Got a Dutch Oven collecting dust in the garage?

🏕️ 23rd Annual Payson Area Dutch Oven Gathering (PADOG) 🏕️

📅 May 23, 2026
📍 Rumsey Park Ramada #5 – Payson, Arizona
⏰ 1 PM – 7 PM (Serving starts at 5 PM)

Come for the food…
Stay because you ate too much to move.

Bring your favorite Dutch Oven recipe and all the fixin’s for an afternoon packed with:

🍖 Smoky meats
🥔 Cheesy potatoes
🍑 Cobblers bubbling like Yellowstone
🌶️ Chili with “questionable” levels of heat
🥧 Desserts so good they should probably be illegal

Whether you’re a seasoned cast-iron cowboy or someone who just likes eating free samples, PADOG is the perfect place to sharpen your Dutch oven skills, swap recipes, and pretend calories don’t count outdoors.

⚠️ Warning: Side effects may include:

Unbuttoning your pants
Asking strangers for recipes
Buying another Dutch oven you absolutely do not need
Going back for “just one more bite” seven times

Bring a smile, bring a spoon, and bring your appetite.
