASY TO COOK AND CLEAN: The porcelain enameled interior has a smooth finish that minimizes sticking, promotes caramelization and resists staining. Although enameled cast iron is dishwasher safe, hand washing with warm soapy water and a nylon scrub brush is recommended to keep your Dutch Oven in tip top shape!
  • HEAT RETENTION: The cast iron vessel has superior heat distribution and retention, evenly heating throughout both the bottom and sidewalls. The tightly fitting lid seals in moisture for scrumptious pot roast, stews or a large batch of beans. Our heat retention also reduces the amount of energy needed for cooking.
  • FAMILY-OWNED. Lodge is more than just a business; it’s a family. The Lodge family founded the company in 1896, and they still own it today. From environmental responsibility to community development, their heads and hearts are rooted in America. Products made with non-toxic, PFOA & PTFE free material.

About Lodge Cast Iron

Founded in 1896, the Lodge family has been making high quality cookware and accessories for over a century. Lodge Cast Iron operates two foundries on the banks of the Tennessee River in the small town of South Pittsburg, Tennessee; a town Lodge is proud to call home. The company is built on family values, American history, and high quality cookware. All Lodge seasoned cast iron and carbon steel cookware is proudly made in the USA, meaning you’ll get craftsmanship that has been passed down through generations.

Cooking And Caring For Your Lodge Enameled Cast Iron

1. Allow cookware to cool.

2. Although dishwasher safe, hand washing with warm soapy water and a nylon Scrub Brush is recommended to preserve the cookware’s original appearance. Citrus juices and citrus-based cleaners (including some dishwasher detergents) should not be used, as they can dull the exterior gloss.

3. If necessary, use nylon pads or scrapers to remove food residue; metal pads or utensils will scratch or chip porcelain.

4. Slight stains can be removed by rubbing with dampened cloth and Lodge Enamel Cleaner or other ceramic cleaner according to directions on bottle.

5. Dry cookware thoroughly before storing. Do not stack cookware.

Love the color. I purchased the 6qt dutch oven and it is nice and heavy. Delivered with no nicks, scratches or chips. Cooks evenly and the lid fits correctly. It holds more than enough for my family of 4. The first meal I prepared was a stewed chicken. The chicken legs and thighs browned beautifully. Leaving all the good bits for a flavorful gravy. I also prepared a curry noodle dish in this pot and it performed beautifully. It is currently my go to for just about everything now. I would definitely purchase another one.

    Reviewed in the United States on February 1, 2025
    Color: IndigoVerified Purchase
    I was looking at a much more expensive dutch oven to bake bread and this Lodge pot came up as an alternative. The price could not be beat and the size is perfect for bread, roasts, whole chicken, you name it. Plus after plating the meat and veggies you can put the pan directly onto a stove top to whip up gravy for truly a one pot meal. I purchased the 6 quart and it is HEAVY. I'm 70 years old and wouldn't feel safe picking up anything heavier from the oven, especially when full of meat and vegetables. It's plenty big enough for a big loaf of sourdough bread. If you're looking for a versatile dutch oven at a great price this is the one!

    This review is for the Lodge 6 Quart Enameled Cast Iron Dutch Oven with Lid – Dual Handles – Oven Safe up to 500°.

    THIS IS AN UPDATE TO MY INITIAL IMPRESSIONS REVIEW BELOW

    I have been using this Lodge enameled cast iron Dutch oven for eight months now. I have made many dishes with it, including pot roast, birria, Hungarian goulash, and chili. All came out perfect and delicious. Best of all, it still looks brand new. No staining and not a hint of rust.

    I'm extremely pleased. So much so that I have upped this review from four stars to five stars

    Highly Recommended.

    (Initial Review Below)

    This is an "initial impressions" review based on my first use of this item. I plan to update this review in a few months after more experience using this item.

