    No reason you couldn't as long as cooking indirect and keeping the heat below 400 degrees or so if it is a piece intended for use in an oven, I would think you would be fine. They're website says not to use it with a open flame so I've reduced my original degree recommendation.

    I don't know the details, hopefully some folks with more info than me will chime in, but I do know that Corning Ware is not what it used to be. I think the trademark was sold maybe? Anyway, The new stuff is made overseas and is not nearly as good a product as our mothers used, so be careful ;)

    Hi PulledPork

    "Care must be made to distinguish between CorningWare patterns for cookware made of Pyroceram and patterns for tableware marketed under the Corelle brand name by Corning. Making things difficult is the fact that CorningWare patterns were also used for Corelle tableware."

    OK, but what's the difference between, say 350* in the oven and 350* indirect in the BGE?

    If it works safely in one it should work safely in the other.

    I would guess that piece is at least thirty years old because I remember my Grandmother having the same blue floral design on hers.

    FYI- Corning Ware in NYS sold this name and production rights to China. The old stuff was rock solid but now the new things from China have been known to shatter or explode, due to inferior production techniques when used in microwaves, ovens etc. Just be careful with using the new items.

    I agree, I think the article is just pointing out that not all of the pieces of many patterns are for stove/oven use, as I understand it. Is all the dinnerware rated for the stove/oven?

    I believe Corning Ware intended for the oven is safe. HOWEVER, Pyrex is not.

    (Trust me, Pyrex does not hold up for use with the Egg. Don't ask me how I know!)
