MegaChef Skillet Cast Iron Cookware

Yes, each piece is pre-seasoned at the factory, so you can start cooking immediately. However, many home cooks prefer to add an extra layer of seasoning before the first use to further enhance the non-stick surface.

Absolutely. Because these pans are made of cast iron, they are naturally magnetic and work perfectly on induction cooktops, as well as gas, electric, and glass surfaces.

No, you should never put cast iron in the dishwasher. The harsh detergents and prolonged exposure to water will strip the seasoning and cause the metal to rust. Hand wash with warm water and a mild soap, then dry thoroughly.

This set is oven-safe up to 450°F. This makes it ideal for recipes that start on the stovetop and finish in the oven, like cornbread or seared steaks.

Yes, the handles are part of the solid cast iron construction and will get very hot on the stovetop or in the oven. Always use a thick oven mitt or silicone handle cover when handling the cookware.

After washing and drying your cookware, apply a very thin layer of neutral cooking oil to the surface while the pan is still slightly warm. Buff it with a paper towel until the surface looks matte, not greasy, to prevent rust and maintain the non-stick finish.
