    Another great quality skillet by Lodge

    I did a lot of research before purchasing this cast iron skillet after we wasted way too much $ over the years on 'non-stick' cookware. The quality and price range of cast iron cookware varies greatly and I found in Lodge amazing quality cookware for a decent price. Well worth the investment. Cooks to perfection on the stove top, in the oven, in the grill.

    Excellent cast iron frying pan.

    Just because its cheap doesn't mean its not great. It beats cast iron skillets that are 4 to 7 times its price.

    After a single seasoning was non stick.

    I usually use it for corn bread, pizza, shallow fries and it would probably would be my go to pan if I didn't have a carbon steel pan.

    I made a small case to store my skillet in. The skillet should last for 100's of years if looked after. Follow these 7 steps as a guide. 1/ Wash the skillet using boiling water and a wooden spoon, but make sure the skillet is HOT, if not hot the cast iron will crack!! 2/ Do not place skillet in the dishwasher, or use soap or detergent, as this will ruin the pan's coating.

    3/ Do not use paper towel, use a lint free cloth.

    4/ Thoroughly dry the skillet. 5/ Apply a light coat of avocado oil to the inside and outside of the skillet. 6/ Buff to remove any excess oil.

    7/ Store the skillet in a dry place.

    Fabulous Pan
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 26 February 2026
    Brief content visible, double tap to read full content.
    Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

    This pan really is a revelation. We have various good non-stick pans but none of them could properly sear meat. This pan retains so much heat that it doesn't drop the temperature at all when you put the meat in. In fact to clean it I pour in a glass of water (after allowing it to cool after cooking) and it boils it instantly. The pan is really easy to clean. Just rub it with oil and it won't rust. Perfect steak, seared and rare. I should have bought one years ago.

    6 Wochen getestet - Ergebnis überwältigend!

    Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

    Also die Pfanne habe ich nun 6 Wochen im täglichen Einsatz. Ich habe sie NICHT neu eingebrannt. Direkt nach der Lieferung wurde die Pfanne gereinigt und allumfänglich mit billigem Discounter Olivenöl eingerieben. Am selben Tag wurden auch schon Bratkartoffel gekocht. Die wohl besten Bratkartoffel die ich jemals selbst gemacht habe. Inzwischen wurden auch schon Bolognese, Tomatensoße, Pasta Salomon, Pizzabrötchen, Pizza, Schnitzel, Gyros, Spiegeleier, Maultaschen, Würstchen, Steak, Garnelen, Reis (gebraten) und und und sowohl auf unserem Induktionsherd als auch im Umluftbackofen zubereitet. Das Ergebnis ist für mich durchweg besser als es sonstige Pfannen geschafft hätten. Ich bin rund um zufrieden und begeistert. Inzwischen habe ich den dreh raus, heize die Pfanne gut vor und habe mich auch an die reinigung nur mit Wasser&Bürste gewöhnt. Nach dem Gebrauch habe ich die Pfanne immer am gleichen Tag noch gespült, abgetrocknet und mit dem billigen Olivenöl eingerieben. Es brennt nichts an! Selbst die letzten Hähnchen Schnitzel welche ich zu lange in der Pfanne hatte waren zwar etwas angeschwärzt auf einer Seite allerdings hing die Panade nicht an der Pfanne sondern war schön Kross am Schnitzel. Inzwischen habe ich mir 2 weitere Lodge Pfannen gegönnt. Ich kann diese Produkt allen Empfehlen.

    ALLERDINGS:

    Man muss den Kopf auch zum denken benutzen und nicht nur als Hutständer. Wer sich vorher nicht über den Gebrauch von Eisenpfannen schlau macht wird bitter enttäuscht werden.

    Eisenpfannen generell:

    -Zeitnah reinigen, immer abtrocknen und direkt danach einölen

    -Gut vorheizen und vor dem Reinigen abkühlen lassen

    -Die Pfanne hält die Hitze sehr gut, benötigt aber etwas Zeit zum warm werden

    -NICHT auf höchster Stufe vorheizen

    -Pfanne ist sehr schwer

    -Pfanne sollte um Kratzer zu vermeiden nicht verschoben werden

    -Messer Gabel oder Silikon Küchenhelfer ist egal, die Pfanne ist unkaputbar

    Unterm Strich bin ich absolut begeistert. Sollte sich an meiner Meinung etwas ändern werde ich die Rezension natürlich anpassen.

    Aktuell vergebe ich mit Freuden 5 Sterne. Klare Kaufempfehlung.

    It took a while to get the handle of it, but you just can't go wrong with cast iron. I'm absolutely in love with it! I purchased the silicone gripper, which is nice to have, but I think it's difficult to pour the contents one-handed with it, and I find myself using a towel instead more often than not. I've managed to get it to be more non-stick than my old non-stick pan with a few rounds of seasoning (a slight pain in the ass) but the maintenance and repairability are simply something I wouldn't trade.

    Do note that caring for it is more involved than caring for a stainless steel pan, but I find that the sear is unmatched, and the temperature doesn't really drop when adding food, which is amazing.

    Excellente poêle ! La fonte chauffe uniformément et retient bien la chaleur, ce qui permet de cuire les aliments parfaitement et de façon homogène. Elle est très robuste et semble faite pour durer des années. J’apprécie sa polyvalence : idéale pour saisir, mijoter ou même passer au four. Avec un peu d’entretien (huile et séchage), elle reste comme neuve et développe un antiadhésif naturel au fil du temps. Un indispensable pour tous ceux qui aiment cuisiner avec qualité et précision. Je recommande sans hésiter !
