A+ on the pancake 🥞

Nice circle pancake 🥞

Do you have to pre-heat in the oven beforehand, or can you put it on the stove right away?

Any other stoned people watching this pancake cook in real time dun-dunning the Mission Impossible music to themselves?

Does the whole griddle get heated though the middle hasnt got a ring directly under??

I scored a 15 1/4" Lodge at a yard sale. Its a monster. And yet they do make them bigger. I will say that the big ones do hold a huge amount. I used to think a #10 skillet was pretty big.

Magnificent!

Do you notice any cold spots?

I have a lot of cast iron skillets but my biggest is a 14.5" Lodge Blacklock skillet. I mostly use it in the over for roasting or pizza, but I will use it on the largest stovetop burner too. The Blacklock skillets are lightweight so the 14.5" is surprisingly easy to handle.

Most of the ceramic glass range manufacturers say you shouldn't span cookware across two elements like this or you risk cracking the glass. No truth to this?

Simple note STOP using seed oils, instead use butter or bacon grease. Seed oils are very bad for you!

Nice burned meat

Looks like the breakfast of champions! 💪🏼

We've used this griddler for a variety of items including steak, fish, vegetables kzbin.infoUgkxMcXT6_MuT0hB3ejyGQQHaeof9bwoWPUf and mushrooms and it's been great! Gets that great smokey flavor when using high heat or sear. The grill works amazingly simple and very low smoke for what it is. Heat gets up fairly quick, especially on closed position. The griddler side is fairly simple, better for eggs and pancakes rather than any cooking. Use the flat plates with the grill side if needed.Cleanup is easy and having heat on both sides is great for cooking a large amount or panini press.This definitely gets hot though so be careful with the sides.

that 13.25 makes a big difference. It is what we use for bacon. Also the bigger pan comes with the chef handle.

Is this a box mix?

Picked up an excellent condition slightly used Lodge 13.25 inch Skillet for 20 bucks which was a very fair price I do believe. I plan to do up a variety of home made Pizzas in it mostly. I have other cast iron pieces to do other cooking which is just as much a pleasure as it is a convenience. Having different sizes and cast shapes of cast iron on hand is like having multiple tools in the tool box and it can make all the difference.

The bigger the pan the longer it takes to heat the whole pan.

I have (among others) a Lodge 12" and also a Lodge 15" that I scored from HomeGoods ... it was like $29.99 instead of $59.95 [they're 'seconds' ... Factory Defects , almost always some ridiculously minor mark or slightly imperfect seasoning, whatever, they're cast iron skillets not artistic pieces for the wall...] - but let me tell you, that 15" is almost TOO BIG ... On the scale it's a bit over 11lbs ... well I am obviously getting old because that 11.2lbs feels like 112 ... but it's a lot of fun to cook with! I will have to search out the 13.25, hadn't seen one! As it happens, I just now picked up a 12" for a birthday present tomorrow, hope she likes it!

Sausage looks a little....well....burnt , 9:44

Darwin young, you’re something else!!!❤

Love my cast iron skillets just FYI don’t use metal against a cast iron skilletb

Thanks for this video. I was wondering about using mine on my glass cooktop. Hibachi Steak, Chicken, and Shrimp here I come

thanx

12" diameter is 36(pi) while 13.25" diameter is 43.89(pi) which is 21.92% more space. Trick is that you always need a burner that is slightly bigger than the pans diameter though. Also, for reference the 10.25" diameter is 26.27(pi) which is only 72.96% the space of a 12" Fun fact, every Dutch oven (exception, camp ovens) Lodge makes has a lid size that corresponds to the size of the lid a skillet would use. 1qt DO to 6.5" 2 qt DO to 8" 5 qt DO to 10.25" 5.5 qt Blacklock to 10.25" 7 qt DO to 12" 9 qt DO to 13.25"

I want the 13" to be my first cast iron!!!!! So far I'm cooking ground bison 🤤.

Excellent video! As a Wisconsinite MAJOR, bonus points for the miller in da background! !!!!

Looks absolutely killer!!!! Great video! Absolutely love lodge! Lodge rocks!

Got my double side griddle from Home Goods for $25 bucks. Took a sander to the flat side and made it smooth as glass. 80 grit, then 120 grit. Probably didn't need too, but I don't have years to wait for a proper time infused seasoning. Coat it in oil and bake it for an hour in a 450 oven. Did it 2x. It worked like magic

Thanks for your sharing and I come from Hong Kong and nice Pancakes

Breakfast of Champions baby love it. Awesome great job man🤙🙈🤣 my mouth was watering watching this vid. I think I might get the pan type with the handle not sure what the diff is though other then the handle

Excellent video, thank you!

Glass top? I’ve still got coils

Stop using vegetable oil, buddy. It is pure poison for your body.

I know cast iron is better but I dont like babysitting it so i ordered a cast aluminum one by Nordic Ware and am waiting for it to come in. I dont even use my 10" cast iron skillet because its annoying (to me) having to take extra measures. Completely agree about gas, you have way more temperature control. I have a glass top in my new house i moved to and hate it, the area I am in there is no natural gas lines so im fked

Now that’s a thumb !

Is there a good or proper way to use these where you don't smoke out your entire house? Got one for christmas, but regardless of running my fume extractor at high speed, my house is filled with smoke within minutes....

I have the 12 inch version as well. I can cook just about everything in it... However, for a large family, bigger might be better.. For example..I can sear 2 really nice sized Ribeyes on the 12 inch, but it lacks space for a 3rd.. Recently married with extended family..I now need that extra space.. Do you feel like the 13.25 would work?

Great video mate!

What size is this griddle

I recently bought the same griddle! ❤️

Thanks for this, I was worried about getting the reversible grill because that inch or so of space and lack of direct contact on a glass top might mean it wouldn't get hot enough.

I have the same one and I love it but I would like a lid for it, finding it hard to get one that fits right and gives me some head space as well

Those pancakes are gorgeous!

Thank You BROTHER!!!!

Great video

Thank you for sharing this video. I see there is a big difference between the 12" and the 13.25 ". On the back of my 13.25 skillet it says "12SK". Kind of confusing.

Lodge. ....the almighty holy grail of cast iron! !!!! Love lodge!!!!!!!
