Dinner

Did a bit of sanding & seasoning on the new dutch oven & finally used it last night. For a first attempt it went very well. Here are a few pictures.
Building the meal with potatoes, broccoli, acorn squash, onion, carrots & chicken

Cooking at 350 degrees (25 coals)

Got the chicken too close to the lid, oops! But it still tasted great.

Finally, our first meal.

Clean-up was easy, since I did the bees wax trick to season the oven again after sanding the bottom smooth. I just used a finish sander & coarse paper to knock down some of the casting marks. The older iron really was better finished then the new stuff, but it's all good.
