Featuring superior heat retention and even heat distribution, it works seamlessly on all cooking surfaces including induction, gas, electric, ovens, grills, and campfires. Made in the USA with durable cast iron, it offers a naturally non-stick surface that improves with use, making it a versatile and long-lasting essential for sautéing, searing, roasting, and slow simmering. ## Description Designed for the gourmet, the Lodge Chef Skillet is great for omelets, cornbread or sauteing. This unique 10-inch skillet has sloped sides and features a teardrop handle. 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. Made of cast iron, this skillet evenly distributes heat from the bottom through the sidewalls. Sporting a stylish black color, the cast iron skillet looks good in most kitchens and it doubles up as an excellent source of nutritional iron. Measures: 10-inch diameter, 1.75-inch 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. The black patina given to the cookware by the factory seasoning process is, in fact, vegetable oil that has been baked into a piece of cookware that has emerged from an individual sand mold. This coating of oil is a functional application and not a cosmetic application. The cookware is hanging as it rides through the electrostatic sprayer and commercial conveyer ovens at very high temperatures. This allows the oil to penetrate deeply into the pores of the iron which creates an easy release finish. As a result of this process, you may see a blister or bubble of oil at the southern-most point or at the end of the handle of the cookware piece. If visible, it will rub or flake off with your finger, leaving a brown spot. Don’t worry, it’s not rust but a seasoned spot that is brown, indicative of the varnish stage of seasoning. As a matter of fact, this is the color of home seasoned iron until it has been used several times. The brown spot will turn black with use. While the skillet comes pre-seasoned to prevent food from sticking, it works best when sprayed or lightly coated with vegetable oil before use. After cooking, we recommend cleaning with a stiff nylon brush and hot water. Using soap or the dishwasher is not recommended, and harsh detergents should never be used. Towel dry immediately cleaning and apply a light coating of oil to utensil while it is still warm. ## Features - Sloped sides with tear-drop handle - Pre-Seasoned and ready-to-use - Superior heat retention and even cooking - Use on all cooking surfaces, grills, campfires and oven safe - Made in the USA ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00008GKDJ | | Additional Features | Electric Stovetop Compatible, Gas Stovetop Compatible, Induction Stovetop Compatible | | Brand Name | Lodge | | Capacity | 1 Pounds | | Coating Description | Non-stick seasoning | | Color | Black | | Compatible Devices | Gas | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 4.7 out of 5 stars (2,771) | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00075536330006 | | Handle Material | Cast Iron | | Has Nonstick Coating | Yes | | Included Components | skillet | | Is Oven Safe | Yes | | Is the item dishwasher safe? | No | | Item Type Name | Cast Iron Chef's Skillet, Pre-Seasoned, 10-inch | | Item Weight | 2.02 kg | | Manufacturer | LODGE | | Manufacturer Part Number | LCS3 | | Material Type | Cast Iron | | Metal Type | Cast Iron | | Model Name | Lodge LCS3 | | Model Number | LCS3 | | Product Care Instructions | Hand Wash Only | | Recommended Uses For Product | Sautéing, stir-frying, searing, pan-frying, roasting, slow simmering | | Shape | flattened cylinder or frustum of a cone | | Specific Uses For Product | home cooking, dinner for two, sautéing, stir-frying, searing, pan-frying, roasting, and slow simmering | | UPC | 075536353135 077344759819 778295136079 013389094669 787461520406 885486351668 029441070953 801873439412 697046419769 722208798267 075536330006 075536260006 712069230860 712069230884 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Lodge - **Capacity:** 1 Pounds - **Colour:** Black - **Material:** Cast Iron - **Special features:** Electric Stovetop Compatible, Gas Stovetop Compatible, Induction Stovetop Compatible ## Images ![Lodge Skillet 10" Black LCS3 - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51G33S2l+JL.jpg) ![Lodge Skillet 10" Black LCS3 - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51oSWJaNpPL.jpg) ![Lodge Skillet 10" Black LCS3 - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91bxJXWDCwL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Pattern, Size** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: what is the difference between this lodge pan LCS3 @ $25 and the lodge LK8S3 pan which is $15? Both are ten 1/2 inch pans look the same.** A: the LK8S3 is 12" diameter, has more a sharper "corner" where where the sides join the bottom, has more vertical sides, and is 2" deep. the LCS3 is 10" diameter, has sides that are angled outwards more, the sides join the bottom in more of a curve, and is 1.75" deep. basically, it much easier to slide an omelet (or anything else, I suppose) sideways out of the LCS3 without breaking. **Q: Most 1-Star reviews complain about a rough surface on the inside of the skillet, is this a common occurrence?** A: Yup. It's common to every pan, pot and oven made by Lodge. They don't machine the cooking surfaces as they did in days of yore, and it makes no difference, at least to me, and I have both. I made omelets with mine using a little olive oil and butter the day I got it and it worked fine from the get go. I would recommend wiping it down with a thin coat of Crisco when you take delivery, popping it in a 350 dg. oven for an hour, and letting it cool in the oven. Be sure the pan is upside down when you do this. This adds another coat of seasoning. To clean it, I pour hot water in it and let it sit while I'm eating. I then toss out the water, scrub with a nylon scrubbie if necessary, dry, heat the pan on the stove and wipe down with oil.

Can this be done without damage?** A: I make a fabulous pan pizza in my 10.25 lodge and the temp is 550. 550 is no problem for cast iron. **Q: Is the 10" measurement at the top of the skillet or the cooking area on the bottom?** A: 10" at the top. The cooking area on the bottom is only 7 1/2". ## Frequently Bought Together - Lodge 10 Inch Cast Iron Chef Skillet.
