Howdy to all! Let me introduce myself, Allen Bettis. Jesse Bettis was my uncle. When he passed away back in 2007, he asked me to take over his BBQ and Family website. I hesitated at first, but have decided to take on this task of keeping it up. So, in the future there will be some very minor changes as I bring this up-to-date. Thanks! ACB 10/30/2010
WAIT!
BACK TO THE BASICS!
Let's be sure what we are talking about. I call a cast iron pot, with three legs and a recessed lid, a dutch oven. I think that this is also called a "camp oven" and the cast iron pot with the domed lid (no legs) is called a dutch oven. Now, I have a 10" cast iron skillet that has three legs and a recessed lid; I don't know what category it falls into, but it is ideal for biscuits, cornbread and peach cobbler. I also have a potje, which is a South African, cast iron, pot-bellied pot, with three long legs and a domed lid. Now, I think I have just muddied the water, but we will slog ahead. I will try to stick with the camp oven and dutch oven.
