The top-selling 10 ¼" No.8 Skillet—our lighter, smoother American-made take on the standard-size cast iron skillet—packaged with the three tools we actually use to keep cast iron clean and well-seasoned.

The No.8 Field Skillet is a meticulously-designed smoother, lighter cast iron pan reminiscent of the best vintage American skillets. This is the closest living relative to vintage cast iron: light enough for everyday cooking, with a smooth, naturally non-stick cooking surface.
A great cast iron skillet should be the pan you reach for most often. We've optimized the skillet's weight and handle ergonomics to make it easy to maneuver around the stovetop, oven, and grill, while retaining the heft needed for high-heat searing. No.8 is the standard and most common cast iron skillet size; it's a pan made to do everything, and the size most likely to earn its place on your stovetop.
Field Skillets match traditional vintage sizing conventions, where the “number” corresponds not to diameter in inches, but to the burner ring size on an old-fashioned wood-burning stove. That means a No.8 skillet is actually larger than 8 inches. (It’s tricky, we know.)
Here’s how we measure up:
- 10 ¼" top diameter
- 8 ¾" cooking surface
- 4.5 lb total weight
A well-seasoned cast iron pan achieves a natural non-stick surface without harmful chemicals or engineered coatings. Your skillet will arrive pre-seasoned, so it’s ready to cook right away.
Cast iron gets hot and stays hot, making it the best material for stovetop searing, oven-roasting vegetables, and sweet or savory baked goods.
Field cast iron cookware is compatible with all stovetop burner types, including glass and ceramic induction ranges.
Field Cast Iron is 100% Made in the USA. We work with recycled iron sourced from American vendors, and pour our cast iron cookware using green sand castings—just like the most celebrated vintage cast iron manufacturers, Griswold and Wagner.
Chain Mail Scrubber made from USA Stainless Steel, manufactured in the USA. Natural Fiber Brush made with oiled beech wood handle and stiff natural union fiber bristles; Made in Germany, from fully biodegradable and compostable materials.
Like all great tools, cast iron cookware gets better with time and use. To keep your Field Skillet in top condition:
- Pre-heat on low for up to 5 minutes before you start cooking.
- Use acidic ingredients sparingly.
- Hand-wash only. Never in the dishwasher.
- Towel dry or heat to dry on the stovetop. Never drip-dry or store wet.
Cleaning with the Cast Iron Care Kit:
- Rinse out the pan and remove loose food with brush. Use a chain mail scrubber to dislodge any remaining gunk and gently scuff the cooking surface and side walls.
- Heat the pan on the stovetop for a few minutes to evaporate moisture. If necessary, wipe up remaining moisture with a paper towel.
- Apply a dab (about ¼ tsp) of Seasoning Oil. Use a paper towel or rag to rub over all surfaces of the pan, inside and out. Wipe away excess oil to leave a dry, matte finish.

Natural Fiber Brush
Wash cast iron cookware with warm water, using the Natural Fiber Brush to remove loose food residue.
Soap up if you want to! Your cast iron can handle it.
Chain Mail Scrubber
Use the stainless steel Chain Mail Scrubber to get rid of stubborn food residue.
Even if your skillet is relatively clean, we recommend gently scuffing the surface and side walls of your skillet, preparing it to accept new and stronger seasoning.
Field Seasoning Oil
Dry your cast iron, then apply a thin coat of Seasoning Oil to all surfaces—including the side walls and bottom.
Even a thin coating will help ensure that you're building new, resilient seasoning every time you heat your skillet. Cook often, and apply after every use!
