’The OG’ was inspired by Sam the Cooking Guy’s all-time favorite piece of cookware, his grandmother’s vintage cast iron pan - naturally non-stick, ridiculously durable, and endlessly useful.
We updated this kitchen classic with modern details to bring you the ultimate everyday cast iron skillet. Thoughtfully designed by Sam the Cooking Guy.Cast iron cookware is virtually indestructible and built to last a lifetime. Unlike most things, this skillet will just keep getting better and better with age and continued use. Here’s our guide to treating it nicely:
seasoning |
care/cleaning |
Your reward for proper seasoning and care is a family heirloom-in-the-making that can be passed down for generations. In fact, that’s why we imprinted the year it was cast on the bottom of our pan… a detail Sam wishes Grandma Jenny's pan had, and something your children/grandchildren/great grandchildren will definitely appreciate!
Cast iron is VERSATILE AF - the master of heat distribution, it can easily go from stovetop to oven to open flame (and back again). In fact, there’s not much you can’t do with this 12” skillet, but it’s especially great for:
|
SEARING steak, chops, salmon - and more |
ROASTING veggies, game (this pan fits a whole chicken) |
BAKING biscuits, cornbread, pies & cakes |
| DEEP FRYING | PAN-FRYING | SAUTÉING |
|
STEAMING |
BRAISING | SIMMERING |
| INDOOR/OUTDOOR |
can be used on a grill and/or open flame (ie: loves to go camping) |
