Jim Beam JB0159 Cast Iron Skillet

Yes, it comes pre-seasoned, meaning it has a layer of oil baked into the iron to prevent rust and provide a basic non-stick surface. You can start cooking with it immediately, though the non-stick properties will improve significantly as you continue to season it through regular use.

Absolutely. Because it is made of cast iron, it is fully compatible with induction cooktops, as well as gas stoves, ovens, and even open campfires.

This skillet is not dishwasher safe. To maintain the seasoning, wash it by hand with hot water and a stiff brush, then dry it thoroughly immediately after cleaning. Avoid soaking it or using harsh detergents, and apply a light coat of oil before storing to prevent rust.

The ridges are designed to sear meat and vegetables, creating those classic grill marks while elevating the food slightly. This allows excess fat and juices to drain away from the food, resulting in a cleaner, more grilled texture rather than a pan-fried one.

The wooden base is strictly for serving. You should never place the wooden base in the oven or on a stovetop; it is designed to protect your table or countertop from the heat of the skillet once you remove it from the heat source.
