chicken fryer skillet, popcorn pan, covered cast iron skillet

This pan can do it all, from deep frying to bread baking

chicken fryer skillet, popcorn pan, covered cast iron skillet
Use & Care

While the skillet comes pre-seasoned to prevent food from sticking, it works best when sprayed or lightly coated with vegetable oil before use. After cooking, we recommend cleaning with a stiff nylon brush and hot water. Using soap or the dishwasher is not recommended, and harsh detergents should never be used. Towel dry immediately cleaning and apply a light coating of oil to utensil while it is still warm.

Lodge L8CF3 Covered Chicken Fryer, Black

Pre-seasoned skillet is ready-to-use right out of the box

The black patina given to the cookware by the factory seasoning process is, in fact, vegetable oil that has been baked into a piece of cookware that has emerged from an individual sand mold. This coating of oil is a functional application and not a cosmetic application. The cookware is hanging as it rides through the electrostatic sprayer and commercial conveyer ovens at very high temperatures. This allows the oil to penetrate deeply into the pores of the iron which creates an easy release finish. As a result of this process, you may see a blister or bubble of oil at the southern-most point or at the end of the handle of the cookware piece. If visible, it will rub or flake off with your finger, leaving a brown spot. Don’t worry, it’s not rust but a seasoned spot that is brown, indicative of the varnish stage of seasoning. As a matter of fact, this is the color of home seasoned iron until it has been used several times. The brown spot will turn black with use.

Product Description

Product Description

Fried chicken is not the real thing unless it's cooked in cast iron. Cast iron gets hotter, stays hotter, and you can't beat it for the crispiest of crisp and the goldenest of golden fried favorites. This 3 qt chicken fryer is deeper than standard skillets 10 1/4" diameter, 3" deep. This 10-1/4” pan features two handles for heavy lifting and a cast iron cover. Whether used in a kitchen or camp, theses virtually indestructible cookware should last for generations. Made of cast iron, this pan evenly distributes heat from the bottom through the sidewalls. Sporting a stylish black color, the cast iron Skillet looks good in most kitchens and it doubles up as an excellent source of nutritional iron. Cast Iron, like your grandmother used, still ranks as one of the best cooking utensils ever made. It gives you a nearly non-stick surface, without the possible harmful fumes generated by preheating chemically treated nonstick cookware. The American-based company, Lodge, has been fine-tuning its construction of rugged, cast-iron cookware for more than a century. The skillet dimensions are 16.56” x 10.5” x 3.06” and with cover on its 16.56” x 10.5” x 4.94”. Inside skillet dimensions is 10.25” wide and 3” deep.

Relive the vivid pleasure of childhood camping meals with this 3-quart cast-iron fryer with domed lid. Cast iron creates superior heat retention, heats evenly, and loves a campfire, unlike flimsier pans. Perfect for frying chicken, roasting potatoes, or baking cornbread, this 10-1/4-inch pan features tips on the underside of the lid that allow condensing liquids to drip and moisten the contents. 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

Customers say

Customers like the quality, value, size and ease of cleaning of the dutch oven. For example, they mention it's really heavy-duty, fits nicely on the top and that it makes delicious dishes with a great home cooked flavor. Some appreciate the heat resistance. That said, some complain about the weight and the coating.

I got my pan today and made a whole chicken in the oven. My husband even commented how good everything tastes cooked in cast iron. My dutch oven is on the way, cant wait to get that. I've read several people say lodge is bumpy and things stick. I say to them, I just dont have that issue, yes its bumpy but I can still cook an egg and not have it stick. It's all in the seasoning and letting it warm properly. I just need one more piece to complete my set. Thank you lodge for having a super product for us to enjoy

5.0 out of 5 stars Cast iron is the best.
Reviewed in the United States on November 29, 2023
So. I got this for my wife.. She has never used a cast Iron Pot before.. It's weight is reassuring. It's handles do get a little warm tho. I'm glad i got the silicon pot holders for it. it cooks almost anything you put in it if it will fit. My wife uses propane in her country. she said medium heat/fire then you can lower the heat cause once it's warmed up it will keep and spread the heat through the whole pot.

4.0 out of 5 stars The food tastes amazing! Love it
Reviewed in the United States on September 10, 2018
I have been using this cast iron skillet for 2 weeks now. When I received the skillet I washed it and seasoned it myself and then started using it.
Below is my detailed review
Pros:
1) Food tastes great when cooked in this skillet
2) Food does not burns or stick.
3) 3-Quartz size is perfect for a meal of 2-3 people. It is deep enough to cook curry recipes. I generally make Indian curry recipes in this and have no complaints about the depth or size
4) The overall structure is very strong and durable, you can be sure that the quality is top class
5) The lid fits perfectly and if you are using the lid while cooking it captures the aroma of the food which makes the food to smell amazing
6)Affordable and long lasting if maintained properly
Cons:
1) A little heavy, not your normal cookware weight
2) If you are in general a lazy person, you should give it a thought before ordering this item because it takes a little effort in cleaning and maintaining the skillet. You cannot wash it in the dishwasher also you need to season it after every wash
3) The skillet lid I received has small rust spots, if you look closely at the pictures you will be able to tell. I have given 4 star because of that, apart from that I love this cookware
