    Uncle Scott's Kitchen reviews a De Buyer Mineral B Pro carbon steel skillet in-depth, with cooking tests, a complete rundown of the pan's features, real-world advice on how to season carbon steel pans, and the famous Fried Egg Test, all with some original music and humor. Is the De Buyer Mineral B Element Professional the best carbon steel pan for your money?

    ADDITIONAL PAN INFO:
    The video was getting pretty long, so there are a couple of other items that didn't make it into the final cut...
    Handle Heat: The handle does get hot when you cook. For me, it was only after 10 minutes or so of frying on the stovetop. Anything less than ten minutes and I didn't need a mitt, more than ten and I did.
    Metal: The label lists 99% iron.
    New Version: The De Buyer catalog lists this pan as "New for 2019" and also says it is "undistortable" which should help people who have had problems with other carbon steel pans warping.
    Sizes and Thickness: The 32 and 28 cm versions are 3 mm thick (very thick) and the 20 and 24 cm versions are 2.5 mm thick.

    Bought this exact pan, followed your instructions, and it's now totally non-stick. I seasoned and maintained with grapeseed oil, but cook primarily with butter, and I now use it every day. Love it. My partner is sick of hearing about how much I enjoy using it. Going to get another, smaller De Buyer soon. Thank you so much.

    Uncle Scott,
    after watching a ton of your videos you made this process seem possible for someone with zero experience at seasoning a pan. I just received and seasoned a new 11” De Buyer’s pan ( the standard, not the pro). I used the potato peal method you show in so many videos, like this one. It worked flawlessly and the egg test passed first try. Followed up with a ribeye that came out delicious and absolutely no sticking. Thanks for the helpful videos

    I noticed the rivets on my pan are farther down than the pan in this video. In particular, the center of the helper handle rivets are about 1 1/8" or 29mm down from the lip. The parts of the handle connecting to the pan seem more robust.

    I received my Mineral B 8 inch fry pan a week ago and seasoned according the instructions in the booklet that came with the pan and I've been afraid that I ruined it. It just didn't look right. I fried a burger and it passed a scrambled egg test but I still wasn't sure if I needed to start over. After watching this I realize I just need to start using it. Never heard of starting with a cold pan for bacon and sausage, thanks for the tip!

It seasoned very well over time....and does pretty darn great, in regard to being non-stick. I could easily do the fried egg test.

    Thanks Uncle Scott!!!
    I got the 8” DeBuyer Mineral Pro B for Christmas! Hot doggies!!!! What a great pan❤️ Thick body, great ergonomic handle, eggs slip and slide. Seasoned using the potato and salted oil method. My next pan will be the larger DeBuyer Mineral Pro B!🥰❤️🤠Wowie!
    I started my carbon steel adventures with the Made In 10”. Seasoned it and had my first joy of non stick eggs (after watching your video on egg cooking technique.) However I find the curved handle really hard to use one handed. Not ergonomic al all. The thinness of the body makes it finicky about using the perfect heat and butter ratio. I’ve only used it stovetop, electric burners, and don’t remember if it came with a little rise in the middle of the pan. It has a slight rise now and the oil, if not using more than I like, avoids the middle when hot. I’ve used it for only 2 months and it mostly performs really well but for the ergonomics and thinness.
    Thanks again for your great videos. I owe my egg success to you❤️
    DeBuyer Mineral Pro B is for me from now on😎

    Hi, once again one of the best videos on carbon steel cookware; however I would make one observation based on personal experience: I have 2 De Buyer pans and I have used them in the oven up to 220c without any visible damage to the handle coating.
    By the way, having looked at your cooked Okra it almost persuades me to eat the stuff which I have, hither too, found too slimy. Keep it up!

    • @per-ake
      @per-ake 3 роки тому

      I certainly can second that using the Mineral B's in tne oven, the only thing I've noticed is a slight discoloration on the coating on the handles probably due to being too near the grill/broiler element when finishing off a dish.

    I do love your reviews. I waited for this exact pan to become available in the states and snatched one up as soon as it became available. After living with it for about a year it is still not my "go to pan". My wife has named it "Big Bertha" because of it's heft. It is just as heavy or heavier than my 12" cast iron pans. I've found that it doesn't hold on to seasoning like my cast iron does. The stainless handles are great. They stay cool quite a bit longer than the handles on my cast iron. Recently I stripped and reseasoned it to give it another try.

      @@UncleScottsKitchen I was about to say something similar. It's a fantastic walkthrough and also the only thing I found for the Debuyer Mineral B. I got the 12" as a Xmas gift and I was disappointed initially to find out about handle coating (I have that one) but I do at least 80% of my cooking sous vide and really just needed a searing machine.
      I really appreciate this video. Not just the information, but something about your tone and direction really helped me calm down and reorient when I messed something up (used too much soap and it stained a little when cleaning the beeswax, and for some reason, I thought using my long 8" burner was a good idea and it looks like it burned/rusted the sides a little. It was great at first zero stickiness searing ribeyes, burgers and oxtail. Last night I cooked burgers and they were super sticky and immediately blamed myself and figured I ruined it-but then I remembered how nonchalantly you'd say things like "that's okay, give it some hot water scrape out the bits, dry it and go again" so I added a bit of canola oil tonight, let it smoke, rubbed it to a shine (didn't burn my finger but came close) and now I'm going to sear some lambchops and see how it goes! 🙏

      This great video convinced me to pay the 2 x price for the pan (shipped from UK) . I have watched all of Scott's videos, but one; the grain grinder recently offered. It sounds "exotic" but I'll wager Scott was interested in getting the cornmeal of the grain size Mom used on the okra! Since I am addicted to cornmeal and live in the "Tall Corn State," I will watch it.

