A great rectangular baker!
I got my first Le Creuset cookware in 1978. It was my college graduation week, & I was relaxing on the lawn reading the Sunday Boston Globe. I saw an ad for a Le Creuset starter set (French oven + 2 covered saucepans + skillet) for a very low price, so I decided to go for it since I was about to be out of the dorm living on my own. That purchase turned out to be one of my best investments ever, as I still use all the pieces today. I now have 3 French ovens, 5 covered saucepans, 3 skillets, 1 oval au gratin, 1 multi 2-in-1 pan with nonstick omelette cover, 1 cheese fondue set, & this rectangular baker, all in flame. These cast iron utensils are virtually indestructible, except for a few minor dings in the outer enamel. They cook very evenly, given the cast iron, making me a possibly better than average cook (they're one of my unfair advantages). My only problem with the cookware is the heavy weight, but that comes with the territory with cast iron utensils. I guess I'll have to get someone else to lift the pots when I'm old & decrepit. I know they'll outlive me!

I use the large rectangular baker a lot. I often bake or roast large chickens, turkeys, or roasts in it, most often in a cooking bag with potatoes, onions, carrots, & celery, which makes a full meal & quick cleanup. It's also good for large quantities of Mexican food such as enchiladas or tamales. Lasagnas do well in it. It's just the thing for large Lutheran casseroles, too. It goes directly from the oven to the table or buffet for serving, given its attractiveness. It is heavy, heavy, heavy, as are all Le Creuset pieces; it is actually my heaviest piece, so you may need to buff up before getting it.

Don't be put off by the high price of Le Creuset pots & pans. In the long run, they're a bargain because of their long life. I intend to pass mine down to my sons. Bon appetit!

This is an Awesome Pan!
This is one of my very favorite pans! I don't usually write reviews of the products that I use. However, I think that Le Creuset products in general are great and that this pan in particular is useful. It is one of the only pans that I have ever found that will let me roast meat in the oven and then move directly onto the stovetop to make sauces and gravy from the drippings. It cooks very evenly and cleans up very well. I would highly recommend this product!
