Arrived quickly. Beautiful piece of cookware. Heats up evenly and retains heat very well. Despite it being a large pan it’s pretty light weight. I made chicken thighs in a mustard sauce and it seared the meat beautifully. It can go from the stovetop to the oven straight to the table. Very happy with my purchase.
Not only is this pan beautiful to look at, it is a joy to use. I've used it in the oven and on the stovetop with great results every time. It is easy to clean which is a real plus.
I knew something was missing from my life but didn’t realize it was this skillet. I love it like a first born. The Staub gods definitely blessed us mortals with this one. I’ve never achieved such a perfect sear! This skillet is so multifunctional. I can cook anything in it with a good preheat. I’ve gifted this skillet and plan to keep it on my default gifting list!
I also own the 10” fry pan which is now rather neglected because I always reach for this one unless I need both. If you’re on the fence about the fry pan or skillet, I highly recommend the skillet. The taller sides help with splatter and hold more volume. The flatter sides allow more bottom surface area. I can cook a small roast (~2.5 lbs) or two generous steaks in this skillet without overcrowding and room for a bit of roasted veges with a roast. Yum!
The skillet seemed heavy, but I quickly got used to the weight! It’s definitely less of a workout to wash than a cocotte.
Side note: I do recommend getting a slide-on handle holder or using a kitchen towel because the handle can get burning hot!
