Overview
Thinner cast walls cut the weight of this Lodge Blacklock skillet while keeping the heat retention cast iron is known for, and triple seasoning gives an easy release surface from day one. A raised handle and assist handle make tilting and pouring easier.
Lighter weight lowers the strain of lifting and flipping, especially for older cooks. Thinner iron holds a little less heat than heavy pans, and care is still hand wash, dry and oil.
Who it's for
Home cooks searing steaks, baking cornbread or frying eggs who struggle with heavy pans will appreciate it. Those unwilling to hand wash and oil should choose coated cookware.
Pros and cons
- Lighter than standard cast iron
- Seasoned and ready to use
- Raised handle stays cool longer
- Pour spouts for sauces
- Hand wash only
- Handle still heats with long cooking
- Needs regular oiling
Performance notes
Cast iron stores heat, so the skillet holds temperature when cold food hits it, and the thinner walls let it heat faster than heavier pans. Release improves as seasoning builds, which comes from cooking with fat and oiling after washing.
