14 best lodge towel sets

Product description

Designed for the gourmet, the Lodge Chef Skillet is great for omelets, cornbread or sauteing. This unique 10-inch skillet has sloped sides and features a teardrop handle. Cast iron loves a campfire, a stovetop, or an oven, and can slow-cook foods without scorching. It retains heat well so you can sear meat at higher temperatures and will keep your delicious meals warm for a long time. Made of cast iron, this skillet evenly distributes heat from the bottom through the sidewalls. Sporting a stylish black color, the cast iron skillet looks good in most kitchens and it doubles up as an excellent source of nutritional iron. Measures: 10-inch diameter, 1.75-inch deep. Cast Iron, like your grandmother used, still ranks as one of the best cooking utensils ever made. It gives you a nearly non-stick surface, without the possible harmful fumes generated by preheating chemically treated nonstick cookware. The American-based company, Lodge, has been fine-tuning its construction of rugged, cast-iron cookware for more than a century. The black patina given to the cookware by the factory seasoning process is, in fact, vegetable oil that has been baked into a piece of cookware that has emerged from an individual sand mold. This coating of oil is a functional application and not a cosmetic application.  The cookware is hanging as it rides through the electrostatic sprayer and commercial conveyer ovens at very high temperatures.  This allows the oil to penetrate deeply into the pores of the iron which creates an easy release finish. As a result of this process, you may see a blister or bubble of oil at the southern-most point or at the end of the handle of the cookware piece. If visible, it will rub or flake off with your finger, leaving a brown spot.  Don’t worry, it’s not rust but a seasoned spot that is brown, indicative of the varnish stage of seasoning.  As a matter of fact, this is the color of home seasoned iron until it has been used several times. The brown spot will turn black with use. While the skillet comes pre-seasoned to prevent food from sticking, it works best when sprayed or lightly coated with vegetable oil before use. After cooking, we recommend cleaning with a stiff nylon brush and hot water. Using soap or the dishwasher is not recommended, and harsh detergents should never be used. Towel dry immediately cleaning and apply a light coating of oil to utensil while it is still warm.

Product Highlights

The right tool for searing, sauteing, simmering, braising, baking, roasting, and frying.

Made of Cast-Iron

Cast-Iron is a form of cookware developed over a millennia ago remains as popular today as when it was used to prepare meals hundreds of years ago. Cast Iron is one of only two metals compatible with induction stovetops. Unparalleled in heat retention and even heating.

Can Be Used With A Variety of Heat Sources

At home in the oven, on the stove, on the grill or over the campfire. Skillet may be used on various heat sources including gas, electric, induction and ceramic-glass top stoves and ovens. When using on glass stove tops, be careful not to slide the cookware around as it's possible to scratch the surface. Seasoned cast iron can also be used on the grill or outdoor fire and coals for camp cooking. Begin heating cookware on low and slowly bring heat up to medium or medium/high. Always remove cookware from the stovetop after cooking.

Eco-Responsibility

Lodge is a zero hazardous waste stream foundry. Lodge designed a vegetable oil recycler for the seasoning process to reduce waste and unusable oil is recycled and used as biodiesel generator. Lodge uses recycled and biodegradable packing materials. Reuse of foundry sand used in the casting process is recycled and unusable sand, works to purify the water of the local streams and planting trees to improve air quality and beautification.

The Clean Water and Air Acts of 1970 led American companies to install new equipment to meet the pollution control laws. Not only did the updates meet the requirements of the Clean Air and Water legislation, by 1976 our automated processes produced as many molds in an hour as one man’s daily productivity 30 years earlier.

With the switch from antiquated electric furnaces to more efficient induction furnaces, 1991 proved to be a pivotal juncture in the green standards of Lodge Manufacturing Company. The use of magnetic energy to produce heat changed our status from a Large Quantity Generator of Hazardous Waste to a Small Quantity Generator, and we received the 1994 Tennessee Governor’s Award for Excellence in Hazardous Waste Reduction.

100 years & still cooking. ..

Lodge is the oldest family-owned cookware foundry in America. Since 1896, the Lodge family has been casting premium iron cookware at our Tennessee foundry. Starting with raw materials and finishing with our seasoning process, we continue to improve on the highest quality standards that go into every piece we make. As the sole American manufacturer of cast iron cookware, we are proud to carry on the legacy started by founder Joseph Lodge. Lodge doesn't just make cast iron; we make heirlooms that bring people together for generations.

