Great family camping accessory!
1 year ago
I received this product for free from the REI Trailblazers sampling program in exchange for my honest review. Here goes... It is super solid, and the coating is high quality. It is too heavy to go packing with but it is great for a local camping trip and even home use. We will absolutely be using this year round and I will def take it camping when we do family camping trips. However it is super heavy, which makes it an impossible addition to a backpacking trip or any camping that requires hiking after leaving your vehicle behind- unless you are unopposed to adding at least The side handles are nice and wide, making it easy to grab over the fire. I used this at home on the gas grill, first, since the review had to be in right away. The weather hasn't lent itself to camping with unseasonable rain and crazy temp fluctuations. It was awesome on the grill, tho, and we made salmon and veggies in foil and a pizza. I didn't add pictures of the cooked food but I can if people are interested! The pan heated everything evenly and allowed for the right amount of heat and air to get in. The pizza crust came out nice and crispy (with some olive oil to coat it before grilling). We also made some roasted potatoes which you have to cut in rounds so that they don't slip through the holes. They came out really nicely- crispy on the outside and nice and steamy on the inside. I was initially concerned about the holes as I worried it would limit my ability to make one-skillet meals. However, the holes (about the size of a penny) allow you a lot of room to cook diverse dishes with a variety of meats and vegetables, if cut large enough. I am really excited to experiment more with this pan and it is def one I will use again and again. Our next experiment will be cooking over an open fire with this pan on a rod to hold it over the fire and out of the embers. As is, I love it on the grill. Pictures to follow. One of the pics is an approximation of the salmon dinner from the le creuset page because I couldn't get my camera to take a decent picture in the evening. The rest are all from tonight!

A Grilling Must-Have
1 year ago
The Le Creuset Grill Pan is the quality that you would expect from this brand. The enameled cast iron is easy to clean with just soap and water and is even dishwasher safe. The cast iron surface with holes in the bottom distributes heat evenly to insure consistent cooking. Air circulation holes are in the bottom of the pan that are just large enough to prevent food from escaping into the fire. The holes have a rounded edge making them easy to clean. The wall height and surface area of the pan allow for enough food to be comfortably cooked for up to 6 people. The pan comes in a cardboard box with a manual written in several languages. The manual includes care instructions and details of the lifetime warranty. This product does not require seasoning to maintain the finish. However, you do need to thoroughly dry it to ensure that it will not rust. The weight of the pan is typical of cast iron cookware. Consequently, this item is best used when car camping. I definitely would not want to hike with it. This pan will be a staple of not only my car camping adventures. It will be equally used on the grill at home. It would make a great gift for the avid griller in your family.

Durable & Functional Grill Basket
1 year ago
I would recommend the Le Creuset Alpine Outdoor Collection Enameled Cast Iron Square Grill Basket for car camping purposes. It works wonderfully in the most primitive of camping situations. I cooked a variety of vegetables and four burger patties to test for flavor and functionality. Pros: Durable cast-iron will last a lifetime, distributes heat well, food did not stick (used a thin layer of olive oil before placing food), food had a delicious grilled flavor. Best use: when using on old, rusty campsite grills, you can place this on top without having to clean someone else's prior mess. Cons: Very heavy, handles have no protection) and get very hot. Needs a cover to properly work in windy conditions (I used aluminum foil but it would not stay on due to wind). A "nice to have" item when camping but I wouldn't consider it an essential item.

Outstanding Le Crueset Grill Backet
4 months ago
This is a fantastic grill basket. I use this on a Green Egg for a great smokey f;avor for vegtables and also for slow cooking a pork should for several hours. I have been very happy with this grill pan. Very high quality and very study. I purchased the first one on an REI 25% off closeout. I liked the grill pan so much that I purchased a second one. I also have the Le Crueset Alpine Series cast iron pizza pan. Another excellent product. The product is high quality and heavy. Not really suitable for camping. They are expensive at $ 150 for full price, but the REI clearance helped a lot. I will use this for years and pass down to my children..

Super Delicious dinners for the WIN!!!!!
1 year ago
The pan helped make delicious dinners. Shrimp tacos one night on the grill and shrimp and sausage over a fire another. Yumm! On a side note, the cat also enjoyed sitting in the pan when it wasn’t used for cooking and knocking things off the fridge. Overall a win!

A must for seafood and vegetables
1 year ago
Awesome for vegetables and seafood. Food turned out way better than how i usually make it. Kept everything nice and seasoned and i didnt drop pieces in the grill like i usually do. The pan itself is SUPER high quality. Its very heavy and came pre seasoned. The quality makes you feel it will last a lifetime.
