    Lid next time to get the fire out. Pan was simply too hot. Stainless is okay for slowly cooking things like fried eggs, but I've never had luck with scrambled cooking faster
    Get some barkeeper's friend to get that pan ready again

    WAAY too hot. pan shouldn't go above 400 degrees. You want a medium to medium low. On an electric stove like a 5 or 6 on the dial. If the oil catches fire you're probably up over 5-600 degrees.

    Yeah bro Cuisinart stainless is trash for eggs pancakes anything liquid. Stainless steel pans have pores in them and when heated these pores open and close during the heating process. If your pan is not heated properly LOW Heat, and you put eggs or anything liquid the results are the same in the pan the opening and closing pores will latch onto your food, causing it to stick when you go to flip it. I was a line chef for more than a decade and found some cheaper non sticks are way better. Keep up the vids your a real good cook I enjoy each one brings back memories.

    Operator error. If you're going to use oil in a stainlees steel pan, it needs to heat WITH the pan. Stainless steel pans can handle higher heat temperatures, so they're good for searing steaks or fish, browning onions or garlic, cooking acidic foods like tomato sauce, or high heat stir frying. Non-stick is better for eggs and omelets, delicate fish filets, pancakes, or crepes, and sauteeing vegetables with minimal oil.😉

    You likely have an expensive all clad skillet. If that is the case, or not, the heat is extremely way too hot. You can destroy all clad skillets by using that hot of a heat. Also, like cast iron, stainless skillets need to be seasoned. Make the first couple things you cook in it be sausage of something greasy. The oil you ladle into pan, seems to have spam type qualities to put that non removable coat on it. Regardless, your burner is way too high and you need to slowly season your new stainless pan :-)

    I'm sure others have stated this, but your pan was too hot. Although I'm unfamiliar with the Cuisinart brand, but if they're anything like the Legend stainless steel pans I have, they can't be so hot that your oil starts smoking. Your oil should never smoke, and if it ignores, you're probably at least 2-300 degrees hotter than you should be. Hope you try cooking with them again at a lower temp in the future! Good luck.

I am no professional chef by any means, but i cook my pancakes on medium-low heat and use cooking spray to coat the pan. Online, they act like medium heat is the absolute highest you should go. When testing with water, you just want it to sizzle. I think the pan may have been too hot. Stainless steel pans are a pain in the ass at times (AGAIN, im no professional cook). Hopefully it works out for you eventually if you decide to use the pan in the future. Love the content, best wishes my friend!

      steinless steel ist superior to cook meat and make a sauce from the residue. just add some onion, garlic add flour, deglace with wine or juice, add stock or broth, salt pepper, done. The great benefit of stainless steel pans ist that stuff stick to them so you can make great sauces. If you really want to anger yourself, try making egg or cook fish in it ;)

    Pan was way to hot. So the oil got hit to fast and caught fire. Then the eggs stuck to the oil film on the pan from the oil fire when you put more eggs in and so therefore the eggs stuck to the oil film. Always soak the pan with degreaser as dish soap and hot work scrub with stainless still pan the again in hot water and dish soap dry immediately.

    Stainless conducts heat quicker than other metals. Also for that same reason they’re not too good in the “non stick” department. Aluminum is better for eggs, but just barely. I buy teflon or ceramic for eggs. Stainless and carbon steel are great for searing. I never put ANYTHING in my egg pans but oil, egg and a clean towel. With aluminum NEVER use soap and water. Just warm the pan, pour in some salt and a little oil and lightly rub with a clean towel. Ask Waffle House cooks: they only use aluminum. Water…and it’ll stick

    Stainless steel pans are great for cooking chicken breasts, but NOT for scrambled eggs.
    Gotta use the right tool for the job!

    I do have a question. The blue handle skillets you use for eggs...are they a non-stick surface? My dad used to used skillets like that and I believe they were aluminum. I don't think they were stainless steel and non-stick was not a thing back in those days. I think the stainless steel pan was just too hot and it got scorched. Probably need to clean it with an s.o.s. pad and Barkeepers Friend.

    The pan with the blue handles. Been using it for Culinary School and it works better for any other pan.

      Stainless steel pans are good for like searing a steak not for eggs. Need a nonstick pan
