A special note: this recipe is designed to be made in a 9 x 13 pan. This is 117 square inches of surface area. If you make this in a Dutch oven it is important that you ratio the ingredients by the surface area of your Dutch oven. Thus for a 12" diameter Dutch oven, the surface area is  113 square inches which is perfect! If you use another size, ratio the ingredients appropriately.
