Good everyday size for lots of jobs. Nobs beneath lid aid in keeping food nice and evenly moist. Cherry red is a bright attention-grabber. Heats quickly and evenly..Comes with cute rooster atop..
I'm thinking Caribbean chicken with this cocotte. This pan has crazy heat capability , it heats up quickly and evenly, also stays hot for hours. It has self-basting spikes on the interior of the lid which collect and return all moisture back into dish - nothing dries out and the food stays moist. I often pan fry burgers in the pan and the searing capability of the pan is phenomenal.
This coq au vin can cook anything. I love to use it for roasting chickens. The inside is coated with Staub's famous black matte finish which sears beautifully. The self basting spikes on the inside of the lid collect all condensation and return it to the pan, so nice moist chicken. Don't stop at chicken, it does roasts, pan fries steaks and burgers, we have even made cioppino in it.
I absolutely love my Staub pots. This one is a great size for roasting a chicken or any other roast for that matter. I also use it for soups, stews, chili and one pot dinners. I love the way it heats so evenly and retains the heat for serving. The matte black coating on the interior cleans up so easily.
I like that it's a little larger and have made a couple of Stews & Soups this past winter. Really like the replacement decorative knobs as an embellishment. Very strong & cleans up beautifully..love the color choices also.

Love these pots for the rustic, yet sophisticated look, all at the same time! The chicken knob gives away the wonderful surprise inside - bringing the whole chicken with potatoes or rice and veggies to the table and serving straight from this cocotte! Heats evenly and quickly and the spiked lid keeps the food inside super moist!
