## Description

desertcart.com Lodge Color is one of the newest lines from this respected American cast-iron cookware company. Traditionally shaped and more affordable than some European brands, Lodge Color enameled cast-iron is just as durable, requires no seasoning, and attractively serves at the table. Lodge infuses this 6-quart Dutch oven with two coats of hard-as-nails porcelain enamel, in a choice of several bright colors that are gradated (dark to light) on the exterior, and which are nicely set off by a cream interior. Embellished with concentric circles and a black knob, the lid, which also fits the Lodge Color 11-inch skillet, is oven-safe to 400 degrees F, so you can start a stew or casserole on the stovetop and finish by baking it in the oven. The 6-quart Dutch oven measures 10-3/4 inches in diameter by 4-1/2 inches deep. Lodge enameled cast iron makes a smart choice due to its versatility--you can marinate raw meats in it, since it won't absorb odors or flavors, and you can braise, saute, simmer, and bake in it as well. Made in China to Lodge's meticulous specifications, each cookware item is first clad in matte black enamel before the color is added. The black rim that shows on the oven is actually the scratch-resistant matte enamel, not the raw cast iron. Though the Dutch oven is dishwasher-safe, washing by hand is recommended to best preserve the glossy finish. Look also for the pricier Lodge Enamel series, with its unique L-shaped lid knob, in a different set of colors and sizes to suit any kitchen. All Lodge enameled ware is covered by a lifetime warranty against defects. --Ann Bieri Product Description The Essential Enamel Cast Iron Dutch Oven is a true kitchen essential, designed for both everyday meals and special occasions. This heavy-duty, multipurpose cooking pot is perfect for braising, roasting, baking, and simmering your favorite recipes. With its easy-grip, dual handles, this enameled Dutch oven makes moving from the stovetop to the oven or table a breeze, while the cook and serve design ensures effortless transitions from preparation to presentation. Constructed from durable cast iron and finished with an enamel coating, this Dutch oven is both stain-resistant and non-toxic. The porcelain enamel surface stands up to acidic ingredients and will not react with your food, so you can marinate, cook, refrigerate, and serve all in one versatile cookware piece. The Lodge enameled Dutch oven supports even heat distribution and superior heat retention, ensuring that your food cooks evenly throughout the bottom and sidewalls.

Review: Bargain alternative - This is a great and bargain version of my usual Dutch oven choice, Le Creuset. Looks great, so far no complaints about function. Only question was I thought Lodge was a USA made product but the box said Vietnam?
Review: You need this! - Hands down, Lodge is the finest in Dutch Oven cookware. I made Cheeseburger Soup in one pot! Start to finish. It cooked evenly, completely, and looked so nice on my stovetop. I purchased it in STORM BLUE for contrast to my very white kitchen. But really, you can’t go wrong with Lodge. Cleanup was a breeze because nothing burned or got stuck to the bottom. I did a little babysitting the stove, but this was my maiden, breaking it in adventure! Oh there was some ground beef residue on the bottom while browning it, but with hot soapy water and a soft scrubby, it melted away with no soaking, hard scrubbing, or cursing. Be prepared though as the cookware is quite heavy. But that’s the Lodge quality shining through. The inside bottom is slightly curved which helps with cooking a variety of dishes like my soup. I’m thrilled with my first Dutch Oven purchase. If you enjoy cooking and desire stovetop or oven cooking options from a single pot, get a Dutch Oven!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is it made in the USA**
A: Yes, they are made overseas, not in the USA. I've had my pan for 7 years now...and it's used weekly, and more often in the winter months. I was a bit disappointed when it came and I realized it wasn't made in the USA but decided to give it a chance. After 7 years of hard use I can honestly say it's the best pot I have ever owned! It's discolored a bit, not surprising with the amount of use it gets and all the soups stews and roasts I make in it throughout each year. But that hasn't affected the pot at all. It is just a good as it was when I first bought it. I'm going to try the 1 cup baking soda and 4 cups water trick  (boil 5 min let sit with the lid on for 2 hours) that I read about in one of the other questions to see if it will return to it's original beige coloring, but even if it doesn't, it's still going to be my "go to" pot for everything I can use a dutch oven for :-) I highly recommend this pot, even though it's not made in the USA!

**Q: Flat bottom suitable for glass top range?????**
A: It's too heavy and will scratch it. It's a shame that glass top ranges even exist. They don't conduct heat well, hold on to heat far too long after it is turned off, and of course, you need perfectly flat cookware which is usually the crappy teflon stuff rather than cast iron and stainless. The only advantage of them is that they are really easy to clean.

**Q: One person mentioned that you shouldn't heat when empty, but I want to bake bread, and it needs to be hot first. Will this damage it?**
A: Apparently artisan bread bakers are heating it empty without problem, but Lodge says fill it halfway with water, preheat, then dump the water out before baking - I don't know it that works for all, but it gets it to 212F (100C) and if you need a higher temp, perhaps do that first then dump the water out to minimize the time it's been empty before it reaches your temp.Google/search "lodge dutch oven bake bread" and look for the link to "Baking Bread in a Dutch Oven" at the artisanbreadinfive site.  The points I mention above are in the comments.

**Q: Is this seasoned?**
A: The interior of the pot is ceramic.   It's not possible to season it.  Seasoning is only for cast iron that is not covered with ceramic.  The only thing you must pay attention to is: wash it well.  And don't chip it --- which is not easily done.  OK?

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Dutch Oven!
*by A***N on January 6, 2026*

I LOVE, Love, love this Dutch Oven. I love the color that I got and I love the roundness of the bottom part which makes it easier to sauté. The weight is manageable and the handles are perfect! The price is great too!! I never write reviews but felt this deserved one.
