Lodge 12-Inch Seasoned Cast Iron Dual Handle Pan is a new spin on a classic design. Perfect for everyday cooking, from morning pancakes to roasted chicken dinners. Cast iron cookware is unparalleled in heat retention and even heating. Seasoned with oil for a natural, easy-release finish that improves with use, this pan is the right tool to sear, saute, bake, broil, braise, fry or grill. At home in the oven, on the stove, on the grill or over the campfire - plus great for induction cooktops. Easy care: hand wash, dry, rub with cooking oil. The Lodge seasoned cast iron cover (L10SC3) and tempered glass cover (GL12) fit this skillet (sold separately).
YOUR NEW GO-TO PAN: Lodge cast iron cookware is the perfect kitchen tool for beginners, home cooks and chefs. Cast iron can handle any kitchen cooktop, oven, grill, and open flame. Crafted in America with iron and oil, its naturally seasoned cooking surface creates an easy-release and improves with use.
SEASONED COOKWARE: Seasoning is simply oil baked into the iron, giving it a natural, easy-release finish and helps prevent your pan from rusting. Lodge pre-seasons all cast iron cookware with 100% natural vegetable oil: no synthetic coatings or chemicals. The more you use Lodge the better the seasoning will get!
RUST? DON’T PANIC! IT’S NOT BROKEN: When your pan arrives you may notice a spot that looks like rust. It is simply oil that has not fully carbonized. With regular use and care the spot will disappear. If you do notice rust simply scour the affected area with steel wool, wash with warm water, dry completely, and rub with vegetable oil.
COOKING VERSATILITY: Our skillets have unparalleled heat retention that gives you edge-to-edge even cooking every time you use your skillet. Cast iron cookware is slow to heat up but retains heat longer which makes cast iron ideal for pan-frying and roasting, these delicious moments are cast to last.

Title: The perfect deep dish pizza pan.
Review: Here I am adding yet another Lodge to my collection. I plan on using this for baking only so the double handles come in very handy. These skillets are sturdy and easy to maintain once they are well seasoned as well as nonstick. I look forward to many years of deep dish pizzas and biscuits from this one.

Title: Heavy Duty Cast Iron Pan
Review: The Lodge L10SKL Cast Iron Pan is a true heavyweight in the kitchen. With its impressive size, solid construction, and exceptional performance, this 12-inch cast iron pan from Lodge has quickly become a staple in my cooking arsenal.First and foremost, the quality of the Lodge L10SKL pan is outstanding. Made with premium-grade cast iron, it is built to last for generations. The pan has a sturdy and substantial feel to it, which is a testament to its durability. The black pre-seasoned finish adds to its appeal and makes it ready for immediate use right out of the box.The 12-inch size of the pan is ideal for a variety of cooking tasks. It provides ample cooking space, allowing you to prepare generous portions of food without overcrowding the pan. Whether you're searing steaks, sautéing vegetables, or baking cornbread, this pan can handle it all with ease.The heat retention properties of the Lodge L10SKL are truly remarkable. Cast iron is known for its ability to distribute and hold heat evenly, and this pan exemplifies that quality. It heats up quickly and maintains a consistent temperature throughout the cooking process, ensuring that your food cooks evenly and thoroughly.The versatility of this cast iron pan is another standout feature. It is suitable for use on all stovetops, including induction, electric, gas, and even in the oven or over a campfire. I have used it on various heat sources, and it has performed flawlessly every time. The pan's ability to withstand high heat makes it perfect for searing and achieving a beautiful caramelization on meats.The Lodge L10SKL pan's cooking surface is smooth and naturally non-stick. Over time and with proper care, the pan develops a patina that enhances its non-stick properties, making it easier to cook with and clean. The pan's depth and slightly sloping sides allow for easy tossing and stirring of ingredients without worrying about them spilling over.Maintenance of the pan is relatively simple. After each use, I recommend hand washing with minimal soap and warm water, followed by thorough drying. To maintain the seasoning and prevent rust, a light coating of oil should be applied before storing. Over time, the pan will develop a beautiful sheen and continue to improve in performance.One minor consideration with this cast iron pan is its weight. As expected with cast iron cookware, it is heavy. The weight can make it slightly cumbersome, especially when lifting and maneuvering in and out of the oven. However, the excellent cooking results and long-lasting durability of the pan more than compensate for its weight.

