Subject: Interesting Catalog [cast iron cookware]
I received an interesting catalog in yesterday's mail. It is titled "Chuck Wagon Outfitters" and they carry a complete line of cast iron cookware and accessories. This is their first edition catalog (1993/94). In his intro inside the front cover, the owner goes on to say, "I got the bug about Dutch oven cooking back in 1988 when I attended my first Boy Scout Woodbadge Course." His passion for this has turned into a mail order business. They also have a small store at the campground of his family's business, Avila Hot Springs Spa & RV Resort in San Luis Obispo, CA.
They carry a nice range of Dutch ovens and accessories. They carry one oven which is 22" in diameter (not a typo, that is 49 quarts) which they claim to have "roasted two 22 pound turkeys side by side in the 22" oven..." They have the usual ovens down to 8" in diameter. Talk about books, they carry 25 different books on Dutch oven cooking. They have some enamel ware and other cast iron items.
They accept Visa, MasterCard, Discover Card, and American Express. Here are the other particulars:
