Le Creuset 15.5-Qt. Signature Oval Dutch Oven, Marseille

Inspired by oversized cast iron ovens dating back hundreds of years in Europe, the Goose Pot is the largest cooking vessel made by Le Creuset at 15 1/2 quarts. With its deep sidewalls and secure lid, the Goose Pot locks in heat and moisture to fully cook even the largest stuffed birds. While it may be a less popular choice for holiday gatherings than turkey or chicken, goose is actually quite rich and flavorful, covered with more fat than other roasting birds, but revealing primarily lean meat underneath. Many chefs appreciate the texture and flavor of goose fat and set it aside for other uses like frying and even preserving. This coveted ingredient also extends far beyond holiday meals into everyday cooking, storing frozen for more than one year.
