The Le Creuset Enameled Cast Iron Signature Round Braiser with Glass Lid in Caribbean is the piece that turns weeknight dinners into slow-cooked masterpieces. Its wide base is built for single-layer searing, so meat browns deeply and vegetables caramelize instead of steaming. Once you add liquid, the tempered glass lid circulates steam and returns moisture to the dish, keeping braises and roasts succulent from start to finish. This 2.25 qt size is perfect for cooking for two to four people—ideal for a home cook who values craftsmanship, even heat, and cleanup that doesn't fight back.
Le Creuset's enameled cast iron is legendary for its ability to distribute heat evenly and hold it steady. That means your food cooks uniformly, and you can take the braiser from the stovetop to the oven without a second thought. The smooth enamel interior prevents sticking and won't react with acidic ingredients like tomatoes or wine.
This compact round braiser is ideal for pan-seared chicken, braised short ribs, roasted vegetables, or even shallow-frying seafood. Its generous diameter (compared to its depth) gives you ample surface area, while the low sides let steam escape for crisper results when you need them.
Use your Le Creuset braiser on gas, electric, ceramic, induction, or halogen cooktops. It's oven-safe up to 500°F (425°F with the glass lid and stainless steel knob), so you can start a dish on the stove and finish it in the oven. The glass lid makes it easy to check your food without losing heat.
Unlike traditional cast iron, the enameled surface requires no seasoning and resists staining, dulling, chipping, and cracking. It's dishwasher-safe, though hand washing is recommended to preserve the vibrant Caribbean finish. The ergonomic handles and lightweight-by-quart construction make it easier to lift and maneuver than comparable cast iron braisers.

Le Creuset has perfected enameled cast iron since 1925. The Signature braiser is a versatile addition to any kitchen—it's not just for braising. Use it as a shallow casserole, a Dutch oven for small batches, or a pan for crispy one-pan dinners.
The 2.25 qt braiser is perfect for couples or small families. It fits a 3–4 lb chicken or a handful of chops with plenty of surface area for searing. For larger gatherings, consider a 3.5 qt or larger braiser.
For best results, preheat on medium and add oil before cooking. Lower the heat once your pan is hot—the cast iron retains heat beautifully, reducing the risk of scorching. Let the braiser cool before washing.
Yes, it's oven-safe up to 500°F (425°F with the glass lid and stainless steel knob).

No—the enamel is ready to use. Unlike raw cast iron, it won't react with food and needs no seasoning.
Yes, but hand washing is recommended to keep the enamel looking its best and to avoid discoloration over time.
Caribbean is dreamy.
The Caribbean blue is so vibrant. It cooks evenly. It's a nice size.
I've been eyeing this color for a while, and it's even more gorgeous in person. The braiser is the perfect size for my rotisserie chicken recipes. The enamel is easy to clean. I love how it goes from stovetop to oven. The lid seals well. It's heavy but worth it. I've already recommended it to my friends.
Blue and beautiful.
This is a solid pot. The color is a bit brighter than I expected. But it works perfectly.
This braiser lives up to the Le Creuset name. The Caribbean color is stunning. It holds heat like a dream. I've used it for searing and braising. The glass lid is useful. It's easy to clean. I'm very pleased.
Cooks like a pro.
My wife loves this pot. The blue is so vivid. We use it for Sunday dinners.
This is a gorgeous piece, but it's very heavy. I have trouble moving it when it's full. However, the cooking results are excellent. The color makes me smile every time I use it. It heats evenly and cleans well. The glass lid is a nice feature. I would recommend it, but only if you can handle the weight.
