Lodge Round Griddle 10.5 Inhes Diam 1/2"Deep (L90G3) - Cast Iron, Black

Buy it..you will never regret.....it's Lodge ....the name u can trust.... It's little bit heavy and u have to season it before use as it has some coating on it...takes little bit time to heat and once it get heated it stays heated for long ....be careful as the handle gets very hot while cooking ....use medium flame while cooking ... wash gently with mild soap afterwards ...Use soft scrubber.....Dry well and apply little oil on both sides ...and thats it .....it will serve u a lifetime....Using it for a year now and still it looks brand-new as I take care of it properly....Again i am telling after cooking allow it to cool then wash it , dry it and apply oil....Be aware that within an hour rust will appear on the pan if u don't apply oil.....For seasoning always put oil and heat with high flame till it smokes and reapply oil again once the oil get absorbed . after that u r pan will become nonstick...Do this always before cooking.... Update- using this since 2016 and still looKing new and serving me well....Thanks lodgy

One of my best purchases ever. Have been using this for years and it hasn't failed me. Make sure to not use soap to wash it. Only scrub and plain water.

I’ve using this everyday since a month, it’s working fine in terms of durability , it has to be seasoned every time u wash it. Sturdiness is good. Value for money - it’s very expensive. The only problem there is a problem oil seeps to the sides of the pan, in the middle food gets stuck so adjusting flame n the pan has to be continuously done while cooking and u hv to add oil also so that food doesn’t stick in between .. otherwise it’s good for tawa fries. Roti and paratha gets a little hard when u cook, perfect for dosa and fries. Also a handle cover is imp or else chances r the that you burn urself

Cooking with cast iron is an art. I had previously used lodge cast iron sauce pan and it was very easy to maintain and use. I had assumed a similar experience with this dosa girdle as well. But, this needs a bit of patience. First time i tried dosa it stuck to my pan for the entire morning. I was in half a mind to return it when i went through the reviews below. Someone mentioned that it worked for them after oiling it and letting it get very hot till steam rose. So, once a day, for two days i oiled the pan, and heated it till smoke started rising. On third day i again heated it with a little bit of oil and dabbed it across the pan. The dosas started coming put beautifully. No extra oil was needed and compared to non-stick it consumes very less oil while making dosas. Must have for better iron absorption, but need to treat it with patience and love and will definitely get great results. It is long lasting too, so definitely worth the additional cost over India made brands.

This was my first Lodge cast iron cookware. And I have recently picked up many Indian cast Iron cookware which are brilliant as well. But the quality and finish of Lodge products is a cut above the rest. While I am super please with transitioning to cast iron cookware, I am super excited with Lodge products. The price is on the higher side on account of freight and custom charges otherwise even with the exchange rate of USD it's a great value for money had it not been for the additional charges. Remember to be patient to season any cast iron cookware for a lifetime of exciting cooking. If the Lodge company gives special discount on sets and combos I will buy them all. Past. Keep a watch out for discounts and you can get lucky. Bought other Lodge cast iron cookware on special offers. Super cool for making Eggs and Omelettes totally nonstick and slides right off the skillet. Love every minute cooking with this skillet.

There is nothing on international quality and standards. The heat distribution is uneven - peripheries don't heat evenly; the surface is not perfectly flat - it's marginally elevated in the center. So when you spread the oil, it collects towards the peripheries keeping the center almost dry. And the greatest disappointment was poor seasoning. I seasoned it mildly thinking it was preseasoned. But to my disappointment, everything sticks to it. It's not better than a normal cast iron piece that you can get from your local vendor. MY SUGGESTION: DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY FOR LODGE, RATHER GET ANY OTHER CAST IRON TAWA IN HALF THR PRICE, AND SEASON THAT YOURSELF.

Quality is top notch. Browns food very well. Can sear meats like mutton and chicken on it, before cooking them separately. Can also make Uttapams and Dosas flawlessly. One tiny complaint is that, when I add ghee/oil before the sear, they don't stay in the middle of the tawa, and wander off to one side. But that may also be because my stove is slightly tilted.

