Lodge CRS10 French Style Pre-Seasoned 10" Carbon Steel Fry Pan

Nice heavy duty pan, very high quality. This was my first time using a cast-iron pan, it says that it comes pre-seasoned but you definitely will need to season the pan yourself before using for optimal results. Also, do not put in the dishwasher.

Use in wood fired oven holding up great lighter then cast iron

This is a phenomenal pan. It’s the perfect size for sautéing a steak or chicken breast and is also oven safe and very easy to clean. The lengthy handle makes maneuvering this skillet during use very easy. Highly recommended!

This isn't the best pan for handheld flipping of food, but is awesome to use tools in because of the low lip. Seasons easily, browns food better than anything else I've used. I think there are better options out there, but you won't be poorly served by lodge.

I love these carbon steel pans! They offer everything you want in a cast iron pan in a much lighter package. Treat them the same way you would a cast iron skillet, and they’ll last a very long time. This is my go-to pan whenever possible.

I am very disappointed with these pans, everything sticks and they are a major hassle to clean up after, I was hoping to get the larger pans if these worked out but I will definitely not be buying anymore of these pans. I do not recommend these pans!

I have a ton of regular lodge cast iron but decided to give the carbon steel a try...so glad I did! It is amazing! Well worth the money!

Very sturdy and solid weight. Handle length and angle worked well for flipping food. The pan came in preseason and ready to cook. Works just like cast iron pans but with a lighter weight

These are excellent skillets. They have exceptional heat distribution and cook food evenly. They are the closest skillets to cast iron without the weight. When properly seasoned they have the same non-stick characteristics as cast iron and wipe clean easily.

These pans are awesome. They are almost like cast irons but get hotter way faster. I think I bought 2 dozen, but I've found that I only use 2 or three a night during service. This is because I just wipe them out like a cast iron after I'm done making whatever ingredient So they aren't like other sauté pans where, if you are busy, your burnin through them. They are very well made and I would highly recommend.

I was happy with this Lodge French style carbon steel fry pan. It heated it quickly and evenly. The 12" is a good size for most of my cooking needs. I would recommend getting the silicone handle holder to go with it.

The Lodge 8” Pre-Seasoned French Style Carbon Steel Fry Pan is well made and sturdy. The handle is firmly attached and it doesn’t get too hot. It heats evenly and is easy to clean. This is great for cooking eggs, bacon and even single serving sizes of steak and chicken.

Great carbon steel pan, the shallow sides are sloped to make flipping and turning food easier. The pre seasoning on the pan holds up well and gets better over time. Great buy.

Worth every penny you spend on a skillet, this works wonders with almost anything you need for your kitchen. We have many skillets in our kitchen and this has moved up to our top spots.

After spending the better part of the past year building up my cast iron cookware collection I wanted to open up my horizons to include some different tools. Once I saw that Lodge also offered a nice line of carbon steel products I knew I had to invest in a few pieces. The biggest benefit of carbon steel is the lighter weight. This allows the skillet to heat up much quicker than cast iron. This proved to be extremely useful when I needed to quickly toast some cumin, coriander and black peppercorns. I only need to use the skillet for a few minutes and it just didn’t make sense to have to go through the effort just to use my cast iron.

What a great pre-season carbon steel skillet this earth I love these pants I got the other two sizes and decided to get the big one really nice heavyweight cast iron pan

In love with this skillet, it has became the most used one for cooking meat, which can be seared perfectly, and vegetable. Cleaning is very easy, just use warm water and a steel wool pad and when dry apply a thin oil coating to keep the natural no stick properties. It is made of thick steel but it is light enough to be handled with one hand.

Love this. Every kitchen, commercial or home should have some cast iron. Solid piece, great value. I like the end has a space so that I can hang it on a hook.

A friend turned me onto this pan, and I'm glad he did. Great for searing meat and I especially like it for cooking up eggs. Comes pre-seasoned so theres no setup work involved in getting this pan to its full potential. Super sloped edges makes getting tools in and out of of the pan surface a breeze.

This is a great pan. Great for stirfry or for searing steak. The seasoning it comes with is pretty decent and it's basically ready to go. Treat it like any cast iron you own.

Fantastic carbon steel fry pan. You cannot go wrong with this pan, it's heavy duty and should last a lifetime with proper care. I re-seasoned my pan and it's as good as any non-stick pan.

These are very nicely made pan and is heavy duty. Very non-stick, which makes it great for many uses. I like the long handle. Solid and of good quality.

All of the benefits of cast iron with less than half of the weight. This makes it extremely easy to use for a multitude of purposes. The metal is thick and sturdy and the rivets holding the handle are virtually indestructible. With proper care, this pan will last for generations. The pan might arrive with some chips cracked off of the pre-seasoning but this is not an issue at all. The pan should be re-seasoned upon arrival and repeated every now and then. There is a lot of pseudo-science about seasoning. The best process to use is to rub vegetable oil into your hands and then work it over the entire pan with your hands in a very thin film (resist the urge to glop it on or else you'll end up with a sticky mess in the end). Place it in the oven face down and bake at 350 Read More

Awesome skillets - much lighter that standard cast iron pans but hold and distribute heat much like a cast-iron. Much preferable to stainless steel skillets in our kitchen.

Purchased two of these for cooking our proteins, they heat up quickly and have done a great job of cooking our meats consistently with a nice sear.
