Perfect size cast iron for filets!
Marcellin has put together a line of cast iron cookware that really stacks up against the competition. Each piece is designed with an octagonal shape that makes nesting them into one another an easy task—without the wobbly, unsteady fit you find in circular cookware.
This skillet is ideal for frying, searing, or building up a sauce. The pre-seasoned, polished cooking surface develops a rich patina with time and keeps bits of food from sticking. When designing the skillet, Marcellin chose the optimal thickness for a balance of excellent heat retention and even distribution, making sure it's still durable enough for high-heat searing. The result is that it's compatible with all heat sources (even ovens, grills, and open flames) and built to last a lifetime.
Be sure to check out the rest of Marcellin's Ironstack products to build your own modular, stackable set to handle all your cooking needs—no need to worry about what fits with what.

This is a great pan. It's perfect for camping, side dishes, or for entrees for a one or two person household. I use mine all the time.

I tried cooking a steak in mine. Got nice and hot, creating a great crust on my ribeye!
Yes — pre-seasoned with soy-based vegetable oil (note allergy warning for those with soy allergies). Marcellin recommends washing with warm water and towel drying before first use, then applying a home seasoning. Reviewers note it cooks well immediately and improves significantly with use and additional seasoning.
The octagonal shape is the signature of Marcellin's Ironstack line — designed so pieces stack securely without the wobble you get with circular cookware. For cooking, performance is identical to round cast iron. It's also compatible with the IronStack universal lid and other pieces in the Ironstack range.
At 6.2 lbs with an 18.25" handle-to-handle length, it's a substantial skillet. Reviewers find it manageable for everyday cooking — the weight is what makes cast iron retain and distribute heat so well. Use oven mitts when handling; the cast iron handles get hot during cooking.
Yes — cast iron is naturally induction-compatible and works on all heat sources: gas, electric, induction, grill, open flame, and in the oven up to 500°F. Also compatible with metal utensils.
Hand wash only — never dishwasher. Wash with warm water and a stiff brush, dry immediately and thoroughly (finish drying on the stovetop), then apply a thin coat of oil. The more you cook with it and season it, the better the non-stick surface becomes over time.
