I read the review in Cook's Illustrated and would love to buy it but cannot find it anywhere on the internet or in a Target store near me.

Not worth the trouble if you ask me. Save up and go for a Staub. Wed Dec 06 15:35:51 -0800 2006 2074822 42270 HaagenDazs 2 2517093 Exactly what I'm doing, HaagenDazs! I've got a kitchen full of LC, love it and use it all the time, but I got a look at the new grey color Staub is releasing this summer and it's the first piece of theirs that has actually turned my head, so I'm gonna get it! Thu Apr 26 08:45:41 -0700 2007 2074928 81731 foodstorm 1 2075362 I saw a 4.5 quart enameled cast iron dutch oven at Target the other day. Don't know if it was Chefmate, but it seems likely, as it was $40. Wed Dec 06 17:40:02 -0800 2006 2074822 14230 heatherkay 2 2075489 Really? Where was this? I checked out a Target in Virginia two weeks ago without any luck. Wed Dec 06 18:08:36 -0800 2006 2075362 38500 caphill2320 3 2075744 This was about a week ago (or less) at my Target in Kansas City. Wed Dec 06 19:08:13 -0800 2006 2075489 14230 heatherkay 1 2076183 I found this pot, thought that it had been mismarked, looked for telltale defects, SOMETHING to explain why this beautiful, enameled cast iron pot just cost $40. I bought it at Target, - they had two. Went back to buy another one after I had used the first, - incredible gift. I bought a second. Since then I've looked regularly (I'd buy more!)but haven't seen them. What a fluke. Just when Batali's came out at quadruple the price! Wed Dec 06 20:51:51 -0800 2006 2074822 58143 imok 2 2076692 I've got a couple of the same from Target (same deal...had to go back to get a second, and after that they disappeared). But...and I hate to say this, as LC is just waaay out of my budget...the Target pots have stained terribly, and show some crazing in the enameling. No, I don't subject them to heat that is too high. No I haven't shocked them temp-wise. Yes, I have always handled them carefully. Is there a great difference in the enameling process that the lower-priced pots don't share with the LC? Wed Dec 06 22:57:01 -0800 2006 2076183 49525 cayjohan 3 2082348 e Cruesets stain as well. Most cooking stains can be prevented with proper cleaning but for stains, you can soak the pot for several hours in a bleach bath - 1 tsp bleach per pint of water. Repeat for stubborn stains. Fri Dec 08 18:54:02 -0800 2006 2076692 58583 angee418 1 2081360 The Target here (Bloomington, IN) has had them in stock ever since they came out. Have you spoken with a manager at your Target? They can probably get one for you. Fri Dec 08 13:33:03 -0800 2006 2074822 11995 pikawicca 1 2082327 I'm having the same problem. I've been looking all over since I got my Cook's Illustrated last week and can't find it at the Targets around here and they don't have it on their website either. :( Fri Dec 08 18:51:13 -0800 2006 2074822 58583 angee418 1 2082409 I bought my beautiful Mario Batali 6qt enameled cast iron stock pot for 59.00 on Amazon.com. This is one of many pots and pans that I've purchased on Amazon that say, "used". They're definitely not used...maybe a slight swirl in the finish or some kind of imperfection not really visible to the naked eye. I definitely recommend the Batali Enameled Cast Iron. I love my hand-me-down 40+ year old LeCreuset 10qt stock pot that's still going...even if the finish is wearing on the bottom. LeCreuset is just to expensive. I spend more on my professional grade fry pans, knives, etc. Fri Dec 08 19:06:59 -0800 2006 2074822 13223 amoncada 1 2082841 I just bought mine yesterday at the Target in Serramonte (west side of 280)...they only had 2... a beautiful deep red color... They were NOT with the pots (go figure!) but with the ceramic casserole dishes...weird...this may be just a peculiarity of this store...I bought it for the NYTimes bread...I hated putting my beautiful All Clad in a 500 degree oven over and over...I have a bread rising right now, and will be inaugurating the new pot in a couple of hours...I'll report back on its' effectiveness! Fri Dec 08 20:56:17 -0800 2006 2074822 10485 ChowFun_derek 2 2088360 That's exactly what I wanted it for, so do tell, ChowFun_derek, how it turned out! Mon Dec 11 09:52:44 -0800 2006 2082841 39904 Bananna A. 3 2089260 It worked quite well...I covered the handle with 2 layers of aluminum foil and all seemed well, but if I have to screw it off and stuff the hole with foil, that would be no problem...It looks really good too...I don't know whether there are other colors, but the deep cherry red is very warming to see! Mon Dec 11 18:01:22 -0800 2006 2088360 10485 ChowFun_derek 2 2114197 Talk to me about the N.Y. Times bread. I love making homemade bread.

