14" COMMERCIAL ALUMINUM NON-STICK FRY FRYING PAN - NSF Review

14 COMMERCIAL ALUMINUM NON-STICK FRY FRYING PAN - NSF
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This is a very high-quality frying pan; restaurant quality. The only issue I have with it is that it is very heavy. Fortunately for me, my boyfriend does most of the cooking, but I do a fair amount of the cleaning. The pan is too big to fit in our medium-sized dishwasher. It's large size is nice for cooking certain dishes, but also means that I must wash it by hand. It washes nice and easy with a solid non-stick coating. However lifting it up to rinse can be a bit of a strain on my wrists, given its weight.

We were given this as a wedding gift 3+ years ago. Then I left it on the cooker and it slightly burnt the bottom. We continued to use it without problems since (just a little harder to clean). Now we just bought a new one as it is the most used pan we have. AWESOME product.

Emerilware Cast Iron 12 Inch Skillet Review

Emerilware Cast Iron 12 Inch Skillet
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I purchased this skillet after reading every review here, believing that the negative reviews were probably due to a lack of understanding how to work with cast iron.
At first, I did like the skillet. I took it through my own seasoning process (even though it was pre-seasoned) and was happy with both the appearance and (more importantly) the cooking qualities the first couple of times I used it.
I have been using it 1-2 times daily for the two weeks I've had it. A cast iron skillet is supposed to become better and more seasoned the more you use it. This one, however, is becoming worse. It doesn't heat as evenly as my other cast iron pieces, and no matter how carefully I clean and re-season it (I clean with kosher salt and a lint-free cloth, rinse with hot water, towel-dry then heat-dry it, then re-season with oil), the "seasoning" is becoming more and more uneven.
I had hesitated to buy this skillet since it's made in China and I don't want even the smallest chance that there is lead in this skillet. I should have gone with my hunch because now, more than ever, I'm upset at the idea of unknown elements being in this skillet, especially since the skillet isn't up to par with my other cast iron. I've also heard more and more stories of Emeril cast iron cracking... which I had thought initially due to too-rapid heating or cooking, but now I'm wondering if the Chinese cast iron itself is an inferior compound with sub-par "filler" material.
By point of comparison, four days ago I bought two Lodge 8" skillets. Of course, after my Emeril pre-seasoning experience, I had low expectations. But I was amazed as I gently washed them for the first time and water actually beaded on the surface and rolled right off. I decided to do something bold and daring, and cooked some eggs in the Lodge -- only the second time I cooked with it. Amazingly, those eggs slid right out as if the pan were Teflon -- a minor miracle with cast iron.
I can't return this skillet since I've used it, but I will be buying a Lodge 12" skillet instead. I'd rather waste my money and KNOW that I'm buying a safe, time-tested, made-in-the-USA item from a company with a longstanding reputation. The Lodge skillet is much less expensive, yet worth so much more... the superior pre-seasoning and the highly reputable manufacturer make Lodge the better deal even if it were higher-priced. Sorry, Emeril, but my vote is with Lodge.

Heuck 33024 Porcelain Enamel Cast Iron 2.5 Quart Sauce Pan and 8 Inch Skillet Combo, Red Review

Average Reviews:

These pots are nice but they are not comparable in quality to Le Creuset. I ordered quite a few of these in different sizes from Amazon when they were on a Friday special. Some of the pots are better than others. On some the enamel doesn't seem to be as thick, there are places where you can see the cast iron just under the surface. I am assuming that this may wear through sooner. Others appear to have a much better enamel coating. The lids on the Heuck pieces don't fit on the pots quite as nicely as the lids do on Le Creuset pots. They are also heavier than Le Creuset is for the same sized pot. You will likely need a ladle in order to remove the contents if you use this sauce pan. I waitressed for years carrying heavy trays and I can just barely manage to hold this 2.5 quart pot up and scrape the contents out with a spatula. Overall they are definitely worth the price, but if you can find second hand Le Creuset that has the interior enamel relatively intact it would probably be a better deal, as it appears that they will last longer than these Heuck pots will.
10/27/2010. As I was afraid of, the enamel in some places has worn away on the interior of some of my Heuck pots and now there are rust stains around the exposed cast iron. My 20+ year old LeCreuset still looks beautiful!

Lodge Logic L14SK3 Pre-Seasoned 15 Inch Cast-Iron Skillet Review

Average Reviews:

I've decided to replace my teflon pans with cast iron and this is one of the first ones I bought. So far it has been excellent. The large size is fantastic, though it's definitely heavy. My arm muscles are getting a workout! I'm glad I got it pre-seasoned, since that was one less thing to hassle with. I have found that cooking with cast iron makes food taste better. Kind of surprsing. I'm not sure why this has been the case, but my husband and I have both noticed it. I have to say though, it is very different than cooking with a regular teflon pan. At first I kept burning everything. Cast iron gets very hot and maintains a steady hot temperature. I'm finding that I'm basically cooking everything in this pan on med-low heat, where I would have used medium heat. Overall, I'm happy with my purchase though and plan on getting a couple more cast iron pans

