Amazon.com Review

The bestseller among All-Clad's renowned cookware collections, the Stainless line provides serious and professional cooks with all the virtues that make All-Clad's worldwide reputation unsurpassed. Key to its high performance is a three-ply, bonded construction. Sandwiched between layers of stainless steel lies a thick core of pure aluminum that spreads heat evenly across the bottoms of pots and pans and all the way up the sides. The interior is 18/10 stainless steel, highly polished so it's stick-resistant as well as stain- and corrosion- resistant. The exterior is gleaming, magnetic stainless steel that works on induction as well as conventional stovetops and, with care, remains beautiful during this cookware's lifetime warranty against defects--and beyond. This shallow (3-1/4 inches deep) cassoulet pot makes clear why All-Clad's Stainless cookware is so popular. Perfect for baking a cassoulet or casserole or for cooking on the stovetop, it's beautiful enough to serve from at the table. Its capacity of 3 quarts is ample for preparing meals for four to six people. The 10-inch pot's two handles stay cool on the stovetop but won't be harmed by an oven's highest heat. Although Stainless cookware is dishwasher-safe, hand washing is recommended. --Fred Brack

A perfect addition to my All-Clad pots and pans collection. Perfect for braising, sauteeing, even making soup, or just about anything. Can make a dish for 4 people. Love the shape of this one, so cute.
Excellent buy in every way! - Reviewed on 2008-05-17

This is essentially the All-Clad stainless steel 3 quart saucier fitted with 2 short handles. The "dutch oven" sold by All-Clad is a similar configuration of the 5 1/2 quart saucier.

This is a versatile stovetop pan--wide enough for frying, deep enough for liquids, good-looking enough to carry to the table. It can also slide into the oven when needed.

It may not be big enough to do a traditional 19th century cassoulet, with large hunks of meat and a gallon or so of beans, as one poster complained, but it functions quite well as an "everyday pan" for up to 4 persons. The dimensions of 9 1/2 inches by 3 inches (plus handles) fit the 3 quart capacity into a compact shape, with a rounded bottom for easy stirring.

If you are looking for a versatile "do-it-all" pan, this is a good choice.

Disclaimer #1: I love my All-Clad pots. Love love love.
Disclaimer #2: I don't own this.

But isn't three quarts kinda small to make Cassoulet?? When I make it each fall, it fills the largest of my roasters (and even mounds over it). I have no idea how I'd get a mutton shoulder, a pork shoulder, a duck, a pound of sausage, and five (when dry) cups of beans into such a wee thing -- unless I had several of them.
Custom cookware for classic French dish - Reviewed on 2005-11-06

The Cassoulet is a classic French stew which, according to the Larousse Gastronomique is 'A dish, originally from languedoc which consists of haricot beans cooked in a stew pot with prok rinds and seasonings. A garnish of meats, which varies from region to region, and a gratin topping are added in the final stages'

This is a somewhat pricy piece of cookery for something designed to do a particular, somewhat complicated dish. I originally bought it with a gift certificate to a good cookware store because I wanted to be sure I had something both durable and distinctive. I have since found that the size and shape of the pot, aside from the superior All-Clad construction is excellent for both braises and thick gratins, two of my favorite types of dishes. It also happens to be just the right shape for whisking sauces and making baked pasta dishes and casseroles (note the similarity in name) such as macaroni and cheese. It is especially good for dishes where you want it covered for most of the cooking, with an uncovered browning step at the end.

Excellent pot, especially if you simply cannot live without every possible piece of French cookery!
