Features

- Vertical ribbed texture: Drains excess fat for healthier cooking.
- Ideal for meat and fish: Suited to tender cuts that benefit from fat draining away as they cook.

Care
- Before first use: Wash in warm, soapy water, then rinse and dry thoroughly.
- While cooking: Always use oven gloves when handling anything hot. Use Le Creuset silicone, wood or heat-resistant plastic tools where possible. Metal utensils can be used with care but shouldn't be used harshly or scraped over the surface.
- Cleaning: Let it cool before cleaning. Wipe off any leftovers, and soak stuck-on food in warm soapy water for 15 to 20 minutes before washing. Avoid abrasive cleaners, metal scourers or stiff brushes. Dry well and store in a dry place.
- Microwave: Never use in a microwave. Cast iron products are made of metal and will damage the microwave and its electrical wiring.
- Open flame safety: Flames must be confined to the base area and never extend up around the sidewalls, which can cause burns and damage.
- Charcoal or wood fired grill use: Always place the product on a rack, never in direct contact with embers. Leave a minimum distance of 5cm between the rack and the embers.
Questions and Answers
Q: Can I use this indoors?
A: It's designed for outdoor grill and BBQ use rather than an indoor hob or oven.
Q: Is it microwave safe?
A: No, never use it in a microwave. It's made of metal and will damage the microwave and its wiring.
Q: How should I clean it day to day?
A: For everyday cleaning, water alone is best, as this helps the natural patina develop on the enamel interior. Warm soapy water is fine for first use or for soaking off stuck-on food.
Q: How close can flames be to the grill?
A: Flames must stay confined to the base area and never extend up the sidewalls, which can cause burns and damage. On a charcoal or wood fired grill, always use a rack with at least 5cm between it and the embers.
