Lodge Color 11" Skillet, Caribbean Blue

Lodge Color 11" Skillet, Caribbean Blue Review



Lodge Color 11" Skillet, Caribbean Blue Feature

  • Porcelain surface eliminates the need to season
  • Tightly fitting lid seals in moisture (lid not included)
  • Superior heat distribution and retention
  • Two layers of porcelain enamel are chip resistant
  • Hand wash and dry with warm soapy water
This 11-inch enameled skillet is great for cooking on gas, electric, ceramic and induction cooktops, as well as in the oven. Not recommended for use on outdoor grills or over open outdoor flames, nor in the microwaves. The use of vegetable oil or cooking spray is recommended for better cooking and clean up. Select low to medium heat when cooking on stove top, and never heat an empty pan. Use of wooden or silicone utensils is recommended. Lodge color-porcelain enameled cast iron cookware is cast from molten iron in individual sand molds. The porcelain surface eliminates the need to season cast iron. The cast iron vessel has superior heat distribution and retention, evenly heating bottom sidewalls and even the lid. Tightly fitting lid seals in moisture. (Note: Lid is not included with this skillet.) The excellent heat retention reduces the amount of energy needed for cooking. Two layers of very hard, glossy porcelain enamel are chip-resistant and easy to clean. The black cooking surface on the skillet is matte porcelain, not exposed cast iron. Hygienic porcelain enamel is non-reactive with food. Although dishwasher safe, hand washing with warm soapy water is recommended to preserve the cookware's original appearance. 11-inches in diameter, this skillet is 1-3/4-inches deep.

Le Creuset Enameled Cast-Iron 10-1/4-Inch Square Skillet Grill, Caribbean

Le Creuset Enameled Cast-Iron 10-1/4-Inch Square Skillet Grill, Caribbean Review



Le Creuset Enameled Cast-Iron 10-1/4-Inch Square Skillet Grill, Caribbean Feature

  • 10-1/4-inch square skillet made of enameled cast iron
  • Raised ribs impart grill marks; dual spouts for drip-free pouring
  • Integral iron handle and opposite helper handle for secure transport
  • Hand washing recommended; oven- and broiler-safe to any oven temperature
  • Measures approximately 11-3/4 by 16-3/4 by 2 inches; limited lifetime warranty
By squaring this skillet and flaring its sides, famed French cookware manufacturer Le Creuset offers extra cooking room for steaks, fish, burgers, or any food that benefits from stovetop grilling and the caramelized flavor imparted by seared grill marks. The raised ribs in the grill's bottom not only provide those marks but also help excess fat and grease drain away from food for lower-calorie cooking.

Because cast iron is unmatched for heat retention and even heat distribution (no hot spots), foods will cook uniformly in the 10-1/4-inch-square grill. The unit's exterior provides a colorful, long-lasting enamel that resists chipping and cracking, while its inside offers a durable black enamel finish (no seasoning required). The grill also provides a sturdy, integrated handle with an opposite helper handle for secure transport, as well as dual nondrip spouts--one on each side to accommodate left- and right-handed pouring. Even more, the grill works on any stovetop, in the oven, or under a broiler. It's also stylish enough (think French farmhouse kitchen) to bring to the table. Though it's dishwasher-safe, hand washing preserves a patina that builds up with use and aids in the grill's stick resistance. The skillet grill measures approximately 11-3/4 by 16-3/4 by 2 inches and carries a limited lifetime warranty. --Fred Brack Forged and crafted by hand since 1925, Le Creuset Enameled Cast Iron cookware is a masterpiece. Each pieces is formed in its own sand mold and skillfully hand finished by more than 30 craftsmen. The result is a superior quality cookware that will provide a lifetime of everyday use.

  • Cast-iron handle and opposite helper handle facilitate convenient transport
  • Hand washing recommended; suitable for induction cooking; oven- and broiler-safe
