Cast Iron pots and pans

[NightRunner]

Evening all,

I'm looking to pick a set up. Are there any others to consider other than le Creuset?

Cheers

Loads.

TK Maxx and outlet centres are the places to go looking.

I think get larger than you think you need, though bear in mind SWMBO may not be able to lift them.

Lodge is an American company but have UK outlets

I have one of their small skillets and its very good, however they are heavy. Not as nice looking as as le creuset though.

Sainsburys also do a range which I have heard good things about

Cheers,

Function will win over looks in this household! It'll only be being used by powerfully built multi-directorship types anyway.

I'll call by TX Max in the morning I think.

Dunelm Mill do cast iron stuff at good prices.

Staub. Better than LC IMO.

Yes. If I didn't have 8 or 9 LC cast iron items already, I would by Staub.

That said, the price of LC these days has jumped alot over the years. I think I only paid around 30 quid for LC 20cm casserole pot only 8 years ago.

I have an IKEA caserole pot that works well enough at a fraction of the price of an LC.
