Have you ever noticed the difference between cooking bacon in cast iron and in a regular old non-stick pan?
It makes a huge difference. Monstrous difference. Monumental difference. Life-altering. Get it?
I wouldn’t have taken this bet if you’d have asked me last week. Bacon crisps up nice and crunchy in a regular old non-stick skillet just [...]

Le Creuset Big Ass Pot
I just got this! And then I made this!
I’ve got to tell you the story about the day my life changed.
I have wished for and coveted a Le Creuset enameled cast iron french oven for years now, but would never spend the cash on a pot. A pot. Who has that kind of money to [...]

Lodge Color Enamel Cast Iron 10 inch Square Grill Pan
I wish I had an induction cooktop, because I hear stories that they keep the kitchen cooler and are more energy efficient. But especially because they keep the kitchen cooler and with our temps, any coolness is welcome.
The problem, besides the expense of a new cooktop, is that all pans don’t work on these [...]

Lodge Logic Pre-Seasoned Muffin/Cornbread Pan
Cornbread in cast iron is perfection. Slap on some butter and I can hardly keep my hands off (read: I try to eat it all before the kids can get to it.) We all want the outside pieces of cornbread because the crunchy crust combined with the moist interior is worth fighting for. Looks like [...]

Staub Coq Au Vin with Rooster Handle
I have been an exceedingly great mom this year. Really. And, I’m pretty sure that the Mother’s Day Fairy uses the same precise method as Santa for decisions about which mothers have been good or bad. For her list.
I believe she bases this decision purely on the level of destruction in our children’s bedrooms. Clothes [...]

Battle of the Dutch Ovens
The other day, my friend Merri sent me a cryptic email, Please find me a dutch oven. I think she’s going to secretly make me a tasty surprise and bring it over for dinner one night next week, so I’d better get on it. She’ll probably even leave me the pan as a gift for [...]

Staub Self-Basting 5-Qt. Cocotte
This is on MY Christmas wish list….you know, the stuff I buy for myself while I’m shopping online for others. Don’t worry, I’ll wrap it, put in under the tree and earn an academy award when I open it…Sweetie, how did you KNOW I wanted this? So great to see his look of WTF?
Besides the [...]
Lodge Seasoned Cast Iron Skillets: Cook You Up Some Grub
There really is NO competition when it comes to cast iron. Lodge is it. They have been around for something like 4,000 years…OK, its 110 years, but, its a really long time. You don’t stay around that long by doing a “half-assed job”, as mom used to say. (Disclaimer: Mom says she’s [...]
