Kitchen work horse.
Perfect size DO for everyday use for sauteeing, sauces, soups, etc. I purchased the black matte to accompany the cherry dragon that I had purchased previously. This item keeps food hot when covered and cleans up easily. It’s also beautiful to look at. If you follow the “care instructions ” on this website, you’ll have many happy years of enjoyment and your Dutch oven will last a lifetime.

PERFECT KITCHEN WORKHORSE THAT’S ALSO BEAUTIFUL!
Purchased this item previously in the cherry and loved it so much that when I saw it is now available in the black matte, I bought it immediately. Specific review: the size of this Dutch oven is absolutely perfect for everyday use. You can cook sauces, smaller-sized soups, sides, vegetables and just about any sauté, Its size is easy to store when not in use and it’s so pretty when displayed on top of the stove. The gold brass knob also gives the black matte finish a certain elegance. This DO heats up very well and cooks evenly, when starting off on a medium flame (always with liquid inside), holds the heat very well, and cleans up great after COOLING IT DOWN FIRST, with a non-abrasive sponge and soap. BARKEEPERS cleanser will keep it looking brand new when needed. Always use silicone spatulas, NEVER METAL! If you follow this simple tips, your DO will look beautiful for many years to come and will become the workhorse of your kitchen! Have no hesitation, just buy it!

Red Dragon Staub
Love this Staub pot! Dragon is gorgeous. I do have a 7 quart Staub workhorse that I use all the time, so this is more an occasional cookware item, but it’s a nice size.
