I bought a 12" campoven from Southern Metal Spinners today.
Also a 10" Bedourie Oven.just fits inside the CO

and what does salt do in the seasoning process

Dave, whatever you do make sure the spun (pressed) steel is spotlessly clean before you attempt to season. Had this problem with mine but they will season up OK. Spun steel needs a lower temperature but an even temperature just below smoke point. Light coats of oil and you may need to repeat upwards of 6 times. Make sure it's going black and not staying deep brown.
I don't bother with seasoning the outside of my spun steel as it scratches easily. I opt to spray with oven black and refresh when needed.
Don't forget that the lids upturned make great frypans.

Hi Ross......I tried seasoning both today.....unfortunately..only had a single gas ring....scrubbed them first.......had a lot of black greasy areas

the bedourie came up better than the ACO....but both only had 2 attempts...

The ACO trivet...though coloured twisted and buckeled.so badly I might not be able to use it

I think I might have to waite till next weekend and cook in them .will be camping..

Thanks Derek.......after reading the other thread....I'm glad I only had little heat..........they coloured up very fast....only had a single gas ring .....was thinking how they would have went if I used my campoven mate over the gas ring???