Two historic events—the introduction of foundry seasoned cast iron cookware and the recent expansion of our foundry—represent dynamic examples of Lodge Manufacturing Company’s century-plus commitment to product innovation and investment in new equipment and technologies.

Seasoned cast iron propelled Lodge from the position of a regional manufacturer to the national stage, with Good Housekeeping presenting a 'Good Buy' Award for the product enhancement. Our appearance on the national stage expanded throughout the first decade of the new century, with record sales leading Lodge to the largest expansion in our history.

While we are proud of our recent history, there is a backstory. So travel with us to the small town of South Pittsburg, Tennessee at the end of the 19th Century. Nestled at the base of the Appalachian Mountain’s Cumberland Plateau and on the banks of the Tennessee River, the town was abuzz with new opportunities.

In 1896 Joseph Lodge began a cast iron foundry, named in honor of his minister, Rev. Joseph Hayden Blacklock. Family owned, our origins were humble and our products varied, from stoves, to skillets and kitchen sinks.

As each decade passed, Lodge developed a business model to continually update and improve equipment and foundry practices. Work was labor intensive, with all of our cookware poured and cleaned by hand.

The 1950s saw the installation new molding machinery, mechanized sand delivery systems, the construction of a gas fired aluminum furnace to cast patterns for the production of sand mold impressions and a machine to clean castings.

When the introduction of new cookware metals and coatings increased competition in the 1960s, Lodge countered with a Disamatic automatic molding machine. Two years later, Lodge added an electric furnace to operate the Disamatic molding and pouring system, outpacing the capacity of the coke-fired cupola, at lower cost.

After in the introduction of seasoned cast iron cookware, Lodge broke ground for our foundry expansion. With completion of the first phase in the fall of 2014, the expansion includes a new melt system, an additional pouring/molding line and most importantly—new American jobs!

In more ways than he could have ever imagined, Joseph Lodge would not recognize the business he started over a century ago. Lodge continues to be family owned and we are the sole manufacturer of cast iron cookware in US, producing over 120 different foundry seasoned cast iron items for worldwide gourmet, outdoor and restaurant markets.

More importantly, Lodge Manufacturing Company is universally accepted as the world leader in the cast iron cookware category.

User questions & answers

Question:	Can you use this on a glass top electric stove
Answer:	Yes you can.
Question:	I just received this griddle; it doesn't seem that the bottom will actually touch my induction cooktop.Will it work if it doesnt touch the surface
Answer:	Works great on our induction cooktop on either side. Heats very rapidly if you want, but of course the way to heat cast iron is slowly so it comes to the temp you want to cook at. Cast iron is of course way better than the clad cookware that can get loud from vibrations as the different layers absorb the magnetic energy at different rates. This also doubles as a great defrosting plate from stuff from the freezer. Your great-great grandchildren will be glad you bought this as they're using it.
Question:	Will this work on glass top
Answer:	According to www.lodgemfg.com, it will work on your glass cooktop. It does say however to not slide the cast iron on the glass top. This link should give you more answers. http://www.lodgemfg.com/useandcare/seasoned-cast-iron
Question:	How well does this griddle work on electric stoves
Answer:	Be careful, cast iron can scratch your glass top stove but it will work on it!

User questions & answers

Question:	Is there a loop for hanging
Answer:	Yes, they have a nice size loop for hanging.
Question:	can you hang these, and where is the loop located
Answer:	No loops. You can't hang them. Only store flat.
Question:	How could anyone leave these on a pan over an open flame and expect them not to burn? they're fabric pot holders. come on, people
Answer:	The handle doesn't sit over an open flame, the flame is under the bottom of the pan. If you have flames just blasting up the side of the pan, you need to turn down the burner.It is not necessary to have the flame up so high. In fact, it's ridiculous. And if you are really worried about that, the holders do slip right off. You can easily slip them right back on when needed. I use these, am speaking from experience and have not had the type of issue you imagine. Keep the flame at a sane level and everything will be fine.KEEP CALM AND USE COMMON SENSE!!
Question:	Are these stiff? Will they adhere to the handle of the pan easily? No cast iron pan, just for asimple fry pan
Answer:	The are somewhat stiff. I use mine on a cheap lightweight frying pan that has a metal (hot!) handle. It slips onto the handle easily

