Southerners have long loved Le Creuset for its high-quality cookware that lasts and can be passed down from generation to generation. Bringing delicious home-cooked meals to kitchens for ninety-nine years, the well-loved brand is now bringing its stoneware outdoors and just in time for outdoor dining season.

Le Creuset’s new launch, the Alpine Outdoor Collection, features three enameled cast iron cookware pieces that work great over an open flame. The brand already has a selection of grills and griddles so that you can bring the outdoor cooking experience inside, but the Alpine Outdoor Collection now makes it possible for all levels of cooks and chefs to make full-course meals over a campfire. Whether an avid camper, attending beachside bonfires or looking to enjoy backyard barbecues, this collection makes it easy to achieve home-cooked meals—outside of home.

　　 Le Creuset's Alpine Collection

Alpine Outdoor Skillet, $160

Alpine Outdoor Square Grill Basket, $160

Alpine Outdoor Pizza Pan, $200

Embossed with an Alpine outline underneath, the three pieces of handled stoneware are crafted with Le Creuset’s enameled cast iron, a tried-and-true material that has been praised for almost a century by countless cooks. The reliable stoneware retains and evenly distributes heat, so all your recipes come out perfectly cooked. Cooking over an open flame has its own set of precautions (the Alpine pieces can withstand up to 842 degrees Fahrenheit), so all of the pieces come with oversized handles for easier transfers. 

The whole collection is dishwasher safe, but for a more detailed breakdown on how to keep your Le Creuset pieces looking newer longer, check out the brand’s easy care guide. Read on to learn more about the Alpine Outdoor Collection.

　　 Alpine Outdoor Skillet

Buy on Lecreuset.com For hearty meals that’ll fill you up after a long day hiking or enjoying the lake, this outdoor skillet is the way to go. Whip up pretty much anything you would on a kitchen skillet, now just over an open flame. It’s 10 inches in diameter and has a low profile, making it small and low enough to fit on your grill—even when you close the hood—as you cook other foods. But you can also use it to sear steaks, stir-fry or saute veggies, and even make a filling toasted sandwich over the campfire. 

　　 Alpine Outdoor Square Grill Basket

Buy on Lecreuset.com The shallow stoneware basket is punctured with holes to help your fire directly cook your ingredients without having them fall through. It also keeps your ingredients in place as you cook—no more loose french fries or veggies falling into your flame. You can even cook main proteins like freshly caught shellfish or chicken wings and get a bit of char on them, too. 

　　 Alpine Outdoor Pizza Pan

Buy on Lecreuset.com What’s better than pizza night? Not much, but enjoying a freshly baked pizza under the stars definitely elevates the experience. The 14-inch diameter flat pan fits a hearty pizza, but also is the perfect surface for making pancakes, crepes, tortillas, and more. Since it’s constructed of cast-iron stoneware, it’ll give pizza a crisp crust and cook flatbreads evenly.
