About Staub

Staub is a French maker of enameled cast-iron cookware, best known for the cocotte — the heavy, self-basting Dutch oven that has been a fixture in home and professional kitchens since 1974.

A French cast-iron benchmark

Founded in 1974 by Francis Staub in Alsace, north-eastern France, the brand built its name on a single piece: the round cocotte. Each pot is sand-cast in France and finished with a hard-wearing double-glazed enamel, with a black matte interior that needs no seasoning and a flat, spiked lid that bastes food as it cooks. The result is a pot that browns deeply, holds heat, and moves from stovetop to oven to table.

The range

Staub cast iron spans round and oval cocottes, the Essential French Oven, petite and mini pots, braisers and seasonal shapes such as the pumpkin. Sizes run from a small mini up to large roasters, with the 5.5-quart round the most popular all-purpose choice. For the full history — who founded the brand, who owns it and where it is made — see The Staub Story.
