Whenever you see a Le Creuset Dutch oven on sale, grab it — that’s the rule. This gorgeous piece of cookware can make a healthy 6.75 quarts of deliciousness (that’s six to seven servings) whether you braise, bake, sear or roast. Made with the brand’s famous enameled cast iron, the piece is resistant to staining, chipping and cracking, and it’s dishwasher-safe. (Psst: Check out our home editor’s Le Creuset Dutch oven review.)
“Le Creuset may be expensive, but take it from experience, nothing compares to the quality and beauty of Le Creuset,” said a loyal fan. “I have many pieces, and the round-wide Dutch oven is special. I love the width because I can brown more food at one time without crowding, and overall it gives me a wide-open view of what’s going on inside.”
