[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Not too heavy and heats really evenly. Cleans super easily, even with baked on cheese. Sears nicely and the little pour spouts make moving sauces out the the pan a cinch.
This Staub 12" skillet really gets a work out in my house. Use it almost daily, from breakfast to dinner! Start the day with pancakes, and sausage which brown up perfectly in this pan. Steak, hamburgers, fish for dinner and once again a great pan for a beautiful sear. Can be used in the oven, on the stove top and even on my outdoor grill. Nice spouts on the sides to spill off grease and liquid when ready to serve. Cleans really easy, and looks brand new, despite how many times we've used it!
4 to 5 cuts of beef, pork or fish no problem. Heats as evenly as anything I've used for predictability. Classic Staub Cherry-red and black enameled interior cleans and stays looking new. pouring spouts are quite helpful.
☆☆☆☆☆ ☆☆☆☆☆5 out of 5 stars. Alamedagirl · 11 days ago I love to use this bright cherry red frypan for chicken breasts, dredge in seasoned flour, skin side down with some butter in the pan. Fry until it sizzles, then move to the oven for 20 minutes. Turn the breasts over and let them rest on the rib bones, bake another 30 minutes. The drippings then make an amazing pan gravy. Whenever the kids see this pan they always ask for the baked chicken in a pan!
I like the larger size of the 12" for baking as well as savory dishes. Corn bread, cakes, dutch babys, all turn out beautifully in the staub fry pan. It is perfect for a family of 4 chili, pasta dishes, grilled chese, hamburger, patty melts. The list goes on and on.
