Dutch Oven size recommendation
I am looking either a 12' or 14' Camp Chef Dutch oven with feet and lid with a lip. We cook regularly for 4 to 6 people. My initial thoughts to use it was for baking desserts, breads, rolls,.. ...

I think most recipes are written for 12's, if that is any help.
We have a 10" which makes way more than enough for the two of us, but we always have to adjust the recipes and the number of charcoal briquettes because they are written for 12 inch ovens.
I'm not sure how to interpret the volume capacity of the lid. We've never cooked anything or any liquids on top of the lid, only used it for holding the charcoal, or very rarely, turning it upside down and frying something on the underside...but I'm always up for learning new things.