No-Knead Bread Adapted from Jim Lahey, Sullivan Street Bakery Time: About 1 1/2 hours plus 14 to 20 hours' rising 3 cups all-purpose or bread flour, more for dusting 1/4 teaspoon instant yeast 1 1/4 teaspoons salt Cornmeal or wheat bran as needed. 1. In a large bowl combine flour, yeast and salt. Add 1 5/8 cups water, and stir until blended; dough will be shaggy and sticky. Cover bowl with plastic wrap. Let dough rest at least 12 hours, preferably about 18, at warm room temperature, about 70 degrees. 2. Dough is ready when its surface is dotted with bubbles. Lightly flour a work surface and place dough on it; sprinkle it with a little more flour and fold it over on itself once or twice. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and let rest about 15 minutes. 3. Using just enough flour to keep dough from sticking to work surface or to your fingers, gently and quickly shape dough into a ball. Generously coat a cotton towel (not terry cloth) with flour, wheat bran or cornmeal; put dough seam side down on towel and dust with more flour, bran or cornmeal. Cover with another cotton towel and let rise for about 2 hours. When it is ready, dough will be more than double in size and will not readily spring back when poked with a finger. 4. At least a half-hour before dough is ready, heat oven to 450 degrees. Put a 6- to 8-quart heavy covered pot (cast iron, enamel, Pyrex or ceramic) in oven as it heats. When dough is ready, carefully remove pot from oven. Slide your hand under towel and turn dough over into pot, seam side up; it may look like a mess, but that is O.K. Shake pan once or twice if dough is unevenly distributed; it will straighten out as it bakes. Cover with lid and bake 30 minutes, then remove lid and bake another 15 to 30 minutes, until loaf is beautifully browned. Cool on a rack. Wed Dec 20 00:41:12 -0800 2006 2114197 10485 ChowFun_derek 1 2089106 Me too!! I might have to give the manager of my local Target a call and get to the bottom of this. Mon Dec 11 17:20:41 -0800 2006 2074822 38500 caphill2320 1 2096090 YES!!! I found one! I am headed over there to pick it up and cannot wait to get home tonight and start preparing to make the Bittman bread. A tip: I read on the Cook's Illustrated boards that the pot will only be available through January of 2007, but the DCPI number is 070/02/0962, which is how they located the one I am getting. Also, has anyone who has made the Bittman bread and used this pot tried removing the handles or wrapping in foil? I heard that they are only ovenproof to 350-400 degrees. Wed Dec 13 16:25:23 -0800 2006 2074822 38500 caphill2320 2 2096869 I wrapped it in 2 layers of crinkly foil...but it unscrews really easily....if you prefer that route Wed Dec 13 19:35:12 -0800 2006 2096090 10485 ChowFun_derek 1 2117580 If you're looking for the ChefMate Dutch Oven supposedly at Target, and recommended highly in Cook's Illustrated, -- Good luck! Here's how I found it: Call Target's Corporate Customer Service Number -- 800.591.3869 -- and give them the UPC number, 070 020 962, which was posted earlier by Caphill2320 (THANKS!) and your zip code. They'll let you know which stores within 100 miles are carrying it. Only one within 100 miles of Milwaukee had it. And I got the last one they had. And, they don't know if they'll get any more. It's apparently only supposed to be available through January anyway. Good luck! Kathy Wed Dec 20 21:34:08 -0800 2006 2074822 61050 kathykeen 2 3157745 Kathy, Would you happen to know the DPCI or ASIN #? I have emailed the company and called the customer service number and they tell me that the UPC number is not enough. Thanks for your help! Tue Nov 27 04:06:24 -0800 2007 2117580 145876 dcomer 1 2117850 I asked for this pot at our Target in suburban Brentwood//Richmond Heights, MO on Sunday morning. The saleswoman in housewares chuckled and replied that the store has been getting "lots of phone calls from people looking for that pot". She told me that she expected to be carrying the pot after Christmas. I'll report if it ever arrives. In the meantime, for Chanukah, my husband gave me a 4 qt. Cuisinart pot that is oven-proof to 500 deg. (Bed, Bath and Beyond) p.j. Wed Dec 20 22:54:30 -0800 2006 2074822 13038 p.j. 1 2123830 I have been checking at Target stores for the emaneled castiron casserole reviewed in Cooking Illustrated. I have tried to find it by searching the Target catalog online to no avail. I'd love to know if anyone has had any luck. I wanted to give one as a present for Christmas. Sat Dec 23 00:47:27 -0800 2006 2074822 61496 njarett 1 2130432 Just saw two in the Target in Nashua NH - the one on 101A. Both red - I almost bought one, but damn it is heavy so I passed.! I'g gladly pick one up for someone, but I think the shipping would be ridiculus due to the weight. Wed Dec 27 03:04:29 -0800 2006 2074822 14620 hummingbird 1 2131968 Thank whoever put the telephone number for Target and the product number for the enameled cast iron pot on the bulletin board. I found the pot and bought one. Beautiful and yes, heavy. Wed Dec 27 20:38:10 -0800 2006 2074822 61496 njarett 1 2136114 This is a great pot! I've had it for over a year, use it very often, even for the no-knead bread, and it's performed like a champ! n cracks, and any staining has cleaned up with bleach as mentioned above. Definitely worth the search! Fri Dec 29 05:39:42 -0800 2006 2074822 12513 Divamac 2 2137147 Thanks for the info Divamac...what is your process vis a vis "the knob" when you make the no knead bread? Removal, ...cover with foil????? Fri Dec 29 17:39:06 -0800 2006 2136114 10485 ChowFun_derek 3 2137633 I remove it and plug the hole with foil. It makes it a little harder to get the piping hot lid on and off the pot, but my grippy silicone hotpads work well grabbing the lid. Fri Dec 29 20:13:23 -0800 2006 2137147 12513 Divamac 1 2152620 Thanks to all on this post I was FINALLY able to find this pot in the Los Angeles area. One tip if you've checked with Target and they tell you there are pots at a certain store and you find none on the shelves, be sure to ask someone to check in the back. They had 4 in the back of the last store I was told had one in this area. While I was waiting I also stumbed across a cast iron dutch oven for 24.99 and advertised that it was already seasoned. I went with the one written about in the Cook's article. As far as I'm concerned that one article confirmed me subscribing for life. And now one more question, does this pot need to be seasoned?

