Lodge gives classic cast iron cookware some chef-inspired extras. Crafted of durable, timeless cast iron, this Dutch oven goes from stove to oven to table serving braised short ribs, lamb tagine and mushroom cassoulet. The lid retains moisture so meats and vegetables cook to perfection and does double duty as a handled grill pan that browns foods beautifully while creating restaurant-style grill lines. Excelling at even heating and superior heat retention, this Dutch oven is pre-seasoned with oil for an easy-release finish. Best of all, this pan will last for years, getting better with use.
