Coq au Vin is essential for cooking larger poultry and roasts. Tight fitting lid with the dimples guarantees a juicy, tender and flavorful result..I find I use less liquid and my meal cooks quicker and it's due to this self-basting lid. Compared to my other cast iron pots, I find the dark interior does a better job browning and searing than my other cast iron. Beautiful piece and fantastic results. I like that I can serve straight from the Coq au Vin, which helps in keeping the dinner easy to serve straight from the oven to the tabletop.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Beautiful Presentation, Fantastic Cooking Results

This cocotte works just like a slow cooker....brown and sears and sautes in same pot. Self basting lid gives a juicy and flavorful finished meal; cooks faster than just using a traditional dutch oven. Meal is served in the cocotte, making for a quick clean up after dinner. Each color is beautiful, and the rooster finial adds the finishing touch to a great product.

Rooster finial not oven safe?
on November 19, 2020
Posted by: kjf5
I used this pot one time in a low heat oven. The rooster finial changed from a pretty, shiny brass to a dingy and discolored black and grey. It appears that the knob is not oven safe. Has anyone else had this problem?
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
Response from Zwilling.comBy Consumer Relations, November 24, 2020
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. The knob is oven safe up to 500°F. However, there are substances that can cause damage on the knob when heated, like acids in certain foods and/or dish detergents. We also recommend keeping the knob and lid several inches away from the heating element in your oven while cooking. If you believe the damage was caused by a potential manufacturing defect, please consider filing a warranty claim: https://www.zwilling.com/us/warranty.html
I am a relatively new cook in my home and am just getting into braising, roasting, etc and have been using my Staub 4 qt. braiser. I love it. Its heaviness and quality make me feel good - like a real chef! I have not yet used my new 5.75-qt Coq au Vin Cocotte (I just received it yesterday) but know it will be just as great as my braiser.
I couldn’t find an imperfection on the thing, very well made, impressively heavy but looking forward to using!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Bridal Shower Gift

A Staub fan, I wanted to present my daughter with a piece that would be remembered long after her special day. This glossy shade coq au vin with rooster knob was hands down her favorite gift. Destined to be a heirloom piece for anniversaries to come.
I would recommend this to a friend!

The ultimate French piece
on March 24, 2020

This is the perfect cocotte for perfecting French recipes, roasting chicken, or duck. The oval shape really comes in handy for doing large pieces of meat, and the lid is nice and heavy; really helps prevent heat and moisture from escaping, creating an amazing meal every time in the coq au vin. Love the rooster knob on top too, just an extra accent to this Staub piece.
