Equipment Review: My Tfal Expert Pro Stainless Steel Skillet

[@6ohh_powerstroke240]

Legend has it... He is still scrubbing this pan.

[@bagariusyarrelli7142]

It's been well over a year since you promised to wash the Tfal Expert Pro Stainless Steel Skillet, Richard. We're still waiting.

[@armyvets.7365]

It's because you'll need a power washer not a dishwasher, we have the same set!

[@DizConnected]

@@armyvets.7365 Look up how to season a stainless steel pan to make it non-stick, lots of videos on KZbin how to do it.

[@christophervanvliet4565]

I would have liked to see you wash the pan to see how everything came off...or didn't come off.

[@RichardBlaine]

Next time!

I rarely use a non-stick pan for anything except eggs . Made the switch about six months ago and I'm quite happy about it. Got an affordable stainless from Ikea, great pan, and a carbon steel pan. The carbons steel hasn't been to easy to deal with, but the stainless is a cinch. As you said in the video, non-stick has made people used to cooking on ridiculously high temps, dial it down and things work beautifully.

[@sezwo5774]

And its bird safe,-stainless steel. Not some deadly fume producing non-stick coating that will kill your parrots or canaries., and may even poison you. I hear some happy bird chirping in the background of the video. Beautiful. Thanks for the review, ...just bought the exact same model.

[@RichardBlaine]

It really is a wonderful skillet I just LOVE mine! Thanks for watching! Cheers!

[@taskeenzahrabokhari178]

I just ordered this pan, but i am wonderingnif i can cook pancakes and crepes in this pan?

[@armyvets.7365]

We can't even make an over easy eggs without it sticking.

[@fgfg633]

Looks like it would be a pain to clean with all those grooves.

[@RichardBlaine]

Actually it is easier to clean than you think because you are only using medium heat and the scallops act like gratons to release the cooked on food easily! Trust me this is a great stainless pan!

[@Adeline9418]

All you have to do is soak it.

[@marianaa1850]

Steak looks fantastic! How you clean the tfal item after that?

[@BrianKenyon]

What was the cleanup like? I wanted to see how easy or not it was to clean.

[@MrPAULONEAL]

I'm thinking about getting the set. How is this holding up after 2 years?

[@nolandubwells4871]

Me too on the clean up of the pan!

[@RichardBlaine]

Yupper!

[@lonniewest5635]

Wow! Just got this pan for 15 dollars ordering online from target.Pick it up at the store no shipping charge!This pan is excellent, it preform just as well if not better than a lot of my more expensive pans and cleans easily.I season it with canola oil, by putting the oil in the pan and brought it up to smoking point about 5 minutes on medium low, then turn off the heat at let return to room temperature, the wipe excess oil.The food does not stick, I tested with potato's rounds with no oil or butter they lifted easily with a beautiful even sear there was no hot spots.I did another batch covering as much surface of the pan and leaving enough space between the potato rounds so not to steam and I use a small tab of butter, the potato's rounds slid around the pan by swirling the pan, they had a beautiful golden even sear.I wipe the pan with a paper towel brought the heat to medium and let the pan get hot about 5 minutes I added a small flat iron steak it sear evenly and browned really good after about 4 minutes it lifted easily. I flip the steak over and did the other side.I added butter garlic rosemary spooning over the steak.I remove the steak to rest the pan had a good foundation I added beef stock to deglazed the remaining foundation let it reduce and pour over the resting steak.Share the flat iron with my wife really good great crust from the salt the steak was seasoned with using pepper during the last minute of cooking time.The pan clean easily under warm water and soap.Overall I say this pan rates excellent especially for the price.

[@RichardBlaine]

Welcome aboard the Pan wagon! I LOVE this pan and I am glad you do as well and glad you got the great price! Thanks for watching! Cheers!

[@olamachala]

It works very well.

[@bluthian]

I made scrambled eggs with this and got a nice, burnt layer that i couldn't scrape off with my patula because of those ridges.

[@MetaView7]

Can you fry an egg with this pan?

[@qufeng49]

It's 4:30 in the morning and I don't even eat beef and yet here I am.

[@RichardBlaine]

Welcome!

[@KowboyUSA]

I've got some 25 + year old _vintage_ T-Fal skillets. They got nice even heat transfer.

[@RichardBlaine]

Yes they do and the older one's are even better than then newer one's but every now and again you find a winner like this skillet and I am very happy with it! Thanks for checking this one out John!

[@Will4fun]

Is this T-fal skillet heavy? Is there an aluminum core to conduct heat or is it all stainless steel?

[@shekharmoona544]

I think they slightly changed the design of the pan handle.

[@torger7773]

Today I bought this pan. Soon I will try to make the meat as you cooked and also like garlic and onions 😎

[@twodiiefor001]

How's the cleaning of the pan?

