I'm in the market for a larger cast dutch oven or deep skillet, this one tops out a three chicken breasts or at a 2.5 lb. chuck roast.

There are some nice larger vintage ones for sale here sometimes https://castandclarabell.com/collections/new-arrivals-restored-vintage-cast-iron-cookware

Thanks Dave. I looked them over, but $500.00 plus or minus is way more than I will go. I'll get a Lodge or maybe a Smithey or Field on a sale.

They charge a premium for sure! Yeti has a 14” for $325

Love a good bull buster, but what's in the skillet?

That’s chicken skin I was rendering into cracklins.

my ribeye and small pickeral fillet fryer, one I wish I kept was my old 21" across or 20" can't remember but when we would meet and camp for the may long weekend pickeral run it was heavily used,could do breakfast for 10 people no problem,the 3 pounds of lard used to cook 40 lbs of fish probably wasn't heart healthy,then throw sand and water in and clean,but lugging that brute around was labor intensive so was happy to see it go.you could almost do a whole caribou stew in it.

Prepping a Martin skillet for a peach pie. Knives there for glamor shot only.


Finished product. My crust weaving could use some work haha.

That pie had better not stick if it knows what is good for it...

You guys have totally inspired me to break out the cast iron this weekend and cook something. Not sure what yet but it will happen.

Looks pretty damn good to me.

Enameled cast iron counts here, I hope!

Good job they're not in one of my pans..... I always heat them up before putting anything in them- olive oil, butter but those two look tasty enough to chew on-especially that City Stock, kind of appealing glaze to it already, crackling It's a wonderful pattern, I only have a 'base model ' in Micarta but really enjoy using it, would like to get the CC version but at the moment, not possible.
