Dutch ovens are great for braising, frying, searing, and stewing—what more could you want in a single piece of cookware? Our longtime favorite Dutch oven from Le Creuset does all of this, and does it well. In our tests, pork shoulder seared to golden brown perfection and was fall-apart tender after braising. Le Creuset’s enamel is darn tough, too, so this Dutch oven will last decades.
