Any of you bread bakers use this cast iron pot? I like the fact that it has no long handles to stick out when using in the grill. It looks like the Lodge Combo Cooker w/o handles only larger. Any thoughts or ideas before I order one?https://www.lodgemfg.com/double-dutch-oven?sku=L8DD3 I have included a link to the Combo Cooker as well. https://www.lodgemfg.com/search?sear...Combo%20Cooker

Skip, my wife just made some bread in That Dutch Oven. I bought it about 4 mos. ago when it was on sale. The bread turned out marvelous & amazingly it has been a real work horse for the past 3 weeks. I cooked a turkey breast in it 2 days ago. When I first got it I wondered if I would get much use. Really glad I made the purchase. Been using it in the grill, oven & stove top.

Yes - the first one is great for bread because it's easier to place the dough in the upside down top than in the bottom.

I have the same 5qt dutch oven. Although I have not used it for bread, it’s a great tool. Made chili a few times on the BGE and even seared a couple of steaks on the lid. Upside down of course. It’s a perfect size for many types of cooks.

I have a smaller 2 qt one that I bake bread in. https://www.lodgemfg.com/dutch-oven?sku=L2SP3
I don't have very good bread skills, so I'm usually just baking a ball of leftover pizza dough. The lid on this 2qt one has the self-basting tips, so not necessarily good for an upside-down bake.
When not baking bread in it, I use the h e double-toothpicks out it for sauces, braising (small stuff), sauteing vegetables, etc. Both on the kitchen stove and on the grill. It's the perfect size for my 22" kettle.