Thu Jan 04 18:36:37 -0800 2007 2152632 10485 ChowFun_derek 1 2184971 I tried the corporate number trick, after trying a limited local store search. Certainly none available within 100, or even 200, miles of the Portland OR area. Anyone hear if Target plans to restock these things? (If they do, I bet we can expect a price increase). Sat Jan 13 15:53:50 -0800 2007 2074822 66604 frankdrebin 2 2185746 I just managed to find one at the Mall 205 Target store a few days ago. I'd called several area stores a few weeks ago with no luck. A couple stores suggested calling back to check periodically because they get shipments in all the time, and their computers seemed to indicate the item could show up. I happened to call the 205 store the other day and they had one. So, if you keep checking with local stores, maybe you'll find one. Good luck!! Sat Jan 13 20:38:16 -0800 2007 2184971 65564 bivalvelovr 3 2192316 I couldn't find one within 200 miles of KC, but I called my sister and had her pick me up the last 2 in Oklahoma. I only need one.

Fri Jan 26 09:24:57 -0800 2007 2192316 14230 heatherkay 1 2195983 I have been calling the Target 1-800 number for a few weeks now, and finally today they said they had a few of the Chefmate Dutch ovens at the Target store that is less than a mile from me. I called the store, put one on hold, and immediately hopped in the car to go pick it up. They had 3 more in the store, so if anyone is in the Columbus, OH area, go check out the store on Olentangy River Rd. The pot looks really nice, and I can't wait to use it! Good luck to everyone else who is still looking. Keep trying, and you will find one. Wed Jan 17 00:17:14 -0800 2007 2074822 67353 jseipel 2 2236298 I just ordered it online. For those of you that don't live with in a reasonable distance to a store that has them, you can do a search at target.com under the UCP number 070020962 (no spaces). The shipping is a little spendy, but it is still a bargain compared to what one would pay for the LC or Batali version.

