Know before you buy
No, the interior is finished with a durable matte enamel that does not require seasoning. You can start cooking with it immediately right out of the box.
Yes, the cast iron construction is fully compatible with all stovetop types, including induction, gas, and electric.
The signature spikes are designed to catch evaporating moisture and distribute it evenly back onto your food. This self-basting process keeps your roasts and stews tender and flavorful throughout the cooking process.
Yes, the Dutch oven is oven-safe up to 500°F, making it perfect for transitioning from stovetop searing to oven roasting or baking crusty bread.
While the pot is durable, we recommend hand washing with warm, soapy water and a soft sponge. Avoid using harsh metal scouring pads, which can scratch the enamel over time.
