The American-based company Lodge has been fine-tuning its construction  of rugged, cast-iron cookware for more than a century. No other metal  is as long-lasting and works as well for spreading and retaining heat  evenly during cooking. Lodge's Logic line of cookware comes factory  pre-seasoned with the company's vegetable oil formula, and is ready to  use right out of the box.  At 10-1/4 inches in diameter and 4 inches  deep, this 5-quart Dutch oven holds a heap of chili, chicken and rice,  or fruit cobbler. This model is not the campfire style, with legs, wire  handle, and a lid for coals. This one is flat-bottomed to sit on a  stovetop burner or in the oven, with a domed lid that sends moisture  back into the pot. Loop handles aid in carrying with oven mitts. While  the Dutch oven comes pre-seasoned to prevent food from sticking, it  works best when sprayed or lightly coated with vegetable oil before use.  After the meal is done, simply scrub the cast iron with a stiff brush  and hot water, no soap, and dry immediately. Lodge covers the sturdy  oven with a lifetime limited warranty against defects, and when cared  for properly, this virtually indestructible pan should last for  generations. --Ann Bieri
