Just found out about this and thought I would share... 5 piece pre-seasoned cast Iron set by lodge.... $65.00 Amazon.com: Lodge L5HS3 5-Piece Pre-Seasoned Cast-Iron Cookware Set: Kitchen & Dining don't forget to go through the monkey if you buy... the tree could use a little fertilizer....
I own them all, great for home cooking. The older cast iron (like Griswold) are my favorite, though. Tough to find the old cast iron, but many yard sales and flea markets may offer them from time to time.
Good deal, thanks. The cast iron is still USA made but the Enameled is made in China @Witch Doctor 01 Lodge : Frequently Asked Questions Are Lodge products made in the USA? All of our foundry Seasoned Cast Iron and our Seasoned Carbon Steel products are manufactured in the USA and always will be. All Enameled Cast Iron products are made in China to our strict quality standards and overseen by an American owned 3rd party inspection company. Our accessories come from multiple sources, some of which are American, and some overseas. Our in-house Quality Assurance Department constantly inspects all items we produce and sell.
That is a real bargain. Was pricing a Lodge lid and it was $35---was at a flea market and found a Wagner frying pan w/lid for $15. Pays to look around. Did a "trick" on the frying pans last week. Took the larger side grinder with a wire cup brush to the outsides. Cut all the crusted crap off back to the metal. Sure looks better and did not lose the seasoning.
