The Staub Cast Iron 6 qt. Cochon Shallow Wide Round Cocotte, in Graphite Grey, features an extra-wide cooking surface with sides high enough to contain liquids for braising, this oven is ideal for roasting meat and slow cooking stew. The innovative lid features tiny spikes on the interior that continually release condensed liquid back onto the food, yielding moist, flavorful results. The black-matte enameled interior doesn't need seasoning and, as cooking oils seep into the pores over time, will become a self-seasoned, non-stick surface. Staub cookware is compatible with all cooktops, including induction, and are made in France.
