I'm 66 and searched for years for Lodge 18" or 20" camp oven. Susposed to have been made up until the 1920s on their old sales catalog. I bought a Cabelas 20" camp oven with lid several years ago, has its logo on lid. I've cooked several times for large Scout feeds. Once cooked 14 chickens at one time. Like your dad, i have to get one of my sons to tote it now, weighs 63 lbs empty.

[@bmac1964]

63 pounds! Wow! I didn’t know Cabelas offered one that big.

[@stevebutler8387]

@@bmac1964 they dropped it from their line about 15 years ago

❤️❤️❤️ OMG I have the same pot y'all just pulled out that fits in the stove. I became a cast iron junkie and ended up with over 200 pcs. Unfortunately had to move and the spiders were the first to go. Cast iron is amazing and will last forever if you take care if it. I love that custom made divided one never seen one like that. I'll keep my eyes open for y'all.

[@bmac1964]

Hate that you had to get rid of some of your pieces. Breaks my heart. Does your stove pot have a lid?

[@sic-n-tiredtired4273]

@bmac1964 some did, if you want me to keep an eye open for anything let me know I'm always at resale shops digging around.

You’re welcome. I get it right every now and then.

Sturdy table

[@bmac1964]

Yep. Needs to be with all of those ditches.

[@robbielowe665]

What's a bell? 😊 y'all really got your exercise gathering and stacking all those pots! Thanks for sharing, but I gotta say... it's too hot for a campfire right now!

[@bmac1964]

That’s why we were inside.

When did cowboys start wearing short-sleeve shirts?

[@bmac1964]

When it gets hot outside. 😊

Happy camper out of Utah has a meca 22 inch dutch oven

[@bmac1964]

MACA is making some larger Dutch ovens. I was referring to the old spider ovens. I should have been more clear. Thanks.

An old man I knew had a camp oven you could fit a turkey in when potatoes pumpkin and sweet potato it was huge I wish I knew what happened to it it was an oval shape

[@bmac1964]

A turkey? I would like to see that Was it a spider or a bell? Do you think it was old?

[@icantcook9998]

Not too sure what brand it was my mates old man got it when he was working on a bush gang back in the 50s land clearing it was the cooks oven when the contract was finished he went home and ended up with the camp oven recently he has passed and I've been trying to find out what happened to the oven because I've never seen anything like it it was definitely older than the 50s it was Oval shape in the lead only had about 1/2 inch step down for Coals you could fit two legs of lamb and veggies no worries or turkey and veggies

[@bmac1964]
