G'day Jim,

The embossed lid design has been around for a few years, and even though it's one of our best-selling ovens, we've had no negative feedback on the lid & nothing to suggest it's an issue.
You could take a look at the Southern Metal Spinners as an alternative option, or may be able to pick up a vintage bedourie with a flat lid, second hand.

G'day Karen,

Theoretically, you could use the Bedourie on top of the Ozpig. It's not something we've tried ourselves, but I can't think of any reasons why it wouldn't work for you.

G'day Ido,

I have measured both sizes for you as I wasn't sure which size you were looking at. The 10" has an internal diameter of 23.5cm, the 12" has an internal diameter of 29.5cm. They are the same diameter all the way up.

G'day Brom,

The diameter measurements for both sizes are 28.3cm and 34.3cm respectively.

G'day Jamie,

I've just measured the depth of both the lid and the main oven on the Dr Livingstnoe's Bedourie. The main oven was about 120mm deep, whilst the lid was about 50mm deep. As for the unbalanced lid. This isn't something I've heard of and looking at our display models, I think they balance pretty well. 

G'day George,

Unfortunately, the Dr.Livingstone's Bedourie isn't suitable for use on an induction cooktop, best bet would be to stick with the cast iron.

G'day Mark,

The Large Hillbilly Camp Oven Steel Trivet fit nicely in the 10" but there wasn't one that was quite big enough for the 12". 

G'day Mark,

For the Dr. Livingstone's Bedourie, I'd recommend grabbing an Oztrail Camp Oven Bag. The 10" fits in the 4.5 Qt and the 12" fits in the 9 Qt.

G'day Jason,

I've just given this a whirl for you and the 10" Dr Livingstone's Bedourie does fit inside the 12" Southern Metal Spinners Camp Oven.

G'day Jon,

I wasn't entirely sure about this one so I checked with one of my more esteemed cook colleagues. They told me that you should have no issues using a Dr Livingstone's Bedourie on your Coleman Fyreknight Stove. 

G'day Rae,

Absolutely, you can use the Bedourie lid as a frypan. It's one of its great hidden features - just be sure to season it like you would with the pot. The triangles on the side can be flipped so that you can get your handle hooked in.

G'day Jason,

You can nest the 10" Bedourie inside the 12" Bedourie.

G'day Peta,

The process is relatively simple and very much the same for both Steel (Bedourie) and Cast Iron.

A teammate of mine, Dave, has written a really helpful blog on how to go about doing it which you can find here.

Hi Romy,

Depending on which size Bedourie Oven you are considering, you will need a trivet to fit either a 26cm diameter or 31cm diameter oven. The biggest trivet we have is the large Hilbilly Trivet, which is suitable for the large Bedourie oven, whilst the medium suits the smaller model. The 9Qt Campfire Camp Oven Trivet would be a tight fit for the small Bedourie, but I don't have one here at the moment to check for you sorry.

Hi Romy,

I've just compared the dimensions, and as the 10" Bedourie oven is 26 ⌀ and the 9 Qrt Campfire Camp Oven Trivet is 25 ⌀ - so there will be a 1cm gap. 

**Update 10/06/2022 - We've physically tried this out instore, and the 9qt trivet does fit the 10" Bedourie oven.  Its a tight fit, and whilst it drops in easily, you will need to tip the oven to get the trivet out.

G'day Brent,

Well spotted! It looks like we've got some incorrect information on our site there. The smaller option weighs around the 2.8kg mark and the larger option is about 3.8kg. Sorry about that, I'll get the info on the website fixed asap!
