What do you use your Cast Iron Grill (griddle) Pan for?
I just bought a Lodge Grill Pan, the kind with raised ridges in the bottom. Grilling season is coming to an end and I dont like the taste of burgers fried in a skillet, so I bought this for that purpose. I would like some ideas for other uses. I am thinking about trying to do some scallops or fish on it. Will seafood fall apart on the ridges? How do steaks come out on it? It seems like you can use it for most of the same things as a grill, you have a hot “grate” and radiant heat underneath. Please share your experiences.
You got a good piece of cookware. Lodge is one of the very few brands that actually uses pure iron ingots. many other brands will use recycled iron and have more problems with hot spots.
You can cook just about anything on it. The key is to get the pan/skillet hot prior to adding the protein. I like to put it in the oven at about 450-500 degrees to preheat, then place it over the eye on the stove. Drop your oven to 350 after removing the skillet. If you want to heat it on the eye, let it heat for a good 5-7 minutes before ever putting anything in it.
Lodge skillets are heavy enough to retain a good deal of heat and cook very well. For scallops I would leave it for about a minute, flip, and straight into the preheated oven for 2 more. Steaks would be same process, just 3 minutes at first to get the sear then flip, and about 7-10 minutes in the oven for close to medium.
One of the things to remember about cast iron is that it continues to cook after the heat is removed. Anything left in it will just get more and more done.
