Seasoned, ready to use. This 12 inch skillet is a kitchen's most essential item. The even heating of cast iron is necessary for golden, tender, perfectly pan-fried chicken. What other cookware can rival the heat retention, versatility, value and durability of cast iron.
Pancakes, eggs, and bacon somehow taste extra hearty when cooked in a heavy cast-iron skillet. Cast iron creates superior heat retention, heats evenly, and loves a campfire, unlike flimsier pans. Fry up a mess of catfish, roast a chicken, or bake an apple crisp in this generous 12-inch pan that features two handles for heavy lifting, and two subtle side lips for pouring. While the skillet comes preseasoned to prevent food from sticking, it works best when sprayed or lightly coated with vegetable oil before use. Whether used in a kitchen or camp, this virtually indestructible pan should last for generations.--Ann Bieri

and maybe buy a second one.

First I cooked cornbread, it turned out amazing. I have also cooked some sausage and eggs, they also cooked well. The eggs stuck to the pan a little, but not a big deal. As I use the pans more I'm sure the seasoning will continue to build up and the pans will become more non-stick. But they were still easy to clean up, I... more info
Good skillet for the money, but must be seasoned before use -:
I purchased this skillet a few weeks ago and am very impressed with the quality for the price. There are more expensive versions out there, but after looking them over at local cooking stores I went with the Lodge offering. There are a few large retail outlets that carry the brand off and on as well if you are leery of having this shipped. Not sure if it was just a bad batch, but there are a dozen or so past reviews reporting "broken" wares arriving. On to the pan: it is a medium weight cast iron... more info
