Stopped off at lodge in April and one of the things I picked up was a combo cooker I had been looking at them a while but, sort of had been telling myself I have a bunch of cast iron I could already do about everything I needed to do

but then there was a blemished one setting there and in the cart it went it was a good price for the little blemish.

been using it a bunch and darn is it handy

it's a 3 1/4 quart Dutch oven if you use it that way , the lid functions as a skillet just a really handy size and it sure makes good rice , fries fish great seems to keep a more even heat being a bit deeper and not as wide on a Colman stove.

the lid seals better than many dutch over lids on a skillet as they have the pour spouts.

just very handy size if your cooking for 1-3 people

Mine sits on the back eye of the stove. It's our main deep fry pot. Could be bigger if doing a big fish fry but for most of our french fries, corndogs, general frying purposes its about right. Beside I've got a BSR 3060 if I need a big one for a fish fry.

I do not have a combo cooker, but have about half a dozen Dutch ovens. I would like a combo cooker, and if I see the right one at the right price, I will own it.

I have a combo, I think it was from Herters, way back, but never used it. I rarely deep fry anything, and have Dutch ovens, and fry pans for everything.

I do have a cast Iron Wok that is really good for deep frying, lot of surface area but doesn't hold so much oil.....

it maybe isn't the best if you have a selection of other pans , but as a single peice that stores easily and keeps the inside clean it is very versatile

I agree, reason I bought it was to bring to my hunting camp, figured it could do everything I needed, that never happened so here it sits, lol

My combo cooker, it was my mother's and it has been in use for at least 65 yrs or so. Only markings are on the top, 4 in 1.

while it looks like a Griswold cross , I found a few references that it is a Lodge combo cooker first marketed as a 4 in 1

Griswold made something similar but the handle design is different

this one looks to match what you have
