Overview

Staub makes this round cast iron braiser with a domed lid, three-step Majolica enameling and vintage look handles. The heavy lid holds moisture in as large cuts of meat cook, and the pot goes from oven to table.

Its range runs from braised lamb shanks to breakfast hash. The handles are shaped for use with oven mitts. The spec table gives capacity in liters while the title says quarts.

Who it's for

Home cooks who braise meat and want a pot that looks good on the table. Anyone who struggles with heavy cookware should choose differently.

Performance notes

Cast iron stores and spreads heat evenly, and the domed lid sends moisture back onto the food. The weight of the lid helps hold in the steam. Sauteing, frying, braising and roasting are all listed uses.
