Lodge Blacklock Cast-Iron

The Blacklock line features a thinner, lightweight construction that makes the pans easier to handle without sacrificing the heat retention cast iron is known for. They also come triple-seasoned from the factory, providing a more refined, non-stick surface right out of the box.

These pans are seasoned with natural vegetable oil to create a non-stick surface, but they are not coated with synthetic chemicals like Teflon. With proper care and regular use, the seasoning will continue to improve, making the surface increasingly non-stick over time.

No, these skillets are not dishwasher safe. To maintain the seasoning and prevent rust, you should hand wash them with warm water and a mild soap, then dry them thoroughly and apply a light coat of oil before storing.

Yes, the extended handle design is engineered to dissipate heat more effectively than standard cast iron handles. While they stay cooler for longer during stovetop cooking, we still recommend using a mitt or handle cover when moving the pans from a hot oven.

Yes, the Blacklock collection is fully compatible with all heat sources, including induction, gas, electric, and halogen cooktops.

No, this cookware is completely PFAS-free and PFOA-free. It is made from traditional cast iron, ensuring a nontoxic cooking surface that is safe for your family.
