Lodge has a new line of ceramic dutch ovens made in the USA. They are pricey but I am glad they are giving us options. Thank you
Yes, I have actually spoken with Lodge about these new Dutch ovens. I am concerned about the very high cost, but I agree, I’m thankful we have options. Thanks for commenting👍🏽
I decided on the Lodge 5qt double dutch oven for now to bake some bread. I will wait for the new ceramics to go on sale
Gee's, 7.5 qt $350! It must be a terribly complex and labor intensive process to enamel cast iron to justify that price? I too try to support made in USA products, but that seems a bit ridiculous!
Edit: After much research about there new USA made enamel and everything they went through to bring it to market, it honestly was truly inspiring and there price point is now fully understandable. Lodge had to literally build from the ground up an all new dedicated factory just to pull this off. And I'm proud to say I now own a fully made in USA enamel dutch oven!
I got an email a few weeks ago from Lodge with a 20% off promotion . I ended up buying the American enamel. Very happy with my new dutch oven.@@allenpost3616
@@allenpost3616 Thank-you for this information! I am grateful to know.
Lodge enameled cast iron is now made in the USA. in Tennessee. there is a video that Lodge put out on their youtube channel talking about it .
Yep , I watched the same video and they talked about how they were enameling in house and if I remember right, it even showed the area where that was being done.
I looked on their website and it is still in their listings as of about a week ago they are still being made in China. You just have to scroll down the listing description.
I love my lodge Dutch oven, skillets, wok, griddle, etc. I do not have a porcelain coated one, but several regular ones in multiple sizes. We use the Dutch oven mostly when cooking on an open fire outside. I do have my grandfather’s skillet and treasure it.
Oh! I love using cast iron over an outdoor fire. Seems the only choice. 🤩 So good to hear you have so many heritage cast iron pieces. 👏🏽😍
I recently purchased a lodge enameled cast iron dutch oven 6 qt..for $70. I find the price very reasonable for a product produced in the United States at its new US plant.btw..the dutch oven comes with 4 rubber guards
Thank you Katie for sharing this. I have several cast iron skillets but not the enamel Dutch oven. I’ve seen them and they are nice. ❤️
Thank you for another great video Miss Katie.
Thanks for visiting. ❣️
I have one never used it. Glad you’re sharing.
😍
Looks a lovely pot for cooking, I never realized those were called Dutch ovens. Thanks for sharing review, Katie.
These are so useful.
I have several Le Creuset Dutch Ovens , they are definately an investment but will last several generations! That being said I own several lodge cast iron pieces as well ! I love my lodge cast iron Dutch Oven for cooking outdoors!
An FYI , you can use soft scrub on the inside of enameled pans to remove any stains, also it’s not recommended to use stainless steel utensils, there is a seal around the edge and the stainless steel utensils will break the seal!
Great video !
I have a Lodge just like this one. I love it.
So useful!
I have the exact same Dutch Oven, except mine is a 7 quart. Red is my favorite color also. I love mine. ❤❤
Awesome! They are so versatile!
I have 3 enameled cast iron dutch ovens. I have never store the lid on the pan. In fact, I don not store any lids on any pans. That way there is air circulation, and I know the pans will be dry. If a lid fits tightly, heat and cool can cause condensation and the pan can get wet inside. I store my lids in a homemade lid rack.
A homemade rack sounds great to me😃
My daughter bought one for my mom -it's so heavy, I'm not able to lift it up without hurting my wrists. My mom keeps on insisting with it. 😊

I have a gray Crofton that has served me well. I appreciate your honesty and integrity. We try as well to support USA businesses and find it hard and often out of our budget. But I agree, try the best you can with what you have!
👍🏽👍🏽❤️
I've had a 3qrt enamel MSE(Martha Stewart Essentials) dutch oven I got from KMart back in the day. I haven't used it much and still looks newish and I really need to use it more.
I do love an enameled pot👍🏽👍🏽
Katie I have a few Dutch ovens. Some Lodge and some others. I also have a lot of other cast iron cookware. I just love cast iron cooking !!!
Me too, my friend! Up here in Ohio I see a lot of Wagner cast iron at thrift stores. I believe that is/was an Ohio company.
I was about to buy the 6.5 Qt Lodge, i figured I would see what others thought. I found this video, I found your channel, and I'm buying the Lodge.
Greetings from New Lebanon, Ohio.
Glad I could help!
