Cabela’s Oval Roaster is one heavy piece of cast iron! When the UPS driver delivered this chuck of a pot, they had to use a fork lift! Just kidding of course. This is one awesome addition to your Dutch oven collection. I ordered mine last November from Cabela’s web site for $79.99 plus shipping, it arrived in less than a week.

It weighs a lot, at least 20lbs. The quality is excellent, solid, no warpage, pits or flaws of any kind. Cabela’s logo is casted on the top making for a nice look. Un-seasoned, oh well! Just make sure to do a double seasoning to make in non-stick.

The dimensions of this beast will enable you to place a roast, rack of ribs or a bucket of stew in side! It’s 20” wide from handle to handle tip, 6” tall (bottom to top) and 10 ½” deep. Inside measurement are: 17 ½” x 9 ¼” x 4”.

So far I have cooked roasts, ribs and stews in mine. The possibilities are endless. Did I mention griddle? Well that’s what the lid will be for if you just flip it over. Pancakes, sausage, bacon, eggs or crepes, you can do it all on this griddle!

Pick up your Cabela’s Oval Roaster at Cabela’s. Model # IH -  516770

If you have one or get one, let me know what you think!
