These are the only dutch ovens you should consider.

Also great
“The Le Creuset has a higher-quality enamel finish that’s less likely to chip over time. But it doesn’t cook better than the Lodge, and it costs nearly six times as much.”

Our pick
“With big handles and a durable design, this Dutch oven aced every test, rivaling models four times the price.”

Also great
“This slightly larger pot cooks evenly and allows for a nearly perfect amount of evaporation, but the handles are smaller and harder to grip than those of our main pick.”
