Matfer Bourgeat Excellence 12 1/2-inch Brasier

The Matfer Bourgeat Excellence 12 1/2-inch brasier is sized for grand-scale cooking, from braising a whole leg of lamb to simmering a cassoulet for a gathering. Its wide base gives room to brown a large cut without crowding.

The two handles are welded and watertight, and the reinforced rim pours cleanly. The matching lid is the 32 cm Excellence lid, which also fits the 13 1/2-quart sauce pot and the 19-quart stock pot.


Holiday and Batch Cooking

The 12 1/2-inch brasier is the pan for the meals that feed a table of eight or more: a braised brisket, coq au vin from two whole chickens, or a large pan of stuffed peppers baked in sauce. It is also useful for blanching and shocking vegetables in batches, since its width lets you lift them out quickly with a spider. Lift a full brasier with both handles and oven mitts; at this size it is heavy.

    Excellence lids are sized in centimeters; the last two digits of a piece’s item number give its diameter.


    Care

    • Dishwasher safe; hand washing keeps the polished finish bright.
    • Preheat on medium heat with fat in the pan before adding food, and let protein release on its own before turning it.
    • Remove heat tint or mineral spots with a stainless steel cleanser such as Bar Keepers Friend.
