BK Shallow Casserole Bourgogne Chili Red Cast Iron ø 28 cm - enamelled non-stick coating

Forget about dry stews that never quite cook through: with the BK Shallow Casserole Bourgogne Chili Red ø 28 cm, you can serve dishes that have literally had hours to become what they should be - tender, juicy, and full of flavour. Cast iron does the work. You pour a glass of wine.

This shallow casserole from the BK Bourgogne collection is not just any casserole. It's a statement in your kitchen: fiery Chili Red enamel, a shiny Stainless Steel knob, and the familiar weight of cast iron that immediately tells you this is serious material. And it is. From the stove to the oven, and then straight to the table - this casserole does it all.

Why cast iron is the best material for your stove

Cast iron is the cooking material with patience. It heats up slowly, distributes heat evenly across the entire base and walls, and - here’s the magic - retains that heat for a long time. No hot spots, no burning on one side while the other remains cold. Just consistent, enveloping heat that treats your meat, chicken, or vegetables exactly as they deserve.

The shallow version with a diameter of 28 cm gives you a large surface area to really work with. Sear your chicken beautifully. Brown your beef cubes in batches without cooling down the pan. Then slide the lid on, pop it in the oven, and let time do the work. Result? A stew that tastes like you’ve been standing over it all day - without actually having to stand over it all day.

• Even heat distribution - The thick base and walls ensure that heat spreads throughout the entire casserole. No hot spots, no burning, just even results.
• Heat retention that works for you - Cast iron retains heat so well that you can turn the heat down significantly after searing. Cook efficiently and enhance flavour at the same time.
• Large searing surface - The low rim and wide base of 28 cm give you space to sear meat in batches without everything steaming.
• From stove to oven to table - No extra oven dish needed. Lid on, oven up to 230 degrees, and then serve directly at the table in that fiery Chili Red.
• PFAS-free enamelled - The enamel is applied inside and out, rust-resistant, and free from PFAS. No hassle with seasoning, just clean and cook.

The lid that keeps your dish juicy

On the inside of the heavy cast iron lid are drip rings. Sounds technical, but the principle is simple and brilliant: steam rising from your dish condenses against the cold lid, collects at the drip rings, and drips back over your meat or vegetables like a fine rain. Continuously. Throughout the entire cooking process.

What does this mean in practice? Your stew meat never dries out. Your chicken stays juicy, even after two hours in the oven. You need to add less extra moisture because the dish self-bastes. This is the difference between a stew that is "nice" and a stew that leaves people at the table speechless. And that’s exactly the kind of moment you can create with this kind of material.

All heat sources, no exceptions

Gas, electric, ceramic, halogen, or induction: the BK Bourgogne casserole works on all heat sources. And then it simply goes into the oven, lid and all, up to 230 degrees. This makes it versatile in a way you feel every day: sear on the stove, finish in the oven, serve at the table. One pot, one dish, no fuss.

Using induction? Then you really don’t need to turn on the boost setting. Cast iron heats up slowly - that’s the point. Give it a little time, and the material does the rest. On medium heat, you’ll get further than you think.

And that dishwasher feature? Yes, the casserole can go in. But BK advises - and we do too - to wash by hand. A little warm water, a soft brush for stuck-on bits, and the enamel stays shiny longer. Never pour cold water into a hot pot, and use wooden or silicone utensils to avoid scratches. This way, this casserole will still look like new in ten years.

💡 Cookinglife Tip: Always let cast iron heat up slowly on medium heat before adding the meat. Due to the excellent heat retention, you’ll need less heat than you’re used to - even on induction, the boost setting is unnecessary. Patience at the start = perfect crust, every time.

Cooking and serving in one motion

There’s something about a casserole that’s so beautiful you don’t want to hide it away. The Chili Red colour of the Bourgogne collection is striking, warm, and full of character - just like the dishes that cook within it. Simply place the casserole on the table with a wooden trivet, lid alongside, and let everyone serve themselves. That’s serving with a wink. No extra dishes, no cooling down while serving, just enjoy while everything is still hot and juicy.

The Stainless Steel knob on the lid makes it easy to remove and looks neat. Stylish without being flashy - that’s exactly the tone of the BK Bourgogne collection.
