I'm thankful to the owner of this piece, for her permission to post this photo!
It's literally a cast iron pot, with a removable plug on the side, like you see on electric skillets.
The same company also made electric cast iron skillets; Neither sold well.
I can see why, actually. Cast iron is camping gear, and there's no electricity outdoors. Also, it didn't heat up as fast as regular pots over a fire.
They do make "electric dutch ovens" today, called crock pots*. Not cast iron, of course.
*The owner stated that it's not exactly like a crock pot, since you can fry as well as slow cook in it.
I'd sure like the convenience of crock pot cooking with the taste of cast iron cooking... but I'm sure one of these would cost thousands.
I have a large cast iron pot, model #76, the cord is missing.I have not used it. comments would be helpful.
ReplyDeleteWhen you say, "Only 70 were made" are you talking about the deep skillet shown in the picture or an actual Dutch oven?

ReplyDeleteWhat is the value of the Electric dutch oven??
ReplyDeleteplease let me know what the value of a House of Webster electric cast iron dutch oven.. Thanks
ReplyDeleteFor the more adventurous cook, a single set just won't do. The serious cook who is into making sauces will find that non stick just won't work, as the surface of a non stick won't create the browned bits that stick to the pan and make a great base for a sauce after deglazing the pan. dutch ovens for sale
