OK, I'll give you the dishwasher - any honest person will tell you that cleaning a Dutch oven is a pain in the ass from a process standpoint even if it's easy on its own. There's definitely a value to being able to abandon the pots and pans to the next morning or throwing them in the DW and forgetting about them. But cooking-wise, is there a real advantage? I won't judge if you find the cleaning advantage sufficient to justify the price premium, I promise. I just want to know if there's a pot that will improve my braised lamb over the Lodge.
