## Overview

The Lodge 12-inch carbon steel skillet is a professional-grade, heavy-duty pan crafted from 12-gauge carbon steel with steel riveted handles. Pre-seasoned for a natural, easy-release surface that improves with use, it excels at searing, sautéing, grilling, roasting, and frying. Compatible with induction cooktops, it includes a heat-resistant silicone handle holder protecting hands up to 500°F.

## Description

If you're entertaining or have a large family, the Lodge 12 inch seasoned carbon steel skillet has you covered. Big enough to sear multiple steaks or toss a ton of pasta, it's sure to please the crowd. Includes Orange Lodge silicone hot handle holder, which protects hands up to 500-degrees F (not intended for use in oven or direct flame) and is dishwasher safe. Heavy duty 12 gauge carbon steel with steel riveted handles. Carbon steel is preferred by professional kitchens and is the right tool to sear, saute, grill, roast and fry. Seasoned for a natural, easy-release finish that improves with use. Great for induction cooktops. Easy care: hand wash, dry promptly and rub with cooking oil.

Review: The best frying pan I own - Of all my frying pans, this one is my favorite because it performs better than any other type on a gas range. It comes “pre-seasoned” but the coating is rough so I sanded it off before using the pan. This allows the real seasoning to happen without the coating material added by the manufacturer which dramatically improves the nonstick nature of the product. (I always remove any Lodge pre-seasoning from any of their products using fine metal sandpaper.) When cooking, this frying pan heats up quickly but benefits from a thorough pre-heating which makes the results more predictable. It looks ugly compared to the shiny stainless steel pans but it performs better and is nonstick and easy to clean by wiping it down and burning off any excess residue using high heat. Once cleaned, a light coat of oil helps prevent rust. After decades of using cast iron and stainless steel frying pans, I only use this carbon steel pan now. The handle is removable and the pan can be used in an oven or on the stovetop.
Review: Great Pan - So far, after 3 months of use, this is an excellent pan. All the benefits of cast iron without the weight. And it also heats and cools quicker. Does a surprisingly good job with cooking eggs, which are one of the stickier foods to fry. Sauteing vegetables, grilled cheese, burgers all come out great. And from what I've researched, this pan will last infinitely longer than the top of the line ceramic nonstick pans I brought previously that lasted only 8 months.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Decent pan, decent price. Can'
*by J***B on October 19, 2025*

I've been using this pan for about 4 years. Overall, I'm impressed with the simplicity of it. It's way lighter than CI (obv), non-stick, easy to clean and durable. There are some hot spots, and the rubber handle is useless in my book. I just use an Ove Glove. Is it perfect, no. But it's fixture on my stove top ready and waiting.
