With summer just around the corner and grilling season hotting up, Le Creuset has given us the tools to cook and serve an impressive feast with its latest Alpine Outdoor Collection.
Designed specifically for outdoor cooking, whether that's using on one of the best grills or over an open flame, it’s authentically Le Creuset but with a rugged twist.
Although not as brightly colored as the shimmering Flamme Dorée, launched as a special limited edition color in April to celebrate Le Creuset’s 100th anniversary, it still holds true to the company's high spec.
The enameled cast iron is encased in a rugged matte black enamel, and just like other Le Creuset cookware, it’s seasoned and ready to go. And, not only will it look smart on your grill, it’s stylish enough to serve up to guests.

The Alpine Collection features a classic Dutch oven, griddle, grill pan, pizza pan, grilling tool set, and more. It's still Le Creuset though, meaning you won't be bagging a bargain with this new line. Prices start at $180, as opposed to more authentically rustic outdoor cooking brands like Lodge which you can buy for around $50.
One thing I like is that Le Creuset has included every cooking essential you’ll need to make your outside cookout a success. This includes a new BBQ tool set including a Slotted Turner, Two-Pronged Fork, Tongs and Basting Brush in a handy carry case.
These are the top products I recommend from the collection to make your party go without a hitch.

Versatile cookware

Despite being designed for outdoor use, there's no reason why you can't use The Alpine Collection for indoor cooking, but do be aware that cast iron isn't compatible with induction cooking.
