Borough Furnace Frying Skillet

Yes, it comes pre-seasoned with organic flaxseed oil. While you can start cooking immediately, the non-stick properties will continue to improve as you build up more layers of seasoning through regular use.

The forked handle is engineered to dissipate heat more effectively than a solid handle. While it stays cooler for longer, it is still cast iron, so you should always use a towel or oven mitt when handling it during extended cooking.

Absolutely. Because it is made from 100% cast iron, it is fully compatible with induction surfaces, as well as gas, electric, and even open fire.

This skillet is not dishwasher safe. To maintain the seasoning, wash it by hand with warm water and a mild soap if needed, dry it thoroughly on the stove over low heat, and apply a very light coat of oil before storing.

At 6 lbs, this skillet is substantial but manageable. The inclusion of an oversized helper handle makes it much easier to maneuver, especially when transferring the pan from the stovetop to the oven.

Borough Furnace finishes their pans to be quite smooth, which helps with oil adhesion and creates a better non-stick surface than the rough, pebbly texture found on many mass-produced cast iron pans.
