Dutch Oven 8L+ - Valhal Outdoor - with feet
- Over 8 litres: enough for a large group
- Feet keep the pot stable above the coals
- Heavy cast iron, heat stays even for a long time
This dutch oven 8 litre from Valhal Outdoor is the largest in the range and made for cooking over fire. The three cast feet lift the base just clear of the ground, so you can set the pot right in the middle of a bed of glowing coals without flattening the coals and losing the draught.
With over eight litres of capacity you cook for a sizeable group in one go: a pot of stewed meat, chilli or goulash for eight to twelve people fits in without trouble. The heavy cast iron distributes the heat evenly and holds onto it, even when it's cold or windy outside.
- Capacity over 8 litres
- Three feet for use in the coals
- Solid cast iron with heavy lid
- For wood fire, fire bowl and kamado
- Article number VH8L+
How to cook with a dutch oven 8 litre
Build a small bed of coals, set the pot on it and shovel coals onto the lid if you want heat from above and below, for example for bread or a casserole. If you're only stewing, heat from below is enough. Move the coals rather than the pot when you want to adjust the temperature.
Feet or a flat base
Cooking mostly on the grate of your kamado or also indoors on the stove, the version without feet is more practical, since it sits flat. The version with feet is meant specifically for open fire and loose coals.
Maintenance and accessories
Rinse the pot with hot water and no washing-up liquid after use, dry it thoroughly and rub it lightly with oil. Because a hot lid is awkward to grab, a lid lifter is handy; you'll find one at the cast iron accessories. The rest of the range is at the Dutch ovens.
