Proudly crafting heirloom-quality skillets and cookware in the USA, Smithey is exactly the kind of brand you want in your kitchen. Their products are not just beautiful, but sourced and made in the USA by their team of expert craftsmen. This 2-piece set includes both a 12" cast iron and carbon steel skillet "that you, your family, and friends will enjoy and rely on for generations." Both retain heat exceptionally well and go from stovetop to oven to table. Both arrive at your door pre-seasoned and ready for cooking. Carbon steel is a bit lighter and heats up a little faster – perfect for the day’s catch of fresh trout to green beans stir-fried from our garden. Our cast iron skillets are a bit deeper and are ideally suited for pan-frying and baking. This set also comes with a full-grain leather skillet sleeve and potholder.
