Know before you buy
No, this skillet comes pre-seasoned with natural vegetable oil, so it is ready to use right out of the box. You can start cooking immediately, though the nonstick properties will continue to improve as you build up the seasoning over time.
Yes, this cast iron skillet is fully compatible with induction cooktops. Its magnetic properties make it an excellent choice for induction, as well as traditional gas, electric, oven, and campfire cooking.
To preserve the seasoning, hand-wash the skillet with warm water and a stiff brush or a non-abrasive sponge. Avoid the dishwasher and harsh detergents, and always dry it thoroughly on the stove over low heat before applying a very light coat of oil to prevent rust.
At 12 inches and weighing 8 pounds, this skillet is substantial. The helper handle is essential for safely maneuvering the pan, especially when it is full of food or being transferred between the oven and the stovetop.
No, this skillet is crafted from pure cast iron and is completely free of PFAS and PFOA. It provides a naturally non-toxic cooking surface that relies on seasoning rather than synthetic chemical coatings.
The 12-inch diameter offers a large surface area that is ideal for searing multiple proteins at once or preparing one-pan meals for a family. Its depth of 2.3 inches also provides enough capacity to prevent splatter while sautéing or shallow frying.
