camp oven maintenance

[yellahunter]

just bought a cast iron camp oven and successfully cooked in it, however im noticing surface rust gathering all over the outside,

i seasoned the oven but only oiled the inside as i was told, was that correct?

can anyone give me any pointers on how to maintain or successfully setup the oven

thanks

Simply wipe over the outside of the oven with some cooking oil on a paper towel. Thats all I have been doing for years.

thanks derek, the oven looks in good shape now, i have only managed to use it once, made some damper from an earlier recipe of yours, turned out great with a bit of jam and cream!! didnt manage to try the muffins yet, we ran out of time on the last camp trip. hopefully soon mate.

cheers
