Saw a couple of deals on porcelain covered cast iron roasters on Woot.com: Woot.com
It looks like the Walmart 6.5 qt. might be a better deal: Walmart.com. The red one doesn't get as many good reviews mainly on the porcelain finish.
America's test kitchen ranked it 2nd (the Walmart one) to the $200 dollar LeCreuset one. From a review:"I've had it for over 2 years and it's holding up great". Also from reading the reviews, several other cooking sites have rated it high. The reviews do say to replace the plastic lid handle with a metal one from Home Depot, I'm guessing with the same screw or a stainless steel one.
Anyone here have experience with either of these?
I'm also looking at cast iron frying pans and was thinking about Lodge, Cowboy's Kitchen or Campfire Chef brands. Anyone have an opinion on these brands. I think they're all pre-seasoned.
