It's like a huge, thick, heavy pan.

It's American for a metal casserole dish with lid - lots of pics here .

[JanH]

Or a giant saucepan I suppose?

[mummytojames]

thank wobbly would my copper based stock pot work or am i having to spen more money just for one recipe?

[JanH]

Yes, if it's big enough.

I am so sorry to lower the tone on here but if you look at my thread about farting in front of DP/DH someone is talking about a Dutch Oven. So in answer to your question a Dutch Oven it is, apparently, when you break wind and you pull the duvet cover over your partners head to make their eyes sting. Sorry, only going by what I have been told!!!!!

I'm glad you brought that up Sparkler...

[SPARKLER1]

{grin] carrie I bet you've been bursting to say something haven't you.........that's right leave it to me!!!!!!

[JanH]

I don't think that's quite the right kind though, Sparkler

[mummytojames]