Noticed this thread and wanted to point out that Target actually said the pan would be in stores throughout 2007, not just January. It reappeared on target.com briefly, and sold out, but people are still finding them in stores. You do have to have that DPCI number, 070/02/0962 -- call the store and ask for Guest Services and give them the number. Good luck! Mon Feb 05 12:58:38 -0800 2007 2074822 71932 lmcmanus 1 2262869 I'm so glad to hear so many people have tried this pot out. I read the Cook's Illustrated review and was bummed b/c I've seen that pot at Target but assumed it wasn't as good as my 5.5 quart LC that I bought less than a year ago (which I'm in love with). I was like, darn I could have had the same quality for a fraction of the price! I might pick one up, b/c it can't hurt to have two. Glad to hear it performs well! Mon Feb 05 16:48:30 -0800 2007 2074822 45912 silverlakelisa 1 2312660 SCORE! Just stumbled across the Pot in Portland, OR (Mall 205). Only one on the shelf. I'd given up, but just happen to check out of habit. Looks beautiful, can't wait to make a pot roast. Don't give up hope.... Tue Feb 20 19:15:34 -0800 2007 2074822 66604 frankdrebin 2 2327882 I had the same experience as frankdrebin. I too stumbled upon the pot while shopping in my local Target for other items. I was about to purchase one of the LeCreseut french ovens when I found it. I am so pleased. Sun Feb 25 12:00:51 -0800 2007 2312660 68159 orchidophile 1 2333381 Purchased one about 4 months ago at an Indianapolis area Target store and noticed last week they are out. I'm thrilled with mine and I use it more than I expected. This was a test - I wasn't about to spend what LC was charging, so I bought the next best thing just to see if I would like it and I haven't had a bit of trouble. I make sure I keep the oven temp at 350 or below as recommended and the bleach bath trick works wonders. Tue Feb 27 07:21:16 -0800 2007 2074822 66016 Spoonula 2 2337397 I have one also...it did not come with "instructions"...what exactly do you mean by keeping it as 350 degrees as "recommended"..by whom? I use mine at 450 to 500 degrees for No knead bread (although I have put a brass knob I bought in the hardware store in place of the plastic one included.) It seems to work fine...I also used it at 350 degrees for a pot roast, with beautiful results.... and I really like the shade of red! ( do they only come in red?) anyway it is not "orangey-red" which my aesthetic sense appreciates!

Tue Mar 06 10:12:04 -0800 2007 2074822 80319 lost_boy 1 2376862 so they do exist... just picked up a 5qt. cast iron casserole at target (aka. the best budget dutch oven rated by cook's illustrated) last weekend. It was the last one on the shelf and it's called 4.5 qt. cast iron casserole in red by chefmate. Pricing is $40. It's in red outside, white inside. Nob is heat-resisitent to 350F. I called the store before I went there, and also guest services dept. with the product code. No luck, store manager said the product was discontinued, and would not be in stock ever again. The guest service dept. (a guy from India) said it was out of stock across Ohio. The customer service guy was funny, he picked up the phone and said 'let's get started, what's your name?'... and your mailing address? Haven't got the chance to test the pot yet, look forward to it.

I live in Avon and really want to get one but I'm afraid it's too late since they were only carrying them through January. Thanks! Tue Mar 27 10:15:44 -0700 2007 2394674 86332 indycook 3 2462665 indycook - I got mine in Plainfield and noticed last week they no longer carried them. if you look at Walmart - I noticed they have a 3 qt. Dutch (in a hideous green color...) that looks similar but not the quality of the Target brand.

Tue Jun 12 16:50:22 -0700 2007 2547200 54245 bostonhound 1 2771474 I looked at this pot Thursday night and put it back because I didn't know what the quality would be like. Friday morning at work I googled it and found everybody raving and searching for it! So I went back last night and bought it. Today I cooked a spicy chicken dish I found on the web and it worked very well. I was pleased with it. I bought a nice looking little knob to replace the handle. I just need to get the right size screw. Overall I think it's a steal for $40. My store (Gastonia, NC) had two on the shelf. Both red.

Picked three up and called all of my friends. They no longer carry it on shelves, sadly. I think my griddle cost more. Mon Jul 23 00:25:17 -0700 2007 2074822 88192 holy chow 1 2784486 I was just in the market for a new Dutch oven in order to make a sweet potato soup. (I lost my blue LeCrueset in the divorce. *weep*) Anyway, I, too, stumbled onto an article touting the Chefmate, so I scoured the local Targets and they are still available at TWO of my local Targets here in Chattanooga, Tennessee! Wow! Wed Jul 25 23:42:50 -0700 2007 2074822 114448 torch32 2 2903896 I have been shopping for a Dutch oven. I almost bought the Staub one the other night, but decided to comparison shop. I stumbled onto the Chefmate at my Target, and couldn't believe something that costs $40 could be decent. I priced LC's at Home goods -- still $89 -- and full-priced LCs today at my gourmet store -- $189. So do you think I'm safe getting the Chefmate? There are at least four in stock, so I don't have to rush, but I am itching to use it.

