A big cast iron pan and two smaller carbon steel pans. I think I'll be able to pass them on to my grandkids.
I now have many cast iron pots and pans. Enameled and bare. And a couple more on the way.
After reading up about non-stick, I'll never buy it again. I think cast iron is much safer.
And because it is so durable, cast iron is actually a great value, even more so if you buy less expensive brands or used. It truly can be buy it for life.
Good cast iron is the true BIFL... It'll last your life, then your kid's, then their kid's, then theirs and so on... It needs to be seriously mistreated and neglected for a very long time until it becomes unusable
Short of it cracking in half, there's basically nothing that can be done to cast iron that an angle grinder can't fix.
And if it does crack in half, well, that just means it's time to break out the welder! 🤪
