A Dutch Oven, or what the French call Une cocotte, is probably the most competent cookware piece in the kitchen. It’s deep enough to braise, stew, or slow cook from the stovetop to the oven. As part of our D3 Collection, this Dutch Oven features a bonded tri-ply construction made with a responsive aluminum core pressed together with 2 layers of durable, stainless steel around the surface, for fast and even heat. At 5.5 quarts, it’s the perfect size for making a hearty meal for a group. To keep your All-Clad looking brand new, we recommend washing your cookware with soap and a sponge instead of the dishwasher. Bonded, Engineered, & Assembled in the USA.
