I bought a Cabela 14" dutch oven and it was really rough sand cast. I coated it with Lard and baked it a couple of times, but wasn't making much headway on getting it seasoned fit to use. I took it out to the shop and used my big angle grinder and a knotted steel cup brush and worked it real good inside, then seasoned it again. Works great now and goes hunting and camping with me all the time.


My biggest fear is when I die my wife will sell my guns for what I told her they cost....
