Lodge Seasoned Cast Iron Skillet, 10.25 Inch (L8SK3)

The buy-it-for-life skillet that sears, bakes, and fries on any heat source.

Lodge's 10.25-inch skillet is cast in Tennessee and arrives pre-seasoned with vegetable oil, so it can cook straight out of the box and only gets more nonstick with use. It works on gas, electric, induction, in the oven, on the grill, and even over a campfire, with an assist handle for moving it when full. It is the classic one-pan answer for steaks, cornbread, fried eggs, and skillet cookies.

What we like

  • Exceptional heat retention for hard sears and even baking
  • Works on every heat source, including induction and open flame
  • Pre-seasoned surface improves with every use
  • Extremely durable — no coating to wear out, ever

Good to know

  • Heavy at over 5 lbs, and the handle gets very hot
  • Needs hand washing, drying, and occasional re-seasoning
  • Factory pre-seasoning is rougher than vintage cast iron, so early nonstick performance is modest
