I love my iron skillet! I’m not going to lie, there was a bit of a learning curve when I first started using it but once you get the hang of it you’ll never want to cook on anything else!!!

I inherited my grandma’s iron skillet when she passed away. I use it daily. Just knowing that her hands touched it and she prepared so many meals in it makes me feel connected to her.
