I LOVE mine. I cook in it at least once a week, if not more. We usually use it to make soups, stews, and chilis, because the SO is a vegetarian, but I'd love to do some osso buco eventually, maybe a good pork loin, and I think an old-fashioned pot roast would also be delicious.

Soups are probably what we cook most in the Dutch oven. I made a really good potato leek soup last week. I'll have to make it again before I have a solid recipe. Soups are one thing I usually cook by taste. But one little tip--creamy soups are great with a bit of fresh grated nutmeg. Delicious.

I've also used it to bake things--it's good for making large cobblers and crisps. I want to try baking bread sometime. I've heard that sourdough is suited well to baking in a Dutch oven.
