    Some really great points in there Tom. Yes non stick can have its place (personally I don't use them) but wide spread use of them can make a cook lazy. That's not to say everyone who uses them is a lazy cook.

    Thanks Tom. In my experience, cast iron is the best option to take cooking to next level and is virtually foolproof, as long as you don’t try to braise with acidic foods. SS is difficult due to sticking. Carbon Steel in theory is great, but frankly I have almost given up on getting it properly seasoned - after over a year, i can only seem to cook potatoes and the like. Anytime i try to cook any meat, it strips the seasoning somewhat and I have to re-season. I never have to do anything with cast iron, it just works - but i don’t wash it, i clean with salt and oil.

    If your first Frying pan isn't a Lodge you've already lost at life.

    I have an assortment of cast iron, carbon steel, and stainless now. They all get used depending on the dish. Thanks to Tom, I finally bought a stainless frying pan after watching all his pro tips.

    Nice images! I'm not a newbie (I am especially enjoying my carbon steel fry pans at the moment), but I guess I have a pan obsession at the moment.

    Hi Tom. We've chatted before on your channel. I tried carbon steel but I got burned(pardon the pun) with the seasoning and cleanup issues. I probably screwed up but I just did not want the high maintenance issues. I have settled with good quality non stick pans which work well with eggs etc and I am careful with tools and cleaning. I have stainless steel also which works well. I also have carbon enamel iron pans which I inherited from my mother so those pans are about 60 yo. For new cooks,I feel that a combo of non-stick,stainless steel or carbon enamel iron pads. I am just wondering if a new cook can deal with the seasoning and care issues of cast iron/carbon.

    Can't go wrong with a thick carbon steel or a cast iron pan if you have an induction stove. And if you can't have a gas stove, you really should have induction. It's the only two choices, as far as I am concerned. Everything else should be retired.
