The cooking capability of this pot is amazing. The black matte finish produces a unique finish when searing - you get a true caramelized finish on any thing you cook. Made in France and has a lifetime warranty.

Love the way this keeps moisture in the pot and you can cook and serve from it. Beautifully made in France and the quality is superb. I have a couple of sizes in the cocotte that I really like.

These specific cast iron is shallow but wide. It is great for braising, roasting and baking breads. If you are cooking stew or baked beans, it has enough space for anything in your recipe'. The innovative lid features tiny spikes on the interior that continually release condensed liquid back onto the food, yielding moist, flavorful results. Staub cast iron works on all stove top surfaces including gas, electric, glass, ceramic, induction, and halogen. Staub cast iron are Made in France. Heavy weight, tight-fitting lid retains moisture, spikes on the lid create a rain-forest effect evenly returning juices back onto food and it cooked like a pressure cooker. Oven safe up to 900F.

Perfect size for making for more than 4 or if you want to freeze for the future! The animal knobs from Staub only add to the charm! The self-basting feature keeps things tasty and moist w/out adding water and easy to take from over or stove-top to table for serving!

I really like this shape! It being extra wide with lower sides is perfect for braising smaller dishes like cornish game hens, or smaller ducks. You can also fit in your vegetables with your meat or poultry due to how wide it is. Same great features as the taller cocottes and dutch ovens, so a nice addition to your collection. I love mine

This shallow cocotte is perfect for braising. I make my short ribs and veal shanks in this. The self basting beads on the lid keep everything inside super moist without sacrficing any of the flavor of the sauce. The pig knob is an added bonus.

The 12" base gives you a lot surface to work with ! The even browning and heat retention and consistent temperature make this a perfect pot for meats, rice and beans!! I've made many a successful jambalaya in this pot!!
The grey is a beautiful shade!

Nice Shape for more surface area at the bottom

Because this is slightly wider than a 5.5 quart you get more surface area across the bottom for browning. The matte black interior coating is rough and provides superior browning to other cast iron. Clean easily and is beautiful from the stove/oven to the table!
