can you use in 500 degree oven

I would assume it is safe to use at that high of a temperature. Just make certain you remove the plastic lid as that is NOT oven safe.

By the way, this pan is the deepest one I could find for making lasagna in- about 4 inches deep! A very good pan for the price and not easily found in stores.

I've put it in an oven of 425-450, but never at 500. Hope this answer helps.

I absolutely love these pans. I honestly never used them in the oven, but I don't see why not. I dont think 500 is a good temp to use, but moderate should be ok-350 to say 400. Any temp under 350 should be fine.

I have never needed to take it to that high a temp. I would think you could depending on the length of time it will be in the oven at that degree. The manufacturer should be able to give you this information.

I use mine for stirring soups I make on the stovetop and making scrambled eggs all the time and have never had a problem. I can't say that I've heated them to 500 degrees, though.

The oven temp is a separate issue from the temp that will register on the device--you would never want the internal temp of your meat greater than 165, so the probe thermometer will work just fine for any food. You would not want to leave it in a 500 degree oven for an extended period...just to be safe.

I have used this in oven temps as high as 450. No problems. I don't know that 50 degrees more would cause a problem.

I cook at the 500 degrees for pizza..but when baking breads I preheat only to the temp I will be using which tends to be in the 400-450 degree range. I guess it would bepend on what you are baking.

I didn't even know not to do that. I have used it in a convection oven @ 400. it worked fine. I can't say in the future I'll remember not to use at 450. I love the pan. cleanup is a bit cumbersome because of small grates but I use this pan alot. good luck

Hi Vero! Great question. Yes they will make it in a 460F oven temperature under normal use with a couple of points to keep in mind. We tested our mats at higher temperatures than 480F which is why we felt confident rating them at a top heat resistance of 480F. That being said, if you use them as an oven liner even at a temperature lower than 460F they will become damaged because they will be too close to the heating element of most stoves. Also, if the food you are cooking on them burns (for any reason food may normally burn in the oven) the mats will be damaged even if the temperature was below 460F. I hope this answers your question!

We have not used our pan in the oven, but I think it would be fine. The only "vulnerable" part would be the handle grips and they appear to be made of silicone, which in many cooking applications is okay to 500°.

My guess is yes you can. I have had it on 425 I did not have a recipe that called for 500 degrees, I looked at the pamphlet that came with the dutch oven and it mentions so limit on cooking so I think you can. There is a customer service contact number which you may want to call. 800-497-4959. Good Luck! I love my Dutch Oven!

YES, I use mine in the oven all the time. I cook at 350* so hope this helps...

The instructions say that it is safe to use up to 500 degrees. I guess caution should be used above that temperature as it may void the warranty.

Disclaimer - I have not used it in the oven. The handles are have a rubber or possibly silicone coating. Best move is to check with Calphalon to see what they recommend. For oven use I would look for a pan with an all metal handle. Calphalon marks it as oven safe to 400F http://store.calphalon.com/simply-calphalon-nonstick-12-in-everyday-pan/298884
