Great investment.

I seasoned it a couple times before actually using it. Bacon seemed pretty easy to cook (hardly any sticking). Eggs still stick a little (but I've only had this pan for about a month). I love the 8" skillet for single servings or desserts/breads and it's easier on my wrists (vs. the 10" skillet which is much heavier). It does require more work and maintenance owning a cast iron skillet but it's definitely worth it as a long term investment.

Too much maintenance
Blahblah67667 years ago
If you’re a minimalist or thru hiker, this takes too long to heat up and to cool off. Also impossible to wash without scratching and has to stay seasoned. Not the simplest

Great Bang for the Buck!
4 years ago
I love cooking with these pans, and I only wish Lodge would polish the cooking surface of the pans. Maybe that’s why they are so affordable. I only scrape my pans with the special Lodge scrapers, then I add coarse salt and rub the pan surface with a paper towel to remove anything left. If necessary, I lightly rinse the pan with water without scrubbing, dry it right away, and coat it with oil inside and outside to prevent any rust. We are basic cookers in this house, and all we use is 4 Lodge pans (3 deferent size skillets, and 1 flat griddle) and 4 stainless steel (2 pots/2 skillets). Every other pot is collecting dust unless we get visitors. Highly recommend these pans!

Great product.

Great size for 1or 2. Pre-seasoned so pretty much ready to use out of the box. Cast iron does take some getting used to but I highly recommend. First meal was bacon and eggs on coals from the camp fire...

Typical Lodge cast iron cookware
7 years ago
Not for back-packing without a porter ;<} But this is typical Lodge cookware, very well made, cooks well, takes a cure. Very good size, just enough larger than common small skillets, depth is also a plus. What's not to like, for car-camping, etc. (or horse-/mule-packing perhaps)?

Cast iron is my favorite cookware
4 years ago
Cast iron is hands down my favorite go to cookware for any kind of cooking. I use it for frying, baking, or even making soup. It makes the hash browns, grilled cheese or grilled tuna really crispy and taste better than other pans. I use it on the stove, oven, BBQ, toaster oven, camp trailer, and camp stove. Cast iron lasts much longer than any other kind of cookware I have ever owned. Lodge is also the best brand. I have had other cast iron from well-known chefs that were not good. Lodge is the only cast iron I will cook with now. It stays flat and doesn't warp and is good to use on a flat top stove. You cannot put cast iron in the dishwasher. I wash it by hand and dry it with a towel, on a burner or oven if I have it on.

I wanted something that would grill onions and other vegetables on my old Weber Charcoal barbecue, and this does exactly what it should. And it's reasonably priced, too. Perfect equipment for the backyard barbecue.

Permanent stove top fixture!
6 years ago
Love it! Don’t now how we lived without it for so many years. We purchased for the husband to use in his work cafeteria. But it has remained a permanent fixture on our stove top at home. I make 2 eggs in it every morning for our son. If cates for probably the beat pan to ever cook with! We have a large one as well, but the little cast iron is beat for every day use, especially heating things up, as opposed to microwaving!
