Blacklock Cast Iron Grill Pan Square, 30.5cm American Ingredients|Pots & Pans

Use Lodge Blacklock’s cast iron square grill pan to sear steak, grill tuna steaks and halloumi cheese. The high ridges on the base of the pan give your food distinctive charred grill lines as well as letting fat drain away when cooking – the key difference between grilling and frying.

Lodge’s Blacklock range boasts three key differences to other cast iron cookware:

• it’s triple seasoned,
• lightweight,
• and has raised handles.

The triple seasoning means you’ve already got a head start to building up a natural patina when seasoning your pan at home. It’s naturally non-stick and easy to clean. The Blacklock range is cast thinner than other cast iron cookware, making it lighter and easier to lift and handle – great for everyday use. Plus, the handles are extended and raised for added comfort – this also helps the handles stay cooler for longer.

As well as meat, fish and vegetables, a cast iron grill pan is fantastic for cooking flatbreads and pittas – once preheated, the cast iron stays hot, so your homemade breads can be light and puffy in just a few minutes.

This durable grill pan can be used in the oven, on the stove, under the grill as well as on induction cookers.

This cast iron grill pan measures 30.5cm.

About Lodge Blacklock Cast Iron

American brand Lodge Cast Iron has been producing cast iron cookware since 1896. Based in Pittsburg, the family-run business uses an automated moulding process to create each piece of cookware. First, iron is heated to 2,000°C in the furnaces. Next comes the casting – a moulding machine creates up to 400 sand moulds per hour, then the liquified metal is poured into the mould. Once the cast iron has cooled, a conveyor shakes off the moulding sand to be recycled, then scrubs the cookware. Finally, each piece is given a deep clean.

The joy of Lodge’s Blacklock cast iron cookware range is that each piece comes pre-seasoned. The final step of the process involves spraying each piece with soybean oil, then baking at a high temperature. This makes each piece ready to use straight away.
