Karbon Steel Paella Pan

While this pan is specifically designed for charcoal grills like the Kamado Joe, it can be used on gas stovetops. However, ensure the burner size is large enough to heat the base evenly, as the 18-inch diameter may cause uneven heating on smaller burners.

The pan comes pre-seasoned, so you can start cooking right away. Over time, you should continue to maintain the seasoning by lightly oiling the surface after cleaning to preserve the natural non-stick properties.

With an 18-inch diameter, this pan is compatible with most large-format charcoal grills, including Kamado Joe and Big Green Egg models. We recommend measuring your grill grate diameter to ensure you have enough clearance for the handles.

To maintain the pan, wash it with warm water and a soft brush or sponge. Avoid using harsh detergents or putting it in the dishwasher, as these can strip the seasoning; always dry it thoroughly and apply a thin layer of oil before storing.

The dimpled base is designed to improve heat distribution and prevent warping when exposed to high temperatures. It also helps create the 'socarrat'—the prized crispy bottom layer of rice—by ensuring consistent contact with the heat source.
