Product Description

Ready to Use: Factory Seasoning

To provide you with a ready to use cast-iron skillet, all our cast-iron cookware pass through factory pre-seasoning stage in which soy-based oil is used on these high head allowing the polymers to create an initial layer of seasoning. This one factory seasoned layer is equivalent 10-15 rounds of normal home seasoning. The normal cast iron seasoning we create at home is attained when the fats and oils used in cooking collect on the cast iron.

This makes our cast iron cookware completely ready to be used straight out of the box. No initial seasoning is required. However; in order to maintain the factory-seasoned cast iron layer you need to season it from time to time. Factory seasoning is just a kick-start to your cookware’s seasoning life. Not to forget that seasoning is an on-going course. If you want your cast iron to maintain a perfect black, non-stick patina, then get started with the cooking. Regular use and proper maintenance is the key to a coveted black non-stick surface.

Versatile Cookware

With our Pre-Seasoned Cast Iron cookware now cook all you can; whether it be steaks, paninis, vegetables or anything you like your tummies to be fed. The perfectly sized wide diameter allows an ample cooking space, making it compatible with oven, stove, grill or over a campfire. This skillet can be used on various heat sources including gas, electric, induction and ceramic-glass top stoves, and ovens. Pay attention while using it on a glass stove top as slight sliding might cause a scratch to the surface.

Prepare delicious dishes and indulge into the best cooking experience at home with this cookware. Whether it is searing, sautéing, simmering, braising, baking, roasting, or frying, this has it all.

Seasoning Tips

Before cooking, rub some olive oil over your cookware’s surface
After washing, rub some oil over your cookware’s surface and place it in an oven at low temperature for the oil to seep in

Enjoy a Healthy Lifestyle

With cast-iron cookware, you do not need to use large amounts of oil. The lovely black non-stick polish on the surface is an indication of a properly seasoned skillet.

Care Instructions

Cool the skillet completely before washing it in hot soapy water with a sponge using a regular dish washing liquid soap; season it with a thick coating of vegetable fat or oil.

Cracked in half the very first time I used it

Reviewed in the United States on April 10, 2017

Size: 12.5 InchVerified Purchase

Complete and total garbage. It broke on my stovetop the very first time I used it. I am a 41 year old woman who has cooked perhaps thousands of meals in her lifetime. I am very well-versed on how to use cast iron cookware. However, while cooking a steak using this pan the whole house heard a very loud crack. I looked down and there was a crack directly through this cast iron pan. What total garbage. Please see my photos below to see how huge of a crack this Dollar Store junk had.

Solid Quality Cast Iron!!

Reviewed in the United States on November 12, 2015

Size: 12.5 Inch

Let me preface this by saying I have been using cast iron pans pots and dutch ovens for years now ALL my cookware is cast. Most of it I inherited from my great grandmothers so these pieces have been in my family for years! I was skeptical of a new brand, I am not a fan of "pre seasoned cast" as a general rule the seasoning is always painted on and it leaves the housewives of today with a very un realistic expectation of cast iron. BUT this review is not about my general feelings about cast iron. haha. I had read some of the other reviews for this pan and I do agree with one lady the coating on the pan is a little rough, but that goes back to pre seasoned cast iron its all that way. Ladies and Gentleman these are NOT your teflon coated aluminum/ stainless steel/ trendy copper pans! These are CAST IRON heavy nitty gritty will scald your hands and sprain your wrists with their weight if you don't handle them properly. These are pans that your great grandchildren will treasure and these pans will make you a MUCH better cook IF you learn the difference between these and the others. The first thing I did when taking this pan out of its package is admire its weight. Its heavy and sturdy its a LOT bigger than I imagined it would be, I know the dimensions are listed but we ladies have been lied to about size our whole lives seeing is believing! ha I did wash this in a bit of dawn soap rinse it and promptly put it wet on the stove.... why? because heat drying is the KEY to cast iron care.... do NOT put a damp pan in the cabinet it will rust and no your dish towel will not dry these pans well heat them up.... thats the only way to make sure your not putting your cast in the cabinet to rust. NEVER and I mean NEVER PUT CAST IRON IN THE DISHWASHER. The second rule is never soak your pan submerged in water. If food is stuck on fill it with water maybe a tiny squirt of dish soap and turn the stove on. Cook it till the food softens and you can scrape it off easily.Yes you can scrub your cast but you do risk damaging the pan... the great thing about that is if you damage it it is always fixable. Don't toss your pan find a Facebook group for cast owners and ask in there how to fix if you think you've messed up. As for this Utopia pan I promptly seasoned it myself when it was done drying (follow the directions included except i use bacon grease and lard only on my cast but to each his own coconut oil would be sufficient as well) why? because like I said I am not a fan of the pre seasoning. I can tell this will be an amazing pan because I pulled it out of the oven 30 min ago and it is still warm to the touch.... why is that good... it tells me that this pan will retain heat from stove to table so my family won't eat cold food after grace AND that the metal used is quality. This pan will last in my house! I LOVEEEEE the handle on it... remember above where i said they will sprain your wrist, hopefully this pan won't as I will be able to carry it with two hands. Total thumbs up for this pan!!

