Staub Rectangular Roasting Dish, 15 Inch x 9 7/8 Inch, Black

 (2 customer reviews)

This pan is HEAVY enameled cast iron so it cleans like a dream! This is so thick and heavy that it won't bow or buckle under the largest roasts. What truly makes this unique is that it can be used on the STOVETOP! You can safely use this on an induction stove (or gas), then put it in the oven, under the broiler, and back to the stovetop to make a sauce. It looks really funny cooking with a pan like this on the stovetop, but since it distributes heat so well I don't have any hot spots if the burner doesn't fit.

Dishes that burn in other pans cook perfectly in all of my Staub. This is a great multipurpose pan which is the perfect size for a large chicken or standard cake.

The roaster looks very basic without any logos or bright colors, but this is a piece that is bought for function. If not dropped, it should last a lifetime.

I bought this roasting pan because Staub products have received high praise both here and on other sites.

The actual cooking surface is several inches smaller than advertised.

The coating on the bottom of the pan is really smooth and gentle on counters and cooktops.

The black enamel will take a season, but I find that it becomes too non-stick which inhibits browning.

I am so glad it is made in France and not China.

The handle on my first Staub Roasting Pan cracked despite not banging it around or exposing it to thermal shock. I really have no explanation for why it broke, the pan is iron and I babied it far more than I should have needed to. I have a replacement now [free from Amazon : )], and I am really hoping that pan lasts a lifetime.

I have not given up on Staub yet, but I was hoping for a little better experience with my first purchase. I have the 9.5 inch Fry Pan with Beachwood handle that I have yet to try...Read more
