The Alpine Outdoor Collection from Le Creuset is designed especially for use on the grill or over a campfire. Use this skillet to cook meat, eggs, pancakes, hot sandwiches, and more. The raised loop handles offer a secure grip, and the low profile of the pan allows you to close the grill hood over it. Made from enameled cast iron for even heat distribution and superior heat retention. The exterior enamel resists chipping and cracking, and the interior is coated with Le Creuset's protective satin black finish to prevent damage and wear. The interior enamel develops a natural patina with time and use that only improves the performance of this pan. No seasoning is required.
