I like the look of that lid, beautiful! A chicken fryer is a nice deep pan, I find it's useful for much more than just frying chicken. Plus, the lid fits other pans too.

Yes it is actually part of the recipe for using the butter :)

You put about 5 Tbsp of butter in the pan, then swirl it in an open pan or brush it for the wedge pan after it melts.. You pour off about 4 Tbsp into the batter leaving the remaining in the now preheated pan :)
So you preheat the pan, melt the butter for the recipe, and coat the pan all at the same time

Purty Slick Huh :D

Quartered lengthwise, cutting the veins out. 1/4" squares. Keeps the flavor, adds color, and doesn't mess up the cornbread texture.

Well Now :)

Cast-iron skillet company coming to Red Bay – The Red Bay News


http://www.legacycastiron.com/

They look to be a nice skillet although a bit high priced for a 10" skillet

Did you see anything saying if Legacy was going to cast the skillet themselves? If they are machining their skillets it makes me wonder if they are buying skillets from a company like Lodge and modifying them.

That was my first thought too. The do have a Lodge look to them

I'll order one when my Griswolds and Lodge's wear out :rofl2:

I like the idea of the machining on the cooking surface but these seem more like a decorative piece to me at first impression with the bottoms being fancy.

How would large and in some examples looking relatively sharp edges in the bottom designs reflect in heat transfer and stress from expansion and contraction if these were used every day?
