Product Description
Amazon.com Product Description
Cook up delicious homemade pizza with the help of this round cast-iron pizza pan. The unit measures a generous 14 inches in diameter by 1/2 inch deep--large enough for dinner with the family or for appetizers on game night with a group of friends. And thanks to its heavy-duty cast-iron construction, it cooks its contents beautifully, spreading the heat quickly and evenly throughout the bottom and retaining heat in a way that turns out excellently cooked pizza crusts. In addition to pizza, the pan can also be used for making roasted veggies or baking biscuits and cookies. Chefs will also appreciate the pan's large loop side handles that make it easy to transport from the kitchen counter to the oven and back out again.
The pan hails from Lodge's Pro Logic line, which updates the classic Lodge look with contemporary rolled edges and graceful curved lines. Pro Logic items are also pre-seasoned through a proprietary "electrostatic" vegetable-oil spray system. The pre-seasoning process readies the pan for cooking right out of the box, making it far more convenient than old-style cast-iron items that required oil and oven seasoning before use. The timesaving process also generates a nonstick finish that helps preserve the cookware for generations. As with most cast-iron cookware, Lodge recommends hand washing the pan to protect the surface. Made in USA, the seasoned 14-inch pizza pan carries a limited lifetime warranty, and pizza recipes come included.
Product Description
Seasoned 14" round pizza pan with loop handles features even, fast heating and excellent heat retention. Golden pizza crust every time. Great for roasted vegetables, pork chops, chicken and beef.

