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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Features\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWide, shallow shape:\u003c\/strong\u003e more surface area means more browning and less crowding than a tall pot.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSelf-basting lid:\u003c\/strong\u003e moisture collects under the lid and drips back onto the food as it cooks.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEven, lasting heat:\u003c\/strong\u003e cast iron spreads heat steadily and keeps food warm at the table.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStovetop to oven:\u003c\/strong\u003e works on gas, electric, ceramic, and induction, then moves straight into a 500 F oven.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnameled finish:\u003c\/strong\u003e no seasoning required, and food releases with less oil.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLarge loop handles:\u003c\/strong\u003e two wide handles give a secure grip with oven mitts on.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn the box: one 5-quart round enameled cast iron braiser and its matching self-basting cast iron lid.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBefore You Buy\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIt weighs more than 15 pounds.\u003c\/strong\u003e Enameled cast iron is heavy, and a full braiser is heavier still.