    First, as a basis for comparison, I should note that I own several pieces of French-made enameled cast iron cookware from Staub, Le Creuset and Made In, as well as some Chinese-made pieces from lesser known brands. This includes three enameled cast iron Dutch ovens in smaller sizes from Staub and Le Creuset. I bought the oldest one of these maybe 25 years ago, and it still looks and works like brand new.

    I also recently purchased, used, reviewed - and returned - a highly-rated Chinese-made 6 quart enameled cast iron Dutch oven from another manufacturer, which sells here at Amazon for a similar price to this one. That one was absolutely gorgeous out of the box. But it rusted and stained like crazy with ONE use. Ridiculous. Thus, I returned it.

    This one looked very nice out of the box, but not as "pretty" as the one I returned. The enamel seems a bit thin - especially as compared to my French-made Staub and Le Creuset enameled cast iron Dutch ovens. So I have some concerns about long term durability. On the other hand, a similar-capacity French-made enameled cast iron Dutch oven from Staub or Le Creuset would have cost at least three times as much as this Chinese-made item from Lodge. And Lodge is an old, established, company with a hard-earned and well-deserved reputation for quality value-priced cookware.

    All that notwithstanding, in its first use the performance of this Dutch oven was outstanding! I slow-cooked a pot of chili with beans and sun-dried tomatoes for several hours on the stove top and it turned out perfect and delicious. The thermal capacity of this beast is truly impressive.

    Meanwhile, not a speck of rust . . . which is as it should be. Cleanup was not exactly a breeze, but it wasn't really very hard either. In the end, it looked like it had never been used. Hours cooking a full pot of chili with tomatoes presents quite a challenge to an enameled cast iron Dutch oven - especially one with a white or cream colored interior. However this one stood up to that challenge and met it.

    Anyway, so far I am very pleased with this Lodge enameled cast iron Dutch oven. Since this is only an initial impression, and I do have some concerns about the durability of the enamel, at this point I'm only giving it four stars. However I plan to come back here later this year after having used it more extensively and update this review. At that point, I might upgrade it to five stars.

    But . . . so far, so good!

    I've been using this for a few years and I can't imagine a time when it wasn't a go-to cooking tool. I use it for all kinds of recipes, and it works as a skillet with high walls, as well as a pot for soups or pasta dishes that require lots of movement within the pan. I've also used it for braising in the oven. Along with my cast-iron skillet, this has become one of my most versatile kitchen tools. I've also given this as a gift before, as the bright red finish gives it as much aesthetic appeal as it has utility.

    The only critique I have is that there are some spots along the rim where the enamel is chipping and cracking. But they are only minor and as long as they don't get worse or lead to rust on the cast iron, it won't be a concern.

    Everything is just amazing in it. Homemade bread is on a totally new level. Savoury food like roast is awesome. Wish i would have bought it sooner.

    Yeah, it is heavy because it is made of iron, but this thing became the MVP in my kitchen! Awesome!

    Product is as described. I have been using it non stop for cooking and baking bread. Great heat distribution and easy enough to clean if you follow directions.

    No blemishes or cracks like a few others have reported.

    It is a great product and I would recommend it to anyone.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Great enamled dutch oven!

    Color: BlueVerified Purchase
    I purchased the 6qt enameled dutch oven in Caribbean Blue and am extremely happy with it. I have used it on the stove top and in the oven. This is the first enameled dutch oven that I have owned but I do own several other cast iron dutch ovens, mainly for camping and bread.

    Pros:
    looks great - the blue is very similar to the Le Creuset that I have
    good size for family
    off-white interior makes it easy to see what you are cooking
    retains heat very well
    cleans up easily
    great value for the money!
    heavy because it is cast iron, but not too heavy
    good fitting lid
    can handle high temperatures
    nice big handles
    good heat distribution

    Cons:
    I would have liked a less round bottom to increase cooking surface, but this really isn't a big problem.

    If you want a good sized, attractive enameled dutch oven and don't want to pay a premium price for a Le Creuset or a Staub, I can heartily recommend this Lodge!
