STAUB 3.5-Quart Matte Black Enameled Cast Iron Braiser with Glass Lid - Perfect for Slow Cooking, Roasting & Serving Dishes Family Style

I love each (total of 3 now ʘ‿ʘ ) of my Staubs! This one does not disappoint.Zwilling lists the braiser as:Net weight: 7.72 lbsCapacity: 3.59 qtLength of product: 15.28 inWidth of product: 11.81 inHeight of product: 5.31 inBottom thickness: 0.17 inUpper diameter: 11.81 inBy Zwilling USA MANUFACTURERAlso, the braiser is approximately 2 inches deep and the actual cooking surface (bottom) is approximately 10 inches.This is not a light-weight pot, so if you have issues picking up items with some weight, I suggest find one in the store to be sure you can lift it (remember you'll be filling it with food ｡-́‿-̀｡ )The Cherry Red color isn't a bright red (more of a burnt cherry red), but still a beautiful color! I leave mine sitting on my stovetop it is so pretty!The glass lid fits tight (no steam escaped where the lid sits on the braiser sides) ... which makes the lid work great when you are steaming and *not* supposed to lift the lid. When the lid is lifted (hold it over the pan for the water to fall in), the lid immediately clears and is easy to see through once placed back on the pot. The knob does get hot so don't use your fingers to try and lift the lid while cooking.I did season mine (mixed thoughts from everyone on this step) and immediately cooked a chicken and rice dish. The chicken was tender and had a nice, even crisp skin. I normally cook rice in the Instant Pot (you can't beat Instant Pot rice!), but this pan did a great job.Cleanup was a breeze--I simply wiped it and was ready to cook my veggies. After cooking the meal, I let the pot cool and washed with Dawn, water, and a soft towel and the pan cleaned up beautiful! The lid can "probably" go in the dishwasher (IF I ever did, I would remove the knob), but I ***never*** would put the actual pot in there (so I handwash both).I have also fried eggs (adding oil to the pan) in it and the braiser did a great job!Looking forward to Fall and cool weather meals!!Thank you Staub!!Look for auditorcentral reviews on: AMZ/FB/IG#staub #food #cooking #castiron #delicious
