The 10-inch Wasatch skillet from Backcountry Iron is oven-safe and features a smooth, polished cooking surface. Compared to other skillets, our heavy-weight cast iron offers superior heat retention. Inspired by the legendary pans of the past, like Griswold and Wagner, the Wasatch skillet reclaims the old-world glory of polished cast iron. These smooth cast iron pans will be constant companions, from your kitchen to the great outdoors, and can be passed down through generations.

Our team has built upon the usability of our standard cookware, adding more features to create a pan worth the hype. We've milled the cooking surface, incorporated a deep heat ring, and added hefty handles for easy lifting. Compared to brands like Le Creuset, Staub, Field, Smithey, Finex, and Stargazer, we believe our Wasatch skillet has turned out great.

Backcountry Iron is a small, artisan company of foodies, home cooks, and professional chefs. Our passion for great food led us to create our own cast iron cookware, as its versatility, heat retention, and ease of use made it an obvious choice. We strive to design and manufacture timeless, high-quality cast iron cookware that will last for generations.

The Backcountry Iron 10.25-inch smooth cast iron heirloom takes inspiration from the classic hand-me-downs of old, like the legendary polished cast iron pans made by Wagner and Griswold. The Wasatch skillet seeks to recapture the former glory of vintage cast iron in the modern day. The machined cooking surface and sides, paired with a timeless design, create a unique skillet that will leave you speechless.

Smooth cast iron provides a more uniform cooking surface that holds an excellent seasoning. Easy release properties keep food from sticking and create a better sear with exceptional browning – similar to enameled cast iron. This skillet is great for single or two-person dishes, pies and cakes, and can even fit a whole chicken!

Our Wasatch cast iron skillets have a glossy cooking surface that can be used with electric, induction, or gas stovetops. Toss it in the oven, and even place it on campfires like an outdoorsman. It will retain heat longer and more evenly than other cast iron skillets.

Wasatch pans are quadruple-seasoned with vegetable and grape seed oil, giving them a signature bronze coloring. Cast iron can rust, so keep it out of the dishwasher, do not soak overnight, and air dry. Use warm water and scrape off any stuck food with a flat utensil. You can also lightly polish the cooking surface with a stainless steel chainmail scrubber for a smooth patina. Wipe dry immediately after cleaning and apply a new layer of oil to protect from rust.

Our heavyweight cast iron skillets are perfect for searing, browning, braising, roasting, or frying meals and gravies alike.
