Staub

Wonderfully conceived and constructed, a joy to use. The ribs hold the food up off the fats while grilling and make a nice sear pattern for presentation. Perfect for roasting chunked vegetables, preheat on the burner once the oven is hot, then it all comes together just right. The ceramic seasons like iron, but in a non-metallic way. Looking forward to using in a wood-fired Pompeii oven once I get one built. This is the second one I purchased - one was not enough for both homes!

i haven't used this but it looks to be made in the staub tradition of excellent quality. i hesitated to buy since i don't have much use for a relatively small pot, but i couldn't resist and i will use it for side dishes. i also wondered if the color would be too blah but it's a soft riche matte grey, very lovely.

This is my first Staub piece since all my cast-iron cookware are from Le Creuset. I bought the Staub grill in red/cherry and it matches my Le Creuset pieces (also in red) very well. This is supposed to be a 10" grill pan. The pan is a rounded square shape, so the inside dimensions is approximately 7.5" at its narrowest and 9" at its widest. It's smaller than I wanted but the size is good enough for 2 people. Since I bought the grill at a decent price (with a coupon code from STP), I'm not too bothered by the small-ish size. I really just want to try Staub and for the price, it's a great way to do so.
