TDG: Regarding Lodge's Pre-Seasoned Cast Iron


Fat Guy

Recommended Posts

I saw on Amazon's Friday Sale that the Lodge Logic 5-Quart Pre-Seasoned Dutch Oven was on sale.

The lid isn't flat so it's not a camping oven but my question is is there any reason why I couldn't use this as a fryer as well? The Lodge Logic Pre-Seasoned 5-Quart Chicken Fryer with Iron Cover is 2 inches larger in diameter but has a depth of 3 & 1/4 inches. The Dutch Oven has a depth of 4 inches.

If I get the Dutch Oven and use it as a fryer, too, am I losing anything by not having that extra 2 inches in diameter? Overcrowding could become an issue, but is that really an issue in this case?
