Jack pot. Nice. Old skillets? Do you know what brand the dutch oven is?
Not sure on the dutch. Bad thing about the oven is it is rounded on top so won't be able to use it camping really. Skillets are prolly at least 40-50 years old I'd guess, but haven't been used in probably 15 years. One is a square grill pan and the other is a regular fry pan. Will have to start the seasoning process again, but they are in great shape.
My cilantro plant has paid for itself 5 times over since I bought it 2-3 weeks ago. So, decided to buy a few more plants for fresh herbs. Bought rosemary, chives, basil and mint. Bought the mint just so I could smell it.
Crisco and your grill or a campfire.Not sure on the dutch. Bad thing about the oven is it is rounded on top so won't be able to use it camping really.

Jealous. Where do you have these plants? Are they hard to maintain? Could you do it indoors?
I use ours all the time.
No rust at all. They have beeen in storage for a few decades.
I've honestly had the cilantro plant sitting outside on the picnic table since I bought it. I've only watered it 3-4 times and it is doing very well. The others, I just bought this evening. I'm going to hang them outside in a 14" hanging basket with a coco liner tomorrow. Don't know if you've ever used these, but it's almost impossible to over water plants in them. They don't cost very much, either. Here's a link to a larger one.
I've read that the cilantro, mint, basil and chives are very low maintenance w/ little sun requirements. Would be good indoor window box type plants. I read that the rosemary requires more care and a lot of sun. I'll find out. They'll get sun about 60% of the day due to the placement.

I used to use a dutch oven quite a bit back in the day when I would just car camp for lazy convenience. Nice to actually own my own now. Might see if I can find a lipped lid that I can put charcoal on top of so I can have the option of using it with coal also. May not be able to find another lid that will fit though. I'll take free any day of the week though.
