can you put a dutch oven on it?

Nope. It's not sturdy enough for Dutch oven. Otherwise, I love it for grilling.
1624822
Yes. I have already done so. We did brace it towards the bottom with rocks. I have two and use them all the time with my dutch ovens.

We havent tried but husband says "probably". Cooks burgers, steaks, hot dogs & bacon. They loved it camping.

I wouldn't put that much weight on it. Just the weight of the cast iron would make it bow over I think.

You definitely can. It is a stainless steel so it should not be a problem. However, make sure you set it on a medium flame because the handles can sometimes go bad with continuous exposure to high heat. But the body of the cooker itself is of a very good quality steel and can be used as pan for sautéing, as pressure cooker and of course for deep frying too.

I'm sorry Melissa, I don't know the answer to that question. I called them and they were very helpful, but weren't even positive about my Dutch oven.Don

I don't see why not, but I wouldn't put anything on top of this oven. The top can get pretty hot.

If it is not concave then how can they call it a Dutch oven? The whole ideal of a dutch oven is so you can piles coals on it when cooking outdoors and use it as an "oven" to cook bread & biscuits among other things you don't want to use direct heat on. This is just a cast iron stew pot.

I don't think so. The setting of it won't allow you to place it on the stove directly.

It a bit big for the oven (you will have to take out a rack). But I don't why you could not put it in the oven.

I think so. It's a universal lid so it should fit most pots and pans, but I am not familiar with the Dutch oven.

I don't know what the highest temp it can handle but since this type of Dutch oven is used over an open fire 500F should be no problem. In fact it may even improve the seasoning.

I usually use my cast iron skillet, but I am sure it would be okay in the dutch oven too...

I don't see why not... I assume that you've got induction hobs in that "glass" cooktop and all they require is that the pot is magnetic and cast iron is. Note, you can heat things very fast with an induction hob so don't overdo it and ruin your dutch oven.

Technically no. The directions say to put it over heat no higher than "medium," so that probably limits all but the smallest amount of charcoal. Having said that, I've put a non-enameled Dutch oven on a rather high grill and it did not crack.

I have the 'regular' 5 quart Lodge dutch oven, but I can easily see how this would be much better. Currently I take the dutch oven out of a 500 degree oven and drop the dough into it. Generally, I miss 'dead center' and some of the dough lands against the side and turns black during baking. With this, the whole process could be done with the oven 'upside down'. Sliding the dough onto the lid, it should be a cinch to get it centered every time.

Yes. I recommend using a light weight dutch oven that will fit within the interior dimensions.

I'm sure that if the dutch oven is large enough to hold the pan, then you could set the pan inside the dutch oven and bake the bread in it. Preheat the oven first. This will make the crust very crispy, also.

Yes u can- however it does take quite a while for the oven to heat up- I was hoping to replace my counter top toaster oven with this- but it takes twice as long because of this.

You probably could. I'd use some cooking spray on it first. It was a gift to my son and he hasn't tried it yet.
