Yes lodge! The 5 qt double Dutch oven is right around $50 and it is perfect!!!!! If that is still not in the cards, you can put a heat proof stainless steel mixing bowl over the loaf to create a similar steam effect. It works best on a baking stone- preheat oven/stone (475/500) to super hot, transfer proofed loaf to stone and brush or spray the top with water, immediately place a large sufficiently high domed for rise- stainless making bowl right over top of your loaf. It won’t be exactly the same but will improve your oven spring and crust. The double Dutch oven by lodge is a solid choice though if you can swing it. It is sooo much easier and less burns then reaching into a deep Dutch oven!
