If you had to buy one piece of enameled cast iron, there’s really no debate: a Dutch oven is your most versatile option. Unfortunately, the classic French brands we love are a serious investment and can cost several hundred dollars, depending on the size you choose. Thankfully, tastemaker extraordinaire Martha Stewart created an affordable Dutch oven that’s a whole lot cheaper right now during Macy’s huge Winter Clearance Sale . Originally $199.99, the 6-quart Dutch oven is a favorite with both Kitchn readers and editors, and it costs just $84.99 with code CLEAR right now.

To be clear, this is not a cheap pot by any means. Constructed from weighty cast iron and coated in glossy, non-reactive enamel, it has the temperature-retention properties necessary for maintaining heat to gently cook and braise meats and stews . If you’ve jumped on the sourdough train , you’ll be happy to know that the 6-quart pot can bake a loaf of bread and even a small chicken . Both the pot and lid are oven-proof up to 500 degrees Fahrenheit. Plus, it comes in a variety of vibrant colors that will dress up any dinner table.

If you’re looking for something a bit roomier, Martha Stewart’s 8-quart Dutch oven is also included in the Macy’s sale for $110.49 (normally $259.99), and you’d be hard-pressed to find a more affordable 4-quart Dutch oven — which is only $67.99 (normally $159.99) right now. Both sizes come in a wide range of poppy and neutral colors to help build out your own enameled cast iron collection.

Macy’s Clearance Sale runs through Jan. 18, and besides the classic Dutch ovens, includes a ton more deals on cookware and essentials from Martha Stewart’s bright and cheery kitchen collection !
