Customer Reviews for Lodge® Cast Iron 12 Skillet
Lodge® Cast Iron 12 Skillet
Grandma was on to something with the timeless cast iron skillet, preferred by many chefs. Ready-to-use pre-seasoned pan gives that homespun cast iron appeal and solid performance. Renowned for its superior heat retention, cast iron also keeps its cool to serve chilled salads, desserts and cold dishes. The Perfect Outdoor Cookware Because of its extremely high heat retention, cast iron is a versatile material that can be used on almost any heat source-even over a grill or campfire. From pan-fried fish to cornbread, and pizza to bacon and eggs, cast iron skillets, griddles, pans and woks cook up an outdoor feast. This heavy-duty cookware serves up sides, too. More Lodge® available via special order. Please contact your local store. -Superior heat distribution and retention -Soy-based, kosher-certified vegetable oil coating gives a natural nonstick finish -Hand wash -Hand dry immediately after rinsing to avoid rusting -Made in USA

Fantastic Cast Iron Pan
"This is by far the most used pan we have in our house. Kept seasoned, you can use it for veggies, eggs, meats (especially to get a nice sear), pancakes, cornbread, etc. I love the size of this particular pan - it just increases the number of items you can use it for!"

Just as I'd hoped
"I've always wanted a cast iron skillet and finally broke down and bought one. Per the directions, I washed it and put a bit of oil in it when I brought it home. From the first use, it performed just as I hoped - on the stove or in the oven. Fish cooked wonderfully, as did chicken. Just be sure to get a cover for the handle so you don't burn yourself."

Just What She Wanted!!
"My niece had specifically asked for an iron skillet, as she'd lost "custody" of hers in a divorce...I shopped around and this was the best deal I found and for a high quality product and company....I was very pleased, as was she. Thank you Crate & Barrel!!!!"

Look No More
"This is the skillet to have on a number of fronts. The extra handle makes for both easier and safer handling. The pouring spout assists in draining excess liquid or oil, and allows for venting yet minimizes spillovers, if covered with a lid. I prepare a lot of stir-fry requiring even cooking at high temperatures, and have not needed a wok. And I couldn't make my crispy bacon skillet bread without cast iron. So, for versatility and reliability with extra details, this is the skillet to beat!"

Love this pan
"I have 2 other cast irom pans that I use for everything. I took my large pan to my daughters and forgot it when I traveled back home. She has been using it and loves it, so I just replaced mine and told her to keep it and enjoy it. I made the purchase on line and picked it up at the store. Everything went very smoothly. Thanks Crate & Barrel.."

Great for quick stovetop cooking
"This skillet is fantastic for making quick dinners on the stove-the flavor that comes out is much better than using just a normal frying pan. It is not too difficult to clean, just make sure you use adequate olive oil or meat with grease when cooking."

Great pan!
"This is a great pan as it works well as both a non-stick skillet and a regular skillet. I needed to streamline my kitchen pots and pans due to space, so having 1 pan that does both is great. It's also great for making skillet breads."

Fabulous Pan
"I have a 10" Le Creuset Fry Pan and when I could not get the 12" in the color I wanted, I decided to try Lodge. I believe I prefer the Lodge to my Le Creuset and not just because of the size-- even heat, minimal oil needed, and simply beautiful. I love this skillet!"

Great Christmas Present
"I bought this for a Christmas present for a new college graduate. She loves it so far and is amazed at how well food cooks in it after using junk pans in college. It is heavy so the 10" pan might be better for some people. My only complaint is that I saw it at another store for about 25% less."

They way it aught to be
"This cast iron pan is great. As I have gotten older I realize the generation before me had it right all along. I got caught up in the "teflon" phase and realized those pans cooked unevenly and the negative health consequences from using them. God knows what chemicals we are allowing in our body when we cook out of those things. Well this pan is different. The food cooks evenly and fast. I can go back to using metal utensils without the fear of scratching the coating. The 10 inch pan is perfect and is not nearly as heavy as the 12 inch pan. In fact I would recommend this pan over the larger one because it is easier to maneuver. All in all this is a great pan that should last a couple of decades."

Great pan!
"The pan I purchased is about 10 3/8 inches around (minus the handle) and two inches deep. This is the 10" pan measurement. The thing I love best about the pan is that it was pre-seasoned. I received the Lodge pan in great condition and ready to use. Keep in mind that you should never use "soap with these pans. Also, be sure to dry completely before putting it away. I like to apply a very thin coat of cooking oil before putting my pan away."

Great made in America product
"I recieved this as a gift, and I love it.
I had cast iron cookware many years ago and got rid of them as they fell out of style. I am so happy to be back to using it now. Baking things off in the oven and sauteing my mushrooms to a sizzling golden brown have been honed to perfection in my cast iron skillet."

Great skillet
"This is my first cast iron skillet and I love using it. It's heavy, but heats up evenly and is a good size. The only problem we had was then when we ordered it, we ordered it with a platter and it had completely shattered the platter during shipment. Crate and Barrel replaced the platter with no problems though."