Lodge cast-iron cookware has long been admired for its superior heat retention and even heat distribution, but now the company adds another enticement with its Lodge Logic line. All Lodge Logic cookware, including this generously sized 15-1/4-inch skillet, comes preseasoned via a proprietary "electrostatic" vegetable oil spray system and is ready for cooking right out of the box--unlike traditional Lodge cookware, which needs seasoning in your home oven before use. During the timesaving preseasoning process, oil penetrates deeply into the cast-iron surface while a high-temperature gas oven seals it in, preserving the cookware for generations and creating an attractive heirloom finish.
The skillet measures 15-1/4 inches in diameter and 2-1/4 inches deep--an ideal size for large tasks such as cooking a stack of pancakes or making a family portion of scrambled eggs. The vessel is also suited for roasting vegetables, searing steaks, or making quesadillas, as its cast-iron material delivers a smooth, consistent temperature without wasting heat. The pan's esteemed heat retention particularly enhances slow-cooking recipes that call for tender meats and rich, seasoned flavors. Chefs will also appreciate the durable handle with a loop on the end for hanging, along with the opposite helper handle that aids in transport--a necessity when cooking with heavy cast iron. And finally, the skillet includes a couple of side indentations that facilitate smoother pouring. Lodge recommends hand washing the pan with a stiff brush and hot water for best results. The skillet also comes with a lifetime warranty.

Being the proud owner of several other Lodge cooking vessels, I boldly tried my hand at frying. All I can say is wow.
The chicken fryer works wonders on chicken, veal, and cube steak. All of the cast iron properties come in to play when using the fryer, and it provides the control and the stability needed when frying foods. The heavy weight gives it stability, and the heat retention properties mean that you can control your cooking efforts more efficiently.
Try the fryer, you won't be disapointed!

This skillet is very thin metal, when half full and lifted it bends. I originally thought the handle was loose, but it was the skillet bending, It doesn't clean easily at all, and the outer handle opposite the lifting handle is about to come off. The lid is fine, but
with this skillet being and odd size I'm probably just going to have an odd lid after I pitch the skillet. Would appreciate suggestion for a low priced similar skillet.

Sadly I wasted $50 on this pan thinking it would be better than the others. It also warped and the center of the pan is now a high dome and everything sticks to it. Not impressed and I haven't had it all that long. Wouldn't buy another. I gave it two stars for its rather large size. It's big enough to cook a family meal in it.

This is the perfect all around pan for my family of 5. I've enjoyed using it so much that I gave 3 of them as Christmas gifts! This pan has all of the space you need for cooking everything from Chicken to several ingredient pasta dishes; the pan is large enough to mix everything together right there. It evenly distributes the heat so everything within the pan is equally cooked. I love watching the food cook thru the glass lid. It's an extremely sturdy pan and American made!

Lodge LCC3 Logic Pre-Seasoned Combo Cooker
Average Reviews:

if you are just outfitting your kitchen, start with this pan. Especially if you are cooking for 2 or 3. The 10" deep skillet is one of the least expensive, decent fry pans available. You can do a dutch apple pie with the lid on in the oven, you can cook eggs, pancakes, french toast on the lid. If you are cooking for 4, and want just one fry pan, get the 12". Otherwise this pan does it all. Roast, fry, oven and stove top. The pans are tough, mine is going on 20+ years.
Downside, takes a bit more oil or grease than a Teflon pan, but then if you own a parrot you already know you can't cook on Teflon. Makes you wonder how good it is for the rest of us.

Get two pieces of cookware in one package with this cast iron Combo Cooker from the Lodge Logic line. It features a 3-quart base that can act as a deep skillet or shallow Dutch oven and a shallow 10-1/4-inch skillet/griddle that also acts as a lid to the 3-quart base. Cast iron creates superior heat retention, heats evenly, and loves a campfire, unlike flimsier pans. The American-based company Lodge has been fine-tuning its construction of rugged, cast-iron cookware for more than a century. No other metal is as long-lasting and works as well for spreading and retaining heat evenly during cooking. Lodge's Logic line of cookware comes factory pre-seasoned with the company's vegetable oil formula, and is ready to use right out of the box.
While both come pre-seasoned to prevent food from sticking, they work best when sprayed or lightly coated with vegetable oil before use. After the meal is done, simply scrub the cast iron with a stiff brush and hot water, no soap, and dry immediately. Lodge covers the sturdy oven with a lifetime limited warranty against defects, and when cared for properly, this virtually indestructible pan should last for generations.

Love, love this pan! Great size and feel. The handles are great. Truly nonstick, cleaning is a dream! Eggs, pancakes, anything you cook inside slides right off. My other pans are Martha Stewart brand and are no where near as good. The fact that it is made environmentally safe for the planet and safe for us as well is fantastic. Buying "Green" products is extremely important. After weeks of using, the bottom hasn't turned brown like my other pans. It still has the pretty green leaves design :) Looks brand new.

This is the pan that you can cook anything in. Great for cooking stir fry or pan fry dumplings. The non-stick coating is excellent. Easy to wash and clean. Well-made hinges. Good quality pot. Love that it comes with lid. The pot is not as heavy as I thought, which makes it easier to wash in the sink.
The only con I have is that the smaller handle still gets a little hot and the rubber grip on that handle seems like it might come off one day if not careful. Other than that, we use this pot very frequently (several times a week) and enjoy it very much. If using this pot, I highly recommend cooking with bamboo or wood utensils so you won't scratch up the non-stick coating. I would recommend this pot to others and would buy again.
