Olla de Barro Frijolera sin Plomo / Lead Free Clay Bean Pot with lid Large - 6 qt6 qt

Realmente excelente y duradera, compre está olla en Gonzáles market, northgate market y la Cure como ustedes me indicaron y mis frijoles sal en deliciosos. Ahora la usaré para preparar caldos de pollo res y paila Marina chilena, pulmay y cazuela de ave, veo que los chilenos tienen ollas especiales para estos platillos y estas de barro me ayudaran a sustituir.

Great size and cooks great. Goes from stove top to table it is beautiful.

I ordered this for my daughter in New York. She loved it! It arrived safely and promptly as promised too!!

I was looking forward to my new pot. I had previously purchased the same one and given it to my daughter. This one came with a crack down the side. Not surprised because of the packaging. The box you see in the picture is the box it came in. I reached out to customer service twice but have received no response. Nearly $40 down the drain

I ordered a bean pot as a gift and it was cracked. Can I get a replacement sent?

You will not be disappointed with this quality piece of cookware. This item is exactly what I was looking for, and is a beautifully made, hand-crafted piece. The fact that it is lead-free is why I bought this! So glad I did. The customer service at Mexgrocer is the best ever!!!!! I wish more companies would take a lesson from them on how to treat customers. I would definitely recommend them simply for that reason alone. Thank you much Mexgrocer for carrying quality health-conscience products, and for treating your customers so well!!

Very well made. Will buy again highly recommend

Large enough for complete serving for family of 4.

I received this pot very quickly and it is beautiful, although the colors and design are different than what I orders. I am curing it now.

This clay bean pot is gorgeous! The first one I received was broken, but after contacting MexGrocer, they took care of me and sent a replacement. I can't wait to start using it! Great customer service MexGrocer!

Best customer service experience ever. I ordered the clay pot and unfortunately it broke so I contacted customer service and immediately was sent another one. Didn't  even have to return the broken one. I highly recommend MexGrocer. I will definitely be buying here again. 

We are happy to enjoy traditional cooking with this very nice olla.

This item arrived well packaged. Excellent condition.

Curing no problem with this one. .beans looked and tasted fantastic. .looks lovely on the stove

Liked the Olla, the decoration could have been more colorful, but overall I'm happy with it

I bought one for my sister in NM, and it arrived with 2 nicks. One was small enough for her to accept, but the other was quite large. My sister said the pot was very well packed so the nicks must have been there when they packed it, and the packer just missed them. I contacted Mexgrocer and they apologized, and sent a replacement. The 5 star rating is for the excellent customer service. I told my sister I'll wait until she makes a pot of beans before I order one. So my question to all who have posted here, and maybe have suggestions on cooking beans in this pot, send to Mexgrocer to see if they will post in a section called recipes. Thank you.

We cant wait to use our new pot

We cant wait to use our new pot

I have been looking for an inexpensive earthenware bean pot from mexico and found it at mexgrocer. It is a large, attractive pot, and my beans taste good

My Mother loves it

Made some really great tasting beans and a stew that took less time because of the wide flat bass. I have sent one to each of my for children.

Great for slow cooked beans

This pot is absolutely beautiful. However, my olla de Barro arrived cracked and unusable. I contacted customer service and they promptly sent me a replacement. Unfortunately, the second one arrived broken in 3 large pieces (the mail system doesn't seem to understand "fragile" on the shipping box). I again contacted customer service and they issued me a refund. I would love to own this olla de Barro but I don't want to attempt another shipment and have it break.

I ordered this item on a Sunday and it arrived here in Florida just 5 days later. It was very well packed, marked fragile and arrived in perfect condition. I haven't used it yet but plan to soon. I love the design and it looks like a rustic, artistic piece sitting on my stovetop. I am going to order another one for my daughter as a gift.

I read the reviews and was compelled to try this. The lid does not get hot, my green eyed honey made the beans himself. My grandmother gave him the recipe before she passed. No I gas, with a bit of garlic?! In Spanish of course. I love this website, because it helps us finds things that are almost impossible to find in Fl. The pot makes the entire house smell like Mamas. The beans have an amazing flavor. 5 stars, lid does not fit correctly, but who cares the integrity is there!!

Just what I've been looking for! Used it after I seasoned it & made some frijoles charros that turned out deeelicious!!

