The BIGGEST Lodge Skillet Ever Made

When you need to feed a crowd, nothing compares to the Lodge 17" skillet—the largest cast iron skillet Lodge manufactures. This massive 19-pound powerhouse can cook for 15-20 people at once, making it essential for Scout troops, church groups, catering, family reunions, and anyone who regularly feeds large gatherings.

Built for Feeding Crowds

Scout Leader & Group Cooking Essential

This is THE skillet for Scout leaders, youth group coordinators, and anyone who regularly cooks for large groups. Fry bacon for 20 campers in one go, cook enough pancakes to feed a troop, or sear steaks for an entire patrol. The massive surface area means you cook everything at once instead of working in exhausting batches.

Catering & Event Powerhouse

Professional caterers and event cooks rely on this skillet for outdoor cooking, festivals, and large gatherings. It's perfect for church breakfasts, fundraiser dinners, tailgate parties, and family reunions. The cast iron maintains consistent heat even when cooking large quantities, ensuring everything cooks evenly.

Dual Handles Are Essential

At 19 pounds empty (and much heavier when loaded with food), the dual-handle design is crucial. The assist handle provides balanced lifting and safe maneuvering, whether you're moving it from stovetop to oven or carrying it to a serving table. Both handles make pouring off liquids manageable and safe.

Works on Large Burners & Outdoor Cooking

This skillet requires a large burner or outdoor cooking setup. It's ideal for camp stoves, outdoor burners, large commercial ranges, or cooking over campfires and coals. The massive cast iron construction provides exceptional heat retention—once heated, it stays hot even when cooking large quantities of food.

Built for Generations of Service

Like all Lodge cast iron, this skillet is built to last a lifetime and beyond. It's an investment piece for organizations, Scout troops, and families who regularly feed large groups. With proper care, it will serve for decades, becoming a trusted tool for countless memorable meals.

The Ultimate Group Cooking Tool

If you regularly cook for groups of 15 or more, this skillet will transform your cooking experience. No more cooking in endless batches while early eaters finish and late eaters wait. Cook everything at once, keep everyone together, and enjoy the gathering instead of being stuck at the stove.

Diameter: 17". Weight: 19 lbs. Pre-seasoned cast iron with dual handles. Requires large burner or outdoor cooking setup. Feeds 15-20 people. Made in USA.
