About Lodge Carbon Steel Skillet, Pre-Seasoned, 12-inch
Overall Feedback:
74% positive
70% appreciated the even heat distribution, but 30% faced issues
I have noticed that the griddle has poor heat distribution. Pancakes brown/burn directly above the electric range element, while immediately next to and above the element will have no browning. Additionally, it takes twice as long to cook pancakes due to required additional turning and flipping.
71% found material durable, while 29% raised concerns
I love the durability of the carbon steel pan. It allows me to sear the outsides of foods without drying out the interiors. I can also scrape whatever sticks and use stainless steel utensils without worrying about damaging the pan.
I had to discard the pan as it released small pieces of black carbon into the food while cooking.
68% found it versatile
I have experienced that the Lodge CRS12 Carbon Steel Skillet transitions seamlessly from stovetop to oven, allowing me to start a dish on the burner and finish it off in the oven without needing to switch cookware. This feature is easy to use and has received positive comments.
