Does the Tennessee design wear off over time?

The Tennessee embossing is cast into the exterior bottom of the skillet, not printed or stamped on. It's part of the pan's structure and will not wear away with cooking or cleaning.

Can I put this skillet in the oven?

Yes. Cast iron is oven-safe at any temperature. You can start a dish on the stovetop and move it directly to the oven to finish cooking.

How do I clean and maintain the skillet?

Wash the skillet with hot water and a brush or sponge, then dry it completely. Apply a thin layer of cooking oil to the surface after each wash to maintain the seasoning. Do not put it in the dishwasher.

What is the trivet used for?

The silicone trivet protects counters, tables, and other surfaces from the hot skillet when you take it off the stove or out of the oven. It's heat-resistant and sized to fit the 12-inch pan.

Will the handle holder fit other cast iron pans?

The silicone handle holder is designed for Lodge cast iron skillets, but it will fit most cast iron pans with similar handle sizes. It provides a heat-resistant grip when moving hot cookware.

Why it's on GiftsFeed

Cast iron skillet embossed with Tennessee, plus trivet and handle holder

Most state-themed cookware treats the design as decoration, stamping it where it fades or gets scratched away. This skillet embosses Tennessee on the exterior bottom, where the design stays visible when the pan hangs or sits out, but never touches food or wears down from cooking. The bundle includes the trivet and handle holder you'd buy separately anyway, so the skillet can go straight from box to stovetop. It makes sense for anyone who cooks with cast iron regularly and wants a pan that acknowledges where it—and they—come from.

Good gift when

People who want cookware made in the state they live in
Anyone building a collection of reliable everyday skillets

The details

This set pairs a 12-inch cast iron skillet embossed with Tennessee with a 7-inch silicone trivet and silicone handle holder, both in orange. The pan arrives pre-seasoned and ready to use, manufactured in Tennessee.

Cast iron delivers even heat retention across the cooking surface. The seasoning creates a naturally nonstick layer that improves with use. You can move the skillet from stovetop to oven without switching pans, and the embossed design sits on the exterior bottom, visible when the pan hangs or rests on the trivet.

The silicone trivet protects counters and tables from hot cookware. The handle holder shields your hand when you're moving the pan during cooking or serving. Both accessories are heat-resistant and match in color.

The skillet works on gas, electric, induction, and over campfires. It handles searing, frying, baking, and roasting. Season it after washing to maintain the nonstick surface, and it will last for decades of daily cooking.
