Demeyere Industry 5.49 Quarts Non-Stick Stainless Steel Round Dutch Oven

Not only does it looks stunning on the stove but it’s all around a great Dutch oven. I have a larger pot but the 5.5 is the perfect size. The cook always comes out perfect no matter what the dish is. It’s easy to clean and comes out spotless every time!

Stainless steel Dutch ovens are terrific. They can do what cast iron ovens do, just without the extra weight. If you like low slow cooking but heaviness is an issue, this is a great alternative. (Also check out the Industry 5 4-qt deep saute.) This pot cooks evenly and very well because of the quality construction, 5-ply with 2 layers of stainless steel and 3 layers of aluminum. The base of the pot stays flat, no matter how hot it gets, ensuring even cooking without hot spots. The handles stay cool while on the stove and exterior treatment keeps the pans looking like new. One note: if you like the way pans look when they are new, hand wash. They will keep that shiny quality. But these are definitely dishwasher safe.

Roasts, soups and stews will be cooked perfectly in this awesome dutch oven. It's perfect for the stovetop or oven. Demeyere sets the industry standard for high quality cookware. The Industry line would be right at home in a restaurant or home kitchen. It's constructed with 5 thick layers, including 3 layers of aluminum, one of the best heat conductors. This guarantees your pan can get screaming hot, ideal for searing and frying. Other quality features include dripless pouring rims and comfortable handles that are welded, not riveted, that will help disperse heat and is easier to keep clean.

Demeyere offers many features taht allow this line to stand out. The laser welded handles allow strong attachment to the pan without needing to have rivets on the inside of the pan. A treatment to the metal, called Silvinox, keeps the steel from darkening by removing the impurities, this imparts a pretty silver-white color to the pans that is maintained over the long haul. The ample stay cool sandblasted handles make for easy gripping and moving of the pans. Lots of features, making this line well worth the premium price.
