For over 100 years Lodge has been dedicated to manufacturing quality cookware, that can be passed down from one generation to the next. From summertime campouts to Sunday night dinners, Lodge is happy to be at home on your table.
COOKING AND CARING FOR YOUR CAST IRON AND LEATHER HOT HANDLE HOLDER
Caring for your cast iron doesn’t have to be complicated. Lodge cookware comes already seasoned and ready to use, so you can make your family’s favorite recipes right away. You can use it on any heat source, from the stove to the campfire (just not the microwave!).
Keep your hands safe from heat up to 600° F with your genuine leather hot handle holder as you sear some fresh Atlantic salmon, or use it for a family-style apple cobbler. The more you use your Lodge skillet, the better the seasoning will get.
After hand washing your cookware, simply place it on a burner for a few minutes to dry and then rub on a thin layer of the cooking oil of your choice. For extra messy situations, simmer some water in your pan and then use a pan scraper after it’s cooled. For excellent maintenance, and to prevent rust, always dry promptly and store in a cool, dry place.
MADE IN THE USA
Tucked between the Appalachian Mountains and the Tennessee River you’ll find the small town of South Pittsburg, TN; a town that Lodge is proud to call home. It’s built on family values, American history, and high quality cookware. All Lodge seasoned cast iron is proudly made in the USA, meaning you’ll get the craftsmanship that has been passed down through generations.

This is a BIG pan No complaints about this cast-iron skillet. Very quality made, the ‘pre-seasoning’ was as good as one could expect, the silicon handle is a nice touch. Be forewarned: this is a REALLY big skillet. Looking back I think I probably would’ve been better served getting the next size down. This one becomes a little difficult to manage when it’s hot as it really needs two hands, so a hot pad has to be added to the equation. I’ve added a full sized dinner fork and another common kitchen amenity to…
If only it had a smooth bottom like Griswold skillets I hate how Lodge doesn’t offer any skillets with a smooth bottom, like the old cast iron skillets made by Griswold or Wagner. An old Griswold cast iron skillet will literally sell for hundreds of dollars to this day. Why? Because people want a smooth, non-stick surface!I didn’t feel like spending $300 for an antique skillet on ebay, however, so I bought one of these and polished the entire interior surface with a power drill and an avanti quick strip disk, and finished it off with…
For the price, it’s hard to beat Lodge cast iron skillets I’ve ordered two of these 12″ Lodge cast iron skillets from Amazon over the years. The first one I bought years ago for me to use and, more recently, another one for my son’s first apartment after college.For the price, I don’t think you can beat cast iron skillets from Lodge. If you google “best cast iron cookware,” you’ll generally find Lodge listed at the top or at least as one of the favorites by different consumer research sites and publications such as Cooks…
