Fry Pans & Skillets
Discover Lodge Cast Iron Skillets and Fry Pans
The Lodge Cast Iron skillet is the pan that built the brand. Pre seasoned and ready to cook, it holds high heat for a deep sear on steaks, cornbread, eggs, and everything in between.
Williams Food Equipment carries Lodge skillets and fry pans across the full size range, from small egg pans to large family skillets.
Why Choose a Lodge Skillet?
Cast iron holds heat better than thinner pans, so it keeps its temperature when food hits the surface, which is exactly what a good sear needs.
- Pre seasoned and ready to cook, improving with every use
- High, steady heat for searing, frying, and baking
- Stovetop, oven, grill, or campfire, cast iron works anywhere
What to Look For
Choose by size and by handle. A larger skillet cooks more at once; smaller pans suit eggs and single servings. Some Lodge skillets add a helper handle for the weight and a pour spout for draining.
- Diameter for how much you cook at once
- Helper handle on larger pans for a two handed lift
- Seasoned or enameled finish
Cooking with a Lodge Skillet
Preheat over medium heat, add a little oil, and let food sear without moving for a good crust. Cast iron holds heat well, so a lower setting often does the job, and the pan moves straight to the oven for cornbread or a finished steak.
Wash by hand, dry thoroughly, and add a light layer of oil to keep the seasoning in shape.
FAQs
Are Lodge skillets pre seasoned?
Yes. Every Lodge seasoned skillet is seasoned with vegetable oil at the foundry, so it is ready to cook on and builds a stronger surface as you use it.
What is the difference between a skillet and a fry pan?
They are the same thing. Both describe a shallow pan with sloped sides for frying, searing, and sauteing. Lodge uses the term skillet.
Can I use a Lodge skillet on induction or glass?
Yes. Cast iron works on induction, glass, gas, and electric. Lift rather than slide the pan to protect a glass surface.
How do I care for a cast iron skillet?
Wash by hand with a little soap, dry it fully, and rub in a thin layer of oil. Avoid soaking and long air drying to prevent rust.
