Le Creuset's beloved cast iron cookware takes to the great outdoors in the Alpine collection. Specially designed for cooking over open fires, this grill basket also stands up to high heat in ovens, under broilers and grills. The classic cast iron construction retains and distributes heat impeccably, and the matte black enamel resists chips, cracks and scratches. Over time the rugged finish develops a patina that enhances cooking performance. Raised loop handles make it easy to lift the perforated pan off the fire or grill while still fitting easily under hoods and lids. Once your vegetables, shrimp and scallops are grilled to perfection, the pan cleans up easily in the dishwasher. The Alpine collection makes a must-have gift for campfire cooking enthusiasts.
