From the manufacturer
Used for warming butter, melting cheese, scalding milk or heating syrup
Use & Care:
While the skillet comes pre-seasoned to prevent food from sticking, it works best when sprayed or lightly coated with vegetable oil before use. After cooking, we recommend cleaning with a stiff nylon brush and hot water. Using soap or the dishwasher is not recommended, and harsh detergents should never be used. Towel dry immediately cleaning and apply a light coating of oil to utensil while it is still warm.
Lodge LMP3 Pre-Seasoned Cast-Iron Melting Pot
Pre-seasoned skillet is ready-to-use right out of the box
The black patina given to the cookware by the factory seasoning process is, in fact, vegetable oil that has been baked into a piece of cookware that has emerged from an individual sand mold. This coating of oil is a functional application and not a cosmetic application. The cookware is hanging as it rides through the electrostatic sprayer and commercial conveyer ovens at very high temperatures. This allows the oil to penetrate deeply into the pores of the iron which creates an easy release finish. As a result of this process, you may see a blister or bubble of oil at the southern-most point or at the end of the handle of the cookware piece. If visible, it will rub or flake off with your finger, leaving a brown spot. Don’t worry, it’s not rust but a seasoned spot that is brown, indicative of the varnish stage of seasoning. As a matter of fact, this is the color of home seasoned iron until it has been used several times. The brown spot will turn black with use.

Product Description
Perfect for warming butter, melting cheese, scalding milk or heating syrup. Versatile for stovetop, oven or BBQ grill. Sure to become your favorite pot for smaller portions of sauce. 15 oz capacity. Seasoned and ready to use. Measures: 9.313" L x 5.438" W x 2.875" H. Cast iron loves a campfire, a stovetop, or an oven, and can slow-cook foods without scorching. It retains heat well so you can sear meat at higher temperatures and will keep your delicious meals warm for a long time. Whether used in a kitchen or camp, theses virtually indestructible cookware should last for generations. Made of cast iron, this pot evenly distributes heat from the bottom through the sidewalls. Sporting a stylish black color, the cast iron pot looks good in most kitchens and it doubles up as an excellent source of nutritional iron. Cast Iron, like your grandmother used, still ranks as one of the best cooking utensils ever made. It gives you a nearly non-stick surface, without the possible harmful fumes generated by preheating chemically treated nonstick cookware. The American-based company, Lodge, has been fine-tuning its construction of rugged, cast-iron cookware for more than a century.

This is NOT a pot for cooking soup. It holds just over 1 cup, and has a very small base so it might be too small for most gas stovetops. It works great on my electric stovetop, and sat perfectly on the side of my gas grill. It might not be the most useful tool in my cast-iron arsenal, but it is one of the cutest and is very fun to use.
It you plan to use it for something like cheese on the first use, I recommend seasoning it with the oil of your choice twice, That way, It's easy to clean, even melted cheese just wipes right out.
I see some of the pictures showing the pan falling off of the stove. OK people, get a grip. Center the thing and watch it. It’s a unique size, perfect for a lot of things, but you might actually have to pay attention.
It is sturdy, it has more depth to it than I had anticipated, the iron seems even thicker than I had hoped it would be and it is smooth and as far as iron is smooth. It’s an impressive piece especially for that Price!!!!!
- which is a good thing. It is a heavy little pot and must be handled with care - same as with a bigger pan. I am very pleased with my purchase and will be ordering another for the other house we own.
