Lodge Blacklock Grill Pan

Triple-seasoned means the pan has been seasoned three times at the factory, creating a more durable, non-stick surface straight out of the box. It significantly reduces the likelihood of food sticking during your first few uses compared to standard pre-seasoned cast iron.

Yes, the Blacklock series is engineered to be thinner and lighter than Lodge's traditional cast iron cookware. This makes it much easier to maneuver on the stovetop and lift in and out of the oven without sacrificing the heat retention cast iron is known for.

No, this pan is not dishwasher safe. Like all cast iron, it should be hand-washed with warm water and a mild soap, then dried thoroughly and lightly oiled to maintain its seasoning and prevent rust.

The extended handle design is intended to dissipate heat more effectively than a standard short handle, keeping it cooler for longer while you cook. However, because it is made of solid cast iron, it will eventually get hot if left on a burner for an extended period, so it is always wise to keep a pot holder or handle cover nearby.

Yes, this pan is fully compatible with induction cooktops, as well as gas, electric, halogen, and oven heat sources. Its flat base ensures good contact with induction surfaces for even heating.

The integrated pour spouts allow you to easily drain excess grease or pan drippings into a container without spilling down the sides of the pan. This makes cleanup faster and helps keep your stovetop cleaner while you cook.
