The $29.99 Aldi Find I Use Every Day Is Back in Stock

Kick off soup season in style.

I’ve been enjoying Season 2 of With Love, Meghan on Netflix. This show has everything I love: easy recipes, fun drinks, floral arranging, crafting with friends, and a kitchen setup that is basically my entire Pinterest account come to life.

Every time Meghan and her friends start cooking, I only see the beautiful, creamy white Le Creuset cast-iron cookware. Yes, I wish I had $2,500 worth of French cookware in my kitchen, but for now, I’m content with living vicariously through Netflix. Which, coincidentally, is exactly what I do when I watch The Great British Baking Show and see a pastel rainbow of KitchenAid stand mixers.

Well, guess what? I don’t have to live in a dreamland anymore. I can walk right into an Aldi and buy myself a Le Creuset dupe for $29.99—and it even comes in the same gorgeous color as the set on Meghan’s show.

Crofton Cast-Iron Dutch Oven

• Price: $29.99 for a 6-quart Dutch oven
• Why I Love It: My Crofton Dutch oven has held up beautifully for years, and it was a fraction of the price I would've paid for a Le Creuset.

The Crofton 6-quart Cast-Iron Dutch oven is available starting today while supplies last. It comes in two colorways: a shiny gradient blue or a matte creamy white. Considering that my kitchen colors are blue and white, it is going to take great restraint not to purchase both.

That would definitely be overkill, because the truth is that I already have a Crofton Dutch oven. It's by far my most prized kitchen possession. It has been mistaken for a Le Creuset on multiple occasions, and I love telling people that it’s actually from Aldi. It also cost me a fraction of the price: Mine was $34.99, and the same size Le Creuset retails for $299.

The new Crofton Dutch oven is somehow an even better deal. It's on sale at Aldi starting today for $29.99, while a comparable Le Creuset Dutch oven is $420.

I can guarantee you that there is no reason for a Dutch oven to be that expensive. My Crofton beauty has been in constant rotation for four years, through hundreds of loaves of bread, soups, and chilis, and it shows no signs of wear. 

If you want to upgrade your kitchen gear—even aesthetically, there’s no shame in that—then it's time to head to Aldi. Fall is an excellent time to buy a new Dutch oven, especially if it’s only going to set you back $29.99. You’ll have bragging rights for years about scoring one of the best and most exclusive Aldi Finds!
