Professional grade, lifetime quality
Long lasting quality starts with the best materials and our expert manufacturers. With the right upkeep and maintenance, our Carbon Steel cookware is designed to last generations.
Long before we collaborated on Fishing Knives and Roasting Pans, Tom mentioned this specific Carbon Steel Frying Pan a lot—almost enough to make us jealous, and definitely enough to make us curious. That led us first to a 3D printer, where we scanned Tom’s perfect pan, undoing 30 years worth of James Beard Award-winning cooking and hard-earned seasoning, to finally (re)create Tom’s Pan.
Our Carbon Steel combines the heat retention of Cast Iron with the control and maneuverability of Stainless Clad, resulting in a natural non stick alternative. We stamp Carbon Steel into a thin disc that’s half the weight of cast iron but every bit as durable—so it seasons faster, responds quicker, and is rugged enough for your grill or open flame.
We made only 1,000 of these Limited-Edition 11” Seasoned Carbon Steel Frying Pans, and each pan will be stamped with a unique serial number along the handle. This pan clocks in at 2.5mm thick—compared to our standard 2.0mm—to add extra heft, quality, and durability. The 100% brass handle is long and easy to reach, even from the back of the oven. Brass develops its own unique patina and character over time, evolving alongside the Pan’s seasoning.
