Lodge Cast Iron Skillet 10.25"

The Lodge 10.25" Cast Iron Skillet is the best value in all of cookware. Pre-seasoned and ready to use out of the box, it sears steaks better than any non-stick pan ever could, and the seasoning improves with every use. Cast iron's heat retention is unmatched — once it's hot, it stays hot. Perfect for searing, frying, baking (cornbread, anyone?), and even going from stovetop to oven seamlessly. It handles temperatures that would destroy any non-stick coating. Maintenance is simpler than people think: rinse, dry, occasional oil wipe. That's it. This pan will literally last longer than you. Your great-great-grandkids could be cooking on it. At under $20, it's the most obvious kitchen purchase you can make.
