home kitchen without a cast iron pan? The cast iron construction is made to last and it comes preseasoned so it's ready for use the minute it gets home. The grilling grooves on the pan create wonderful sear marks on any dishes you cook. Cook any kind of meat whether it be chicken, lamb, salmon, or beef. Let them baste in a savory sauce and use the two pouring spouts to transfer that to the plate with ease. Hand wash this pan, dry and reapply vegetable oil.
