Dutch Oven

During the recent trip to Baja we cooked exclusively with a dutch oven. These are wonderful devices. If you do not have one, buy one now. You never know when it might come in handy. They are the perfect camping companion as long as you do not have to carry them. We had the mighty Range Rover.

You can cook anything in them from Crepes Suzette to Coq au Vin.

Here is a culinary record of the trip.
