Cast Iron Skillets
Offering nearly unmatched heat retention and durability, cast iron skillets are a popular choice because of their versatility in commercial kitchens. Heavy-duty, pre-seasoned cast iron pans can be utilized for many tasks and be fitted with lids to further add functionality in kitchens. More
Cast iron skillets are among the most durable pieces of cookware in commercial kitchens. Nearly indestructible, these pieces can withstand blazing-hot temperatures, which enables them to tackle virtually any cooking task, such as baking cornbread or frying chicken. While cast iron cookware traditionally required the owner to season it with oil before use, pre-seasoned cast iron skillets have now become more common, enabling users to jump straight into cooking when they receive their skillet.
Cast iron skillets come in various diameters, depths, and shapes, including small skillets for frying eggs and large, flat grill pans for finishing a steak. Pre-seasoned cast iron pans can offer the benefits of nonstick cooking immediately upon arrival. A tempered glass or cast iron skillet lid can be purchased to hold in heat and prevent splatters when cooking with grease; some skillets come with additional pour spouts and extra handles to further enhance versatility and control. Cast iron skillets may be sold individually or as part of a set with two or more paired items.
