Two handles, more surface, same foundry since 1896. The bigger sibling to our everyday skillet.
The 10.25" skillet has one long loop handle. This one has two — a loop handle stamped "1896" on one side and "LODGE" on the other, built so you can lift a full pan with both hands instead of fighting the weight with one.
More surface area means more food per batch, and the dual handles make it stable enough to move straight from a camp grill grate to a table without a potholder fumble.
Lodge states on its own site: "We ship an average of one-million pounds of iron product each week—all melted, poured, molded, finished and packaged right here in South Pittsburg, Tennessee, our home for over 120 years." Read the source on lodgecastiron.com → Retrieved 2026-09-24. Same foundry, same claim as our skillet pick below — this is Lodge's dual handle pan specifically, not a separate product line.
If the 10.25" skillet is your everyday pan for one or two, this is the one you reach for when you're cooking for a crowd — more surface for a full pound of bacon, a bigger cut of meat, or a skillet meal that needs room to breathe.
Owned and used by our own founder, alongside the 10.25" skillet — same foundry, same seasoning routine, different job.
