Hey folks, I’m in the market for a good carbon steel skillet. I recognize there’s all kinds of options, but curious to hear people’s experiences with some bang-for-your-buck picks especially.
Specifically I was looking at OXO’s carbon steel pan. If anyone has any thoughts, would appreciate them!
Searching around it seems America’s Test Kitchen recommends this as well. If you had to compare to a cast iron skillet, I imagine still much lighter than that right?
It’s like 60% of the weight.
Awesome, yeah heavy, but not too much like a cast iron then. Thanks for clarifying! Probably going to go head with one of these. Would you consider a smaller size or are you especially happy with the 12inch?
12 works for me. I don’t like keeping too many pans, so I just have a 12 inch of most types of pans.
