Please, BR30/R30 question

I have six recessed light fixtures in my living room. I have yet to find a dimmable LED flood that is recommended for closed fixtures. Some dimmable CFL bulbs are recommended for enclosed fixtures. However, there is some question as to whether CFL floods are truly dimmable. I have seen mention that with the correct dimmer, the BR30 or R30 CFL bulbs are truly dimmable. As I remember, my new dimmer switch has two or three settings; at least one for standard and one for led. I don't remember if it has one for CFL's or if CFL is combined with LED. I would prefer LED floods, but I haven't found any recommended for use in recessed/enclosed fixtures. I have already burned a few LED bulbs. Any suggestions?
