Real Food on the go!
2 weeks ago
I use this skillet all the time for making real food while backpacking, summer and winter. It's lightweight, packs really well, and has a fantastic nonstick yet durable coating. I use it over a Pocket Rocket Deluxe and a Whisperlite Universal, and wouldn't be shy about putting it over coals, but you have to be aware of melting the plastic bits on the handle. The handle in general doesn't inspire confidence and certainly doesn't feel the most robust, but it has never let me down in years of use. This is a thin skillet, so you have to keep the food or moving so it doesn't develop a hotspot, but that is the tradeoff for not carrying cast iron. You'll want to carry a little bottle of oil when frying too, don't dry fry on this expecting ceramic magic. When I carry this, I ALSO carry something more pot-like for boiling water. I would not want to rely on this to boil my water, and absolutely would not use it as my sole snow melting pot for winter camping. You cannot however fry bacon in your 750mil Toaks, lol. Sauté vegetables, fry burgers, sausages, and my personal favorite: alpine cheesesteaks.

Bought this skillet to go

Bought this skillet to go in conjunction with the four person flex mess kit. The skillet fits under the smaller pot and can be all packet together. Love it. Works great. It is a bit fragile so you have to be aware not to be rough on it, but regular use pack in for back country trips it works great. (My old MSR steel frying pan and Sierra cup I used to tie to the back of my pack to make noise on my sold trips in Alaska, and other heavily populated bear country) Would not recommend doing that with this! But as far as function, it’s awesome. Light, cooks fast, even, and easy to clean. Using this over a Optimus nova stove.

Finally got to field test this skillet at Lost Maples SNA, TX. Nested well with my 2.5L ceramic pot. Cooked a steak for dinner and bacon & eggs for breakfast. Now, I can mix it up with dehydrated and fresh foods. Please make a lid so I can keep the skillet warm.

Ceramic Skillet Review

Hello, the skillet works as advertised. However, I found it to be a little small and shallow for things like boiling water and cooking pasta. I am also unsure how the red plastic switch on the handle and the bar onto which it clips will hold up long term. I just finished using it on a multi-day canoe trip in northern Québec.

Handle connection is cheap

It’s a great size however the handle is wobbly and I have serious concerns weather it will hold up over the years.

Good pan, Good Usage, but doesn't fit 2.5L Pot

I have both the Ceramic Skillet and the Ceramic 2 Pot Set, both are great gears, but they do not fit each other.... the Skillet is around 1 inch bigger than the Pot, make it fail to nest together for easy package......

Great product for cooking meat and veggies in the wild. While hunting light packable food is done great with water but when success comes cooking meat in the skillet hits the spot.

Non-stick coating is fragile

On my second camping trip a friend scorched some oil on the frying pan which completely removed a section of the non-stick coating. I had no idea this was a possibility.

The Ceramic Skillet is excellent. Nothing burns or sticks, no toxic non-stick coating that will peel off and contaminate the food, easy to clean. Highly recommend.
