“It will be the smoothest, most durable, lowest maintenance, best cooking skillet in your kitchen.”

“It will be the smoothest, most durable, lowest maintenance, best cooking skillet in your kitchen.”
“So I bought one, a Lodge Cast Iron Skillet 10.25 inch , but it seems that there is a black layer on the surface with iron below. And the layer is damaged.”
“Definitely a solid, indestructible pan.”
“I also use my Lodge 10.25-inch cast iron pan often and have had it for more than 15 years.”
“but my work horses (lodge 10.25, flat skillet, and 12 inch) are all resurfaced and amazing.”
“10,25 is my #1 goto. Just bought a second one because my 12 is heavy, and often I want 2 skillets and a 12 would be too big.”
“Most of my non-antique cast iron pans are Lodge. They work just fine,”
“My "daily driver" pan for over a decade has just ben a standard Lodge 10.25". I paid $20 for it and you can still get it for that price.”
“I have been using the Lodge 10.25-inch cast iron skillet for over five years, and it has become an indispensable tool in my kitchen.”
“I just bought a Lodge 10.25 inch skillet yesterday night, and have cooked 4 times with it, all decent successes.”
“9 years later, only one pot survived from the set but the skillet is still my #1 most used piece of cookware.”
“This is my 'daily driver'. Just a caution - it is heavy but once you start with cast iron it's hard to stop.”
“I have one of these and I like using it as much as my le creuset which is literally 10x the price.”
“My favorite size is the 10.25 inch. It heats up fairly quickly, doesn't take a lot of oil to fry in, it's a great size for pies and the absolute perfect size for turning a pound of ground beef into taco meat. My only real complaint is it's a little cramped for cooking bacon”
“But honestly I have baked mine in 3 years and it is about as slick as teflon.”
“We bought these lodge pans and have been very happy with them”
“The 10.25in seems to be the one I use the most. I love it!”
“I bought a lodge skillet 4 years ago and love it.”
“I use this pan just about every day and love it.”
