This is a small heavy cast iron pot that is perfect for using on the grill to keep sauces warm while food cooks. I chose it over a comparable product from Lodge because the Lodge version seemed to have a small base, which would make it more susceptible to being knocked over when flipping and turning food. This pot is heavy and the base is almost as wide as the top. the handle is short but adequate so it can be picked up and moved but doesn't take up much room. I cook on a Big Green Egg so space is always at a premium. The silicone brush is nice as well but since the brush handle is plastic, I would not leave it on the pan while over the fire.
I recommend seasoning this after you buy it and before using it. Seasoning is easy. Simply coat the entire pan inside and out with crisco, then place the pot upside down on an oven rack and bake for an hour at 350. To catch the crisco that runs off, put another pan or baking sheet lined with foil on the rack below. Of course, you could also place it in your grill coated with crisco and let that heat season it for the same length of time.
Le Creuset makes a small enameled cast iron pot that could probably serve the same purpose but without a handle (and hence even less likely to be knocked over). But it was more expensive and didn't include the bonus brush. So overall, this pot was just right.

This product was not delivered as advertised. The item was not made of cast iron. It was made of think metal with a thin metal handle.
