Lodge LHP3 Pre-Seasoned Half Pint Serving Kettle



Useful, nifty, and just a bit witchy
I bought it because it looked cute. Then I got it. I squeed.

It's a nice, small, kettle. A little cauldron, suitable for burning incense, planting flowers, serving gravy, or just looking cool on your knick-knack shelf. Got a friend who's into gothic or witchy stuff? This makes a real nice, inexpensive, but durable, gift for that person. Buy several, plant low-water plants in them, and give them to friends. Even if the plants die, they still have a durable pot that the cats can't break. My kittens have knocked mine over several times, and there's not even a dent. Warning: this great little item may trigger an addiction to cast iron cookware and decorations.

Another satisfied witch.
I had the idea of using this for a cauldron before seeing the previous review. (Although I was amused to see someone had the same idea when looking at prices on Amazon.)

The diameter of the inside of the cauldron is about 3 inches. The diameter of the outside is about 4 inches. It is about 1.5 inches deep. I figured this out before buying it, but it was difficult. It is perfect for a cauldron or a mini bread oven.

Lodge Logic pans are always excellent and easy to season, and this pot is no exception.

Great little sauce pot
I love to use this to heat up and serve bbq sauce.

My only complaint is with the three pronged legs, in that sometimes I can't properly place it on my cooking grates in my charcoal grill. They could have made the bottom more flat, or somehow more grate-friendly.

But this little thing is great. Really cleans easily if you make sure you only use water, and coat it with a little bit of oil before and after using it. That keeps it seasoned properly so the sauce comes right off when you clean it with just warm water.
