Why? Because the durable material, if treated properly, lasts for decades, and better yet, it’s a handy vessel for a near-limitless list of dishes, from pizza to shakshuka. Start your collection with this Lodge cast iron skillet. Lodge is known for its near-indestructible cast iron cookware, and this 15-inch skillet can fit big helpings of cornbread, Cornish hens, four fried eggs, and more. The fact that it's heavy is a small price to pay for its versatility. Cast iron can also be used in the oven, on the grill, even over open flames, and because it retains heat so well, it’s particularly handy for frying and roasting. Commercial Chef 6.5-Inch Skillet Amazon Buy on Amazon $15 $10 A mini cast iron skillet is just as useful as the larger ones, and this Commercial Chef 6.5-inch skillet is the perfect option. Shareable portions of egg dishes like omelets and frittatas can be prepared in this pan, which is only $10 right now. And because cast iron is so good at creating a golden crisp exterior on all kinds of dishes, it can also be used to sear single pork chops or chicken breasts. Another benefit is that it's lighter and smaller than other skillets, so it's easy to take on camping trips as a reliable way to cook over a fire. Lodge 10.25-Inch Cast Iron Skillet, $20 (originally $34) Cuisinel 12-Inch Cast Iron Skillet, $35 (originally $40) Mercer Culinary 10.25-Inch Cast Iron Skillet, $16 (originally $20) Commercial Chef 6.5-Inch Skillet, $10 (originally $15) Lodge 12-Inch Cast Iron Pan, $25 (originally $44) Amazon Best Cast Iron Dutch Oven and Pot Deals A cast iron Dutch oven is a great investment because if you take care of it properly, it could last for decades without ever needing to be replaced or repaired. This Staub 5.5-quart cocotte delivers gourmet one-pot meals. Thanks to its tight-fitting lid, moisture stays locked inside the pot, so the finished product is never dry. It’s also oven safe up to 900°F, so it can go straight from the stove to the oven, and then directly onto your dinner table — cutting down on time, effort, and the number of dishes you have to do at the end of the night. Another feature that makes this cocotte so useful is that the enamel interior is naturally nonstick which means less wasted food stuck to the inside of the pot, and no scrubbing it clean after you’re done. Le Creuset 2.25-Quart Enameled Cast Iron Signature Braiser Amazon Buy on Amazon $290 $202 One reason that cast iron is so beloved is that it provides steady, continuous heat to ingredients as they cook. That feature comes especially in handy with this Le Creuset braiser, which is designed to cook beef short ribs, chicken thighs, and other cuts of meat until tender and juicy. The wide base allows you to sear chicken and pork without overcrowding the pan, and the domed lid circulates moisture — while also enhancing surface area, perfect forbaking biscuits and cinnamon rolls. And if that wasn’t enough, it’s also an elegant serving dish for casseroles and roasted vegetables. Le Creuset cookware rarely goes on sale, so you’ll want to grab this braiser while it's still discounted.

A nifty piece of cookware like this Lodge square grill pan can be used both indoors and outdoors. It’s 45% off, and is ideal for searing steak and getting a nice char of corn on the cob because of its built-in ridges. You can also frill it with carrots, red peppers, and zucchini, and pop it in the oven for perfect roasted vegetables. One shopper wrote that “it's perfect if you are cooking a single portion of anything.” Nordic Ware Two Burner Griddle Amazon Buy on Amazon $36 $27 If you love to make breakfast every morning, especially if you have a big family or love to host brunch, you need a griddle. This Nordic Ware griddle is only $27, and it spans two burners. Measuring 17.4 by 10.3 inches, it offers plenty of space for pancakes, bacon, and even a few fried eggs — all at the same time.