Update:
I have used this pan for several meals now. Its getting a great coating on it and its been so awesome having the extra space in this pan... I can cook 3 grilled cheese comfortably in this pan if that helps you with the size. I cooked chicken in it one night and it did stick but so does all my other cast when I neglect the seasoning! The great thing about cast iron is stove, oven, or over the fire your food will be delicious! (ps if you cook over the fire scrub the outside of the pan with soap when your ready to bring it to the stove again or your hands will forever be black from handling the pan! haha learned the hard way)

Love The Cast Iron Life

Reviewed in the United States on November 30, 2016

Size: 12.5 InchVerified Purchase

What can I say, I love my cast iron skillet! This thing gives a nice charred flavor to meat, and is super easy to clean. I even baked a stuffed pizza in this last night with my wife. If you are not familiar with the cast iron ways then let me tell you, you are missing out. This thing cooks better than a Teflon pan, is easier to clean, and doesn't release harmful chemicals into your food. Other ways it differs from the Teflon pan is that it takes longer to heat up, but once it is hot it does a better job at distributing and maintaining heat.

Here is how I keep my cast iron skillet 100%:
After cooking, I forget about the skillet and let it cool.
Once I remember it is dirty, I run it under hot water and wash away food debris with The Ringer (another great product on amazon, it's a stainless steel, mesh cleaner). This takes roughly 15-30 seconds, remember it doesn't have to be perfect (best part), you just need the food chunks off.
After this I dry with a paper towel, pour (or spray) a little oil in the skillet and wipe around with the same paper towel.
Last, I heat on the stove (med high heat) until it smokes and then remove from heat. This seasons and dries the skillet at the same time. Seasoning makes the skillet stick-free and prevents it from rusting.

That is it! Overall it takes maybe 2 minutes of your attention to clean the skillet after heavy use. Do this and your skillet can last you your whole life and some, while constantly delivering the most delicious cooked food.

It's a cast iron pan! It's inexpensive! I use it to hold heated lava rocks!

Reviewed in the United States on January 11, 2019

Size: 12.5 InchVerified Purchase

I bet you think I am nuts...who buys a pan to hold heated lava rocks?!?! Well, even YOU do if you want to make some awesome bread!

When you are a crafty chef's apprentice, who is trying to up her baking game by practicing in the home kitchen, and you are tired of doing the cast iron dutch oven thing with your loaves (read about making sourdough on the internet; most folks place their shaped loaves in dutch ovens to make the crust get hard with the steam trapped in the dutch oven), you get one of these pans and a bag of lava rocks and make STEAM.

