Big-batch cooking, indoors or out

The Petromax FT9 is a serious Dutch oven for cooks who feed a crowd. With a 7.5L capacity (6.1L without the lid) it handles roasts, stews, chilli, bread and slow-cooked one-pots for 8 people or more, whether you are off-grid at camp or entertaining in the garden.

Cast iron that lasts a lifetime

Forged from heavy cast iron, the FT9 retains and spreads heat evenly across the base and up the walls. That means consistent results from top to bottom, gentle simmering without hot spots, and the kind of durability that gets passed down rather than replaced.

The lid is a second pan

The tight-fitting lid doubles as a skillet, griddle or serving platter, so you can fry, sear or keep food warm while the pot works below. A raised rim holds coals on top for all-round baking heat, and a thermometer hole helps you track the temperature.

Ready to cook out of the box

Petromax pre-seasons the FT9 at the factory, so there is no lengthy preparation before your first meal. A quick rinse and it is good to go. Re-oil after each wash and the natural non-stick surface only improves with use.

Built for the field

Three sturdy feet stand the pot over embers, charcoal or a fire pit, while the notched wire handle lets you lift or hang it safely over the flames. Equally at home on a gas hob or in the oven, it is a genuine do-anything camp kitchen workhorse.

Frequently asked questions

How many people does the Petromax FT9 feed?

With a 7.5L capacity (6.1L without the lid) the FT9 comfortably caters for 8 or more people, making it ideal for group trips, events and large family meals.

Do I need to season it before first use?

No. The FT9 arrives pre-seasoned from the factory, so after a quick rinse it is ready to cook. Re-oil it after washing to keep the seasoning building over time.

Can I use the lid as a pan?

Yes. The heavy cast iron lid is designed to double as a skillet, griddle or serving platter, giving you a second cooking surface over the fire.

Is the version with feet suitable for a campfire?

Yes. The three cast iron feet let the pot stand securely over hot embers, charcoal or a fire pit, which is exactly what the footed FT9 is built for.

How do I clean and store cast iron like this?

Hand wash with hot water and a stiff brush, avoid harsh detergents, dry thoroughly and wipe with a thin layer of oil before storing. Do not put it in the dishwasher.
