Enameled Dutch Oven

If you want a dedicated pot for acidic dishes and turning a bushel of tomatoes into sauce than any ceramic lined pot will do. I have an old no name ceramic 8 qt. that is used for serious, read over 4 hours, acidic cooking.

I use a well seasoned Dutch oven for my chili BECAUSE between batches of chili it gets to cook a couple of non acidic stews or soup, roast a chicken, brown beef tips, do a stir fry and cook a couple of hamburgers. Maybe even a mess of bacon. Then it is ready for another batch of chili.

Comment: I looked at Le Creuset pots the other day, and the price was more shocking than the weight of the lid! I definitely did not try to lift the pot itself. Good luck on finding a good "used" piece W.J., I am still hoping for that myself. Lacking a good large enameled CI pot, I use an older enamel-over-steel for soup and tomato cooking pot. It works, but a good enameled CI piece would be nice. Descoware would be the best--maybe I should have Scott M. look for one for me!:chuckle:
