Let’s face it. If your kitchen had just one pan, one single tool to accomplish any cooking concoction you dare to dream, it should be a pretty awesome one, right? The chosen one, the golden child, the king of the ring, the one true pan to rule them all! It should be a cast-iron skillet!

Cast-iron cookware is a proven hero, never goes out of style, and cannot be destroyed despite how you feel about yourself as a home cook. In this book, Howie Southworth and Greg Matza best friends and adventurous home cooks share one hundred recipes for cooking in a skillet on the stovetop or outdoors on a grill or campfire. Here you’ll find easy-to-follow recipes for:

Spinach and cheddar frittata
Cajun biscuits and gravy
Heavy metal pizza
Creole jambalaya
Bacon fried steak
Blackened catfish
Crispy mac and cheese
Peach cobbler
Campfire taquitos
And more!