The pan I received has some imperfection on the edges (outer surface) on some areas. It looks as though a thin portion has been shaved off - it is not visible from the top though. (Not sure if this is a normal casting issue.) As for the pan itself, whether it is a good investment depends on what you are looking for. The primary reason I went for the Lodge pan is because of its handle. In a space constrained kitchen, it helps in handling/moving the pan quickly if needed when compared to the locally manufactured cast iron dosa pans which all seems to have a small holed protrusion for a handle. (The heavy local pans are superior when it comes to the cooking surface itself as they have a smooth finish. I don't think the pebbly surface of Lodge will ever wear well wnough to match the local pans.) Like other Lodge ware, the cooking surface of the pan is 'pebbly' (uneven). This as such won't be a problem, provided you season the pan well and use it as much as you can. Even a few days of careful use make a lot of difference. (The pre-seasoning is not enough to create a real non stick surface. You can cook on it of course - but it will take some oil initially.). The pan doesn't heat up uniformly - especially over small and medium burners - as is to be expected with cast iron. However, you can move the pan once in a while to counter that issue to some extent. (Once it gets hot, the pan stays hot for a long time.) PS: Please be careful if you have never used pans with non insulated handles (or haven't used one in a long while). There is a good chance of you forgetting that the handles of cast iron pans can get very hot and burning yourself. It takes a while to get used to the pan if you are new to such pans.

Pues no hay mucho que decir, todos los productos Lodge me han resultado muy buenos, ésta plancha me ha funcionado muy bien para hacer huevos estrellados y carnes a la plancha. El secreto de estos productos es lavarlos antes de que se enfríen por completo con agua caliente y un cepillito para eliminar cualquier residuo (yo no uso jabón). Muy importante secarlo y volver a ponerlo en la flama para eliminar cualquier resto de humedad y todavía caliente, aceitar otra vez con una capa muy fina, esto para preservar la cubierta natural antiadherente que se les va formando. Estos sártenes son fabulosos porque entre más los uses, mejor funcionan. No es muy recomendable usarlos al principio con alimentos muy ácidos como tomate verde ó rojo ó algunos chiles porque te quedarías sin cubierta antiadherente al primer uso (aunque hay muchos tutoriales para arreglar esto). En general muy buenos todos estos sártenes y es fantástico que funcionan en flama directa, carbón, leña, inducción, eléctrica, etc. Son todo-terreno.

Product: The product (CI griddle) quality is amazing and robust. It is made of cast iron and very heavy in material. No joints make it much stronger. It was easy to use on electric stove and most ideal for Dosa preparation. the griddle gets no time to get hot and prepares dosa instantly. It is made in USA and the quality is great. Must buy for indoor and outdoor cooking purpose. Delivery and Packaging: The product was shipped by Amazon.ae. I purchased the product yesterday (4 PM) evening and I received it today morning (9 AM). Super fast prime service. The product did not have any brand packaging though, it came in a very protective bubble wrap and carton box. Thank you Amazon.ae

Una plancha excelente, con el plus de calidad Made in Usa. Pros: Tamaño adecuado, gran calidad, no desprende, con el tiempo, fragmentos de recubrimiento que suelen llevar las planchas antiadherentes, cocina sana y un sabor inigualable a los alimentos que se cocinan en ella. De una sola pieza: jamás se aflojará o romperá el mango. A diferencia de la mayoria de planchas de otros materiales, con el tiempo mejoran su rendimiento. Existe la de la carne (con estrias para marcar la pieza) y la reversible pero este modelo concreto es plano, adecuado para el pescado. Contras: Es una pieza de hierro fundido y, por lo tanto, pesada. Aunque ya viene "curada", requiere un mantenimiento constante y, quizá, en el futuro, volverla a curar. Puede encontrarse en la red y en la pagina de Lodge el procedimiento para hacerlo. El mantenimineto cotidiano consiste en lavarla bien despues de cada uso, no restregar con estropajos metalicos muy duros, SECARLA BIEN y untarla con un poco de aceite (por dentro y por fuera). Sin dicho mantenimiento, los alimentos pueden pegarse y el utensilio, oxidarse (es hierro). En definitiva, una buena adquisición para quien sabe lo que compra. Para quien no conoce las sartenes y piezas de hierro fundido, decir que las pruebe.

薪ストーブでピザを焼きたくて購入しました。 おそらく４００度近い温度だとおもうが、あっという間に外カリ、中もちの美味しいピザができました。焦付きも全くなく、IHでもつかえるので、美味しいステーキも簡単に作れました。手入れは、お湯で洗って、オリーブオイルを薄く塗っておくだけなので、簡単です。 当たり前だけど、無茶苦茶重たいので、気を付けないと落としたら大変そうです。
