My 20 year old cast iron pan was a gift I got 6 years ago, handed down from my wife's grandma. This pan is a beast! I use it for so many things! I love using it for steak and fried chicken.

It's a toss-up between my cast iron skillet and dishwasher (but not together - I'm not allowed to put the skillet in there ). lol
