Cold weather means boots and scarves and comfort food. The Lodge Cast Iron Covered Skillet is perfect for making Baked Macaroni and Cheese, frying chicken, or even Sweet Potato Cornbread to go along with chili. Cast iron retains heat beautifully and will stay hotter longer than a regular pan which is perfect when you want seconds of the mac and cheese. When the warmer weather finally does arrive, the Lodge Cast Iron Covered Skillet will work just as well over an open fire as it does in the oven and on the stovetop.
