With its secure lid, the 3.8 L Heritage stoneware covered casserole is a convenient choice for transporting dishes to parties, potlucks and picnics. Not only does the stoneware lid provide an effective moisture and heat lock for the dish, but it prevents spills and protects contents until they are ready to serve. Adding to the versatility of this classic design, it's also useful as a marinating dish for lengthy cuts of meat before grilling or roasting in the oven.
