I bought myself a Christmas present

[wtg]

We gave up buying Christmas gifts decades ago but decided we'd splurge and order a 10" cast iron skillet from these guys:

I thought maybe this was a way to build some muscle. Of course buying an 8 lb weight would have been a more cost-effective way to go...

This is the cast iron pan I’ve been hoping for. I am not sure I would actually use it, but I like it anyway.

It’s only 8 inches wide.

@wtg Nice looking pans!

It just arrived!! OMG it is a thing of beauty!! I can't wait to start lifting weights cook in it....

We discovered cast iron skillets late in the game, and are completely hooked. Those look really nice!

Nice!

I’m a big fan of cast iron cookware.

Wow! I want one. I have a Lodge and I need to re-season it.

[Daniel]

Pretty!

What will be your inaugural recipe?

I’m hoping for cornbread!

What a lovely looking pan.

We already had a couple of heavy cast iron griddle pans at about 25cm, so our skillet is 30cm... and no handle at that size. Petromax brand. Got to look after them though!
