In the labs, we put the carbon steel pans through the same tests as our cast-iron pans: heating evenness, baking, and browning. You have to keep carbon steel pans seasoned, like cast iron, but if you do, they soon develop a smooth patina that makes a pan as slick as nonstick, giving you even more cooking possibilities.

Cast Iron Construction: Dutch ovens are crafted from heavy-duty cast iron, known for its excellent heat retention and distribution. This allows for even cooking and makes them suitable for a wide range of cooking methods, including braising, roasting, baking, and stewing.
