 Daily Use Skillet Apr 30, 2009
By T. R.
Love this American made cast iron skillet for one or two eggs. I make "Egg McMuffins" with this. It's also a great size to make a little frittata. Whatever you make will fit into a muffin or sandwich bread. I plan to make individual corn bread. I'm thinking of more things to make...I'm addicted!
I would advise everyone to buy the lid, that way things cook more evenly top and bottom.
The only thing is that I think you should still season it even though it says it's pre-seasoned. I had things stick so pre-season or use enough oil to prevent sticking.

I wouldn't get this without the lid. Dec 09, 2009
By K. Robertson
This skillet is very small; You won't be able to cook much in it. The one advantage, is that it's perfectly shaped to make an egg for a breakfast sandwich, when used with the lid. Besides that, you could toast spices, melt butter, make an individual brownie, or reheat a single biscuit.
I respectfully disagree about being able to make a grilled cheese sandwich in this. You can't; It's too small.
I tried cooking 3 sausage links with this. Due to the small size, they ended up "deep frying" in their own grease, which I don't like. I'd recommend the 8 inch skillet for that purpose.
I was able to find another good use; roasting garlic cloves on the stovetop, using the lid. Peel the cloves, add olive oil, and cook for an hour or more on very low heat.
My conclusion is, if you want to roast garlic or make perfectly shaped eggs for breakfast sandwiches, get this skillet, and be sure to also purchase the lid for even top/bottom heating! Otherwise, get the 6 inch round, or 5 inch square wonder skillet, which actually has more cooking area and you CAN cook a grilled cheese sandwich. I wish Lodge made a lid for those!
I found another use for this skillet today. There was a recipe that called for a 1/2 egg. So what to do with the other half? Cook it in this skillet and give it to the dog as a treat. Similarly, what do you do when your package of steak includes a very tiny strip, too small for the grill? Cook it in this skillet for the dog.

 Very small Aug 26, 2009
By Craig Kruman
"Craig K."
A lot smaller than expected. 5" is for the top of it, but with the angled sides, the actual bottom is only 3.5".

Perfect for Pizookies! Jan 29, 2010
By CJ Mac
I specifically purchased these skillets for the purpose of making the half-baked cookie desserts, Pizookies (if you have never heard of that, you are missing out!
Seriously, Pizookies are absolutely the best dessert ever and these skillets cook them perfectly! I plan to purchase more so that I can entertain larger parties. The way I like to make these is to just make plain cookie dough, and then set out chips and nuts for people to build their own. Then I bake them at 475 degrees for about 6-8 minutes and then serve with a scoop of ice cream on top (also, you might want to serve the actual skillet on a plate with a pot holder over the handle for obvious reasons).
These skillets really are a perfect size for the dessert and I've used them about dozen times now with no signs of degrading whatsoever (although, I'm careful to follow the cleaning instructions).

Good Things Come in Small Packages May 04, 2009
By Sandra Carlson
"cotonmom"
This little frying pan is a perfect gem. I use it mainly to fry one egg for my breakfast, but I'm sure it would be good for a single hamburger or a small amount of onions or mushrooms. If you follow the directions for use and cleaning, the food comes out of the pan cleanly, making this the best non-stick surface you can find. This is really a quality product.
