Oval Dutch Oven with Lid - 10 Quart 15 Inch

This 10 quart oval Dutch oven from MAGNAWARE is built for large batch cooking without the weight of cast iron. Cast aluminum heats fast and evenly across the full 15 inch pot, so gumbo, jambalaya, and long braises cook through evenly. The oval shape gives a whole bird or a big stew the room it needs.

Cast aluminum is the real trade off against a same size cast iron Dutch oven. The pot is noticeably lighter to lift when full, needs no seasoning after washing, and will not develop rust spots if left damp overnight. For a large batch braise, the oval shape also uses oven space more efficiently than a round pot of the same capacity.

Frequently Asked Questions

What size is this Dutch oven?
It holds 10 quarts and measures 15 inches across in an oval shape, built for large cuts of meat and big batch cooking such as gumbo, jambalaya, and braises. That oval shape gives extra room a round pot of the same capacity would not.

Is it oven safe?
Yes, this Dutch oven is oven safe up to 450 degrees Fahrenheit. That range covers searing on the stovetop, then moving the same pot straight into the oven for a slow braise, so you are not switching cookware partway through a recipe.

Does it work on induction cooktops?
Yes, it works on all stovetops, including induction, along with gas and electric coil ranges. Cast aluminum conducts heat evenly regardless of the heat source, so you get the same fast, even cooking whether you are on gas or induction.

Do I need to season it?
No, cast aluminum does not require seasoning the way cast iron does. It is ready to cook with straight out of the box, and normal washing after each use is enough to keep it performing well for years to come.

Will it rust?
No, unlike cast iron, this cast aluminum Dutch oven will not rust. That matters if the pot ever sits wet in a sink or on a drying rack for a while, since surface rust is not something you have to worry about.

What comes with it?
The pot ships with a fitted lid and two silicone handle covers, so you have heat protection at the handles ready to go without buying separate pot holders. The lid helps hold in heat and moisture during a long braise.

How do I clean it?
Hand wash it with warm soapy water for longer lasting performance. This protects the polished cast aluminum finish over years of regular use, and since the pot does not need seasoning, daily cleanup stays simpler than with bare cast iron.
