Your Skillet Belongs on a Grill

A cast iron skillet is the ultimate outdoor cooking tool. With roots deeply planted in early American traditions from open hearth cooking to chuckwagons, cooking outdoors with cast iron has many benefits — cast iron's resilience under high temperatures and heat retention properties make it incredibly functional over open flame. Bringing cast iron outside to the grill allows you to use fire and smoke as ingredients and bring familiar and trusted tools to the social scene around the grill or fire pit.

Beyond burgers and steaks.

The versatility of cast iron allows you to cook nearly your entire menu outside, saving you the trouble of shuttling back and forth between your indoor kitchen and the grill.

Veggies

Gone are the days of asparagus and onion slices falling through the grill grates. Toss your veggies with a bit of oil and your favorite seasonings, then cook to perfection in your skillet. Need a little steam? Add a cast iron lid to make your your veggies even more tender.

Seafood

A well-seasoned cast iron skillet offers a naturally non-stick cooking surface, perfect for delicate seafood like a flaky fish or seared scallops.

Braises and sauces

Whether you want to melt some queso in a No.4 Skillet, or slowly braise a huge batch of chicken legs in a No.16 Double Handled Skillet, a well-seasoned cast iron skillet can handle these efforts with ease on your outdoor grill.

Deep Frying

Say goodbye to indoor smoke and grease, and say hello to alfresco cooking of fried fish tacos, stuffed squash blossoms, crispy chicken, and state fair-worthy funnel cakes.

Baking

Got a grill with a lid? Now you've got an outdoor oven. Browned butter cornbread and strawberry rhubarb pie top our favorite things to bake in summer. And the heat retention of a cast iron skillet will deliver a golden brown crispy crust.
