The Lodge Cast Iron 10.5-inch Griddle is a multi-functional cookware that works wonders with all your favorite foods. This griddle is essential for big breakfasts, tortillas, quesadillas, roasted vegetables and grilled sandwiches. Cast iron loves a campfire, a stovetop, or an oven, and can slow-cook foods without scorching. It retains heat well so you can sear meat at higher temperatures and will keep your delicious meals warm for a long time. Whether used in a kitchen or camp, theses virtually indestructible cookware should last for generations. Made of cast iron, this griddle evenly distributes heat from the bottom through the sidewalls. Sporting a stylish black color, the cast iron cookware looks good in most kitchens and it doubles up as an excellent source of nutritional iron. Measures 10.5-inches diameter and .5-inches deep. Cast Iron, like your grandmother used, still ranks as one of the best cooking utensils ever made. It gives you a nearly non-stick surface, without the possible harmful fumes generated by preheating chemically treated nonstick cookware. The American-based company, Lodge, has been fine-tuning its construction of rugged, cast-iron cookware for more than a century.

Love it This is actually now the only Lodge pan that I own anymore. I’ve gone to antique ones that are much smoother, lighter, and in my opinion, better made. After 25 years of cooking with iron, I’ve become fairly particular when it comes to my cookware.The reason that I’ve hung with this one over some of the antique griddles is simply that this one can’t be beat. You don’t move a griddle around when cooking with it so being heavier isn’t a hindrance there. And because I’m often multitasking, I kind of like the idea that I don’t have to hold the handle because it doesn’t budge. It just sits there and does the things it’s supposed to do.Lodge comes with a seasoning on it and it’s not too bad, but I can’t leave well enough alone and have to bump things to my standards. That’s why I have added 3 very thin coats of flaxseed oil to it and cooked each one at 490 degrees F for an hour. They tell you to reseason or add seasoning using vegetable oil, but don’t do it…
Perfect for cooking rotis and other flat breads on radiant stoves I was looking for something without teflon, with a flat base, and even heat conductivity. Traditional iron pans for making rotis are usually concave, designed to sit on gas or kerosene burners. If you have a radiant or other electric cooktop, those concave pans are dangerous because with some rolling they could land on your toes.This griddle is flat-bottomed, so it doesn’t move from its location. It’s thick and distributes heat evenly, and can maintain nearly the same temperature in the middle as it does near the rim. Since it’s pure iron, there’s no danger of burning PTFE, which burns at 500 deg F, I think (I may be wrong or inexact).I still rate it five stars for what it is, but I’ll add some notes of caution:- The loop is not much of a handle. It’s more of a hanging device so you can hang the pan from a hook. It does get hot and isn’t designed to help you flip the food. Use pot holders, or let it cool before picking up.- Rubbing with…
