I received a killer late birthday gift. Wolf Gourmet sent me a gorgeous 10 piece set of their new cookware and I have had way too much fun taking them for a spin around my kitchen. Read on for my full review and be sure to enter to win the giveaway as well!
I want to start this honest review with my first impression when I saw this set in person: sexy. Yes, pots and pans can be sexy, at least to a food blogger.
I am a sucker for little stylish details when it comes to my kitchen equipment and this set is full of them. For example, the brand impressions on all the lids and the high polished stainless steel that looks more like a mirror than a pan made my heart flutter.
I wasn’t the only one who had a memorable first impression. When the package arrived, it took every ounce of my self control not to rip the box open, but I decided to let my little two have all the fun and unbox the pans. Watch and enjoy a good laugh 🙂
So which piece is my favorite one? Hmmm….that is hard because they all serve such a different purpose in the kitchen but if I had to pick one it would have to be the 11.5″ skillet. You see, every Sunday I make a pork loin roast for dinner and not some small little puny one. Six kids, remember? I’ve had many burns and close calls of dropping my finished roast because my old skillet did not have this magical little grip on the other side of the pan. When you are pulling a heavy roast in a heavy pan out of a very hot oven, that handle makes a HUGE difference!
When I was searing the above mentioned pork loin roast on my stove, I was really impressed with how evenly the skillet browned the meat and the clean release when I turned it over to brown another side. In the past, most of the deep brown magic would stick to my pan but now all that amazing flavor is where it should be, on the roast!
Since I’ve never been good at favorites, I can’t do an honest review without giving a special shout out to the 6 quart dutch oven and 3.5 quart sauce pan. These workhorses have easily been the most used of the whole set. They are the perfect size for my normal weeknight meals and as my kiddos mentioned in their video, they love a perfect popcorn pan 🙂
All 10 of these piece are completely dishwasher and oven safe to 500 degrees which is very important to me. I’ve owned pans that couldn’t go from stove top to oven and they are useless! While dishwasher safe isn’t super high on my priority list, my husband and kids would put that as priority #1 on theirs. Heaven forbid they have to wash something by hand…

I have an old recipe I haven’t made in many years that I would love to make again. I think I got it from my mom but the recipe card says ‘pork chops with cream pecan sauce also good with chicken’. I have only made it with chicken or turkey but cream, pecans, vermouth…would go with anything. I would love to make that recipe again in one of these pans.
I’d make a hearty beef stew!
With Spring here, I’m anxious to plant my garden and oh my the possibilities are endless when harvest starts. Maybe pepper jelly to store for all those pork roasts or quick appetizers. Or maybe a zucchini saute, or German green beans or…
Wow! Awesome giveaway!
I’m looking forward to your pork loin roast recipe!
I’d make chicken fettucine.
I’m always so unsure where I am suppose to
Comment. I’d cook tons of food in them!! Soup most definitely. Pork chops and potatoes… Chicken Alfredo.. I just can’t decide!
In the skillet I’d make Southern fried chicken
In the Dutch oven I’d make a big pot of vegetable beef soup
In the smaller skillet I’d make caramalized onions
In the sauce pan I’d make a delicious lemon butter sauce
In the larger sauce pan I’d make chocolate pudding
My cookware is 46 years old. I’d love something new to cook in.
Wishes for tasty dishes,
Linda
A big batch of potato bacon and cheese soup – some for now, some for freezing for later.
I’d make Brussels sprouts hash.
I would use these pans everyday. I love to cook and I have old pots and pans. These pans are just gorgeous!. Shrimp scampi. Chicken Piccata, soups, vegetables, sauces, and a whole lot more! My family and friends will be eating like royalty. And of course I will be a very happy person.
