Hello Keepers of the Black Pot I ran across this web site a few months back. www.camp-cook.com If you want history, recipes pictures of cooking and all sorts of goodies then check them out. Of course come back here when you want to cowboy-up haha
You can cook it all in a D.O.

Jim,
I'm not sure.....It works from sea level to about 3,000 ft.
That's my experience.
It seems that it shouldn't matter, it's not like boiling water.

Let us know when you find out. I would say that it's hard to make anything that isn't great in a Dutch Oven.
All the best,
Ed

Great information will altitude effect the heat factor , we camp on the Oregon trail at about 6,000 ft.

Western Cooks and Chefs,
I am glad to have recently found this site and this group.
Attached is a great Dutch Oven Recipe and a briquette/temperature reference guide.
Please consider this as my offer of gratitude.
Over the years I won many awards in cooking competitions.
Mostly BBQ and Chile Cookoffs.
I am an amateur Western Cook but love my hobbie.
Hope you are able to enjoy and share your favorite recipes as well.
Thanks for having me,
Ed

Might add that I put the cheese on top after the baking was done-shook the ashe's from the lid, sprinkled the cheese on top and replaced the lid but left it cracked open, to let the residual heat melt the cheese.

I am just partial to the greek seasoning. Thanks for the info on heavier on the top...that was my first thoughts hence the bottom is in direct contact with coals.

10 inch DO a little charcoal on the bottom, a ring of coals on top of the lid and a couple in the center- baked for an hour or so. Used Mrs Dash orginal instead of the greek stuff . Sandwich would be good Gus or we can roll em' in a tortilla too with a little salsa. Key is to keep most the coals and heat on top of the Dutch Oven.
