At the workshop, MDC Community Education Assistant Jeanell Stockton will discuss the techniques of cooking with these famed cast iron cooking devices that have been serving up delicious food since the days of the early settlers. This program will have valuable information for beginning Dutch oven chefs as well as those who have experience cooking with these devices.

People wanting more information about this program can email Stockton at Jeanell.Stockton@mdc.mo.gov.

MDC staff across the state are holding in-person and virtual programs. A listing of these programs can be found at mdc.mo.gov/events.
