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
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.
Where are Stargazer products made?
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?
Unlike rough or “heritage textured” cast iron, Stargazer skillets are CNC machined and hand-finished to achieve a smooth, micro-textured surface that holds seasoning without sticking and is easier to clean.
Are Stargazer skillets ready to use right out of the box?
Yes — seasoned versions arrive with two coats of natural oil seasoning (canola, grapeseed, sunflower), ready to cook immediately. Bare options are also available for custom seasoning.
Can Stargazer cast iron be used on all heat sources?
Yes — cast iron cookware is safe for gas, electric, induction, oven, grill, or open fire use—perfect for everything from searing and frying to baking.
Are these pieces good for gifting or everyday cooking?
Absolutely. With American-made quality, thoughtful design, and durable performance, Stargazer cast iron makes a lasting gift and a workhorse in every kitchen.
