No.8 Cast Iron Skillet

Field Company makes cast iron the way the great American foundries did — only better. Each pan is machined smooth and cast with thinner walls, so it's noticeably lighter and easier to reach for every day, while still delivering the even, heat-retaining sear cast iron is loved for. Best of all there's no PFAS, Teflon, or synthetic nonstick coating — just iron pre-seasoned with organic grapeseed oil, building a naturally nonstick surface that improves the more you cook. Made in the USA and guaranteed for a lifetime, the No.8 is the versatile everyday skillet you'll pass down. The cleanest kind of cookware: nothing to flake, nothing to off-gas, built to outlive us all.

Materials & construction: 100% raw cast iron, sand-cast in the USA from recycled iron using traditional green-sand casting. The cooking surface is machined smooth in the vintage style, then pre-seasoned with three coats of organic grapeseed oil for a naturally non-stick, ready-to-cook finish. Thinner, lighter sidewalls than typical modern cast iron. Free from PFOA, PTFE, PFAS, and synthetic non-stick coatings.

Before first use, give your pre-seasoned skillet a quick rinse and dry — it's ready to cook. Cast iron becomes more naturally nonstick the more you use it, so cook often and break it in with seasoning-friendly dishes like cornbread, roasted vegetables, or anything fried. To clean (the Field Method): rinse with warm water and loosen food with a brush (a little dish soap is fine), then use a chain mail scrubber to scuff away stuck-on bits. Heat the pan on the stovetop until fully dry, apply a small dab of seasoning oil, and wipe all surfaces to a thin, matte finish. Avoid soaking, the dishwasher, and prolonged contact with acidic foods to keep your seasoning strong.