    I've been in the market for a carbon steel frying pan for a while. While surfing the internet I came across your website. I started to watch your videos and learn more in a short video then what other selling them know. Long story short, I purchased a DeBuyer 11" Pro. I seasoned it my from a video that was sent to me from DeBuyer. It works and I have a well seasoned pan. Yes, I seasoned only once and started to cook with it. Thanks for your video you post. You make cooking with a carbon steel possible and enjoyable. Thoughts on the 11", heavy and the top edge of the pan felt sharp. A person wouldn't cut themselves but almost. Thanks again, keep posting videos please.

    What do you think about just torching off or grinding the epoxy coating on the cheaper De Buyer so you can put it in the oven. Then just season the handle like the rest of the pan in the oven so it doesn't rust? Seems like an easy way to save 50-60 bucks to have a more functional pan.

    That was the most thorough documentation of the development of seasoning on a pan that I've seen yet. I've always put my pans through the oven after cooking because it tends to scare me when the cooking surface leaves what looks like a bare metal bald spot like that after cleaning. Made me think it'd rust in those areas, or that the seasoning would develop to be uneven if the color isn't more or less uniform edge-to-edge. Seeing the seasoning develop step by step like really helps me understand what the process of seasoning through cooking naturally looks like. Thanks for the hard work!

    Wonderful review. de Buyer is pronounced de Booyeh in French and means from the buyer. Typical evian French humour.
    My dear grandmother taught me how to cook. Her favourite dish was, "This is what we are eating today."
    Her wood stove, pots and pans possibly pre-dated the Revolution.
    I am sure she would have enjoyed the products you demonstrate.
    Grandmere disliked Michelin Chefs.

      Nothing better than grandmothers and their pans and cooking advice! I think back to my grandmother and her cast iron skillets for fried okra and corn bread. I am sorry for my pronunciation of "De Buyer"... I don't speak French (but I love French cookware!). I hope you still have some of your grandmother's pots and pans to cook with. Thank you for writing in!

      Bacon is one of the worst offenders for sticking and leaving stuck bits in the pan. I actually did a whole video on cooking bacon in carbon steel: ua-cam.com/video/fQvIy3y4zhg/v-deo.html . Thanks for the compliments on the range... we definitely went over budget on it, but I use it every day so I feel like I am getting my money's worth over time.

    Fact: more people understand the metric system than imperial system. Only the United States, Liberia and Myanmar officially use the imperial measuring system. That's 400M people. Just over 5% of the world's population. And since scientific standards use metric systems a lot of those 5% understand the metric system too.

    Scott ... Thank You! Lynne and i have been cooking with cast iron on the stove top almost exclusively and i wanted something lighter ... especially for going from top to oven. So i started scouring the internet for information and reviews and luckily came upon your videos. Et Voila as they say up the road in Quebec ... you reviewed pans and taught how to clean, season and cook with them. There are lots of other videos and many of them are good ... but for honest information presented without attitude and BS ... yours do it for me. The 12.5" de Buyer Pro got here yesterday and following your directions it seems the seasoning is coming along perfectly. (But the potato chips are awfully salty. Maybe if i switch from water to beer it'd help.)

    I'm an induction fan since 20 years (true!) so I needed to tweak. De Buyer Mineral B. Rapeseed oil until smoking and some. In to hot oven after wiping off all oil. 30 min later letting it cool some. Then you oil/potato/salt for 15 min. It's GOLDEN and looks amazing! It's midnight and tomorrow I'm leaving for 4 weeks of solid work. Can't wait to come back to try out the pan!

    You are making great videos and you may have save me some money today. I have an electric stove and today ordered my 1st carbon steel skillet. I ordered a 12" Matfer, then I happened to come across your video about how carbon steel skillets can warp on electric stoves and you recommended a De Buyer Pro. Luckily I had just placed the order for the Matfer and I was able to cancel the order before it shipped and ordered a De Buyer Pro. It should be here in a couple of days - can't wait. I used to be a tool-guy and I always bought the best quality tools that I could buy. My wife thought that I spent a lot on tools and I was a little extravegant with my tool buying. You can imagine her excitement now that I'm getting into cooking : ) . Also, I really liked your comment about how you equate weight with quality and your wife has been increasing her quality through the years. I'm going to try that one out on my wife : ) wish me luck with that. Please keep up the good work!

    Hi there, really enjoyed your media clip. Just bought an expensive cooker so needed to buy some pans etc. De Buyer looks a good option for what I need so I have just purchased a bunch. Your review is really helpful for a guy like me. Making lots of bread Irish soda bread/farls. When I get my new pans I’ll be more or less cooking the same as yourself. Enjoyed everything about your footage, especially the family touch with your little boy at the end. I too have children - 3 in total.
    Take care and stay safe. Kindest regards, Ian Hollywood (Liverpool, England).
