$14.74 Mainstays Cast Iron Skillet Oven Safe Pre-Seasoned Iron Black, 12 inch
This Mainstays 12-inch Cast Iron Skillet is actually pretty solid for what it costs — not fancy, but super dependable. It’s pre-seasoned, so you can start cooking right away without a ton of prep.
You can use it on literally anything — induction, gas, electric, even over a campfire or on the grill. It’s oven-safe, too, which means you can sear something then throw it in to finish. The skillet is pretty heavy (as cast-iron should be), but it holds heat like a dream. There’s a helper handle, which is clutch when you’re moving a hot, heavy pan. It has a pour lip, so if you’re making something saucy or with fat, you can pour without spilling too much.
