Field Skillets arrive with two coats of grapeseed oil pre-seasoning, so you can start using your pan right away. The best way to build up seasoning is just by cooking with your skillet; each time you use your pan, it will develop a little more seasoning on its surface. Dishes like cornbread, roasted vegetables or anything fried are particularly good at this.

All cast iron skillets take a little time to become truly non-stick, and every pan develops seasoning differently, depending on how often (and what) you cook. Whether it takes a few months, or more, time and use are always the key to getting that slick, even seasoning you’re looking for.

We recommend reading through this page for more information on how to break in your Field Skillet and begin the seasoning process. And if you’d like to go the extra mile and try your hand at oven seasoning, we recommend following our cast iron seasoning instructions.

Using too much oil when you season your pan, or just cooking with a lot of oil, can sometimes leave a sticky residue or spider-web pattern on the surface of your skillet. This raised, sticky stuff is just baked-on oil residue, or oil that didn’t fully polymerize and bond with the pan. In most cases, continuing to cook will take care of this, as any oil residue becomes incorporated into new layers of seasoning.

Let’s get this out of the way first: cast iron can rust. That means no soaking, no drip-drying, and never put it in the dishwasher.

We’ve put together a list of simple steps that will make cleaning your cast iron easy, and help you build up sturdy seasoning. You can find our step-by-step guide to cleaning your cast iron cookware here.

Yes! Field Skillets perform well on a variety of stovetop burner types — including glass-top electric and induction burners.

Our heat ring is designed to make sure the Field Skillet remains balanced as it heats up on glass or ceramic flat cooktops. At just 0.04” of clearance, it won’t interfere with cooking performance or lose any power from electric or induction heat elements, particularly since induction is activated through magnetics and iron is a magnetic element.

For best results on any burner, we recommend pre-heating your skillet at low to medium heat for up to 5 minutes before use.

Absolutely — we’re huge fans of outdoor and live-fire cooking.
