Lodge Cast Iron Round Skillet
If there ever was a cooking ware needed in a modern man’s kitchen it’s a cast iron skillet. Chefs or amateurs alike will appreciate a skillet’s ability to cook almost any kind of dish from steaks to stratas.
What this means to you: Bring on a world of superior cooking made simple with a cast iron skillet. Your meat will never taste better.
$24 @ Crate & Barrel
Tip: This skillet is pre-seasoned, but if you find yourself purchasing one that isn’t then make sure you coat that skillet in your oil of choice then bake it to a hades inducing temp.
Reasons I love Lodge Cast Iron Cookware:
Consistent temperature.
Lodge Cast Iron gets Hot and stays consistently Hot! If you like to sear foods when cooking nothing does it better then cast-iron. Try some extra large bacon wrapped scallops seared to perfection. I love the sound of fajitas served up
Old School.
Cast Iron cooking is old cooking even with all the changes in cooking
technology it remains one of the best cooking methods.
Homemade
Cast Iron cooking brings out the Home in Homemade. Make some cornbread in a Pyrex dish then
make some in a Lodge cast iron cornbread skillet.You be the judge of what taste better.
Heirloom.
Lodge Cast Iron Cookware is a generational heirloom. My grandmother gave me Lodge skillet that I remember she used to make cornbread in 30 years ago.
Character.
You could serve up a chili in a pot but when you serve it up in a Lodge Cast Iron Dutch oven it adds real character to the dish.
Wonder.
I have a cast iron skillet from the 1800 and every time I cook with it I wonder what was cooked on it some 200 years ago. I think about the early settlers coming to American. I think about early Thanks Giving meals. I think about my grandmother.
Camping.
I go camping a lot and there is nothing better then sitting around the fire slow cooking chicken gumbo in a Lodge camp Dutch overhanging over an oven fire. In the morning, I love to wake up to a cup of coffee just pored from a coffee percolator heated on an open fire. Sit around the fire and listen to the sound of bacon sizzling in my Square Lodge cast iron skillet. Camping would not be the same without my morning camping ritual with my Lodge skillet.
Care.
With most cookware, when your finished you throw it in a dishwasher and your done. Because of the seasoning ritual you do with cast iron cookware, you build a bond with your cookware. It needs you to take care if it. It becomes more then a cooking pan. It becomes part of your family “Your family dish”.
Heavy.
Yes it is. When you bring it out of the cabinet it says your serious about the quality of the meal you’re making. Any old pan won’t do. Everything must be right. Including what you’re cooking on.
Football.
I have a chicken frying pan that I take tailgating to UT football games. Everybody loves my spicy chicken wings. I fry up about 10 pounds of them at the game. In the off season when my friends come over to my house and see my fry pan we start talking football and look forward to the next game, the next tailgate party.
Collectable.
I collect baseball caps, Case Knifes, fly fishing lures, and Cast Iron cookware.
Thanks,
Don
