Product Description
The Matfer Bourgeat Tradition Plus casserole pan is a heavy-gauge stainless steel pan designed for everyday use across professional kitchen environments. Built to handle the demands of continuous service, it is compatible with all cooking surfaces including induction, making it a practical choice for kitchens running mixed or upgraded equipment.
In service, a pan of this capacity handles stocks, soups, sauces, braised dishes, and blanching tasks comfortably. The robust construction holds up under repeated heating, heavy stirring, and the kind of daily handling that lighter domestic-grade pans do not tolerate well. The reinforced non-drip pouring edge is a practical detail that reduces spillage during plating and portioning under pressure.
Key operational advantages include:
- Compatible with gas, electric, solid top, and induction hobs without adaptation
- Reinforced non-drip edge reduces spillage during service
- Stay-cool handle design improves safe handling during busy periods
- Watertight lid seal (lid sold separately) supports holding and gentle simmering
- Heavy-duty build tolerates daily commercial use and repeated cleaning cycles
The pan is suitable for dishwasher cleaning, though hand washing will extend the finish life in high-cycle environments. At just under 5kg empty, it has a solid feel without being unwieldy for kitchen staff. As with all Matfer Bourgeat cookware, build quality is consistent across the range, which is one reason it is commonly found in professional kitchens where reliability matters more than price.
This size works well for medium-output sections — comfortably serving 20 to 40 covers depending on the dish. Smaller operations running tight menus will find it versatile; higher-volume sites producing large batch quantities may find a larger capacity option better suited to their throughput.
If you are equipping a section from scratch or replacing existing cookware and want a steer on the right sizes and quantities for your volume, we are happy to talk it through.

Frequently Asked Questions
- At 12.8 litres, this pan is well suited to producing sauces, soups, or braised dishes for roughly 20 to 40 covers depending on portion size and dish type. For kitchens running higher volumes or producing large batches in a single cook, a larger capacity pan would be a more practical choice.
- Yes — the Tradition Plus range is fully induction compatible straight from the box, alongside gas, electric, and solid top surfaces. No induction disc or adapter is needed, which makes it a straightforward option for kitchens that have mixed or recently upgraded hob setups.
- The lid is sold separately — Matfer Bourgeat reference K836 is the compatible lid for this pan. It is worth ordering the correct lid at the same time, as the watertight seal is part of what makes the pan useful for holding and controlled simmering as well as open cooking.
