Editorial Guidelines Updated on October 31, 2023 09:51AM EDT Photo: Courtesy of Crate & Barrel, Williams-Sonoma, Neiman Marcus Using beautiful oven-to-table cookware has to be one of our favorite holiday tricks. On the prep side, these pieces are pure function; they're built to work hard and promote even cooking. And when it comes to serving, there's no need to transfer your side or main dish to a pretty serving plate, risking spills and a sloppy presentation. Even better? There's less to wash and dry come clean up. Many of the editor-approved oven-to-table cookware vessels below go the extra mile—they are refrigerator, freezer, and microwave-safe so that you can save and reheat your favorite parts of holiday dinner just as easily. We've chosen ceramic, carbon steel, copper, enameled cast iron, and porcelain pieces in bright and cheerful colors, as well as some extra festive options. If you're bringing them out of the kitchen and onto the table, they might as well hit that holiday spirit element, too. 11 Festive Serving Platters You'll Use for Every Holiday Meal 01 of 14 Le Creuset Noel Mini Cocotte with Star Knob, 24-Oz.

Its ivory porcelain construction is embellished with the brand's iconic holly and berries motif and is oven, dishwasher, and microwave-safe. $30 at Amazon 09 of 14 Dansk Dansk Kobenstyle Buffet Server Courtesy of Amazon Multipurpose is this mod vessel's middle name: You can use Dansk's oven-to-table server to cook in the oven or on the stovetop, then set it out as part of your buffet. People have been collecting Dansk cookware for decades, and the pieces still meet the same high-quality standards. You do need to wash this piece by hand, but the triple-coated enamel helps food slide off without much fuss. We love its signature '60s style—and in chili red, it'll cheer you up even when it's just sitting on the shelf. $165 at Amazon 10 of 14 Le Creuset Heritage Square Baker Courtesy of Le Creuset There's a shade of this unbeatable oven-to-table baker to suit any tabletop décor, from this elegant green to classic bold red to creamy, neutral nutmeg. We love that you can bake pretty much anything in it, too, from green bean casserole or sweet potatoes to brownies or cheesecake bars for dessert. The glazed stoneware isn't just for looks: It resists cracks and crazing at temperatures ranging from -9 degrees Fahrenheit to 500 degrees Fahrenheit so that you can chill desserts in the freezer or broil for a browned top. $112 at Lecreuset.com 11 of 14 Smithey Hand Forged Carbon-Steel Oval Roasting Pan Courtesy of Food52 This oven-to-table roasting pan from Charleston, S.C.-based Smithey Ironware Co. has a hand-hammered, bronzed finish; it can stylishly serve your perfectly browned roast chicken or a piece of slow-cooked salmon. Even a simple dish of roasted vegetables feels fancier when presented in this oval roaster. Plus, its design actually helps you get those delicious results: The low sides allow for more airflow, which encourages a crisp finish. $285 at Food52 12 of 14 Made In Baking Slab Courtesy of Made In A baking slab might be the best piece of oven-to-table cookware you've never heard of. Made In's hybrid of a cookie sheet and baking dish can do everything those pieces can individually, only better. That's in no small part thanks to its designer, legendary chef Nancy Silverton of the Mozza Restaurant Group in Los Angeles. Use it for slab pies, naturally, but lean on it to bake and serve focaccia, sheet cakes, brownies, or even chocolate bark—anything you'd make in a 15-by-10-inch pan. The stunning French porcelain can go in the oven up to 650 degrees Fahrenheit (yes, that's higher than enameled cast iron) and is dishwasher and freezer-safe. $109 at Madeincookware.com 13 of 14 Ruffoni Opus Cupra Gratin Pan Courtesy of Williams-Sonoma Handmade in Italy of solid copper and lined with high-quality stainless steel, this gleaming copper gratin pan is ready for baking, roasting, and serving—and in the off-season, simply admiring. The delicate hand-forged leaf accents on the silver-plated handles and finial make it especially fitting for your holiday table. Add it to your collection this year, then watch as a patina only enriches it every time you host. $790 at Williams-Sonoma 14 of 14 Coton Colors Signature White Ruffle Pie Dish Courtesy of Neiman Marcus Everyone looks forward to your chocolate caramel cream pie. This year, give them what they want, but with a surprise when you serve it in this eye-catching vessel with oversized ruffles. Handmade in Florida, this 12-inch pie dish is visually dynamic despite its crisp white simplicity. We love that you can pop it in the microwave when you need to warm a dessert and also deposit it straight into the dishwasher when it's time to clean up. $60 at Neiman Marcus Was this page helpful?
