I inherited my grandmothers dutch oven (center), it's probably 70 years old now. Still cooks up a storm!

Then I found I lived an easy drive from an outlet store and, well, yeah, that happened. :)

I use it regularly, I used to be in the Le Creuset sub on reddit, but then reddit went to hell. :(

So... any other fans out there?

I don't know how you keep yours so clean, we use ours for everything so they are always in and out the oven. Ours are all covered in hard to remove black marks.

Basically what my grandmother did forever... (that the subreddit will tell you to NEVER do!)

Comet Cleanser powder + Blue Scotch Brite pads + elbow grease. ;)

Comet is kind of hard to find now, not sure why.

Don't use green scrubbers, they will scratch. Blue scrubbers are safe.

Powdered versions of Barkeepeer's Friend will also work in place of Comet. Just takes a bit more rinsing because of the PH of Oxalic Acid.
