Simple steps to cure or season your cast iron camping oven before use
Simple steps to cure or season your cast iron camping oven before use
In order to cure or season your camping oven all you will need to do is follow the 3 simple steps below. The oven will need to be cured prior to use, as this stops any of the internal surfaces from rusting and contaminating the food within.
Why do we need to season or cure our camp ovens from new?. Good question, the answer is curing the surface of the camp oven is very important in order to stop any rusting of the cooking surfaces. This will ensure that youre oven lasts for many happy cooking years.
Step 1) Seasoning or curing youre Camp oven:
Wash the camp oven with hot soapy water in order to remove the any packaging firm, this will prepair the camp oven for the heating stage.
Step 2) How do we season or cure our camp oven for use:
This is a very simple step indeed, all we need to do is remove the camping ovens protective coating, to do this we place it in the oven at 250 degress celcius (remove after 10 minutes with oven gloves) then cover with solidified oil both inside and outside of the oven, put it back in the oven at 250 celcius until it starts to smoke and changes colour the colour you are after here is a nice burnt black.
Note: If you don`t have an oven or you are in the great out doors just place it in the fire to complete steps 1 and 2.
Step 3)
Make sure that you cover the entire camp oven with the grease supplied by the camping store after you have compled the above steps. This will lubricate the surfaces and stop any degrading both internal and external.
Once you have done this step you are ready to cook.
My review of this product
Which brings me to another must have when you’re out there enjoying your camping experience and dinner time rolls around. I like to break out the 4.5 quart camping oven. In my opinion it has to be one of the best things for cooking a full roast meal in just hours, while still enjoying the wilderness, wandering and exploring.
One of the things I have found with my oven was that you can put them on the fire and walk away, see the sights and when you get back you have a full roast meal there waiting for you, truly awesome. The only down side that I have found is that they are a pain if you don’t clean them straight away or just plan don’t want to. But the food that they produce and the taste are out of this world.
