11" Carbon Steel Skillet - The Original

Sale price  $225.00 Regular price 

American carbon steel, formed and finished by hand in Gilmer, Texas. Guaranteed for life, so it's the last skillet this size you'll ever need.

Carbon steel is easier than you think

It shows up seasoned and ready to cook. Here's the whole routine after you cook:

  1. Wash it. Soap is fine.
  2. Towel dry it, then set it on the burner for a minute.
  3. Wipe on a thin coat of oil while it's warm.

That's it. Just don't soak it, run it through the dishwasher, or leave it sitting in the sink.

Got a rust spot? Scrub it off, dry it on the burner, oil it, and keep cooking. And when it starts turning blotchy brown and black, that's seasoning building up. It's supposed to do that.

This is my new favorite pan! I love that I can use it on the stove, on the grill, in the oven, or over a campfire - the versatility is great. I literally look for things to make in it at this point!

Love it. Using it in my kitchen and feels like it will last longer than me. Scramble fried some hamburger and it washed up so easily. Can't wait to keep using it. Love that i can use any utinsel with it and that there is non non scratch coating to ruin. Highly reccomend this pan! Worth the money.

I absolutely love my 11” carbon steel cooking pan from Texas Pan Company! It’s the perfect size for everyday cooking and feels very sturdy and well made. It heats evenly, cooks beautifully, and has quickly become one of my go-to pans in the kitchen. You can definitely tell it’s made with quality in mind. I’m very happy with my purchase and would definitely recommend Texas Pan Company!

Super solid pan! I was lucky enough to get one during the pre order and have been using it for a few weeks now and have been loving it! I personally like cooking in it more than my cast iron pans especially because of the weight! Highly recommend!

I have cooked with standard Cast Iron in the past. This skillet is a whole different world. I love it. It is very well made, easy to to season and once you have it figured out, it is amazing. I like how the heat is evenly distributed and how you can adjust and regulate the temperature quickly. Cleaning it is easy (thank you for the supplied cheat sheet). So far I've only used it for fried chicken - but I will be using it to make Battered Walleye this week. In the menu there will be Fried Steak, Mixed vegetables and I might use it to cook rice. It is an heirloom piece. I am very glad I got it.

A very solid built pan that is easy to use and clean! I recommend this to my friends. Also don’t have to worry about toxic materials like you do with cheap nonstick pans.

Great over an open flame. I'd even make room to take it backpacking. Good in a kitchen too

I’m a local business that has visited their shop. Every pan is touched by people who care about their product. Each pan is hand crafted the old fashion way, one at a time. The quality control is unmatched, second to none. If you want a pan to last for generations, that was Made in America, look no further! And their people are top notch! TPC is a great small company doing it the right way!

What an amazing pan. Not as heavy as cast iron but all the same qualities. It works on my stove top and in the oven. It is also great for an open fire when camping. What a versatile pan. It cleans up easily and keeps its seasoning. I highly recommend this pan from the Texas Pan Company and I look forward to a smaller version in the near future.