User questions & answers

Question:	How high is the lip on the pan? Could I use it to fry something in a half inch of oil
Answer:	Lip is about one half inch and rounded. I would never use this pan with more than a coating of oil. Using more could cause a spill and fire.
Question:	I like to make small personal pizzas, will this work instead of the 14" pizza pan which is too big
Answer:	It is excellent for this purpose, but you should also consider the Lodge pizza griddle. I preheat to 500, insert my pizza on a pizza screen and then slide off onto the cast iron after 4-5 minutes. I lightly oil the screen but not the pan. The 14" griddle is a terrific pan for many purposes, and it retains higher heat even if you're only using a small part of the surface. Some people use it as a "pizza stone." I use both these pans very frequently.
Question:	Does this pan work on an induction stove
Answer:	It works.... but you've got to really watch it ... The cast Iron ware I use (1 vintage wagner bought at a yard sale, and 2 new lodge products) gets too hot and in turn heats the induction plate so high it turns off... I have a salton portable cook top from costco (similar to ASIN:B00FAD57SC Salton Induction Cooker Energy efficiency 300W-1800W, 140F-465F)
Question:	How about its performance on an electric stove for making indian rotis/chapattis/breads
Answer:	The Lodge skillet is EXCELLENT tool in making a variety of foods including rotis/chapatis/breads, grilling etc. Have been using it for the last 20 yrs. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

User questions & answers

Question:	induction usage possible
Answer:	Yes the rule if a magnet will stick to the bottom it is induction ready I have only used mine on my induction cooktop.
Question:	Anyone with experience cooking salmon? Suggestions? Recipies? (I don't like highly-seasoned foods
Answer:	1. season your salmon with some oil seasoning paste (oil + seasoning+ salt+ other spices of your choice). Let rest for 10-15 mins for the oil seasoning paste to be absorbed into the fish. If you don't like highly-seasoned foods, then make sure you buy good quality salmon, and you can just season it with some salt and a thin layer of oil, then adding some fresh lemon juice before serving. If you want to skip the oil too, then you need the part of the salmon that has more fat)2. Heat the pan until very very very hot, you don't need to put oil into the pan.3. Use medium high heat. Put the fish with the side you want to present on the plate DOWN. Seal for 2-4 mins depending on the thickness of your salmon.4. Flip the fish when you see the meat is almost half way cooked (you will notice the cooked part has a slightly different color)5. Turn OFF the heat or turn the heat down to low, because the heat from the pan will cook the meat for you and this process will prevent from over-cooking your fish.6. Cook for about 2 to 3 mins or until you see the color of the fish meat is slightly pinkish and when you press the fish with your finger the meat will not bounce back.7. Serve with some freshly cut lemon wedges, the squeeze the lemon juice on the fish before eating.
Question:	The best way to clean a cast iron grill pan
Answer:	Cast iron cookware is my favorite! I usually just rinse with hot water and use a mild scrubber on mine. After some time, however, my cast iron gets buildup on the sides - I put the pans in the self-cleaning oven and they come out like new. They do have to be re-seasoned but that doesn't take much effort. I'm sure it would work fine on this ridged pan that is sure to be more difficult to clean.
Question:	how does this compare with the much more expensive enamel coated version? and why
Answer:	Much better. I have this Lodge and the LC enamel version. Trust me on this - never buy this style pan with enamel coating. Grill type pans are more difficult to clean because of the ridges, nooks & crannies. Because cast iron seasons better and becomes more non-stick than enamel, it is MUCH easier to clean with use. My LC is in the garage awaiting disposal. I love LC, but their grill pans should be avoided.

User questions & answers

Question:	Can it be refilled
Answer:	It is one of many oils that can be used for seasoning carbon steel pans so the answer is yes. You will get arguments as to which is better just like is Ford better than Chevrolet. Season the carbon steel pans the same steps as Cast Iron. If the pan has been used, make certain it is absolutely clean before seasoning.
Question:	It makes my pan blotchy? Why
Answer:	You can, in fact, I use it to oil my nonstick pans before cooking in them. They're getting a little long in the tooth and I recently saw that you should oil nonstick pans as well as cast iron pans.
Question:	Would you recommend this for seasoning carbon steel pans as well
Answer:	Nope. It's literally just coarse salt
Question:	Is this strictly for seasoning or can you also you it for cooking, in place of nonstick spray, since it is Canola oil
Answer:	No I havent experienced that, but I had really cleaned mine and baked it in the oven before i started to use this oil.

