  1. The one thing that has changed since this video was made is that Lodge started producing a series of USA made enameled products, also. You can still buy their more budget line that are enameled in China, or pony up for the ones made in the US. The price difference is pretty large, but it depends on how much you care about where it's made. I personally own a few Staub pieces, so I'm no stranger to saving up for a quality piece, but I wouldn't mind one day adding a US made enameled Lodge to my cooking rack.

  2. This is neat in it's own way. But I just watched a blacksmith hammer a frying pan out of a sheet of 1/4 inch looking steel. and made the handle out of the same metal along with a gorgeous piece of wood. Somehow the cast iron pan just doesn't look as awesome.

  3. Wow their prices are very fair considering the manual effort you see here. Problem is you can also get away with a cheap cast iron frying pan at least, just be sure to re season it yourself.
