STAUB Cast Iron Roaster/Cocotte, Round, 6.7 L, Grenadine, 28 cm

I love all Staub products. They can be used on all heating surfaces including your BBQ! The heat is evenly dipersed throughout the vessel which is a special advantage for low & slow cooking. The lids seal in moisture & many contain little "spikes" that concentrate the evaporated moisture, raining it back down on the food.

Can’t fault with Staub. Top performance cookware.

I've been on the fence about getting a new heavy roasting dish. Ordered a Staub one after a bit of researching, over a Le Creuset. Well made, heavy, easy to clean. Love the fact that it can be customised with Pan Lid Knobs. I've roasted Beef and Chicken in the pot and it defiantly helps keep the meat moist and a nice even cook/browning.

This cookware was talked about on TV, but the price did concern me how could I justify the cost, I am absolutely delighted I overcame my worries because it really is worth every penny, unlike other types of cocottes the unique lid means none of my food has dried out, whether I use it as a stock pot on top of the stove or as a casserole in the oven I don't have to add lots of water/stock, so my food flavours are more concentrated without the need to spend ages reducing it down. Because it looks good and is such good quality I have no problems taking it from the stove to the dinner table knowing that the contents will be piping hot and the food is perfectly cooked. One of the most used kitchen items, this one does not go into a cupboard.

Beautifully made cast iron casserole with a black interior that does not discolour. Heavy, but that is to be expected. Food cooks perfectly at a low heat owing to the excellent conduction.

Full cast iron cookware is expensive but it just can't be bettered when it comes to slow cooking. I tried a bunch of slow cooker recipes in my Instant Pot and all were a miserable failure. Electric slow cookers heat underneath but this beast from Staub heats all over, evenly, in a fraction of the time. It's heavy and you can't stick it in the dishwasher (obviously) but if you are in the market for cookware that will give you rich flavours and last a lifetime, I can heartily recommend this.

Beautiful cast iron pot. The basil colour is to die for. Excellent price on Amazon too!

I had to try two of these before I got one of acceptable quality, which judging by the other reviews is quite good. My first one had a very bobbly patch of enamel on the inside that looked like sand was trapped under the enamel. I actually queried it with Zwilling to see if it was a problem, who were pretty vague and asked me where I bought it before just saying if I wasn't happy to return it to Amazon! Considering these sell for £299 at Zwilling and I paid £141 I was a bit sceptical and the old "if its feels too god to be true it probably is" came to mind. Given some of the quality issues with other reviewers too, I was concerned that Zwilling were pushing their seconds out through Amazon.However my second one was actually in perfect condition and so relatively a bargain - Its still expensive compared to a chinese one, but it is a thing of great beauty and obviously works like a Staub should!
