A rondeau is a favorite staple in a chef’s arsenal and should be in any home cook’s as well. Sometimes called brazier or brasier, this wide, somewhat shallow pan is similar to a stock pot or a Dutch ovenbut not nearly as deep. The pan has straight sides, usually has two loop handles, and nearly always comes with a lid. Generally, it is made of stainless steel, copper, or a combination of clad metals.

Width (top)x width (base) x height?

Perhaps one is the width including the handles and the other is the base.
Then the rondeau would have 0.25 inch handles?Quote:

The diameter to the outside of the handles is ~ 14.5"
Somethings not adding up correctly, that's for sure.
Great deal for sure, though. It has more space for browning so maybe it would save a few minutes every now and then over the standard 8qt.
Interesting… the one in the eBay link says:Quote:

Since this thread popped up I'm going to give a shout out to this new pan I bought and am loving:
Le Creuset Toughened Nonstick Pro Skillets
Rare DeMeyere sale here.
This thing is badass. So far I've been unable to warp it.
Just got this 'cause I really needed a chef's pan this size, and I have to say it's really a great pan for the price (<$50):

Tramontina Gourmet line is definitely the answer. At least 90% as good as All Clad for a quarter the price.
Yes.Quote:

The extra 15% discount code listed here looks like it is still working. To check I just added the 3qt saute pan in brushed D5 to my cart and it comes to $84.99 with free shipping for a pot with a $300 MSRP. I have the D3 version of this and it is probably my favorite pan.

I can't even tell you what the cosmetic imperfection was on any of my pots. Certainly nothing that would stand out after you've used the pot half a dozen times.
this is what I've been saying now for like 5 yearsQuote:

Tramontina combo sets can be found at Costco often…

There are always BIG sets on sale so they wanted to sell me a lot of pots I didn't need so look for a smaller set
I got Zwilling ( made by Henckel ) its 3 ply nice looking stuff seems to work ok, something I noticed after buying is the lids will stand on the backs of the handles
Wow, those are some amazing deals. Solid PSA.Quote:

i got a couple screwed to the wall up high in the kitchen, hang all the stuff from SS hooks
With the big caveat that Costco stuff comes and goes and we may not be talking about the same stuff, the ones I bought had slightly different handles that were a little clunkier and I didn't like as much. The pan lip was also a little different, and FWIW they were marked as made in China vs. Brazil.
I read something on-line that pro kitchens just beat the shit out of their pots & pans so they they don't really give any shits what they are cooking in ?
any of the Jacque Pepin vids I have watched it doesnt really look like he is cooking in anything special
