Know before you buy
The set consists of a 3.2-quart deep Dutch oven and a lid that functions independently as a 10.25-inch shallow skillet or griddle. This 3-in-1 design allows you to use the pieces separately or together to trap steam for braising and baking.
It arrives foundry-seasoned with vegetable oil, meaning it is ready to use right out of the box. While the seasoning will improve and darken with regular use, no initial treatment is required.
Yes, the cast iron construction is fully compatible with induction cooktops, as well as traditional gas and electric ranges, ovens, grills, and even open campfires.
No, this is natural cast iron, not a chemical nonstick coating. While it is PFOA and PTFE free, you will need to maintain a proper seasoning layer and use a little oil or fat to prevent sticking, especially when cooking proteins or eggs.
The total weight of the set is approximately 13.59 pounds. Because cast iron is dense and heavy, you will want to use two hands or a sturdy oven mitt when moving it, especially when the pot is full.
Hand wash the pieces with warm water and a stiff brush, avoiding the dishwasher and harsh detergents. After washing, dry it thoroughly on the stovetop over low heat and apply a very light coating of oil to the surface before storing.
