The Staub 5.5-quart round cocotte is an enameled cast iron pot sized for a whole chicken or stew for four to six. Its black matte enamel interior sears and browns without seasoning and won't react with acidic foods, and the spiked lid drips condensation back onto the food. It works on gas, electric, induction and in the oven up to 500°F, then goes to the table. Against Le Creuset's light interior, Staub's dark textured enamel hides stains and develops a patina, but the interior makes it harder to watch fond brown. Owners praise the browning and heat retention and note the weight.

Owners rate the browning, heat retention and self-basting lid highly, and many call it their most-used pot. Complaints center on weight and the dark interior making it hard to see browning.
The 5.5-quart round cocotte is Staub's everyday size: big enough for a whole chicken or a pot of stew for four to six, compact enough for the stovetop every day. Its textured black matte interior sears and browns beautifully, and the heavy, spiked lid bastes food as it cooks, so braises come out tender and juicy.
Why cooks choose it
Self-basting lid. Small spikes under the heavy, tight-fitting lid drip condensation evenly back onto the food.
Black matte interior. Its textured enamel browns well, needs no seasoning and won't react with acidic foods. With use, cooking oils build a smooth, naturally non-stick surface.
Stovetop to oven to table. It works on every heat source, including induction, goes in the oven to 500°F and serves straight at the table.
Each piece is unique. Every Staub is cast in a single-use sand mold in France, so small variations in the enamel are part of its character, not defects.