I see you are a vet. Thank-you for your service to our country. We see you!! 🫡
I finally bought a Dutch oven only to figure out mine can’t be used in the oven. I didn’t know Lodge makes their own. I’ll look into that one. Thank you
Why could it not be used in the oven, Naomi? Yes, I do love Lodge products. You can find many Lodge products using my Lehman’s link under this video. 🤩
Just an observation, but as a long, long time Michigan Wolverines fan, I absolutely love your counter top!!! Lol
Hello and thanks for watching. As far as sports teams, would you believe I know absolutely nothing about sports? I have never watched a pro ballgame in person or on TV. (My kids' little league doesn't count. 😂) I am so far removed from sports that I didn't realize I was sitting next to a pro player on an airplane back in the 90s. All I knew is that I didn't know how to pronounce the FAVRE on the back of his shirt. When we stepped off the plane, I was told who had been sitting beside me and who had tried his hardest to discuss football. I just thought he was a weirdo and didn't know why he had that big gaudy ring on his hefty hand. LOL
As it turns out your thought was correct
😂well, actually he was trying to be kind and talkative to my young son I had with me. It was a 4am flight out of Cincy and I wasn’t in the mood for conversation. 😂
Interesting how your pamphlet said made in China. I had heard that they were also made in Vietnam. I just bought one (from Fred Meyer) to replace one we damaged and my pamphlet had the same section about where it's made and it says Vietnam. I just checked the box and it also says Vietnam. Mine came with 4 rubber spacers, but a smaller 4qt I bought 2 years ago came with 6. The 4qt bakes a loaf of bread every week and looks like it's new.
Lodge is still and American company. I love Lodge.
I agree and yes it is. Sorry that no one in US will do enamel coating on cast iron. There are so many markets that US companies could tap into rather than resorting to overseas. I love Lodge, too❤️
I have 3 dutch ovens, vintage cast, no enamel, I'm really not sure if they're lodge, they just have numbers on the bottom. Got them at flea markets. One is my fryer which is always on my stove. I've wanted an enamel, I just can't ever force myself to pay that price when I already have 3 🤣
Would it be a big difference?
Thank you Katie for another great vid
That is great that you already have many cast iron pieces, as do I. To answer your question, I do feel like enamel is a game-changer, though. Even when I was using my Aldi find, Crofton, there was such a difference from non-enameled cast iron. You can cook acidic foods easier, in my opinion. Clean-up seems to be easier. It is more non-stick (although I am aware that a well-seasoned cast iron is and should be non-stick). I would highly recommend you find some sort of enameled cast iron...whatever you can afford. I know they are expensive (the good ones like this one) and that is why I am so thankful to Lehman's for sharing this with me. I *know* they are expensive, but yes, I do reach for my enamel lined most every time. I mostly just fry in my non-enamel Dutch oven.
@@HeritageWaysKatie maybe I'll get one from Santa 🤣 I cook about 90% in cast, I'm not a big fan of Teflon non stick 🤢
Thank you
@@HeritageWaysKatie The same Dutch Oven at Amazon is much cheaper.
@@gardengrowinmawmaw8642 Thanks for sharing. I don't support Amazon but this might help some folks.
I went with Lodge. Knew it was enameled in China, but it's still a USA brand. Whatta ya gonna do? Ther are no big screen TV panels made in the USA. I'm in NJ happily keeping Tennessee people at work.🇺🇲🇺🇸
Hello and thanks for the update. I tell ya what, it is hard as heck to buy *completely* made in USA. Try as I might, I buy as local as possible. We do the best we can, don't we?
We have enjoyed our travels to NJ. We have spent time in the western part of the state where friends live. Were introduced to the Taylor roll (did I remember that name right??) at a diner. We LOVE your diners!
Thanks for the visit and comments.
❤️🏡❤️katie
You can get a cast enamel lodge pot made in the USA but it cost $300.00
You have to make a decision, do you want to save up and pay USA workers decent money or do you want to pay Chinese prices and risk led poison. The middle ground and what I did…. I returned it and bought the one with no enamel.
Can you cook with it on top of the stove
You sure can! I have done so four times just this week. Make soup, fry chicken, stew a hen, anything you would use a stock pot for. 😍
I was looking at lodge enameled and saw this was shown in their product page. You just had to scroll down.
I wanted lodge but reviews say it rusts on top around the rim
All brands of this type product do that if not dried after washing.
I bought my 3 daughters one years ago. Never bought one for myself. There out of sight price wise now. For me anyway.
I agree. I am thankful for this Lehman’s gift.