Question:	Will this fit Lodge's 6.5" cast iron skillet
Answer:	I haven't washed mine yet either....but I have two other small pillows this size that I have washed with great success. It's cheap, I'd give it a shot.

Question:	Do you put these on before putting the skillet in the oven or only when removing
Answer:	I used the white one as a shower curtain for two years. The surface was tile. I experienced no rusting at all, when I took it down to move it looked good as new. It is very important to clean both the pad and the wall well with water and let it air dry before mounting, then follow the mounting instructions carefully.

Question:	why does it have a limit of 500 degree F and the no pro-logic dos not list a temp. limit
Answer:	They work great, set right inside and the lip of the liner sits on top of pot, lid seals against the liner. Tabs create handles to lift liner and contents right out for serving.
Question:	how wide and deep is the inside of the Lodge Pro Logic 4-Quart Cast Iron Dutch Oven, Black
Answer:	No, baking requires a heat source, like a Dutch oven with charcoal briquettes on it.
Question:	What is the difference between regular Lodge cast iron, and the "Pro Logic" Lodge cast iron? The descriptions seem about the same
Answer:	It fits my 12 inch Dutch. It may not be wide enough for a loaf pan. It depends on the size of the loaf pan.
Question:	Is the lid handle also metal? I need a handle that won't melt at 500 degrees
Answer:	Not really sure. I wrapped my fingers around it when using it. Also, note that the metal above the bar is twisted. That twist ends on the bar, so it may be just part of the design.

User questions & answers

Question:	I want a cast iron skillet manufactured in the U.S. What is the country of origin of Lodge brand skillets
Answer:	Lodge pots and pans with model #'s stamped on the bottom containing the # 5 = 8 inches. Model #'s containing the # 6 = 9 inches.
Question:	How do you know if an 8 or 9 inch top is correct size
Answer:	The "ridge" that is on the bottom of the lid is from outside to outside 11 5/8 . The ridge is 1/8 in. The diam of the lid is 12 1/8. The "ridge' is approx. 3/16 in from the edge of the lid
Question:	I dont have a lodge pan ..instead a vintage cast iron pan ... its stamped on the bottom #10 12 7/16 inches... what is the exact size of the lid
Answer:	When warranted, I'm as critical of Amazon as the next gal, but I don't share the Amazon-enmity folks have posted in response to the original poster's criticism of the price of these lids compared to the Lodge skillets they cover.* || Why not? Because: (1) As of 1/3/20, Lodge -- the manufacturer -- is selling these lids on its own website for $31.99, and that's before taxes and shipping. The Amazon price is quite reasonable in comparison, especially for folks whose annual Amazon Prime membership has covered their shipping costs. (2) The Academy page to which some folks in this thread have linked does, indeed, offer these lids for $19.99 -- but that price is exclusive of both taxes and shipping. When, as an experiment, I added the lid to an Academy shopping cart and let it calculate shipping and taxes for me, the cost of the lid was $25.75 -- equivalent to what a Prime member would pay here at Amazon thanks to the Prime shipping waiver and the tax relief provided by the handy coupon Amazon is offering customers for this item on 1/3/20. || In other words, if the price of this lid is vexing, then Lodge -- whose $31.99 MSRP has set the tone here -- is a more appropriate target for folks' pique than Amazon. || However, in Lodge's defense, I offer my own observation that setting specialty lid prices at or near the cost of the pans they cover isn't a practice limited to Lodge: e.g. I have a Cuisinart stainless steel pan that retails without a lid; the lid that fit it was a specialty item that I had to purchase separately, at a cost dang near equal to that of the pan itself. Contributing factors, I'm told, are intricacies in a lid's design (e.g. the Lodge lid's self-basting spikes) and a lack of skimpiness in its materials (e.g. the Lodge lid's thick cast iron). *(As an aside, the non-sale price of the Lodge 12" skillet was seldom $19 even in 2013, when the original post was made, but generally hovered around $25 even at big box stores. I know because I bought my first Lodge 12" at one of those big box stores -- the one with the bullseye -- for $25 in 2013. As of 1/3/20, the Lodge 12" skillet costs $38 here at Amazon.)
Question:	dollar cover for a 19 dollar pan? do they think we are stupid or something
Answer:	Hi Eric, Thank you for your interest in Cuisinel cast iron. The deal of the day skillet set does not come with lids. Regards, Rose

