Kitchen Aid Cookware: Lodge Logic Pre-Seasoned 10-1/2-Inch Cast-Iron Square Skillet Review

Forget about your teflon pans.Sure, they are easier to clean, but this is a REAL PAN!It weighs enough to use as a deadly weapon, in case you have ever wanted to chase somebody with a frying pan.Aside from its weight, there is something great about cooking in this pan that is hard to describe.I imagined my grandmother making bacon and eggs in a pan like this.Like an old shoe, this pan gets better every time you use it.It heats up slowly and evenly, and I have a hard time burning anything in this pan.I use it both on the stovetop and on the extra side burner on our gas grill.Like the instructions say, you clean it only with hot water and a stiff brush--no soap or dishwasher.That would defeat the purpose of a cast iron pan, which is intended to be "seasoned" by the foods you cook in it.After cleaning with hot water, it is important to dry it completely and either spray or rub it with cooking oil (or olive oil) to keep it from rusting.We store ours in the oven, since the oily surface could transfer to those wimpy pots and pans hiding in your cabinets.If your husband doesn't like to cook, buy one of these.He will feel like a MAN cooking with one of these babies.I might also add that the price is incredibly cheap, especially considering that we will be using this pan long after those teflon pans end up in the donation box.This is the kind of pan you use for 10-20 years until your kids are so embarrassed by it that they threaten to throw it away.