Great Pizza Pan & A Whole Lot More!,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Lodge Pro Logic Cast Iron 14" Pizza Pan, Black (Kitchen)
This review is divided into two parts:
1. A short review for those who want quick info 2. A long review for those curious about the ins and outs of this great piece of cookware. I have also attached photos (see customer images above) SHORT REVIEW Pros: *Preseasoned *Multiple uses *Can be used almost anywhere *Makes best pizza ever *Heats evenly *Won't stain *Provides iron in diet *Easy cleanup *Made in the USA Cons: *It is 11 pounds (Not a con for me, but could be heavy for some) Bottom Line: Glad I bought it and would recommend it to anyone interested. LONG REVIEW What comes in the box: *Lodge Logic Preseasoned Pizza Pan 16 x 15 x 2.5 (** Cooking surface is 14 inches **), 11 pounds. The length of the pan from handle to handle is exactly 15 and 1/4 inches (38.74 cm). *Recipe Card with recipes for: pizza dough, pizza sauce, muffuletta pizza, mushroom & sweet pepper pizza, herb roasted potatoes, & instructions on how to care for your cast iron. Preseasoned: Preseasoned is a great thing but realize what it means. It means that it is on its way to being fully seasoned; like 2/3 of the way done. Before you can get that true black cast iron slickness, it still needs one or two more rounds in the oven with Crisco or just cook a pound a bacon on it like I did. Multiple uses: *Pizza Pan *Roasting vegetables *Overall Baking sheet (bake cookies, breads, biscuits, fries, pastries, etc). Please note that flavors can transfer onto the pan so you may have to clean it between different uses. *Griddle on stove for eggs, bacon, pancakes, burgers, hot dogs and similar items *Stir Fry (Use it on one burner; the middle gets the hottest and it gets cooler towards the edges, just like a wok!) *Broiler Plate for the oven *Shallow roaster *Tortilla warmer *Crepe/dosa maker As a side note I have used this in the oven at 450 degrees without a problem. Just remember that the pan will be extremely hot and any sudden changes in temperature may cause the pan to warp or crack so please be careful. For example, if I took the pan out of a blazing hot oven and ran cold water on it right away, it may bend or break. It always best to let the pan get to a manageable temperature before starting the cleanup. Can be used almost anywhere: This pan can be used on almost any surface; on the stove (I have used it on both gas and electric ranges), in the oven and under the broiler, on the grill (both gas and charcoal), even with a campfire/hot coals if you know what you are doing. Pizza: It makes the best pizza I have ever had. The pan heats evenly all the way to the center creating a perfect, uniform crust. I sometimes make my own dough but in a pinch I go down to my favorite local pizzeria and buy some dough from them. The pan can make crispy or soft pizza. Everyone has their own method to making pizza and this is mine: For crispy pizza: Place the dough on room temperature Lodge Pro Logic Pizza Pan and put it in a 400 degree oven for 5-8 min. Once the dough starts to get firm, take it out the oven, spread out a half a cup of sauce, and evenly cover with cheese. At this point you can add whatever toppings you like (make sure meat toppings are already cooked). Bake for about 10 to 15 minutes until desired crispness. 2 minutes before I pull it from the oven, I add a little more cheese so it is just melted and gives you that string cheese pull like in the commercials. (see customer image above) For softer pizza, follow the same directions as above without first baking the dough. I serve & cut the pizza in the pan. Although the pizza does still cook while in the pan, I noticed it basically keeps it warm until the last slice. I use a pizza cutter from the dollar store which will cut the pizza but will not scratch or scrap the seasoning off. If you cut your pizza in the pan, please be careful not to scratch seasoning. If you do, just reseason (see below). Because it is cast iron, it won't stain like a pizza stone or get those burnt spots like aluminum does. Also, cooking in cast iron provides iron in your diet because the food absorbs some of the iron. Size: It makes a pizza big enough for 2 people with a good appetite (assuming they have a side dish) or 3 people with less of an appetite. Sometimes the pizza is so good I can eat the whole thing myself! Normally, I eat about 2/3 of the pie along with a side salad and I am satisfied--I do have a good appetite. If I had a large family, I would definitely consider buying two. Of course for you folks with the large family, try one pan first and then make the decision yourself. (The photos included above do have a US quarter in the picture so you can gauge the size of the pie). Clean up & Seasoning: After cooking, take a dry paper towel while the pan is still warm and wipe it down (if it is really dirty use a little water but I never use soap). If you use water, you can reheat the pan to get it dry. After it is clean and dry, spray it with Pam and then wipe away any excess oil. Place pan back in the warm oven or on top of the burner just used. That's it! The residual heat will reseason the pan while the oven/stove is cooling down. Food never sticks using this method. If your seasoning ever comes off, just apply some oil and bake in the oven; repeat as necessary. Be careful not to use too much oil while seasoning or you will get a sticky or gummy residue on it--this should be avoided. An added bonus is that it is made in the USA by Lodge, so you can buy and use with confidence knowing this product was made here by a company with over 100 years experience in the business. Lodge customer service has always been super helpful and friendly to me. So in conclusion, this is a great pan that I am sure you will love as much as I do! If you have any questions or comments, feel free to post them. I check this post regularly and would love to hear from you! I hope you found this review helpful. Thanks for reading.

The Absolute Best!!!,
By Coffee Lover (Belton, MO USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Lodge Pro Logic Cast Iron 14" Pizza Pan, Black (Kitchen)
This is the absolute best pizza pan that money can buy. You will get perfect crust everytime without fail. We cut our pizza while it is still in the pan and then serve it from the pan. It stays hot for a long time because of the cast iron. Our family eats a lot of pizza so we purchased two of these pans. They are large, but not too heavy to handle. They are pre-seasoned and easy to care for. We highly recommend this product to you without any reservation. Do yourself a favor and order it today!!!

One word: SUPERB,
By Amadeus "Adi" (Ca) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Lodge Pro Logic Cast Iron 14" Pizza Pan, Black (Kitchen)
Best pizza pan by far. And I should know, I've had several, including one of those round stones. Great baking, nonstick and like all cast iron, should last forever. One nice thing is the lip of the pan, no more pizza sauce or cheese spills. If you need one (or two) this is it, you'll never need another one.