User questions & answers

Question:	Has anyone used these on nonstick pans and are they safe to use on them
Answer:	These are made of plastic, much like a spatula you would use on Teflon pans. I think they would be fine to use on your nonstick pans.
Question:	i just received these. how exactly do you use these? lodge logo up
Answer:	I have used the scraper when brown meat in the iron pot and then scrap to get the scraps up. But, I am also now using it when I cook my oatmeal in a stove pot.Eveything just comes away from the sides of the pot. I put the rounded edge toward the curve of the pan or pot. Hope this help.
Question:	What is better--these scrapers or the chain mail cast iron scrubbers
Answer:	Depends on your pan. I use these on my enamel coated cast iron, the metal will ruin the finish. If you have roughed up cast iron, I would use metal/chain mail then season well.
Question:	Are these heat resistant? Can I use them while the cast iron is still hot
Answer:	They are not heat resistant and cannot be used while the pan is hot. Warm, sure, but not while hot. I melted one of mine slightly due to the pan being too hot while scraping.

100 years and still cooking:

Two historic events—the introduction of foundry seasoned cast iron cookware and the recent expansion of our foundry—represent dynamic examples of Lodge Manufacturing Company’s century-plus commitment to product innovation and investment in new equipment and technologies.

Seasoned cast iron propelled Lodge from the position of a regional manufacturer to the national stage, with Good Housekeeping presenting a “Good Buy” Award for the product enhancement. Our appearance on the national stage expanded throughout the first decade of the new century, with record sales leading Lodge to the largest expansion in our history.

While we are proud of our recent history, there is a backstory. So travel with us to the small town of South Pittsburg, Tennessee at the end of the 19th Century. Nestled at the base of the Appalachian Mountain’s Cumberland Plateau and on the banks of the Tennessee River, the town was abuzz with new opportunities.

In 1896 Joseph Lodge began a cast iron foundry, named in honor of his minister, Rev. Joseph Hayden Blacklock. Family owned, our origins were humble and our products varied, from stoves, to skillets and kitchen sinks.

As each decade passed, Lodge developed a business model to continually update and improve equipment and foundry practices. Work was labor intensive, with all of our cookware poured and cleaned by hand.

The 1950s saw the installation new molding machinery, mechanized sand delivery systems, the construction of a gas fired aluminum furnace to cast patterns for the production of sand mold impressions and a machine to clean castings.

When the introduction of new cookware metals and coatings increased competition in the 1960s, Lodge countered with a Disamatic automatic molding machine. Two years later, Lodge added an electric furnace to operate the Disamatic molding and pouring system, outpacing the capacity of the coke-fired cupola, at lower cost.

The Clean Water and Air Acts of 1970 led American companies to install new equipment to meet the pollution control laws. Lodge accepted the standards by replacing the old electric furnaces and adding a second Disamatic molding machine.

Not only did the updates meet the requirements of the Clean Air and Water legislation, by 1976 our automated processes produced as many molds in an hour as one man’s daily productivity 30 years earlier.

With the switch from antiquated electric furnaces to environmentally sound induction furnaces, 1991 proved to be a pivotal juncture in the standards of Lodge Manufacturing Company. The use of magnetic energy to produce heat changed our status from a Large Quantity Generator of Hazardous Waste to a Small Quantity Generator, and we received the 1994 Tennessee Governor’s Award for Excellence in Hazardous Waste Reduction.

Today, Lodge Manufacturing Company maintains a zero hazardous waste stream foundry, earning accolades from the environmental and manufacturing communities.

Eleven years after in the introduction of seasoned cast iron cookware, Lodge broke ground for our foundry expansion. With completion of the first phase in the fall of 2014, the expansion includes a new melt system, an additional pouring/molding line and most importantly—new American jobs!

In more ways than he could have ever imagined, Joseph Lodge would not recognize the business he started over a century ago. Lodge continues to be family owned and we are the sole manufacturer of cast iron cookware in US, producing over 120 different foundry seasoned cast iron items for worldwide gourmet, outdoor and restaurant markets.

More importantly, Lodge Manufacturing Company is universally accepted as the world leader in the cast iron cookware category.

