3.5 Qt Dutch Oven

The 3.5 quart size is perfect for my weekly batch of chili, and the cast iron heats so evenly that I've ditched my old stockpot entirely. It's heavy, but that's exactly what you want for a slow braise that comes out tender every time.

The enameled interior has stayed spotless through three braises and a loaf of bread, and the lid fits so snugly that steam barely escapes. My stews come out richer tasting than anything I’ve made in a thin pot.

The lid fits so snugly that my stew barely lost any steam over three hours, and the even heat distribution completely eliminated the hot spots my old pot had. I’ve used it every weekend since it arrived, and the enameled interior wipes clean in under a minute.
