Terrific braiser! Doubles as a fry pan & more!

This tidy little 3.5-qt braiser is perfect for a couple of chicken breasts, a pan of vegetables. But I have used it for much more - home fries in the morning get nice and crispy. Mac & cheese, scalloped potatoes or any casserole.
Graphite Gray is a beautiful contemporary gray that graces every table.
I am a huge Staub fan. This has become one of my favorites. Not only can you braise, you can fry, saute, bake...great in the oven or on the stove top. It is one of my go to pans when I'm in the kitchen. The selection of beautiful colors allows me to take the dish right to the table for serving.
What a beauty to be able to watch your food cooked

This braiser with glass lid is outstanding. To be able to have a have a view from the outside while your food is being cooked! It is deep enough not just for braising, you can also saute', stir fry, deep fry and mostly everything for this cast iron that holds heats evenly.
What makes this braiser unique is the perfectly weighted glass lid that lets you monitor what's going on inside without losing essential heat. The black matte color matches the signature Staub interior, ideal for browning and searing foods. Plus, with the dark color and coating, you never have to worry about stains or discoloration.
I love cherries and I love the color and size of this braiser. It's small enough to put in my counter top oven!! So happy for the glass lid. You can fill this pot to the top because of the high dome lid!! I love to watch my stews simmering!! Makes me very happy!! Fabulous one pot!!
I love love love this pan, its a great shape and the glass lid is awesome for the stove top, i can see how nicely the food is progressing. The high dome allows for the steam to build up but not sit right on the food. When the lid comes off this is a most beautiful serving pan too. I live that i don't need to move the food to a bowl and cool it down in the process. It arrives piping hot to the table ( hint, look into the magnetic trivets Staub makes too soo handy!!)
This is a great way to cook. It is the right size for braising a couple of chicken breasts or a pot full of vegetables. It sautes my aromatics evenly, holds the heat when I brown my proteins and the glass lid makes it easy to keep an eye on the progress of my cooking. And the beautiful colors make it easy to bring it to the table to serve from. So smart.
A great feature that Staub has is the black matte enamel interior which doesn't require seasoning like some cast iron pieces. The black matte interior is also superior for browning which you definitely want in a braiser . This braiser is perfect for searing, simmering and sauteing in addition to braising meats. This pot is beautiful from stove to table.
