Every now and then I post DO recipes here on this forum for those seeking to be Cast Iron Chefs. We go to Dutch Oven Gatherings known affectionately as DOGs.
If you are using charcoal I recommend that you download the

Always monitor the pot and as one old-timer told me when I started out "use your smeller". If it smells like it's beginning to burn it probably is.
When baking it's important to turn the lid every 10 minutes or so if you want even baking color on your biscuits.
Here are some threads with recipes to get you started. This first one has three sources that will give you a good beginning.
