Hi.  I'm trying to find where I can get a HUGE Cast Iron Camp Oven.  I want one much bigger than the normal big ones you find in stores.  Can anyone help?
Thanks
chrisa

Hi Chrisa and welcome.

What do you mean by HUGE  Some of us bought 22 inch camp ovens from Cabelas in the US when they were available.

For some reason they are no longer listed on their site.

Billmans in Victoria make an 18".  Have a look here http://www.aussiecampovenforum.com/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaBB.pl?num=1218493446

ACT I
SCENE I. A desert place.

   Thunder and lightning. Enter three Witches

First Witch

   When shall we three meet again
   In thunder, lightning, or in rain?

Second Witch

   When the hurlyburly's done,
   When the battle's lost and won.

Third Witch

   That will be ere the set of sun.

First Witch

   Where the place?

Second Witch

   Upon the heath.

Third Witch

   There to meet with Macbeth.

First Witch

   I come, Graymalkin!

Second Witch

   Paddock calls.

Third Witch

   Anon.

ALL

   Fair is foul, and foul is fair:
   Hover through the fog and filthy air.

   Exeunt

Hey crisa, (and welcome!) Any reason for wanting such a large bit of cast????
Collecting?
Prop for a play? (see above)
Need to cook a whole Yowie? ("in" joke)
Just how much "largeness" required?

cheers
Ross

The Cabelas 22' is the largest comercial one that I have ever heard of. Beyond that you might want to look into Sugaring Kettles. They don't have a lid so you will need to make one.

Lehmans (http://www.lehmans.com/) has them for sale

And the largest is an 85 Gallon Iron Kettle for $3,499.00  :o

Beware Crisa, the Cabellas ovens are big in dia but to shallow to put a descent roast in, I use mine for bread rolls etc,
I can vouch for the Billmans 18"er, it is a nice big, deep & bloody heavy Aussie made oven but you get what you pay for & at $305 they are not cheap!

Stay tuned, I may be onto a source of extremely big ovens through a "Drovers Camp Resturant" owner I know,

Mick.