Title: Beautiful, quality made skillet
Review: I wanted to make fried potatoes & onions but knew it is best done in a cast iron skillet. Amazon to the rescue! In two days my irder arrived! This Lodge skillet & lid is amazing! Unlike my cast irons from past years, this has a double handle which makes it easier to hold -- for those of us who are a bit older. I washed this skillet first with a tiny dot of detergent, rinsed well & dried it then put it on top of the eye with a little heat to finish drying. I then added a tiny amount of oil, used a paper towel to spread the oil inside the skillet and on the edges (and lid). I added my oil before adding my onions & peppers, cooking ,ust until they were transparent, then add potatoes & seasonings, and cook on medium temperature til done. OMG! Just like Mom use to make them!! The fried potatoes and onions turned out great with a bit of a 'crust' around edges. Then I wanted fried apples to go with my Oatmeal (I'd made on the side.) They were so good! I scrubbed pany remaining potatoes out, wiped with a paper towel. Then added my vegan butter, let it melt and sizzle before adding sliced apples. Tonight, homemade vegan Naan! I cannot wait to use this skillet again! I love to make cornbread, pancakes, and fried foods also using cast iron. (Note: tomatoe based dishes don't work well in cast iron skillets!) Lodge packaged the product well and gave clear instructions. Foods really taste better to me when using cast iron than using the typical non-stick pan. Place your skillet on medium heat til butter sizzles, then add cornbread mixture. Place skillet in oven til bread is done. Oh my goodness the crunch you'll get in edges when it is done! Delish! Thanks Lodge for an amazing product. Btw, I also purchased the silicone holders to make it easier to pick up the lid and two more to go on the skillet handles which make it very easy to pick up the hot skillet! All in, the skillet with the lid will be a great addition to my kitchen and at a great price!

Review: The depth of the pan makes this the perfect size for a one person bacon and eggs breakfast, or a quick burger, or sautéing vegetables - the ideas are endless. The smaller size also means a lighter weight, which is easier on my hands to pick up, and handle. Another great quality product from Lodge

Review: Why do people think non-stick is safe when the chemicals that were sued for health problems are just changing their names and formulas around? This is naturally non-stick with real pre-seasoning (not painted) and cleans up with just a wipe, is large enough to do anything on the stove or oven (like a pizza that's finished under broil) and has a lifetime warranty. The handles on either side are actually better than the standard longer one - lifting a 12" iron pan by one handle is more uncomfortable than you think (especially full of food), this dual handle helps keep the weight balanced rather than a heavier one to the side, it also takes less space in the oven and has an original appearance over a typical frying pan.Lodge pans on Amazon seem to all get great discounts at some point, so this was an incredible deal at $40 for several months. There's a small chance a spot of seasoning might rub off in shipping or even in your kitchen and appear like rust. The magic of cast iron is it restores itself when seasoned again in the oven - a much better trade than ingesting teflons that leach into food, have been proven toxic and will always wear down and get scratched, no matter which celebrity chef shamelessly promotes it.Make sure you check for any defects like cracks or a surface that's too rough or uneven, pour some water in to make sure it's flat and not collecting on the edges. Cast iron can be wiped clean or gently washed with a sponge and soap, just make sure you wipe dry to avoid rusting.

Review: Wer mit Guss umgehen kann, wird diese Pfanne lieben! Ordentlich eingebrannt und nur mit heißem gereinigt wird sie vererbbar sein! Kein Ankleben, sehr sehr gute Hitzeverteilung.
