Best Carbon Steel Pan? I Tested de Buyer, Lodge, Matfer & More

Video Description

Which carbon steel pan is the best? To find out, I tested 8 of the most popular carbon steel pans on the market, including Lodge, de Buyer, Matfer Bourgeat, Made In, Strata, and Smithey. After cooking with them for months and comparing all the key specs, I put them through a series of controlled tests. I measured their durability, heat retention, heat conduction, food release, and much more. I’ll show you how they performed, what they're best at, and where they fall short. You'll see which brands live up to the hype, and which ones aren't worth your money. *****Products Featured in This Video***** Disclaimer: We may earn a fee if you buy via the affiliate links below (at no extra cost to you).
