Iron Man

I love iron cookware. There’s just something manly about iron, especially after being blackened and smoothed from frequent use. Over the weekend I picked up two more pieces of iron cookware, a 12 inch and 15 1/2 inch skillet if you must know. I believe the 15 incher weighs at least 12 pounds and is probably closer to 15 pounds. The main reason I’ve decided to do this is the difficulty in caring for and maintaining the other non-stick pans that we have. All our other cookware is now warping and the non-stick surfaces are all scratched to hell and back. This could be because we’re using low quality cookware, as our large open french skillet is still just fine. Our electric griddle is also failing, which is why I decided to go with the 15 inch iron skillet. Even if you have a terrible electric range like ours you can still control temperature pretty well with iron.

There just something manly about a black 15 inch skillet that weighs more than your 8 month old child.
