When Christian Stevenson, aka DJBBQ, the Tsar of the steaks and the King of the coals asks you for a steak skillet, you ain't gonna say "No".
This heavy duty 3mm (1/8th inch) skillet has been designed for Christian and all the steak lovers out there who want a pan that can handle some serious heat. Ramp it up and get the perfect char on your ribeyes, sirloins and rumps; gorgeous surface caramelisation for the best looking, best tasting steak you can imagine.
This pan is not what you need for omelettes and tortillas, stick with an every day spun iron frying pan or prospector pan for that. But when steak is the only thing that's going to fit the bill, this is the pan you really, really need!. Check the weight below before you buy, it's 50% heavier than a standard 10 inch frying pan !
- If you are cooking meat or fish - oil the food, not the pan
- Be patient; allow the food to cook before trying to turn it over.
- Don't fry food straight from the fridge, allow it to come up to room temperature.
-
Every time you use the pan, heat it SLOWLY to frying temperature, then you can use full power.This is especially important if you are using powerful cooking hobs such as induction.
- Use a hob the same size as the pan base, small rings WILL warp big pans.
- Never drop a hot pan into cold water. This will buckle it.
Netherton Foundry is a family owned business located in South Shropshire. They sit right in the birthplace of the Industrial Revolution. This was the 18th Century's "Silicon Valley". Today the heavy iron and coal industries are all but a distant memory and, for the most part, this corner of rural England has returned to a much quieter way of life. Netherton Foundry has been inspired by the 18th and 19th centuries' Shropshire Iron masters and wish to look again at the values that inspired this amazing period of creativity and energy. Whenever possible, materials are sourced as locally as possible and they strive to work with local artisans.
