Editorial Review:
When performance counts, turn to All-Clad LTD with its hard anodized exterior and pure aluminum core for even, energy efficient cooking. The cassoulet pan is suitable for braising and simmering, and is equally at home on top of the stove or in it.
Distinguished among All-Clad's renowned cookware collections by its stylish, charcoal black, hard-anodized aluminum exterior, the LTD 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 the exterior and an 18/10 stainless-steel interior 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 highly polished so it's stick- and corrosion-resistant. The striking exterior resists scratching, chipping, and peeling.
This shallow (3-1/4 inches deep) cassoulet pot exemplifies why All-Clad's LTD cookware is so popular among contemporary cooks. Perfect for baking a cassoulet or casserole or for cooking on the stovetop, it's beautiful enough to carry to 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. LTD cookware carries a lifetime warranty against defects and should be hand washed. --Fred Brack

Our favorite pot:
Once I got a set of pots that included a "saucier" and I fell in love with the concept of the gently sloping sides. I guess this pot is not exactly a saucier because it doesn't have a long handle. However, apart from missing the long handle, it acts like a saucier and is excellent for reducing liquids as well as fitting perfectly on the small burners on my electric stove, increasing the efficiency. The pan looks excellent. We've kept it reasonably clean with a minimum of effort. I don't mind a bit of... more info
LTD is beautiful:
The exterior of these pans might appear to be scratched when in fact, what you're seeing is whatever material rubbed against it. These marks as well as burnt on grease can easily be removed with some Comet cleanser and some very fine steel wool. (Do not, however, use this on the interior surface!) I use this method and my pans still look new.
Cooks great but spend all your free time scrubbing the exterior to keep nice looking:
I've had All Clad LTD pans for a number of years now. I usually cook several times a day almost everyday & although these pans cook beautifully and the interior looks beautiful & cleans up easily, the anodized exterior looks terrible now. I wouldn't mind so much but I have them hanging on decorative pot rack. For that reason I want to replace them with the less expensive version in stainless steel but the financial loss is killing me. I don't have room in my small kitchen to put them away. We've had... more info
