What Customers Ask About This Product
Can I use this indoors?
It's designed for outdoor grill and BBQ use rather than an indoor hob or oven.
Is it microwave safe?
No, never use it in a microwave. It's made of metal and will damage the microwave and its wiring.
Do I need to season it before first use?
No, the matte black enamel is ready to use straight away, with no seasoning required.
How close can flames be to the casserole?
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.
In our experience...
300C is a lower ceiling than Le Creuset's other outdoor pieces on purpose. Slow cooking and braising need sustained, gentler heat rather than the very high searing temperatures of the grill pieces.
The curved lid is doing real work. That slight curve is specifically designed to help moisture circulate back down into the pot rather than escaping.
Nestable design is a genuine space saver. Being able to store it inside or alongside other Outdoor Collection pieces matters if you're building up more than one item from the range.
Matte black enamel skips a step other cast iron needs. No seasoning required means it's ready to cook in from the very first use.
Cold water is still the enemy of hot cast iron. Plunging a hot casserole into cold water risks cracking the enamel, so always let it cool for 10 to 15 minutes first.

Care & Use Instructions
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.
