Heavy-duty Carbon Steel Frying Pans Series

Carbon steel cookware has been in use for centuries, and it comes in two different finishes: polished for visual appeal only, or preheated and therefore called black or blue steel. Both finishes, made of 99% iron and 1% carbon, will end up blackened when heated. Carbon steel also comes in different thicknesses, with a heavy gauge ensuring better heat distribution for searing and sautéing, while a thinner gauge is ideal for Cajun style cooking, browning meats, and charring vegetables under high heat. Our polished frying pans have a 3mm or 11 gauge thickness, while our black steel averages 1.5mm or 16 gauge. They are induction ready and designed to withstand high temperatures. Prior to the first use, they must be seasoned and will acquire natural non-stick properties in the process. After use, they must be kept dry to avoid rusting and can be restored with specialized products or vigorous scrubbing, followed by seasoning.

Carbon steel is not recommended for use with acidic foods, and more detailed instructions come with each pan. Both series come with a lifetime warranty.

Made of polished carbon steel, our warp-proof heavy-duty 11-gauge (3mm) thick frying pan has relatively low sides, making it ideal for sautéing, rapid frying, and searing, with a bottom diameter of 7 inches. The heavy 11-gauge construction guarantees uniform heat distribution, and the pan is both induction-ready and oven-proof. However, it is not dishwasher-safe and must be kept dry after usage. It is important to read the instructions prior to its use, and the first seasoning is needed to create natural non-stick properties.
