Boo's is not something that I've heard of before - I'll look into it. Mac Cutting Boards is a brand that I've been following for a while now. Anybody familiar with them?

If you do any baking (like pizzas for me) consider getting a reversible dough board like this:
They're about $80 and they're huge. For me, one side is for dough and the other is for cutting.

These are not "essentials", but things I complained about not having:
1. Citrus squeezer
2. Meat mallet/tenderizer
3. Immersion Blender
4. Gravy Ladle

Le Creuset dutch oven, a nice 8” chef knife, and an end grain cutting board with plenty of real estate. These 3 get used daily, and easily have more mileage than anything else in my kitchen.

The self basting nubs on the inside of the lid puts staub over the top

You don’t want lightweight in a Dutch oven. Go for at least the Lodge, unless you’ve got Le Creuset or Staub money. Not a fan, truly, of Staub simply bc I don’t like the black interiors. Too easy to scorch or burn something and not notice.

What brand of knife did you purchase?

Never heard of Mac, but I definitely second Boos. Best cutting boards I've ever owned by a mile.

Chef's knife easily. #1 utilized tool in the kitchen.

Le Cruset
Lodge would do just fine.

Agreed. Was just providing relevant information.

What would be your top 3 kitchen essentials?
Chef’s Knife (need a sharpening stone)
Carbon Steel Skillet
5 quart pot (stainless or enameled)
Plastic cutting board is fine. It’s not as nice as a good wood one, but it works and it’s cheap.

I have one, it’s just cheap and not really worth a damn. Wanting to upgrade..

Depends on what style of cooking you do. Got to have a good knife no matter what.
Feel like I only use a few things in my kitchen out of all the stuff I have

Hey! A Wusthof 6" chef's. I had a couple of Victorinox's which are great but the balance and the heft of the knife is great. Super sharp. I don't need another 8" and just wanted something smaller and nice to have around. It's become my favorite all purpose knife.
I'm not in love with Amazon, but here it is:

Le Creuset is great, Staub is very hard to beat though, I've got a few of each.
