We don’t say this lightly, but this really isn’t just any braising pan. In our book, it’s the chef’s choice for anyone who loves fire, flavour and versatility. Whether you’re making a stew on the stovetop, baking a pizza in the oven or want to make your own sourdough bread really shine – this cast-iron powerhouse does it all. And then some!
6.4 litres of pure power
Let’s start with the basics: 6.4 litres of capacity. That’s serious space. Plenty of room for a generous pulled pork, a whole chicken or a steaming stew for six hungry people. And it’s made from solid cast iron too – the king of even heat distribution. Slow cooking? Searing? Holding heat like a champ? No problem.
Grill ridges that mean business
Inside, you’ll find high, thick grill ridges. Not just for those beautiful sear marks on your steak, but also for flavour and texture. The ridges create a crispy crust, keep your meat above the fat and give vegetables that extra bit of crunch. Even grilling fruit? Of course. Get creative with grilled pineapple or peach.
Bake bread like a pro
Turn the pan upside down and suddenly you’re holding a bread cloche. And not just any cloche. The heavy cast iron holds heat perfectly, while the lid provides just the right amount of steam. The result: bread with a crust any baker would envy. Handy extra: the flat side of the lid is ideal for placing your dough on. No more burnt fingers.
Pizza like they make in Naples
Craving pizza? The flat side of the lid also doubles as a pizza stone. Preheat it, place your pizza on top and hey presto: within a few minutes, you’ll have a crisp, deep-brown base just like the one you get in Italy. Bonus: it even smells as though you’ve got a wood-fired oven in your kitchen.
Includes silicone lid – ovenproof up to 240 °C
A silicone lid is included too. Super handy for use in the oven, as it can handle temperatures up to 240 °C. That turns the pan into a seriously sturdy baking dish. Easy, convenient and safe.
