Pre-Seasoned Carbon Steel Skillet - Multi-Use 12 Inch

For over a century, the American company Lodge has been perfecting its construction of durable, cast-iron cookware. Now, Lodge has introduced a new line of seasoned steel skillets. Amongst them is a convenient 10-inch seasoned steel skillet, which is currently the only pre-seasoned steel pan on the market. Each skillet is pre-seasoned with natural soybean oil and is ready to use straight out of the box. The 12-gauge carbon steel construction makes it a robust and versatile piece of cookware that is suitable for use in both residential and professional kitchens, as well as outdoors.

The skillet's ability to maintain very low and very high temperatures makes it highly effective for a wide range of cooking tasks. Its high-density metal composition ensures that it does not retain odors and, if properly maintained, it is built to last a lifetime. The unique design allows the pan to heat up quickly and retain the heat needed for even cooking. The handle's angle makes it suitable for both stovetop and oven cooking, and its attachment to the skillet with three secure rivets ensures durability.

During the pre-seasoning process, you may notice oil blistering or bubbling at the southern-most point or at the end of the handle of the cookware. This is a result of the cookware passing through the electrostatic sprayer and commercial conveyer ovens at high temperatures, allowing the oil to penetrate deeply into the pores and create an easy release finish. If visible, it can be easily rubbed or flaked off with your finger, leaving a brown spot that is indicative of the varnish stage of seasoning. This spot will turn black with use.

The Lodge Carbon Steel Skillet is a go-to kitchen essential that can handle the heat from any source. Its lightweight design and long, comfortable handle make it easy to use in the kitchen, over a campfire, or on the grill. The skillet has been pre-seasoned with 100% natural vegetable oil, providing a natural, easy-release finish and preventing rust. The more the skillet is used, the better the seasoning becomes.

With unparalleled heat retention, this skillet provides edge-to-edge even cooking every time. The carbon steel interior has a smoother finish, making it ideal for sautéing vegetables, preparing fish, and more. For easy cleaning, it is recommended to hand wash with warm soapy water and a nylon scrub brush, dry completely, and rub with oil.

As a family-owned business, Lodge is deeply rooted in American values. The company has been family-owned since its founding in 1896 and remains committed to environmental responsibility and community development. All Lodge products are made in the USA with non-toxic, PFOA & PTFE free materials.