Product description

The Lodge Cast Iron 10.5-inch Square Grill pan and Red Silicone Hot Handle Holder is a multi-functional cookware that works wonders with slow-cooking recipes and all your favorite foods. This pre-seasoned grill pan works like a charm right out of the box. Cast iron creates superior heat retention, heats evenly, and loves a campfire, unlike flimsier pans. Saute, sear, fry, bake and stir fry to heart's content in this generous 10.5-inch pan that features two handles for heavy lifting. While the pan comes pre-seasoned to prevent food from sticking, it works best when sprayed or lightly coated with vegetable oil before use. The Lodge seasoning procedure is a multiple-step process in which the seasoning oil is applied via an electrostatic spray system that coats the cookware, then it's baked in commercial ovens at very high temperatures. This allows the oil to penetrate deeply into the pores of the iron. This seasoning process achieves a seasoned finish that would take many months of home use to achieve.

• Pre-seasoned and ready-to-use
• Superior heat retention and even cooking
• Two assist handles for heavy lifting
• Use on all cooking surfaces, grills and campfires
• Combo pack: 10.5-inch square grill pan and red silicone hot handle holder

User questions & answers

Question:	induction usage possible
Answer:	Yes the rule if a magnet will stick to the bottom it is induction ready I have only used mine on my induction cooktop.
Question:	Anyone with experience cooking salmon? Suggestions? Recipies? (I don't like highly-seasoned foods
Answer:	1. season your salmon with some oil seasoning paste (oil + seasoning+ salt+ other spices of your choice). Let rest for 10-15 mins for the oil seasoning paste to be absorbed into the fish. If you don't like highly-seasoned foods, then make sure you buy good quality salmon, and you can just season it with some salt and a thin layer of oil, then adding some fresh lemon juice before serving. If you want to skip the oil too, then you need the part of the salmon that has more fat)2. Heat the pan until very very very hot, you don't need to put oil into the pan.3. Use medium high heat. Put the fish with the side you want to present on the plate DOWN. Seal for 2-4 mins depending on the thickness of your salmon.4. Flip the fish when you see the meat is almost half way cooked (you will notice the cooked part has a slightly different color)5. Turn OFF the heat or turn the heat down to low, because the heat from the pan will cook the meat for you and this process will prevent from over-cooking your fish.6. Cook for about 2 to 3 mins or until you see the color of the fish meat is slightly pinkish and when you press the fish with your finger the meat will not bounce back.7. Serve with some freshly cut lemon wedges, the squeeze the lemon juice on the fish before eating.
Question:	The best way to clean a cast iron grill pan
Answer:	Cast iron cookware is my favorite! I usually just rinse with hot water and use a mild scrubber on mine. After some time, however, my cast iron gets buildup on the sides - I put the pans in the self-cleaning oven and they come out like new. They do have to be re-seasoned but that doesn't take much effort. I'm sure it would work fine on this ridged pan that is sure to be more difficult to clean.
Question:	how does this compare with the much more expensive enamel coated version? and why
Answer:	Much better. I have this Lodge and the LC enamel version. Trust me on this - never buy this style pan with enamel coating. Grill type pans are more difficult to clean because of the ridges, nooks & crannies. Because cast iron seasons better and becomes more non-stick than enamel, it is MUCH easier to clean with use. My LC is in the garage awaiting disposal. I love LC, but their grill pans should be avoided.

Question:	Are these better or worse compared to the lodge silicon handle holder
Answer:	Dear T. Erickson:I've used the "LODGE"-brand Striped HOT/Heat-Resistant Cast Iron cookware Handle Covers for well-OVER a decade now, and these work Very, VERY WELL, overall!! We just purchased one of "Lodge's" Silicon Hot/Heat-Resistant Handle Covers in LATE Summer of 2015 for 1st time....It works "OK", BUT: For the money, buy a PAIR (Or however many You want, naturally!) of the Striped Heat Resistant i.e.: fabric-version Handle Covers pictured, and SAVE Your money on the Silicon-version! The Silicon-version is MORE "Gimmick" than "Good" product quite frankly (!!), and depending on what type of cast iron utensil I'm using>>ESPECIALLY griddles & shallow skillets that lay CLOSE to HOT burners & TOPs of stoves (!!)>>I've come close to really BURNING my darn hand pretty seriously a few times using the Silicon-version over past 3-to-4 months since We've had darn thing....I've almost NEVER done this w/ the "fabric"-versions pictured to left, using these for a decade++ (Unless I was NOT "paying attention", Or doing something "Stupid"!!). Bottomline: I wouldn't waste the money buying another Silicon "heat-resistant" handle cover for cast iron cookware!! HOPE this helps in Your decision-making process.BEST of Luck & Regards,Robert L. Ruttinger