What I do next is place the rock-filled pan (no water) in the bottom oven at 475 while I pre-heat it. Then I place the laove in the middle of the oven, cove the glass on the door with a towel, and carefully pour the water into the pan of rocks (which will instantly and violently boil the water), then shut the door and drop temp to 450. With this method you get a great crust, and dont have to have two more pans to clean up.

Since this pan is purpose purchased, I never treat it, don't care if it rusts, and only wipe it down before reusing it the next time. The pan is wonderful for the task of steaming bread, as well as it would be if I continued seasoning it and made dinner or pan sauces in it...and I can always reclaim it with a piece of steel wool, because it is cast iron pan afterall.

Don't ever be fooled into spending more than $40 for a great cast iron pan; they are all made of the same stuff...cast iron...and this one is $19.

A great investment

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on September 25, 2018

Size: 12.5 InchVerified Purchase

I didn't realise that getting a Cast Iron Skillet is not only obviously far healthier but it's a whole community, of the hows to season and many other things. Fascinating.

Pan arrived promtly and is absolutely fine. It looks like metal that has been worked on obviously, a little rough in places and marked, but looking totally genuine, which i prefer to the often shop bought pans that are like trying to appear as immaculate, often with their non stick coating full off Teflon or the GenX chemicals they use even nowadays.

Pan had a very small bit of rust upon opening underneath, which i quicky removed with some kitchen paper.

And most the important thing is, Steak burgers, and also a chilli i made last night taste better than ever. I definetly think food tastes better, it's like a hot grill.

One thing i learned from others, is heat the pans fairly slowly, so not to ever cause a thermal shock...esp if in cold temperatures.

Brilliant!

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on November 24, 2018

Size: 12.5 InchVerified Purchase

I hesitated for ages before getting a cast-iron pan, but I wished I had bought this earlier.

Excellent value, this has high sides, a useful helper handle, and the pre-seasoned coating is absolutely amazing. First time out my steak didn't catch once.
This cooks the most amazing seared and succulent chicken breasts, and is useful for all sorts of cooking.

I don't worry too much about the cleaning regime. I've had it for a couple of months now, and simply wait until it's cool before running it under water and use a scrubbing brush to dislodge the debris. I then put it on the hob for a few minutes to ensure all the moisture has been driven away, and that's it!
The coating gets better as you use it, just ensure you don't leave it wet.

Check the base before you use.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on September 22, 2018

Size: 12.5 InchVerified Purchase

Good solid pan and great size for the oven. Unfortunately it is not level so the oil sits around the edge requiring pretty much constant stirring. I'll persevere for now but may have to invest in a more expensive model eventually. If you do decide to go for it then the silicone sleeve for the handle is an absolute must as the handle gets super hot.

Excellent, season it well and it’s more non-stick than Teflon.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on June 29, 2019

Size: 12.5 InchVerified Purchase

It’s perfect. Proper cast iron pan. It’s very heavy, as a grown man I can only just handle it one handed, my Mrs can’t.

I seasoned it properly and never use any soaps and have an “oil sponge” which I run around it after each use. I just pour a bit of olive or sunflower oil in the pan and run the sponge around. It keeps it perfectly non-stick, yet it can char/tan foods like no Teflon lightweight pan can.

A tip: After cooking, to reduce cleaning effort given no soap is involved, I heat the pan and run the hot tap. Then run some hot water into the pan at the sink. The massive heat in the pan will boil the water immediately. Just roll the water around the pan and you’ll pour the water away and leave a clean pan. If you do need to run a brush around, it’ll be effortless.

Good buy

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on March 10, 2018

Size: 12.5 InchVerified Purchase

This is my first cast iron skillet and I was nervous about heading down the low cost route as opposed to a Lodge. Whilst I can’t compare it to anything else I’m very pleased. I’ve seasoned it a few times and am now getting the fried eggs to slide across the pan which apparently is the test. This is a heavyweight pan able to accommodate plenty of food. I’m now looking for a smaller one to complete the set. Good buy but you’ll have to research how to get it set up.