[@torger7773]

@@twodiiefor001 I clean with a brush and dishwashing detergent.

[@nadie_te_dice]

Why didn't you seasoned the tefal ?

[@vizcacha5]

David Diego it’s not cast iron. Stainless Steel doesn’t have to be seasoned.

[@infanta55]

I can already see how long you will spend to remove the brown stuff out from the pan.

[@DUMPTHETRUCK]

Wtf this guy said he had no garlic to add to the steak. But at the end he is eating fresh garlic. Also what the hell was that noise during the whole video. I bet he has his wife scrub the shirt out of that burnt pan. You know that doesn’t come clean easy

[@williamjoseph98]

LMAO. i brought this set, and let me tell you, you're are 100% correct in your assessment of having to scrub the shit outta these things to get them clean. LITERALLY EVERYTHING sticks to this damn set. Even after so called "seasoning" them. I returned them the same day I purchased them, only after having to spend a whole damn hour and a half scrubbing that one pan that he is using in the vid. All i was trying to do was sauté some garlic. smh

[@kwstikas82]

It was about time you cooked some Greek style food! Good job, go with more! Too many great recipes for you to add MrEZCooking's touch and share with the world! Opa! ...although I think the garlic cloves were an overkill. omg, aren't you going to work tomorrow? XD

[@RichardBlaine]

I ate some parsley and brushed my teeth twice! :) I used to think the garlic was a bit much to but if you have ever eaten in some Greek households they put out little bowls of garlic to be eaten with all that good food! YUM! Thanks for watching! Cheers and more Greek food to come!

[@IAMRONIN]

Great looking pan, I"m going to have to look into getting one! And that steak...oh God that steak. I'm trying that sometime in the next few days! Thanks for sharing!!!

[@RichardBlaine]

You are more than welcome Ronin! Please let me know what you think about the steak recipe after you make it! The thicker the better! Rock on!

Probably have to get a new pan everytime as food sticks and, I have the same set, anyone with a sand blaster?!

[@keithbettag598]

nice review, nice way to cook a steak, oregano is my go to herb in the kitchen,,,,whats not to like here,,,,thumbs up

[@RichardBlaine]

Thanks Keith I am glad you like! I learned how to make this steak in a little Greek cafe in Albuquerque, New Mexico when I lived there. Simple and easy and deeeeelish! Thanks for checking it out! Cheers!

[@paulabuist567]

To everyone wondering how this pan cleans up: much easier than you think! I bought a set that had the small and twelve inch pans. I used the larger pan to pan fry Red snapper, and used a fair amount of spray, Parsley and Chipotle pepper powder. I had a few small hard to get bits, bit they came off completely with a plastic bristle brush in less than five minutes. I blame the Chipotle powder. Used on medium heat, cleaned when completely cooled.

[@armyvets.7365]

We bought a 12 over set, and did everything as instructed by the manufacturer prior to cooking, hell, now you have to have a power washer to clean them not a dishwasher! Junk status.

[@aliarsenal6136]

How can you eat those raw garlic? I really hate raw garlics. It smells bad.

[@torger7773]

It is a very useful, natural antibacterial agent for the body. After you can eat a slice of lemon, it removes the smell.🍋

[@madtruckamax3341]

I have this pan used it for years it's ok but I prefer cast iron for meat...How long you had that meat my man looks old and brown geeesh you a chef you should know better but it looks good from over here don't know about the smell

[@Rottidog]

Ok, honestly that center cut round cooking for that long almost had me screaming at the screen TAKE IT OUT!! Have to remember you're using a SS pan & the heat isn't as high as we normally use. Cast iron is my favorite steak pan & even a medium heat will damn near make a center round steak into jerky at med heat & above. Never knew my steaks were 'Greek' lol. TY again for a video & for a different version of some garlic. With that butter all heated up I add some fresh garlic slivers salt & crisp them. DAMN yummy they are AND the 5th person in line behind you at the grocery store isn't wondering where that pungent garlic smell is coming from. Hey, wait a sec, you said you didn't get to go shopping & that's why you used garlic granules. Where'd the fresh garlic come from? You DO have a GF or neighbor that's accommodating! Instead of a cup of sugar to borrow you asked for fresh garlic heads. Rottidog is wise beyond his beers! ;-) Cheers Richard & thanks again.

[@RichardBlaine]

I found the garlic at the bottom of my crisper and I really did not know I had any. In traditional Greek households they DO put bowls of fresh garlic bulbs out for people to pop into their faces when they are eating just about anything at all! I don't mind smelling like garlic cuz in keeps the vamps away! :) Thanks for watching! Cheers!

Stupid review. Showed us you cooking a steak and eating it. Nothing about the pan durability or cleaning of it. Doubt I would even buy it due to the textured finish.
