Dutch Oven Cooking
Cooking with a Dutch Oven is easy if you remember a
few basic rules. Heat the Dutch Oven before you start cooking. Each
charcoal briquette equals about 20 degrees. Place equal amount on the
top & bottom for cooking. If you are cooking a meal that usually
sticks, line the oven with foil. To help end burnt bottoms on your
muffins/breads, line a round cooling rack with foil and place in
bottom of oven. For pies bake in foil pie pan raised with three flat
stones or cooling rack.
