Enameled Cast Iron Braiser with Self-Basting Lid, 5 Qt Round, Slate Gray, Crock-Pot Artisan

Sear, simmer and serve in one wide, shallow pot that goes from stovetop to table

At a Glance

• 5 quarts: a wide, shallow pan for braises, one-pan chicken, and shakshuka
• Self-basting lid: condensation drips back onto the food
• Oven safe to 500 F: start on the stove, finish in the oven
• All cooktops: gas, electric, ceramic, and induction
• Slate gray enamel: a soft gray that serves straight at the table

A braiser is the pan for dishes that start with a sear and finish with a slow simmer. This Crock-Pot Artisan braiser holds 5 quarts in a wide, low shape, so chicken thighs, short ribs, and vegetables brown in a single layer before the liquid goes in. The self-basting lid returns condensation to the food, the cast iron holds steady heat, and the enamel finish needs no seasoning. It works on every cooktop including induction, handles oven heat up to 500 F, and the low profile looks good on the table and fits in the fridge for leftovers.

Key Features

• Wide, shallow shape: more surface area means more browning and less crowding than a tall pot.
• Self-basting lid: moisture collects under the lid and drips back onto the food as it cooks.
• Even, lasting heat: cast iron spreads heat steadily and keeps food warm at the table.
• Stovetop to oven: works on gas, electric, ceramic, and induction, then moves straight into a 500 F oven.
• Enameled finish: no seasoning required, and food releases with less oil.
• Large loop handles: two wide handles give a secure grip with oven mitts on.

What's Included

In the box: one 5-quart round enameled cast iron braiser and its matching self-basting cast iron lid.

Before You Buy

• It weighs more than 15 pounds. Enameled cast iron is heavy, and a full braiser is heavier still. Lift it with both handles and oven mitts.
• Hand wash only. Wash it by hand with warm soapy water once it cools to keep the enamel glossy.
• Avoid sudden temperature changes. Never add cold water to a hot braiser or set it on a cold, wet surface, since thermal shock can crack the enamel.

Perfect For

• Braised chicken thighs and short ribs
• Shakshuka and one-pan rice dinners
• Pot roast with vegetables
• Baked pasta that goes straight to the table
• Holiday sides that stay warm on the buffet

Care & Use

• Let the braiser cool, then wash it by hand with warm soapy water and a soft sponge.
• Use wood, silicone, or nylon utensils to protect the enamel.
• Heat it gradually on low to medium; cast iron holds heat well and rarely needs high heat.
• Always use oven mitts, since the handles and lid get hot.