Lodge just started making them in usa in 2023. You may have bought a wharehouse older model made before that
They actually started selling their made in US line after I acquired this one. The US made one is very expensive.
@@HeritageWaysKatie That's the trade-off for paying workers more than just a bowl of rice every day.
Enamel cast iron
I'm almost sure that Crofton eDO you had for 5yrs was also made in China.
Lodge at the moment sells both china made and usa made eDO's. But yeah non china enamel ware is pricey
Oh, I am sure that Crofton was made overseas🙃
I made same mistake. I saw the Lodge name and stupidly thought I was buying an American product. I used it as a target at my gun range and I will never buy from Lodge again.
You won't buy from Lodge because _you_ didn't look to see where a product was made? Meanwhile, Lodge has USA made enameled cast iron but of course, you're not going to buy it because of the mistake you made. Furthermore, if you weren't happy with where it was made, you could have just returned it for a refund and lost nothing.
I swear, we need to stop putting warning labels on things, to fix the gene pool. Every product sold in the US since 1969 has been required to state the nation of origin on the product or the packaging. If you choose not to read a label, that's on you.
@TheCharleseye wait, what??
I simply don't want to buy anything made in China at this time. Even though the product looks good....
I completely and absolutely understand. I have tried my best to not buy “made in China” for over 22 years. So so happy to see others now on board.
What is the reason that you are so against Chinese products? The Chinese company manufactures the product based on the specifications provided by Lodge. The qaulify should be guaranteed in the specifications. And Lodge is still making money for selling them.
It is purely a personal decision. I prefer to support products made in the USA whenever I can. In my experience, the quality is better and more consistent. I would never want to dictate what others prefer though, so if you have a different opinion, that's ok! Blessings. ❤️🏠❤️
Buy things were you live! It makes sense!
Just say NO! Buy the stuff with no enamel…. That’s totally made in USA 🇺🇸
Exactly, I'm in the market for a dutch oven, and I keep coming back to the Lodge (not enameled) because of NOT being made in Communist China. America gives them enough money as it is, sadly!!!
The one from Walmart is different
Oh, it is? I haven't been to WalMart since winter 2019 so I don't know what they sell these days.
Nope...
I just, this morning, baked a loaf of sourdough bread in my new Walmart Lodge enameled dutch oven, and it turned out beautifully! I do appreciate Heritage Home for offering different options for those who might not afford the higher price points. Thank you!
My experience is Nothing in China id fired at the appropriate temperature so the enamel leeches off into the food. You can taste it and the longer it cooks the worse it gets. Throw onions or peppers in them and it's downright toxic tasting. It's so bad after buying and throwing away 3 slow cookers I bought a vintage Rival from the 70's off ebay. :) So I agree 1000% with ya.
This is Lodge enameled cast iron made in China, it cooks fine looks great. American Lodge enameled cast iron is new last year, it is expensive and and in my opinion ugly with a stupid sculpted design and also kind of ugly colors, not to mention it has Chinese made handle inserts.
Supporting American-made can certainly be challenging. We do the best we can. 😉👍🏽
Isn't it just a little racist to not want to buy something just cuz it's made It's somewhere else? I mean I personally do not want to work in the lodge factory I guarantee it's hot and it probably stinks.
No, it is not racist it all.
@@kevinrazzo7457 Then what is it?
it's just a matter of having different belief systems. it's okay to have them no matter what you choose.. the more we learn to tolerate others' values, the better for all ❤
No it’s not racist. It’s called being a patriot to buy USA goods. Fifty years ago most things were made here. Better quality stuff. Cloths lasted longer. Furniture lasted longer. We fixed things too. Today you throw away a tv. Back then a tv went out for a few dollars you took it to a repair shop. Stuff lasted way longer than today. Believe me we went global but look at the cost. No high paying jobs.
@@talmadgewilliams8831 You're conflating obsolescence (directly caused by capitalism), and what high-paying job do you think you're going to get forging cast iron pans? Seriously, most of the jobs that left were jobs literally No one wanted to do. Then there's the fact that unemployment is currently sitting below 4% meaning there's not actually enough workforce to make all that crap here. Seriously how many molding factories would be able to find employees to work in a hot, stinky, and unsafe plastic crap factory where you're just another machine? You think the factory that pumps out plastic guns for Dollar tree is going to be asking about the welfare or the ideas of their employees, lol. I think you might want to spend a little more time thinking the subject through. None of the jobs producing that cheap plastic crap that you're complaining about are going to be high paying jobs, like are you even serious with that?
