We rated 20 models on heat retention, even cooking and easy cleanup. These four made their mark.
BEST ENAMELED PAN
Le Creuset 10.25-Inch Enameled Cast Iron Signature Square Skillet Grill Pan, $176
amazon.com
The popular French brand's signature enamel-coated cast iron comes in 11 vibrant colors. It's also reliably nonstick and a breeze to clean, making it a versatile piece of cookware and a worthy investment.
BEST COMPACT OPTION
Cuisinart Chef's Classic 9.25-Inch Square Grill Pan, $40
target.com
On the smaller side of the pans we tried, this model offers a "solid" low-cost option for tighter spaces. Testers also noted that its ridges are closer together than some others, allowing for effective evaporation.
BEST DESIGN
Finex 10-Inch Cast Iron Grill Pan, $200
wayfair.com
This "unconventional" model features a stainless steel handle on one corner, making it easy to pour off liquids while cooking. A pre-seasoned finish keeps items from sticking, and testers also liked the well-defined ridges that keep food out of moisture in the bottom of the pan, preventing sogginess.
BEST OVERALL
Lodge Seasoned Cast Iron Square Grill Pan, $22
amazon.com
A skillet surprise: Our testers' all-around favorite was *also* the most affordable -- an "absolute workhorse" that distributes heat evenly and flips food easily, thanks to outward-sloping sides. And everything from pork chops to grilled cheese came out with perfect sear marks.
THIS ONE HAS RACHAEL'S STAMP OF APPROVAL!
Rachael Ray Cucina 11-Inch Square Deep Grill Pan, $50
rachaelray.com
This anodized-aluminum grill pan -- part of the daytime host and cookbook author's line -- is oven-safe up to 400 degrees. It also features high sides to reduce messy grease splatter. |