It will pull up some CD but right above that, it says "don't see what you're looking for?" and a link. If you click on the link, it takes you right to the dutch oven and then you can punch in your zip code to find the closest stores to you which carry it. I just bought one in the Target on City Line Avenue in Philadelphia. (There were 2 more on the shelf) I can't wait to use it! Mon Sep 03 12:48:28 -0700 2007 2074822 88179 LilBigEater 2 2949913 I can attest. This works. Did it today. Just like LilBigEater says - some CD comes up, click the link above and put in your zip code. Found them all over Tampa Bay area and bought one on my way home. On sale for $35.99 even.

Mon Sep 17 23:25:47 -0700 2007 2906782 41712 Tru 2 3075778 I called today and was told that this item is on clearance and is no longer available. I then called target.com and was told that there aren't any in stock, but she doesn't know if it is temporarily or permanently unavailable. Has anyone seen one lately? Mon Oct 29 06:35:48 -0700 2007 2906782 61733 Linda513 3 3078474 It was a month ago for me. My parents in Kansas (I'm in NY) bought the last one in stock from their local Target store for me (thanks to the information in this thread, especially the instructions from LilBigEater) on September 26th. I think it might have been marked down or on clearnace, as (with tax) it was $38 and change. Mon Oct 29 19:23:00 -0700 2007 3075778 29608 Neuromancer 1 3159674 I know that some of you have been very lucky in finding this item. I have been searching for some time here in Tallahassee, Fl and to no avail. I contacted the customer service number and emailed Target, they could not assist me without a ASIN or DPCI #. If anyone still has the original box and can give me either of these I would be so thankful. Tue Nov 27 15:40:23 -0800 2007 2074822 145876 dcomer 1 3160078 Cooks Illustrated has now rated this one as a best buy. Tramontina 6.5 Quart Cast Iron Dutch Oven, which you can buy online at WalMart for $38. It's in a great shade of green. I have their stainless cookware, and love it! Tue Nov 27 17:56:11 -0800 2007 2074822 115579 Mother of four 1 3171665 Walmart carries this dutch oven... http://www.walmart.com/search/search-ng.do?search_constraint=0&search_query=Tramontina+6.5-quart+cast+iron&ic=24_0&Continue.x=11&Continue.y=8 Sat Dec 01 19:20:48 -0800 2007 2074822 147114 Mcollector 2 3175654 Thanks for the tip - I just bought a 3.5 quart dutch oven (no-knead bread will work great in this!) for $29!!!! I knew Wal-Mart was good for something. Hope it works! Mon Dec 03 11:38:49 -0800 2007 3171665 51590 Allison L. 1 3191144 If you have a Marshall's nearby - they have several different types of dutch ovens and several under $40 - nice quality - unfortunately i don't remember the name.... Sat Dec 08 14:57:11 -0800 2007 2074822 66016 Spoonula 1 3254667 I have been trying to find this too - Walmart despite the website saying several stores in my area havd them, did not have any. I called the manufacturer, Tramontina USA and they said that Walmart(and Target) would continue to carry them and that stores should begin to get them in after the holidays. If you can't wait, you can buy it directly from them for $74.00+shipping. Wed Jan 02 15:07:59 -0800 2008 2074822 154190 1gardenmom 2 3255503 The 6.5 qt. Tramontina's are beautiful... I'm seeing them now in place of the other Target enameled 5.5 dutch oven that was $40.00... The ones Cooks Illustrated always listed as a Best Buy... These Tramontina's were $59.99 and looked totally worth it! Wed Jan 02 19:26:20 -0800 2008 3254667 10783 Mild Bill 3 3262262 I can not find a 6.5 tramontina. Seems you can not even order from Walmarts anymore either. I tried. They are not in any of the stores in a 20 miles radius of where I live. Too bad, because it is a nice price. Fri Jan 04 16:26:57 -0800 2008 3255503 140153 Tinker 4 3271822 In the past month I've seen them at two Target stores in Tampa...
