    Stargazer Cast Iron 10.5-Inch Skillet

    Right Down the Middle

    The Stargazer 10.5-Inch Cast Iron Skillet is the perfect everyday pan when cooking for two. Thoughtfully sized and beautifully balanced, this medium skillet is ideal for two burger patties, a single omelet, or a skillet cornbread — comparable to a classic vintage size #8 cast iron pan.

    Proudly American-made, this skillet is engineered for performance, comfort, and longevity. Its smooth cooking surface delivers exceptional heat retention, while the stay-cool handle and drip-free flared rim make everyday cooking easier and cleaner.

    Why You’ll Love It

    • Made in the USA

    • 10.5-inch cooking surface — ideal for everyday meals

    • Stay-cool handle for better control

    • Flared rim for clean, drip-free pouring

    • Designed for even heating and natural non-stick performance

    • Built to last a lifetime (and beyond)

    Seasoned or Bare — Your Choice

    Choose the finish that fits your cooking style:

    • Seasoned Skillet: Pre-seasoned with Stargazer’s signature blend of canola, grapeseed, and sunflower oils, ready to cook right out of the box.

    • Bare Skillet: Unseasoned cast iron for those who prefer to build their own seasoning layers from scratch.

    Understanding Seasoning

    Seasoning is a natural, protective layer of polymerized oil that coats cast iron to prevent rust and create a naturally non-stick surface. With regular cooking, seasoning improves over time and can always be refreshed.

    Stargazer recommends high smoke-point oils such as grapeseed or sunflower oil for best results.

    Maintenance Seasoning (After Regular Use)

    Performed after cooking and cleaning:

    1. Preheat your skillet on the stovetop over low heat for 5–10 minutes

    2. Wipe a very thin layer of oil onto the cooking surface

    3. Heat for another 5–10 minutes, until the oil appears dry

    Full Seasoning (As Needed)

    Recommended periodically or if bare iron or rust appears:

    1. Preheat oven to 225°F

    2. Wash and dry skillet completely

    3. Place skillet in oven for 10 minutes, then remove

    4. Apply a thin coat of oil inside, outside, and handle, wiping off all excess

    5. Return skillet to oven upside down, increase temperature to 475°F, and bake for 1 hour

    6. Turn off oven and allow skillet to cool

    For bare cast iron, 2–3 seasoning layers are recommended.

    An Heirloom-Quality Cast Iron Skillet

    Built for daily use and designed to improve with time, the Stargazer 10.5-Inch Cast Iron Skillet is a modern classic — crafted for serious cooks who value American-made quality, thoughtful design, and cookware that lasts for generations.

    Care Instructions
    • Preheat your cast iron to ensure even heating and promote non-stick cooking. We recommend 3-5 minutes on low heat before turning up the temperature or adding any food.
    • Use a burner that closely matches the size of the skillet.
    • Acidic ingredients like wine and tomato sauce can be rough on the seasoning. If you do lose some seasoning, no problem, you can easily touch it up later.

    Clean:
    After you've finished cooking, follow these steps to ensure you've got a clean and dry skillet before putting it away.

    1. Allow your skillet to cool.
    2. Place it in the sink under hot running water. Add a small amount of gentle dish soap if you like.
    3. Scrub away food debris with a soft sponge or dish brush and rinse thoroughly. Avoid abrasive cleaners and scouring pads.
    4. Dry your skillet immediately and completely.
    5. Place your skillet back on low heat for a few minutes to be sure its dry.

    What Makes Stargazer Cast Iron Special To Us

    Stargazer Cast Iron was founded in 2015 by designer Peter Huntley, who became frustrated with declining quality in modern cookware and set out to reimagine cast iron with better design and real American manufacturing. Starting with 21 prototypes and early runs from his garage, he perfected a smooth, micro-textured cooking surface and thoughtful features like a stay-cool handle and drip-free rim. Today, every piece is designed, finished, and shipped from Allentown, Pennsylvania, honoring American casting traditions while innovating for modern kitchens. We love Stargazer because it stands for true American craftsmanship, thoughtful design, and cookware built for generations.

    Stargazer Cast Iron FAQs

    What products does Stargazer Cast Iron offer?

    Stargazer makes American-made cast iron skillets and braisers in key sizes (e.g., 10.5″, 12″, 13.5″), plus accessories like lids—each with a smooth, precision-finished cooking surface.

    All Stargazer cookware is cast, finished, seasoned, and shipped in the United States, with final hand finishing and inspection done at their Pennsylvania facility.

    What makes Stargazer cast iron different from traditional cookware?
