The Lodge 9-inch cast iron skillet is a pre-seasoned iron pan made in the US, ready to cook on straight out of the box. It holds heat well and spreads it evenly, and it works on the stove, in the oven, on the grill, over a campfire and on induction cooktops up to 500°F. The 9-inch size is smaller than the 10.25-inch Lodge most people start with, so it suits single servings, eggs, cornbread and small pies. Rivals like Victoria and Field cost more and weigh less; Lodge is heavier and rougher-cast but widely trusted as the value pick, and owners say it gets more nonstick with use.

Owners treat the Lodge as the default cast iron skillet: cheap, tough and improving with use. Most say the factory seasoning works but is not fully nonstick until several rounds of cooking and oiling.
The Lodge 9-inch cast iron skillet is made in America from iron and oil. Lodge has made this style of skillet for 125 years. The cooking surface is naturally seasoned with 100% natural vegetable oil and is ready to use.
Cast iron retains heat and heats evenly. The skillet can be used in the oven, on the stove, on the grill, or over a campfire. It works for searing, sautéing, baking, broiling, braising, and grilling. It is also a good size for baking pies.
The skillet works on induction cooktops. It is made with non-toxic, PFOA- and PTFE-free material and is rated up to 500 degrees F.