The best one I. Have come across in like forever I will order 1 more so I know I've got a backup one just plain awesome

I've long wanted a terracotta olla but was concerned about lead, and now that I've got this one I'm one very happy old guy. After hydrating it properly, I loaded it up right to the top and several hours later enjoyed the best beans ever. I had forgotten just how much better beans taste when cooked in a clay pot -- it's how they're supposed to be! Friends who've seen it have all commented about how attractive this olla is, and it's got a place of honor so it's always visible in the kitchen.

I wanted a clay bean pot for years. Now I'm wondering why I waited so long. This pot is lightweight. It is a perfect size cooking a good amount of beans. I've often cook 2 cups of dried beans at a time. It could easily handle more.

I purchased this to cook beans. For the curing I filled it 3/4 with water and boiled it for an hour. Have had no residue of any kind. Beans cook quicker than the crock pot on high and I really enjoy that I can regulate the heat because you place it on the stove. I also use it to store left over beans and place in fridge. To reheat I let it warm up by setting it on the counter for half an hour or so. I use very low heat to start the reheating process then raise the heat higher to bring contents to a boil. The lid fits very well, very little steam escapes. There are three little holes in the lid to help prevent boilovers.

Perfect size, very pretty, made some great beans!!

This pot is great, I have had it about two weeks and I have already made pinto and black beans with it, they turned out fabulous both times. The pot also looks great sitting on the stove between uses.

I purchased this for someone who was born in Mexico. She said it brought back so many memories. Now my daughter wants one. This was such a good purchase.

This olla brought back memories for me as my mom would use this kind of olla to make beans, i used this pot yesterday and made some beans, was so good!

I've fallen in love again with beans! Forgot how much better tasting they were compared to my old way.

Wonderful product!! I used the olla to make a fresh batch of beans and 'oh my goodness are these FANTASTIC TASTING BEANS' was the statement I received from friends/family with whom I shared them with. Thank you MexGrocer for making products such as these available!

It's been many yrs since I've used a clay pot due to the lead content. The last one I purchased (store in Denver) had so much lead that my husband refused to eat the beans. You could actually see the lead floating on top of the water. So it was so good to see that I could now purchase one from your business without lead. I love my bean pot and the beans are wonderful - remind me of the beans I always had always enjoyed. I too would be interested in a smaller pot.

Great pot! Beans turn out great!

I love this pot! It is so easy to use. The beans come out perfect every time. Easy to clean.

We bought it to prepare our New Year dinner. We needed a clay pot to cook an argentinean recipe and it worked perfect! Now I do all stews with it.

Makes the best tasting frijoles! Be sure to get some epazote (tea herb) which really adds to the flavor.

This bean pot makes the best tasting beans. not having to worry about the lead is a blessing from God

These pots cook the best beans ever---even without fat back! My daughter came for Thanksgiving and wouldn`t turn mine loose. I surprized her with one of her own! Now, we`re both happy. Thank you!

I grew up with my mom cooking her frijoles in a clay pot and I wanted to follow in her footsteps. I love my bean pot. Is there one that is just a little smaller?

Although i have not yet used it, I love the style, colors, and design. It is beautiful!! I am just waiting on my mother to get ahold of my grandmother to find out what it is that we have to use to put in the bean pot before using it for the first time. I'm not sure what it is but it is suppose to be put in before u use the pot. Anyone know what it may be called?

When I received the olla I unpacked it and was a little concerned that it felt brittle to the touch. My first impression was that this was going to be too delicate and would break easily. After I followed the curing instructions in the instructions booklet, which states to submerge the olla in warm water for an hour, the olla took on a solid and hefty feel. I was relieved. Next thing I put on a pot of pinto beans with some smoked ham hock, chorizo mexicano, and a few chiles de arbol. A few hours later - wow!! These are the beans my beloved mother served me as a kid. I was in heaven. You just can't get this taste with a crock pot (don't even go there), or a metal pot. The olla is big enough to make a large pot of beans for a large family and small enough to still be effective for a small batch for smaller families. It performed very well on my smooth cooktop. Soon I will be converting to gas and I hope it will perform even better. Highly recommended - especially if you grew up on frijoles de olla.

This makes the perfect beans. I can never make beans this good with any other pot. This pot is a must have in any kitchen.

This is the best to make cook Pinto Beans. I love my bean pot.

I have purchased three of these pots two for gifts. Love it! cooks beans really great and is a good stew pot. I would love to find one in a smaller size as there are only three of us at home so this pot is really big for us.

its great, I have been wanting to purchase on for a while, but have never found one in a box that clearly states "lead free". I have used it many times and enjoy it!!!
